Tesco has come under fire for a "shocking" rule regarding Clubcards, with a retail expert calling on the supermarket to change its terms amid the cost of living crisis.
One shopper in Manchester was left furious when her 16-year-old daughter was told that she could not use a Clubcard, which entitles holders to lower prices in store as well as points, vouchers and other rewards, to pay for a Meal Deal at her local Tesco. The teen instead had to fork out full price for her lunch, which cost her an extra 50p compared to the Clubcard price.
Taking to a local Facebook page, the frustrated mum wrote: "I think it's absolutely disgusting that a 16 year old can not use a Clubcard at Tesco. She went in to buy her sandwich for dinner, and you need a Clubcard for the Meal Deal and they wouldn't allow her to use it, so she had to pay full price."
