As I understand it, the 50% reduction in food only applies to restaurants and cafes if you eat in and only up to a maximum of £10. You will struggle to find fish and chips in a restaurant for £10 these days.

Also, it only applies on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and only for the month of August, so about 12 days in all. Hardly worth worrying about.

The VAT reduction from 20% to 5% is a different issue and applies to hotels, B&B's, campsites etc; but I very much doubt that the saving to the businesses will be passed down to the customers.



Campsite cannot charge you 20% vat then only pay the vat man 5 %, as that’s illegal

Bessie





I agree but how many of us know when we pay our campsite tariff how much of that is VAT? The campsites will just charge the same as they have always charged and according to a couple of comments on these boards today, those tariffs are likely to rise in any case in order for campsites to recover lost revenue for this year. The punters won't have a clue what is right or wrong.

I’m sure the caravan clubs copy invoice has a breakdown of the charges, I can’t see them trying to duck out of it as the publicity will be to much, small independent sites maybe but not big outfits

Im hoping for a £72 saving off my main summer holiday
