Hi all, I've just got the pink Garmin forerunner 10 and it's great. I used my Tesco vouchers to get mine using the Tesco Boost scheme. It should have been £99.00, but had £10.00 off. I used my vouchers double their value on the scheme, so the watch cost me £30.00! Well worth considering doing this if anyone shops at Tesco.

What a bargain ! I paid £119 for mine on amazon . What is this voucher thing at tesco I shop there occasionally , I have hear of the points but not vouchers . .

I usually do my main shop at Asda, but our local shop is a Tesco Express, so I still spend there quite a lot. You know how they send you Clubcard vouchers? I'm always losing those. You can login on the Clubcard deals site to see how many vouchers you've got to spend. Then you go on login on the tesco Direct site and in some departments you can 'boost' the value of your clubcard vouchers to double them. Then you just checkout in the normal way, and at the checkout, there's an option to add your vouchers and they are deducted off the total. I collected from my local tesco so didn't even need to pay postage. It was an amazing deal. I was going to ask my OH for a running watch for Xmas, but this deal was too good to wait.

Thanks , I'll look into that , I don't even have membership for anything like that , I'm going to join . Keep saying I will & never get round to it . I'm like you use asdas but go to tesco express a lot on my way home from work .

Definitely get the Clubcard, no junk mail or anything like that just money off vouchers. I've used them for all sorts of things, even holidays :-)

Thanks for this. I had been waiting for this because I missed the last one. Popped into Tesco last night & exchanged my vouchers. Brilliant. The offer on GPS watches is on for the build up to Christmas only. Vouchers to be exchanged by 20 December & used by 31st. This was my birthday present to me. All I have to do is get back out there. My quest challenge.
