Does anyone know if the 25% discount is avaiable instore in Scottish stores.

Or do we need to use online

thanks

All discounts on multiple purchases of drink are now banned as a result of the SNP's recent decision in the Scottish Parliament. Unfortunately that affects moneysavers as well as the problem drinkers they are trying to target (it's a bit of a sledgehammer to crack a nut). The SNP are also intending soon to ban cheap drinks by bringing in a minimum price for alcohol. That will likely affect people who buy cheap-end gin, brandy etc to make fruit liqueurs, as I do. I don't think the policy really has been thought through, but there you go. Make up your own mind. Tesco (and possibly others) are getting round the bans by offering to deliver from England, so you can still access discounted prices with those firms. As the bulk-buy booze trade disappears over the border, I can imagine that Scottish retailers won't be raising a toast to Alex Salmond! I've already dropped my favourite wine supplier, Villeneuve Wines (based in Peebles) in favour of an English supplier.

Does this mean buying eg. 6 bottles at Tesco and aiming for JTD from Asda for a 3/£10 offer is no longer possible in Scotland?? Has it kicked in yet?
