I have an issue about all of this "£1 in clubcard points = £4 in deals" stuff.

I know Martin has been saying it for a long time and I don't wish to speak ill of the big man, but a few things I have looked at on the "Clubcard Deals" aren't great value:

e.g. RAC basic cover:

According to Tesco website "normal price £57", "tesco deals price £14.25"

However

Through Quidco £34.99 with £25 cashback = £10

Therefore you'd be better off using your Tesco clubcard vouchers in store for shopping and using the saved cash to buy cover through Quidco.

For other things, maybe its better to use clubcard deals, I don't know... just wanted to let people know that Martin's (seemingly) very hard line telling people to never use clubcard points in store might not be so true in the end.

I think Martin's line on this has always been that it is never the best way to spend your Clubcard vouchers when you use them instore, but that you should shop wisely from the Deals brochure as some are better deals than others.

I'm a happy bunny as I've been saving my Clubcard vouchers patiently for AGES and now have over £100 worth, which means I can convert them into over £400 soon to spend in Goldsmiths (lovely jewellers) towards a platinum wedding ring I have my eye on - yay!!

As far as I am aware, clubcard points are given when purchases are made but are not deducted when taking items back. Maybe someone knows otherwise.

Therefore, the solution is simple. Buy the products and then take them back for a full refund but keeping the points generated.

Take a look at the Tesco codes sticky on the Discount Vouchers forum. That is where the code will be. Or on https://www.paidtoshop.co.uk.

Is there any way of checking your points balance? Reasing of asking is that I sent OH to buy some of the stuff and he forgot to hand over the Clubcard at the till, so went to the customer service desk where they swiped the card. But they didn't give a points receipt and he never asked whether they had given the 100 points. I feel like making him return the purchases now!

Not great for the environment though if the stuff just gets chucked, but its always good to get money from the giant Tesco!

Please do not chuck!! Go to one of the websites listed on here before where they send to those who need it! Or just to a local charity shop! Or even just give to a pregnant woman you see on the street :rotfl: (just don't try & touch her tummy they dont like that!)
