A TESCO shopper has revealed how to get a “free” Costa coffee from the supermarket if you buy a £3 meal deal.
The customer shared the trick on TikTok, after discovering she could get a regular coffee, salad and chocolate bar for £3.

Posting under the handle @passwithbecky, she said the coffee alone would have cost her £3.05.
It means she essentially got her morning caffeine fix for free under Tesco’s meal deal – while pocketing 5p change as well.
“I got a salad, chocolate bar and regular coffee for £3 instead of £3.05 for just the coffee – win,” she said.
There’s a catch though – you have to be a Clubcard member to get the meal deal for £3, otherwise it is £3 for non-Clubcard shoppers.
The video has racked up 23.3k likes already, with many people commenting about how they were unaware of the deal too.
One fan said it was “useful information”, while another said: “Omg I never realised that before”.
Tesco allowed shoppers to grab a Costa coffee under its meal deal offer earlier this year.
Around 2,000 Tesco stores have Costa hot drinks machines.

Under its meal deal offer, you can choose from a main meal – normally a sandwich or pasta pot – a snack and a drink.
It’s free to get a Clubcard and you can sign up online. Around 20million people in the UK already have one.
You can sign up to the Clubcard scheme online or instore.
As well as Clubcard prices you can earn points every time you shop that can later be exchanged for money-off vouchers.
Clubcard prices were first introduced in 2019, but an investigation by The Sun last year found that the prices offered were not always the cheapest deal available.
