Those bloody tescos vouchers...spend £30 and get £3 off. My weekly shop in Lidl is lesss than that. I never spend £30 in tescos as id get less for my cash. I only go in for odds and ends.
Or get 25% off if you spend 60 quid in New Look. Agggrrr...i only want a vest top and jeans.

It's like the loyalty cards. You get so many points per £1 but when you go to spend them they're only worth 1p or less. Shock

I used to think this about Boots, I would sooner just use Wilkos.

The Boots ones always go in the bin. I rarely buy anything in there but I make a small make up purchase and get a voucher for money off if I spend £40.

I get most toiletries from Savers which is cheap as chips. Just have to dodge the hard sell at the till.

Upstairs next to juice bar xxx

Lol not good to text and post simultaneously Blush

I get £8 off £40 vouchers from waitrose and have never managed to spend less than £70 trying to ensure I’ve reached £40 Grin

But for the people who do spend more than £30? Great idea. Incentives will always suit one person more than another. I have no interest in a free cup of coffee from McDonald's after I buy 6 because I never buy the stuff, but some people will buy regularly so get the benefit.

Anyone want to join me at the juice bar?!

RubbingHimSweetly · 27/08/2019 18:59

Plasebeafleabite that depends, do I get a free juice after I've bought 17 ?

Do they have apple, carrot and ginger?
