Hi, Just thought I would add my tuppence worth and post as I know this site is all about moneysaving et cetera but should we really be promoting companies which produce food which isn't exactly healthy for our bodies.
It may be cheap but does that mean we should be promoting it? I know everyone can make their own choice so it could still be listed on the site but does it need to be included in the weekly tips email?
Of course it should be promoted, you are allowed to eat junk food occasionally, it's all about balance. Nobody is suggesting you eat it every day.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Why's it been promoted? Simple... they're probably the two most visited food outlets in the country - this saves people money when they go there.Martin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.

Honestly..... This is a very free world people, businesses advertise, customers decide to take part or not! Decisions can not be made for yourself - you eat junk food or you don't, simple as that. I honestly can not see anything wrong in BOGOF campaign from anyone, including Mc D. Main question is: when did you last see any health food advertised at 1/2 price?!? Yes! And look at this short example: why do we still get charged VAT on (healthly) fruit juice at the same time when everyone is trying to make us eat healthy food? http://www.innocentdrinks.co.uk/our_drinks/petition/0

Insert From Martin
Thanks for the great spot Braveheart. Just a couple of quick notes; firstly always remember to hand the voucher in before you order. Plus these vouchers are only valid until the start of February... so if you're going to use them... do it quick (don't overkill though... even for MoneySaving reasons... living off BK or MD is taking it too far!)
Also Roadhog in a post below points out this link will take you direct to the leaflet without filling in your details
