Tesco brings back ‘kids eat for free’ scheme for half-term as cost-of-living pressures hit families

// Tesco is bringing back its Kids Eat Free scheme at cafes during the October half-term
// Adults can spend as little as 60p and show a valid Clubcard to qualify for one free child’s meal

Tesco is bringing back its Kids Eat Free scheme at its cafes during the October half-term, as the cost of living crisis continues on.

The offer means parents can spend as little as 60p (on a piece of fresh fruit) to claim one free child’s meal worth up to £3.25 when showing their Clubcard at checkout.

To cover the half-term dates, the UK’s biggest grocer‘s scheme will run on weekdays between 17th and 28th October in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland and between 31st October and 4th November in Wales and will be available in 311 cafes across the UK.

Adults just have to purchase one item in a Tesco Cafe costing as little as 60p and show a valid Clubcard to qualify for one free child’s meal.

Kids Eat Free is part of Tesco’s drive to help customers spend less – putting more money back in their pocket ahead of the Christmas season.

During the summer school holidays, Tesco cafes gave away free meals for over 260,000 children.

Earlier this week, Tesco announced a huge price freeze on more than 1,000 products in its Low Everyday Prices range in a bid to help cash-strapped shoppers, despite profits plunging almost 64% in the first half of its financial year.
