    If only we lived close enough to take advantage Sad

    I would be over there like a shot......

    Mind you, after two trips this year, I don't know where I could store any more wine......

    This is misleading I'm afraid. Agree that the lowest you will pay is £23 but
    THAT IS FOR ONE WAY ONLY
    . So, even though you go at the dead of night and get £23, not £30, your total bill is £46
    NOT £23.

    I see people saying about using Tesco vouchers for the tunnel for caravans.
    YOU CAN'T. 
    The deal does not apply to caravans although motor homes can.

    On Tuesday we are poppoing over to Calais for the day on P&O. The RETURN fare for the two of us and our car is £32 and we are not travelling at stupid times, even though Dover is about a 40 minute drive from where we now live.

    OH YES, YOU CAN AND OH YES, IT DOES!  

    Friends of ours, who travel with a caravan to France via the tunnel, have used Tesco vouchers for years now.  I don't know where you got that info from, but it's definitely not correct.

    What you can't use Tesco vouchers for is dogs (or cats or ferrets).  Our friends take their dog and they have to pay separately for her, as they can't use Tesco vouchers to pay for her.

    Ah!, I remember well those days of returning home and the car's back bumper hitting the road from time to time. Do they still allow you to fill up to the gunwhales, depressing the car suspension to that extent ?

    Incorrect. As InaD says, you can & I have done

    unless things have changed in the past couple of years

    The friends I quoted in my earlier post used Tesco vouchers for their crossing with Eurotunnel this year, car+caravan.

    We often like to go on a day trip across to France (to stock up) in July (as we are often down in the south east then).

    Went on the Tunnel web site yesterday and there are virtually no day crossings available in July and August - all sold out! Sad
