Tesco clubcard vouchers....

[alibeau]

I wonder if anyone could give me a bit of advice pls

I currently have £168 of Teco clubcard vouchers and am wondering how I can best use them towards the cost of a trip. Our next trip is Easter 2011 so still plenty of time to keep collecting the vouchers. We have already paid for flights etc so I am thinking that I could convert the vouchers into Virgin Holiday vouchers and then use those VH vouchers to buy our Disney park tickets

But.....

I was thinking that we would go for annual passes for our next trip sooo...

If the first part of my question IS possible which tickets would I be best to buy in terms of being able to upgrade them to a 'basic' annual pass and is this even possible

Hope you are still with me and hope someone can help

Thanks guys

I don't think tickets only works unless you get a verrry cooperative CS person.

It's very hard to make it worth while using Tesco on Virgin unless you are paying off a serious chunk of a full holiday.

We had nearly £500 saved up planning on spending them on something bigger like a holiday etc and it just doesn't stack up as VH is sooooo much more expensive than DIY.

What we do now is convert them to meal or day out vouchers and put the money we would have spent into a jar. That gives us cash to spend on DIY holidays. Highly recommend it as long as you don't pilfer from the jar!

They won't let you use the vouchers for just tickets, you have to book accomodation and flights as a package to use the vouchers with VH.

no uk tickets can be upgraded to annual passes either.

I've also tried to use vouchers twice for VH but as I get a FF discount and you can't use with tesco vouchers it's never been worthwhile.

I'm hoping to use mine to booked 2 seperate Caravan hols next year to break the year up before going back in October. The rest I will convert to pizza Express vouchers!

You can also exchange your clubcard vouchers for Cosmos Holiday rewards, who can book a Flydrive only.

However, if you are not aware, from 6th December, the value of rewards is being reduced from 4 x voucher value to 3 x voucher value. At the same time, max value of Cosmos tokens allowed per person will reduce from £400 to £300, and VH will reduce from £700 to £525.

Thanks for all the info guys

Plan B then I guess - spend the vouchers on myself

Thanks

You could buy clothes in Tesco for your holiday with the vouchers and that doubles the amount at the moment.

Or you could use the vouchers to stay at the Hilton at Gatwick the night before the flight.

Convert to Airmiles?

Merlin Passes?

The deals aren't as good as they used to be.

And the deals will get worse after 6th of December.

As already stated, unless yoyu've got a good pile of vouchers it isn't really worth it. We have vouchers worth £2950.00 ready to pay off a future holiday - we intend booking by 30th of November and providing the next Virgin Florida brochure comes out in the next few weeks, we will book for February 2012.
