50p off a £40 spend? £1 every time I buy two magazines,  £3 when I buy a crafting magazine.
Not exactly tempting me back.

I have the same offers but it looks like I have to spend £100 to get 50p back as mine says £100 to go. Dont think I shall bother using it.

Exactly the same here.
It was £30 before Christmas, then went up to £50 in the new year. £100 is ridiculous for 50p cash pot, unless you do your "big shop" there every week.  
Far from encouraging me to shop / spend more  there, it's made me not want to bother any more. 
I managed to get £45 in my cash pot for Christmas, mostly through missions, but if this is all they're offering this year, I'll be lucky to make £5!!

And now Asda credit card is reducing the reward from 1% to 0.75% from April.

I've not had any notification yet from ASDA Money about that.  I know new customers get the 0.75%, will look out for an email.

I wish not all loyalty schemes were by apps, and instead those little stamp cards and things we used to get.  I know, i know, I'm old school....

There was something comforting about those little stamps and sticking them in a savings card!

If you have a penchant for those little stamps you can save up for Christmastime at the Co-op Supermarket with them.  They cost £1 each and when you have stuck 49 into the little booklet, they give you £1 for free.  Very yesteryear but I feel nothing to do with ASDA Rewards so I will leave it at that.

I am convinced that Co-op will be the next supermarket to go under.

Our local small ish co op has not long reopened after a major refurb, it’s nice in there now for a local shop. Costa coffee machine and hot breakfast items have the local builders in there every morning.

I agree that the stores look smarter - but prices are just ridiculous and they cannot continue to profit from locals on tight budgets. I know of 2 in Essex that are being replaced by other supermarkets in the near future.

Absolutely agree, the prices in my local one is ridiculous but no local competition.
