    I'd walk out too. They want me to shop then it's without restriction or I go elsewhere. My local Sainsbury's has a carpark that you have to get a ticket for and validated after shopping which must be a minimum £10...expcept tobacco. Now if there's a restriction on tobacco, they shouldn't be selling it. No good saying we're looking after your health if they're selling the poison anyway. Better off going to ASDA. :cool:

    A lot of supermarkets have stopped giving rewards on perceived 'unhealthy' products....:(

    You can tell a lot about a woman by her hands..........for instance, if they are placed around your throat, she's probably slightly upset. ;)

    The CO-OP don't give rewards on booze or cigs, and Tesco don't give them on cigs, so, along with the OP, it seems, that stores are now making certain goods exempt from rewards.

    It is the government that dictate it on Tobacco products, you are not allowed to run promotions as it may promote smoking. That includes offering points.

    On second thoughts it's not a bad idea, good place for the Government to make healthy citizens.
    Anything with excess sugar and fat is a good start.
