Buy FTM Platinum with Tesco Clubcard

Just spotted this in the most recent brochure - thought it may be useful for someone...

Just seen that you can 'buy' a subcription to YFT too...

Just reading on there that the software includes 'a 6 Month Essentials Membership to Ancestry.co.uk' so I think that's quite a bargain!

Ive got mine already Velma. I got it ready for when my sub ran out late September but (shhh!) its still running at the mo.

Ancestry have just sent me an email today advertising Family Tree Maker™ 2010 Platinum edition for only £33.71 (a saving of £25).
Does anyone know if this will work on a MAC? (if I ever buy a MAC).
I presume that this will update the version that I now use (WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE - FAMILY TREE MAKER 2005) it looks a good buy just for the Ancestry part which is probably as much as I need.

I do not have any Tesco Vouchers.

How do you use them on line otherwise ??

Margaret, Family Tree Maker will NOT work on Macs.

Re the offer from Ancestry - yes it will update from your current FTM2005 program - just make sure you back it up first before doing the upgrade of the file. The offers sounds like a good deal as the Platinum edition should have a 6 month free Ancestry (Essentials package) - worth about £42. However, check out what they will charge for postage as I am not sure that is included in their price.

Then compare the price with Amazon - currently £29.99 - not sure how much postage would be but I seem to remember I paid something like £6 a couple of weeks ago.
