Always buddy

I'm a relatively active member on hotukdeals, but rarely post up deals.

I bought this and posted it up last week

only thing is that the price of the 2 items you need to buy are most probably dearer than filling the car up as normal then driving into a supermarket etc as most prices in service stations are higher

would be better if it was just a straight 5p per litre off instead of having to actually buy 2 items to save money

That deal is advertised in forecourts but you need to buy about £4 of sweets to get it. Ok if you have a sweet tooth or need a can of relentless.

It's a con.

If your Scooby tank is 60 litres and it's absolutely empty the most you could save is £3.

The price of the sweets/drinks are going to be more or less that.

...........Nice try Shell.

Tesco do the same - spend £50 or more and get 5p off a litre.

Great, so you buy stuff you wouldn't normally buy in order to get above the £50 threshold just to save er... £3 if you fill up the tank with er.... £80's worth of petrol.

In fairness to Rob if you're spending it anyway, or if the extra stuff is useful then fine, no point in not benefitting.

As I always do my big shop at Tesco that's a good deal for me.

Same here (in fact with 5 in the house just popping in equals £50) but it's not such a good deal for me.

My tank is only 50L

I always make sure I'm on fumes when I go in.

For those of you that are going to out say 50L of fuel in your car. You'll pick up two packets of £1 sweets, so you actually pay 50p less, and get the sweets you technically paid for free!

I understand it's not the best deal, but for those that are brimming the rank, you'll save or get free sweets or drink, simples!

Rob!

Aye but it's a Shell garage, which is 8-10p/l more for Nitro+ than Tesco Momentum.
