Title: Fuel Reward Systems
Post by: Rangie3.0LtrDan on March 29, 2006, 23:48:54

Well round here we have 3 supermarkets doing fuel, Asda, Tesco and Morrisons.  Now only Tesco and Morrisons do a reward scheme for fuel (Asda dont seem to do one, and the only service station in town is a Shell one which i have no idea what they do!)

After a debate with someone today i decided to work out which reward scheme was better, and so this is what i came up with:

Tesco

£1.00 = 1pt Gained
100pts = £1 Reward
500pts = £5 Reward
£5 Reward costs £500 and takes 25 weeks to gain (at £20 a week)

Morrisons

1 Litre (T/a 90p) = 15pts Gained
5000pts = £5 Reward
£5 Reward costs £300 and takes 15 weeks to gain (at £20a week)

So maybe morrisons is a better option!  But also remember Tesco Clubcard is also used for shopping so obviously targets can be gained easier, whereas morrisons only use theirs for fuel.

Tesco points on fuel cannot be gained at Express stores.

Express stores sell ESSO fuel, not Tesco Fuel, hence no points may be given on it.

Fair enough, then must restrict this to Supermarkets then, Express arent really classed as the Supermarkets though as they replaced the convenience stores.

supermarket petrol is exactly the same petrol as you get at any other petrol station.
it probably comes from the same depot too

Tesco fuel is ESSO fuel, which makes the whole clubcard thing even more bizarre :)
