On the other hand...
...Tesco is nothing to do with farepak so why should they give a sh*t if farepak has gone bust? Not their problem!
So you could say that offering £1/4 million of money they could keep is a nice gesture of goodwill.
Also, minor thought but what's the point in those Xmas hamper saving schemes anyway? Surely people would be better off putting the money into a savings account until Xmas instead of giving it to Farepak or whoever to get a basket of assorted food most of which they probably don't like anyway! It's far less likely that a bank will go bust and even then the government steps in to safeguard the customers under the monetary banking laws....
...wouldn't catch me giving £2 a week toward a cardboard box of spam and garibaldi biscuits once a year!
