The British Royal Courts: The Story of Her Majesty and the Royal Tesco shopping gift card

Britain's Queen Elizabeth II has appeared all smiles after winning a voucher through the victory of one of her horses at a horse show.

There are no small savings, even for the (very wealthy) British Queen Elizabeth II who appeared all smiles after winning a voucher worth 50 pounds (96 Canadian Dollars) thanks to the victory of a her horses at the annual horse show. The week finally ended rather well for the sovereign, who made headlines in the press after the release of a video in which she describes as "very rude" Chinese officials for their behavior during the October visit of President Xi Jinping in the UK.

Thursday at the "Royal Windsor Horse Show", this passionate equestrian attended the victory of her Barber's Shop in horse trials of the prestigious competition held near Windsor Castle, one of her official residences located forty kilometers west of London. Wearing a royal blue quilted jacket, a scarf and a tweed skirt, the Queen was given an envelope containing a voucher for £ 50 to spend at Tesco, a major British supermarket chains. Visibly in high spirits, she laughed discovering the reward.

"We hope this prize will give a little boost to the royal weekly shopping" a spokesman for Tesco commented with a touch of irony. For besides the fact that Her Majesty, who has just turned 90, has hardly accustomed to shopping itself, it is indeed perhaps not uninteresting to note that the royal family spent in in 2015 some 1.3 million pounds (1.65 million euros) to fill his pantry or 25,000 pounds per week. The expenses of the royal family are partly funded by British taxpayers, who paid as such 37.9 million pounds in fiscal year 2014-15. According to the Sunday Times, Elizabeth II is the head of a fortune estimated at about 340 million pounds (431 million euros).
