My Tesco points total was almost 540 points, yet I have been sent a voucher for £4.50 and the other points 'forwarded'. This means that I am unable to 'double-up' as the minimum needed to do so is £5.
Yes, to some people this would noy be a big deal, but as a pensioner the extra would have been handy.
Shame on you Tesco.

Do they do double-up offers on screw-on brown hats, incontinence bags and booties?

This is certainly one way to get people off the WP, just get them to individually scrutinised bags of salad. What about that mouse (half a mouse in fact) that was found in a chocolate bar? They admitted that sometimes their nuts have mice in. Which I think is more worrying. Just think about the poop.

Well as my mother used to say to me as a child when I accidentally ate something revolting "it's all protein".

Perhaps they could do mini mouse Tenaladys? TenaMouses?

On the Saturday when the collection quarter closed, your total would not have been 540, otherwise they WOULD have sent you a £5 CC voucher.

Tesco would much rather you used a Double Up rather than what I do with mine.

Stop whinging.

So don't label it as ready to eat then!

But it is ready to eat, just avoid any live bits if you don't fancy 'em!

The 'cut-off' date for the calculation of the voucher amount was the 21st July. At that point you would have had under 500 points, but it appeared to you that you would get more - as the points kept going up for about another week before the figure was reset - quite normal.
They'll almost certainly be another voucher exchange in November (cut-off date 2th October) you could keep the voucher till then and combine it with the next one.

It's quite simple:

If you can't guarantee that it is ready to eat, then don't label it "ready to eat".

It doesn't really matter at which point in the process the moth got in to the bag; what matters is that the bag was mis-labelled.

then you sir/madam are stupid
