The kind lady at the other end did mention there would be a credit check though.

There shouldn't be a credit check - unless you request an overdraft on your Clubcard Plus.

Clubcard Plus will help - also (and a bit more drastic) there's Tesco Homephone, Broadband, Gas & Electricity, Insurances etc all which offer points though they may not always be the cheapest so do check.

Join their clubs i.e. wine club etc to get extra points vouchers.

All details for the above will be on their website.

Any shopping you do on the Tesco website will earn points if you register on the site so you could earn points for books, cd's, dvd's, games etc.

I've also found getting my petrol at Tesco helps to bump the points up a bit!

Good luck!

Not sure about anyone else, but I was really disappointed with the last healthy living mailout - only one coupon with bonus points on, for some obscure pots of beans - the rest were 20p off veg, fruit etc., instead of the usual bonus points - boo!

Hi all, I am new to this part of the forum and looking for as many ways as possible to up my clubcard points total.
I have just applied for the clubcard credit card. This will be my first and only credit card which I will use for shopping and fuel only.

Any other hints and tips are very welcome, just reading through the older thread now
