Advantages: Can be redeemed for 4 x their value

Disadvantages: Watch the date to use

This is one of my favourite reward cards and usually use mine for petrol and sometimes grocery.

Its a credit card size which easily fits in your purse, they also send you a couple of keyrings ones so when you go into the petrol station its attached to your keys.

If you look out for the deals the value is fantastic eg before christmas i received an email saying if i purchased a cd, i`d collect 1000 point. So i purchased a 2 Cds for £13.99 as a christmas present, i got 2000 points which x 4 equates to £20 of clubcard vouchers which can be used at various restaurants, for a magazine subscription, theme parks, anything really (see : www.tesco.com/clubcard) . So basically, i got two CDS as presents and £20 off my restaurant bill for £14.

I tend to use my points for treats using the deals but you can also use the money on the voucher in store but it equates to the surface value on the voucher.

If you collect the points in store, you hand the clubcard to the assistant, she swipes it . Every pound you spend = 2 points, every 100 points equally £1

I always look out for offers, some products are double points , some weeks, if you buy electrical goods like a tv for instance, one of the things they could offer, is £50 of club points, this is excellent beause x4 with deals you`d get £200 for clubdeals.

To get your clubdeals, you go to deals website. Put in your voucher numbers to the value you want and they post them to you. One tip though if getting themepark tickets they`ll take tesco vouchers or special offers eg 2-1 so work out whats best for you

The clubcard points vouchers are sent out 4 times a year and can be saved up or used straight away.

I also like the fact that after you shop, they print how much you have at the bottom of the receipt.

Summary: Great card, like the keyfob idea, used often can accumulate quickly
