In Sainsburys the 25% off usually applies to ANY 6 or more bottles over £5. Occasionally own brand "house" wines are excluded.

Morissons usually has a restricted range - this time it is quite a wide range, other times it only applied to a limited few or their "Best" (or whatever they call it) own brand ones.

Tesco it varies, can be restricted to their own brand Finest.

The key is to read the label on the shelf, unless you're too posh to shop yourself, then it is trial and error when you get to the checkout :)

Just been in Sainsburys and their 24% off is running, although apparently been on nearly a week.

The Trivento Special Reserve is down to 850p, and 19 Crimes uprising at £8, before the 25% discount, also somr Chronic on deal.

I really must stop saving so much, I got home to find we now have 5 each of crimes and Trivento, so went to store them under the stairs, where I found another 5 Crimes and 3 more Chronics hiding in the 'whites' rack.

Oh well, someone's having a Merry Christmas then. It seems.

Thwack!

It's been on a lot longer than that. Methinks perhaps playing for seasonal indulgence.

Currently £18 for three bottles at Morrisons, so just £6 per bottle -

The above page seems to indicate that the offer will run to 1st January if they've still got any on the shelf...

Sainsburys' 6-bottles 25%-off offer has now been running a full month (looking at my own earlier post). Tesco is still running, and I believe it's been on for a similar time.

Desperate marketing?

I was in our local Sainbury's yesterday and I thought the offer had ended? Certainly there were no ovbious signs.

I suspect there is a max it can run as it could be deemed a permanent offer and then no longer an offer, although Majestic seem to manage it?

I was (as ever) going by what I saw on their website. Prompted to look by IAAG's post this morning. Wine is something I generally buy online, as 6+ bottles benefit from delivery!
