7 Days later and still fresh....

So here are the fresh Flowers from Tesco, 7 days after purchasing them with the £5 coupon from the Orchard at Tesco for the Fresh Flowers from Tesco programme.

I cant believe how fresh looking these flowers are after 7 days and find it quite unbelievable that there aren't even any dead ones yet.

I know Tesco offer a freshness guarantee on the flowers (over a week) but I didn't think they would look this good 7 days on, in fact I think they look even better than when I bought them.


Highly recommended #TriedForLess .

Fresh Flowers From Tesco

I got invited to take part in the Fresh flowers from Tesco programme by the Orchard at Tesco and received a coupon for £5 to use against flowers from Tesco and a selection of coupons to hand to friends and family.

When I went to choose my flowers I was amazed at the huge range that Tesco stock and after browsing I chose the beautiful Bouquet pictured - which I got for free after using my coupon.

The flowers were really fresh and came with a small sachet of flower food to add to the water and all I had to do was trim them down a bit to fit in my vase properly.

Visitors to my house have all commented how pretty they are and were quite shocked when I said that they were only £5.


I highly recommend fresh Flowers from Tesco and shall certainly be buying them again #TriedForLess  .

Healthy Meals@Tesco, Fresh Vegetable Perfection

With the coupon for Fresh Fruit and Veg I received from the Orchard at Tesco for the Healthy Meals at Tesco programme I decided to use my coupon against fresh Vegetables and here’s my second review for this programme.

I used my coupon to purchase Carrots, Onions, Potatoes, Savoy Cabbage, Mushrooms and a Turnip and decided on making a Beef Casserole.

The first thing I noticed about the Vegetables was how fresh they were, they certainly hadn't been sitting around on a Supermarket shelf for days on end and were clearly delivered fresh to store the day I bought them.

Prep was easy - just some peeling and chopping and it only took about 20 minutes, all I had to do then was add some Casserole Beef and stock and bang it in the oven for 4 hours.

When I took it out of the oven the smell was amazing and the Beef and Vegetables were cooked to perfection, the Vegetables were really fresh tasting and the rest of the family commented how tasty they were and even had second helpings.


I would definitely recommend Tesco fresh Fruit and Vegetables and will definitely be buying lots more in the future. #TriedForLess

Healthy Meals at Tesco.

I got invited to take part in the Healthy Meals at Tesco programme from the Orchard at Tesco and received a coupon for £2 to use against any items from the Healthy living range and also a £2 coupon to use against any fresh Fruit and Vegetables and also some coupons to hand to friends and family.

After browsing at my local Tesco I decided to use my Healthy Living coupon to buy a Tesco Healthy Living Chow Mein priced at £2 so I got it for free.

All I had to do was heat it in the microwave for 4 minutes and serve, I was surprised at how much there was, there was lots of Chicken breast meat and loads of fresh tasting and crunchy Vegetables which included Bean Sprouts, Carrots, Cabbage and Red Peppers all fused together with a savoury Mushroom, Soy and Ginger sauce - what’s not to like?…well, I certainly did like it.


The taste was excellent and almost tasted as good as home made, if not better, it was a generous sized portion and I highly recommend it to others. #TriedForLess
