I've been tipped off.

If you've earmarked a couple of wines that you fancy, it could be worth waiting till next Wednesday, 4th November.
If my tipster is wrong, you've lost nothing but time. Check the price of the ones you want now, just incase there's a 50p hike on the bottle price the night before the campaign :wink: Not that you can do much about it ! Getting in early on the Wednesday can earn a store double bubble, (not often though) * if they are slow on ticket removal.

* You might have to employ your finest and most authorative debating skills though - with tact and diplomacy

cheers

Thanks for the heads up dunc
I've got someone's off vouchers expiring on 8th so it's very good timing
That said I went and bought some prosecco and a few bottle of marques casa concha Cabernet at Sainsburys today. Both double disco'd

It's on in the grocery site. Not yet on the cellar site.

I always use the grocery one as they do 2 hr slots (which the cellar does not).

You can even get some double dips there which is fairly uncommon for WR

Ba, I took a look at the groceries site. I have to say I'm not a fan
The cellar site has a wider range available (ie no Musar available in the grocery site). The cellar has 1168 vs 718 on groceries, as is the case at Tesco and Asda so that's to be expected and is not really an issue other than possibly missing out on something nice (but probably more expensive/premium wine I couldn't afford)
My main bugbear however is the search categories on the left of the drinks section (it doesn't seem to filter just wine in the same way that The other grocery sites do) don't seem to cover all their wines. Eg wine by type = 718, wine by country = 543, wine by grape = 357. So if I wanted to search by grape type I'm only seeing 50% of the total wine available ? How does that work??

On a positive note I think there are a few double discos available on groceries that aren't in store or on the cellar site. However there were more available yesterday if you timed it right

And Tesco! Yet their 9.95 Champagne was conspicous by its total absence over a an Out of Stock sign. No doubt it'll return when the 25% off deal ends :)

No doubt pontac <rolls eyes>

Waitrose in store offer only required 3 bottle purchase btw folks. That one runs to 23rd Aug. No double dips available as usual unlike at Sainsburys

Ha HA!!

Apologies to Tesco.

Went back to Tesco today and they had 6 n the shelf. So I took them. Champagne for £7.46. And its not at all bad, especially if you give it some bottle age.

Yep, I've had 2 lots from Sains, and 2 from W/R.

Haven't seen any Tesco though
