New TOtal Petrol loaylty card - get boots & M&S vouchers!

Total petrtol stations have a new loyalty card where you can earn vouchers for Boots, B&Q, Woolworths and M&S.

See www.topscard.com for details :)

They also tend to be the cheapest/in par with the cheapest in my area :)

Quote:

We give you 5 points for every litre of fuel you buy when your tops card is swiped in store – so each time you fill-up, remember to get your card out and collect your points.
Collect 5000 tops points and you can choose your £5 gift voucher to spend at Marks & Spencer, Boots or Kingfisher group which means you can splash out at Woolworths, Comet or B&Q.

EDIT:

Ok, so just worked out its not that great as need to spend 890 quid to get £5 - hardly a giveaway!! But worth it if you go there anyway and fill up regularly.

If you open a tops multi-card account, you can choose to give that same cash value to any recognised charity.

    The £890 figure varies depending upon the cost of a litre of petrol - would be £950 if it went up to 95p per litre, (or for that matter if that is what my local Total station charges as opposed to yours) or is more if you buy Super Unleaded or Diesel etc.

    The SIMPLEST way to look at this is that you get £5 back after you have purchased 1000 litres, which equates to 0.5p per litre discount whatever the price !

    Yeah ive had a tops card for ages, the best scheme is Tesco clubcard as if you spent the same £890 on Tesco fuel it would be worth £35.60 in Clubcard deals , and the more fuel went up the more you would get whereas the Total one always stays the same :)

    as tesco buy there fuel from the main oil companies(as they dont own many oil rigs etc:D ) the quality should be as good as normal total fuel as its all regulated anyway.

    some companies offer fuels with extra additives(at extra cost)which claim to give more performance,economy,cleaner engine,cure for cancer,wipe out famine,etc)so u pays your money and takes your choice.

    They are advertising it as new - maybe just at my local store its new then? Who knows. I certainly never saw anything about it there before. If this is the case I apologise...
