Tesco Clubcard Magazine Subscriptions

MoneyGeoff

Tesco don't do cinema tickets anymore so I was looking for something else to spend points on. I had a look at magazine subscriptions but it's a bit of a con really. The Tesco links take you to various subscription sites that have special 'Tesco Rates'. Eg Top Gear magazine costs £19.99 normally, but if bought via Tesco it's £59.50, so you aren't really saving anything.

Here's an example of one of the subscription sites:

And then here's the same site showing 'Tesco Rates'

Looking at the reviews on the clubcard site, most people seem unaware that they'd be better off just buying the magazine sub directly and using clubcard points on something else.
