We tend to check supermarket offers on the net and buy our merlot wines wherever the bargains are, assume sainsburys and waitrose have stopped as well, but again have not noticed.
As an aside, when shopping last week a Turner Road Merlot that sold for over £10 a bottle, but was often on offer at half price, was being sold for £5.24 not on offer. Checked with the manager of the department, he stated that from the beginning of October, if they had an offer running for more than four weeks then by law the offer price had to become the actual price. Confusing but possibly related.
) experience, Jonty, "half-price" wine from Tesco was only ever worth the lower price anyway. Imo those offers were little more than a scam. M&S' occasional 25% off the whole range (6 bottles or more) is a much better, more genuine deal overall, I believe. Just make sure you buy enough to last you until the next offer.

Have to agree here, just before Christmas we bought 24 bottles of Wolf Blass Cabernet Shiraz for £4.49 a bottle... Normally upwards of £8.50 bottle.. Some really good dealsDeefitz wrote:We have just started ordering our wine from Morrisonscellar they have some good deals and free delivery.

Reminds me of an experience on Ryanair. We arrived late on one flight, and the self-celebratory trumpeting about flights arriving on time was strangely lacking! I did devise an alternative announcement that they could make, which went along the lines of "Oh feck...we're late again", in an Irish accent - accompanied by an out of tune trumpet.david63 wrote:Has anyone else noticed that the 5% discount on six bottles of wine from Tesco is no more?
I was looking at my receipt today and noticed that I had not received the discount (not the end of the world - I know) so sent an email to enquire about it. Apparently it stopped on the 7th October last year.
I bet they make more noise about its return than they did about it stopping
Don't you remember Kaymar they cancelled my Christmas order just before Christmas last year. A system error they said. I have a long memory and I don't forgive easily. I'm sure they knew how I felt. Shoprite is getting all my business now.kaymar wrote:emjay45 wrote:I am still boycotting Tesco.
Oh, dear, have they upset you in some way, Mary Jane? Do they realise how dangerous that can be?

Absolutely right, I wouldn't go back either, and you're also right, Shopright are OK, especially with the Waitrose lines which they carry.
