have you tried ansible_nested (
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_loops.html#nested-loops)

Enter code here..---
- name: stuff
  hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: no
  connection: local

  vars:
    l: [a,b,c]
    n: [1,2,3]

  tasks:
    - name: show nested
      debug: msg="[{{ item[0] }},{{ item[1] }}]"
      with_nested:
        - l
        - n
.

results in:
TASK: [show nested] 
***********************************************************
ok: [localhost] => (item=['a', 1]) => {
    "msg": "[a,1]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['a', 2]) => {
    "msg": "[a,2]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['a', 3]) => {
    "msg": "[a,3]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['b', 1]) => {
    "msg": "[b,1]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['b', 2]) => {
    "msg": "[b,2]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['b', 3]) => {
    "msg": "[b,3]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['c', 1]) => {
    "msg": "[c,1]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['c', 2]) => {
    "msg": "[c,2]"
}
ok: [localhost] => (item=['c', 3]) => {
    "msg": "[c,3]"
}
