Me too!!!! I said this to my husband and he said I was a kill joy!I really hate this scheme. Future generations saddled with debt because people are paid to stay at home, then paid to eat out, then bought a free bike
But if they deduct it automatically I guess I'll get it a few times. Do you have to ask for it? Just had a drink and cake at Costa and was charged full price. Or do you have to order something to eat (I know it's in the name)?
Surely all they are doing is putting people offI saw a restaurant chain on instagram last night and it said you had to spend a minimum of £10 to receive the discount. A few places that my colleagues have been to definitely haven't spent £10
That's a breach of the scheme, but like these instatwats breaking ASA rules I doubt they'll ever get pulled up on it.I saw a restaurant chain on instagram last night and it said you had to spend a minimum of £10 to receive the discount.

Exactly my thoughts! Looks like it’s working, 30% increase in footfall in retail on the back of thisI know we’re all gonna pay for it for years to come so I may as well use it now and enjoy it before spending the next 30 years paying it back, I’ll be paying either way
I may have read it wrong but I'm pretty sure it said something like 'to take advantage of the discount, a minimum spend of £10 is required' if it pops up again I'll check it.That's a breach of the scheme, but like these instatwats breaking ASA rules I doubt they'll ever get pulled up on it.
Nandos and five guys seemed dead Thurs and Fri, but the weather was great so that's half expected. I do think many people went earlier this week instead of at the weekend so moved buisness rather than creating more.
My husband is a chef and he's said the same. It's also screwed with their days off as usually they fall Monday - Thursday as Friday - Sunday are obviously the busiest days.Honestly I work in a restaurant and while it is a good thing for businesses and the economy it’s not so great for public health, it’s encouraging a lot of groups of people. I was out for a drink last weekend luckily we sat outside but I went in at one point to use the bathroom and honestly the inside was packed and no social distancing whatsoever it was absolutely rammed and they just kept letting people in. Everywhere we passed was jam packed
