    What feckin BS - just rang customer service to check & no , nutgrove won't accept them - the reason she gave was that it's because they price-match !!! raging,as I wanted to get some homewares stuff there...do Tesco Dundrum take them?

    The Tesco in Rathfarnham shopping centre has signs up all over saying that they do accept the competitors vouchers

    Yep, and it says it on their advert in yesterdays paper too

    It's either or. Minimum spend is €50, with €10 off your total.

    I rang them (the helpline, who then rang through to store) this morning after reading this on another forum

    Tesco Nutgrove won't accept them. Apparently staff tills were short last night as they had accepted these, the girl at the till said there was uproar there yesterday evening. I checked again with the manager and was told they were instructed not to accept them.

    Awesome news more money off my lidl shop.

    Just checking as i never buy any newspapers..
    The voucher will also be in Saturdays Sun newspaper right ?

    Thanks a mill


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,230 ✭✭✭T-Maxx


    I'm really blowing the budget with all these Aldi & Lidl vouchers lately.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 501 ✭✭✭198321


    I dont see Tesco running the offer of accepting those for long as I'm sure they are loosing a lot. But than if they cancel it, I'll be running to Lidl or Aldi. On the other hand Lidl or Aldi are paying to have coupons in newspaper and people are going to Tesco with them .. it's little bit ridiculous. Good for us (customers) tho .. gives us options.

    It's just one €10 off €50 Lidl voucher valid until Easter Saturday in tomorrow's Sun and Sunday's Sindo; i.e. basically a reprint of the second of last weekend's vouchers.

    Oops, just saw the other thread!

    Aldi voucher to be in sunday world


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,100 ✭✭✭johndaman66


    Used my Aldi voucher in Tesco this evening....fantastic.

    Was trying to keep track of the subtotal as I did the shopping but lost count. Thought I'd be struggling to make the €50. It just got me thinking if you were someway off the €50 and you got something you didn't need to bring you over and get the €10 off. Then take it back to customer services and ask for your money back on it as the wife had picked it up unknown to you.

    Wouldn't normally be into pulling them kind of stunts but Tesco pull enough fast ones themselves so... I'm most likely a bit naive in thinking one would pull it off anyways.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,797 ✭✭✭sweetie

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,063 ✭✭✭Greenmachine


    Got a huge shop in lidl. €51.14 - €10.00 off.
    I have left tesco before with two bags worth for €70.

    A neighbour just texted me to say Tesco have brought back the 25%-off-6-bottles-of-wine promotion, as I figured they would in the lead-up to Easter. Compound bargain alert! :D

    6 x €5.99 (for instance) = €35.94 —25% = €26.96
    Same again.........................................+ €26.96
    ........................................................... €53.92
    €10 off = €43.92 for 12 bottles originally costing €71.88 = 38.9% combined saving

    And I left Dunnes with one tiny bag worth of €100 (bottle of whiskey). Does it mean Dunnes is the most expensive?

    You could have got 100 large bags of Dunnes crisps for that.


    Two trolley loads. :p

    Is there 2 lidl vouchers in the Indo today? What pages are they on? Gona get my mom to cut them out and send them in post for price of a stamp instead of buying paper.
    I bought the Indo yesterday for the Aldi voucher, but there's not 1 page in the Sindo I would read.

    Mine was just regular groceries in both cases. Meat veg, porridge, pasta, rice etc.

    Will this be the last of the vouchers.
    Or should we expect another one next weekend ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 990 ✭✭✭timetogo


    I went into Aldi this weekend, filled a trolley up with stuff that'll last a while. Rocked up to the counter, unloaded onto the conveyer and handed in my voucher. Aaaaaaaaaah. I always get Aldi & Lidl confused. Ah well it was still good value. Will do the same next weekend in Lidl, Lidl, Lidl.

    Did you ask them if they would take the coupon? I was curious if anyone used the Lidl coupon in Aldi or vice versa.

    I used a Lidl coupon successfully at Tesco on Saturday. I bought €20 top-up for Vodafone and €30 additional items. The cashier reminded me that there were more coupons in Sat and Sun papers and gushed about how great the coupons were. She told me that she had used them herself at Tesco to buy top-up for her phone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 852 ✭✭✭hillbloom


    I dont think you can use the ALDI voucher in LIDL or vise versa. Its only Tesco that are accepting vouchers from Aldi, Lidl, Dunnes & S/Valu. Why cant Tesco issue their own vouchers. They want the custom without any cost of advertising. Its a very mean way of doing it!!!

    Nah. They weren't taking the coupon. She found it funny though :p

    As a little aside and not wanting to drag this OT I was in an Aldi store last year and got speaking to a manager about a little problem I had. Anyhow in the course of the conversation I asked was it true that Aldi and Lidl were owned by 2 brothers who had fallen out.......this story has been doing the rounds for years now.

    He told me that there was absolutely no connection between the owners of the respective stores.

    However he did state that where the story probably originated was that Aldi is owned by 2 brothers and when they set about opening stores here in Ireland they had a a bit of a disagreement regarding the selling of cigarettes. One brother was in favour of it and the other totally opposed to it so what happened was that one brother now has full charge of the stores in Ireland where the old weed is not sold and the other looks after the stores in the UK where they do sell fags.

    How much of that is true I have no idea but as I said it came from a store manager.

    Anyhow, I thought I would share the above story and apologies for taking this off topic. :)

    Think that story may have it's roots in the Puma/Adidas German brothers story. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adidas

    Aldi stands for Albrecht Discount.

    The Albrecht brothers started the company.

    Yes, there was a dispute, over selling cigarettes.

    That's why you now have Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,137 ✭✭✭✭Geuze


    This is the Aldi Nord logo - their shops are in DK, FR, BE, NL, etc.

    Ireland is part of Aldi-Sud.

    Slightly off but more or less correct.


    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldi

    Aldi (Albrecht-Diskont) was started by two brothers who did indeed fall out over cigarettes and split the stores into Aldi Sud (what you have in Ireland) and Aldi Nord (France, Benelux and Iberian countries).

    What if any papers have the vouchers this weekend ??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 401 ✭✭irishbuzz


    They usually run these vouchers for a few weeks in the lead up to a big weekend i.e. into Christmas and into Easter. I suspect that's the last of them for another while (would be happily wrong).

    Heres hoping you're wrong.

    But, I know that this can't last for to long more


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭CH3OH


    This is specific to the Arklow and Greystones LIDL stores

    Wicklow town store closed for refurbishment, so they put these vouchers in the local paper Wicklow People (paper cost €2)

    20% off a €50 spend for the next 6 weeks

    I used one this morning and got some nice Fillet Steak on offer reduced from €5,99 to €3,99 for 200 g
    310211.jpg



    I'm presuming Tesco Arklow /greystones will take them as well.

    Interesteing, no good to me I'm afraid as not in the area, but does that mean that the Tescos in the area will accept them as well?

    would be interested in getting some myself if anyone has a spare newspaper and trying them in my local Tesco


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,875 ✭✭✭kn


    They are closing the Lidl in Tralee for 6 weeks for refurb as well later in the month. I guess we will see these offers then as well (and take them to Tesco.... :)).
