spend £50 at Sainsurys get 5p off litre of fuel....or maybe not small warning

Just a small warning. I spent just over £50 in Sainsburys yesterday and expected to get a petrol voucher but I didn't. I asked why not and was told it was because I had bought baby formula and that doesn't count in the amount. I know baby formula can't be used in special offers etc so wasn't surprised and didn't make a fuss (i did check small print at cs and assistant at till had been right) I just thought I would let people know.

    I expect the same applies to pescriptions and pharmacy medicines, and any in-store / on-site concessions.

    Hope is not a strategy :D...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!
  • Giving out the vouchers counting the milk towards the total would have been seen to offer a promotion on a 1st formula feed which isnt allowed in any way
    Tescos dont give clubcard points not Boots advantage points. Quite simply the store would be breaking the law
