Solution

c. The customer will be entitled to petrol as there was a good contract.

This is because the supermarket made a public promise (offer) which the customer accepted by performing the condition of spending £100 on wine. This forms a unilateral contract where the customer provides consideration (spending £100 on wine) in return for the supermarket's promise (free gallon of petrol). Therefore, the customer should be entitled to the petrol as per the terms of the contract.
