Finally gave in and got one of these today.

Curious to know what’s the most points a border has collected, what it translated to in terms of finances value and what they spent it on.

Clubcard points are not PII.

You need to look out for when you can exchange them for triple value

The club card thing is genius from a psychological point of view

Very useful for 1/2 price railcards.

It was Tesco, I believe, who pioneered this incentive. Remember the Green Shield Stamps venture many years ago. There was a rival who pushed their blue stamps.

I believe the Co Op also used stamps as a reward years ago, we save our Tesco points to use yearly at Christmas usually have about £20-30.

I find it really annoying that a lot of retailers now want you to have a loyalty card or app to get the best prices

It’s almost as if they’re encouraging you to shop in their shop, the sneaky so and so’s.

That’s where they get you. They always had specials on, and often those prices are on sale at the same time on the same item at different supermarkets. But now you have to be a member to get that price. And psychologically it feels very satisfying. Great idea

I think we've got them all, sometimes 3 or 4 smaller shops across tesco ocado sainsbury & waitrose & can seriously save £50-75 quid a month. A bit embarrassing when they both turn up at the same time :oops:

They don’t lower prices in store for holders of said card though

Although the free coffees used to be nice

Morrisons have also started doing the reduced price for goods but only with their More card.

If they didn't sell Furstenbergs I would never go there. Prefer M&S Food Hall in Paisley even though it means going to bandit country.

Not sure about that claim

What is the point of myWaitrose card?

They do vouchers and discounts on certain days on certain limited food groups but no scheme akin to Club card prices.

I see Coop have changed their membership offer as well where you used to earn cash back on their own branded stuff

Now all you get is 5p off your plain croissant :(
