Tescos have a deal on John Smiths

#1 Post by Kwackerz » Sat Nov 29, 2008 9:29 pm

:smt003 Two 15 can crates for 12 quid.

So is this the only bonus coming from the new VAT cut? (Tescos start from Today apparently, getting in the spirit of it..) I cant see retailers changing the shelf prices at all tbh.

All mockery aside, 12 quid for 30 semi decent beers isnt too bad. Apparently they do one of the weak pissy things the same deal too.. La... Larrr.. ah yes.. Lager. Although why people buy that I'll never understand. Horrid shite.

Extra Smooth is an alright drink!! Considering it's out of a can, I think of many worse.

Yeah - about all it's got going for it is that it's not a Lager, not Tetleys, not Boddingtons, or Worthington or similar.

The thought of 30 cans of it to get through ...... :smt100

Now let's just consider the forum virtual bar and all the drinks that have been ordered ..... and the many times that someone has said "ooooh, I'd love a John Smiths" ........


Thanks for posting though Kwackerz - I don't want to discourage you should there be a future offer on something worth drinking

Yeah ..... John Smiths - the squadies champagne

.... maybe bought to drink as penance if you lost but surely something better for a win!

Perhaps you could pass a few cans to Aladinsaneuk to drown his sorrows :smt003

Any beer out of a can is horrid! Bottles aren't much better.

Which is why I drink wine........ Hic!

there's recently been a deal at Lisl for pint bottles of half decent real ale at £1 per bottle - still ongoing last time I went in.
