I thought this was a relatively new concept that I'd picked up a few months ago but have since found out that it has actually been around for a while, would have been useful in the time when I shopped there a lot! It is very easy to get a card. I got a form because the person serving me asked if I would like a waterstones card, but I'm sure they would be happy to give you one if you decided to ask for it. It is just a form with your basic details on such as your address and email, it doesn't take very long to fill in and it is important that you do this so you can get all the different offers through via email. In addition to this, there is a plastic card ...  Read the complete review

I read a lot of books and, as such, I used to use my Waterstones Card a lot! I mean I probably bought about 3-4 books a week and I would always use my card when purchasing them and so, over the years, I accumulated points which I would then use to buy myself more books. Unfortunately, I don't use the card as often anymore because I tend to read books on my Kindle and so buy books through Amazon - but for a while this card helped me out a lot. It's like a credit card and so you can store it in your purse or wallet. Getting the card was really easy and just involved me filling out an application form in the Waterstones shop and then I was given the card ...  Read the complete review

The Waterstones Card operates by giving its members three points every time they spend £1. Each point is then worth a penny and the points can be redeemed at any time. This fact is a great advantage of the Waterstones Card over other rewards systems. Rather than giving vouchers or prizes to members when they reach certain points or, your points are yours to spen in store as and when you please. And points aren't only earned for books but for any of the products on sale in Waterstones (excluding concession stands like the internal coffee shops I think). This means that you could go on a biography book buying spree one day and use your points the next week to buy birthday .  Read the complete review

I am avid reader and so a couple of years ago when I found out that Waterstones were launching a loyalty points card I was delighted, free books have to be a good thing. Whilst I had a WH Smith club card (now sadly obsolete) for years and used that when I could, I'd always loved browsing around Waterstones and so I was pleased to hear that I would be able to get some reward for shopping there too. Signing Up For the Scheme: Signing up for the scheme is really easy, you can either fill in a leaflet in store and get your card right away or sign up on line and be sent your card within a couple of days. If you sign up in store you can then add your ...  Read the complete review
