    Worked for me at Tesco Redcar. Checkout person asked me how many bags I was reusing and I said ten and she gave me 10 points. I also got a 40 extra points coupon ... on a magazine that costs 60p.

    She said collecting green points will lead to more offers in the future.

    I disagree, I would always think twice about spending 10p on a bag. I used 20 tesco bags for my last shop, that's £2.00! It would soon mount up.

    John_T doesn't sound like a proper MSE!!:confused: :rolleyes:


    I make 20 bags = 20 green points = 20p = 80p in deals, that would soon mount up too.

    Exactly, why pay 10p a time when you can recycle and get 4p a time?

    It was actually a jovial rhetorical question! I’m actually very smart and have been dressing myself since I was eighteen!

    I Think Hampshire and wiltshire do them too. You could call your local council and ask for the recycling department they may offer a similar scheme.
