From today it seems you can get Tesco Clubcard vouchers to use at Xscape. It's not totally clear but I think it is saying that you get £20 worth of activity vouchers for £5 of clubcard tokens. The skiing available is

Butterfly, Useful! thanks - yes, you get 4 times the face value on Tesco deals. Was that on their website or have you been sent a new booklet?

Good old Tesco, my social life revolves around acceptance of their vouchers

pam w, I was looking to see what the cost of going to Cas is and spotted it on their "special offers" page. I suspect there may be limits as to when you can book to use the vouchers but it seems like a good deal.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

me too. I've just bought Longleat vouchers for a family visit for my grandson's birthday - he's lion mad. I can't think how any ordinary family can afford to visit those sorts of places without Tesco vouchers; they cost a fortune. A few outing to those theme parks and you've paid for a ski holiday.

Looks good, although it doesn't look like you can use them off normal recreational slope time - only the 2 hours with meal.

Seems a good deal - eg the freetime pass at £32 would be £8 in Tesco vouchers and the 3hr fast track lesson would be £22.50.

Throughout summer all the sno zones are offering £10 for 1 hour, £15 for two and £20 for three, all day (and evening) Monday to Wednesday. They also gave me a summer loyalty card where if you come 3 times in six weeks you get a 4th session of the same length free.

achilles, I use my Tesco credit card in Waitrose, then get Tesco clubcard points to spend somewhere else.

You know it makes sense.

Butterfly, sorry I was being facetious.

gillipepper: I had a look at that but - as far as I could see - there was still exorbitant (£100+ per person) taxes and charges to pay. It was cheaper to book easyjet for the dates/destinations I was looking at.
I'd be interested to know when airmiles can work out cheaper?

Butterfly, Cheers for pointing this one out... I'd been saving my clubcard points for a while, but there was never a deal that really appealed (i'd already done all the ones i fancied) so the points were just building up.
Then i saw your text and am thinking of cashing in my points for 2 "learn to snowboard in a day" experiences - figured that i might give the dark side a go and see what all the fuss is about!
