Just like WHsmith vouchers, Next vouchers etc...

Which vouchers can you buy online, where you purchase them online, the come in the post and the person can use them for fuel and petrol?
(they fill up the car and then go to the cashier and pay with the voucher ) ?

at common stations,
-Esso petrol stations
-Shell petrol stations
-tesco petrol stations
-etc

and which vouchers can you buy online with paypal ?


The question is, can you buy vouchers for petrol? - and which ones? from which sites?

which vouchers can you buy
(that you give to the Cashier at the petrol pump, after you have loaded your car)

and which ones can you buy online, using paypal ?

    The question has to be

    WHY?

    Sounds dodgy to me.

    haha, that made me laugh.

    here's why i'm asking, basically a friends birthday coming up, he is always traveling and complaining that the cost of fuel is expensive.

    I want to buy a fuel voucher for him, for £50 or more as his gift, so he can use it, it is something they would appreciate.

    As for payment paypal would be preferred, hence asked this question.

    If we really think like that, a £50 note can be given lol.

    I know a prepaid card can be go to spend everywhere,

    but want to make this a nice touch on something he is complaining about.

    I kinda pun gift but one that he will appreciate and use to good use.

    Sainsbury's gift cards cannot be used at their petrol stations any more, so don't bother with one of those.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
