Isnt the offer limited to 100 litres?
Every time I have used the Tescos vouchers, I have been capped at the 100l limit.
Does this change when you 'multi-voucher' or have I been ripped off?
How is everyone else managing to stock pile in jerry cans etc?

I know this is a bit off topic, but after shopping in Tescos for years, I realised that I hadnt bought everyting on our list for over 2 years as it was either 'sold out', 'no longer stocked', or 'ooh, we should have some, but I dont know why there isnt any there'. There wasnt even anything 'weird' about the stuff on our list, it was all basic groceries.
I now shop at Waitrose and have bought everything on the list every time I have been. Their staff are far more helpful and the quality of the produce is far better too.
I only shop at Tescos when I absolutely have to. Other than that I would go anywhere else as they couldnt give a  about their customers.
50p discount per litre is still worth stocking up on bog rolls for though!

Vouchers are limited to 100litres in a single "fill"
Nothing stopping you returning with another 5 jerry cans 
*obviously with another 5 vouchers...

They are also doing it when you spend more than £8 on dairy products, so I think the trick there is to put it through as separate transactions.
Don't think you will need to put through separately if you spend over 16 you should get 2
Not tried it yet but will Saturday when we do a shop but the items they have put up in price should price match to other supermarkets so in theory they may be even cheaper Club original turbo

Just looked up the storage regs Control of Pollution [Oil Storage]Regulations 2001 and as from a change of regs 1/9/05 you can store Diesel in any quanity, as long as it is in containers of less than 200 ltrs capacity, and said containers "must be of sufficient strength and structual integrity to ensure they will not burst or leak in ordainary use"
In any container/tank/etc over 200 ltrs capacity you are governed by the regulations as to how/where/when/etc.
The regs apply to containers capacity, not to how much fuel is in them!

The pumps cut out at 100litres anyway, I am coming over in the morning and heading down to Preston with the van and I have 8 drums that I had diesel in if anyone wants them I can bring them down and you can meet me somewhere.

A bit off topic but I have a fuel card and I'm allowed to spend 160 a month on fuel. If I take the D3 it swallows it all up but if I take the Fiesta I brim the tank and the rest goes in metal jerrycans. As used by my previous employer .
If I take the quad I fill the tank and then I have a few plastic 5l cans on the rear storage rack. They get filled as well. They are secure and pose no danger.
I have never been stopped or asked not to by either the fuel station staff or by plod on the road. They have passed me on my quad a few times now. HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE
They shall not grow old as those of us left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condem. At the going down of the sun, and in the morning WE WILL REMEMBER THEM
