    You might be able to use it with Tesco Direct via parcel motel. Just a thought.

    Eh - no. Different countries, different currency, different companies, different vat and tax rules, just to mention a few reasons why not.

    Thanks for that sarcastic reply, I was asking as marks and Spencers gift cards bought here can be used in the UK.

    Some retailers can handle cross-curency, cross-borders transactions and others can't. I don't know if Tesco fall into this category, but a quick email or tweet to Customer Service should help find out quickly.
