Double Airmiles with Tesco until 03/10

[joolz1910]

Hi, I've just got an email from Tesco saying that they are doubling the amount of airmiles you get with the Clubcard vouchers. The offer is on until March 09 and I thought there might be people considering flights to CDG who might want to check this out! I think its £2.50 of vouchers = 120 miles. It's not yet come up on the website.

Just to add it has to be a new Airmiles account.

I used Tesco Clubcard and Airmiles for our trip in March and 4 flights from local airport cost me around £200 in Tesco vouchers so with the new deal you could half that.
It's a good deal and I would be more than a little annoyed by the "brand new customers only" offer, if it weren't for the fact that Topps Tiles have just joined Tesco Clubcard deals for a limited period and I've just worked out I can have new laminate flooring almost right through the house, courtesy of Tesco.

There must be a way around the 'new customers only'. Perhaps if you open another account in a family member's name and booked using their name but your vouchers? I know with holidays you can use other people's vouchers as long as they are part of the travelling party.

Stop it Juliette, I'm not even going to think about it, we desperately need the flooring

I have a household airmiles account at the moment, so can't see a way around it anyway, over on another forum I visit I'm sure someone will come up with a way around it.

On the one hand, I hate flying and much prefer Eurostar or Eurotunnel

On the other hand...........can't.......resist........bargains.......

You can book Eurostar through Airmiles, don't have to fly......and book DLRP too.

Wow I never knew that, thanks, I don't like flying either so this is great, off to have a look .........

Deal now live and it seems that it doesn't have to be a new account, but it's only applicable to those who haven't transferred clubcard vouchers to airmiles before, I have and DS has but OH hasn't so I think I could put the CC vouchers I've got through his Tesco account and then add his account to the household account as I don't think I've added him yet and I have already got 300 miles in the account.
But then I wouldn't get my flooring

 

[MummyMinnie]

I've had a look and we've definitely got enough for the Eurostar but you have to ring for a quote for Disney hotels so will wait until later when have more time.

Whoo hooo thanks

This is a good deal. Hope I get a Tesco voucher soon to swap over

 

[joolz1910]

I hope someone gets cheap travel out of this.

Come on Jill - new flooring or DLRP? Are you going to be able to reminisce over the great memories of getting your flooring?

I've been avidly watching the Disney website for prices for May 2010 to be released and they were available on Monday (prob came out on 1 Nov).

I phoned Airmiles expecting them to have the dates available but apparently they don't yet and aren't expecting to be able to book beyond April 2010 until late December/January.

I wondered if there was any rationale between airmiles and £'s? Does anyone know *** then I can work out a rough estimate for when we want to go.

Many thanks.

 

[joolz1910]

You need 1000 miles for an adult Eurostar and 750 miles for one flight to CDG. Each £2.50 voucher gets you 120 miles. I think that's right!
