Free money from Tesco

rainbowdash

I went into Tesco the other day and realised I had no cash at all, just cards. I went up to the customer service desk with my palstic thinking the girl would enable me to withdraw €1 on the laser.

Instead she just opened the till and handed me €1.

Well done,
You've just alerted Tesco to the fact that their employees have the potential to defraud the company.

Why did you want just €1 anyway?

A trolley maybe.

Tesco have a Nigerian Prince now too?

Seriously OP; this ain't a bargain alert. It's a generosity alert that a Tesco staff member looked kindly on you when you were skint.

It was for the trolley.

They assumed their act of generosity would be repaid after you had paid for the items/dropped the trolley back......

Can this be moved to the Bad Bastard Alert forum?

and how were you going to get even a quid with just your card, you have to buy something to get cashback
they probably just gave you the quid to get rid of you

an awful fuss about €1!

I was not asked to bring it back, and to be honest I forgot about it, in any case I doubt I would have walked back from the car park with it.

Its a supermarket, I doubt I was the first person to arrive at the door with no change for a trolley, presumably they would have a standard way of dealing with it.

The obvious way being to give me a token that fits the trolley.
