    Also don't forget the clubcard vouchers they send expire after 2 years... However there are round ways this. You would need £750 of vouchers, say you get £10 a quarter thats £40 a year so 19 years at the rate you receive vouchers now!

    OMG!!!!!!!! I need to boost my clubcards by a LOT!!! I'm not sure about taking up the credit card or the Clubcardplus(too confusing and don't think I'll remeber to debit money into it beforehand(if that's what you're meant to do???))
    Not too sure about the recycling though either, don't use too many ink cartridges although i have read on this thread people getting 20-30 cartridges and then recycling them.....how???:confused: Recycling mobiles is the same issue in my house as everyone's stuck on a long term contract

    However, I think I can boost points through Tesco petrol and their double points offers in petrol taht are sometimes on and i also recall the loophole of 200/100 extra points when you sign up through o2 or tesco mobile for certain products, although that was cut short by tesco. Only took advantage of 400 points for £2 spend on this as sounded too good to be true....didn't think I'll really get it.

    One last thing.....does it actually say on in-store labels "100 points when you buy this"? because i think i could take advantage of that!;)

    p.s. If you do book a holiday through Tesco deals can you get say 3 flights with deals vouchers and pay for the rest or get the rest through other non-tesco vouchers?

    Thanks a lot!!!

    With deals you'll always have to pay for taxes and fuels (at least you do with Virgin) so you will need to pay around £500 minimum in cash.

    As a new user I can't post a link yet but if you check out "Quick! Grabbit while you can" forum there is a post with details.
    Basically 6 bottles of torres with 25% off comes to approx £27 and you get 150 points per bottle of wine so I just got 900 points!

    Exactly the same as the old Platinum Finest credit card!:D

    (IIRC It's 2pts for every £ spent in store and 1pt for every £2 spent anywhere else. Can only use CC+ in store.)

    You can always freephone Clucard and ask for Voucher renewal/extension.
    They do this happily.
    I just returned some yesterday, expiry same, trackable Recorded Delivery[important].

    I'd use the PFTCC.

    I've got this card too (closed to new applicants - new one is only half as good), I average around £30 - £50 a quarter (worth £120 - £200 in deals of course) from using it. Great for people who have one like us but I would have thought for newbies cc+ is a great option.
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D

    Hi Folks - I'm also an avid collector of Tesco Club Card points. Is there a website (it could be the current Tesco website) which shows you all the current products carrying additional cc points for that week??
    Thanks
