Free Clubcard points

A clever trick my girlfriend and I found is this.
Has anyone noticed if you forget your clubcard, you'll get a reciept with a barcode on the bottom which you can take to customer services and they'll update your card with them?
Well if you look on the ground outside tescos, (or even in a bin outside the store) people throw their reciepts away and many have the barcode on, we collect them and go to customer services and they happily put them on.
We got about 43 points last week by doing this. The highest in one go was a reciept with 16 points on, but they all add up. :A
We just say at customer services that we forgot our card last time we went shopping and can we have them put on and they are fine with it.
We also go to 3 of our local stores so they don't suspect.

Sometimes they will only let you put one receipt per visit on the card, still thats only certain people and you can just go out and back in again!!!

Pick up a cardboard temporary card by the tills and use that. You can get those points added to your own clubcard if you phone clubcard O8OO no.
If you use the temporary card you will get a voucher welcoming you to Tesco cc and a voucher for 100 points extra on first time of use.
You can give that in at the tills when shopping.0 -
when you get the temp card, doesn't it print a voucher for use at the next shop?
if so, couldn't it be used on your own clubcard?

Yes .. use the voucher with your own clubcard!!
If you just buy something for £1 or more and use a new cardboard card each time you will get a voucher for 100 points each time!
If you keep all the cardboard cards and ring Tesco cc they will add all the points on to your own clubcard!!!!0 -
We were in one of our local stores and I got the trolley, as usual...
Saw 2 receipts in the bottom... One was a food receipt with 52 points available... the other was 5p off a litre of petrol!!! - well worth the find with the price of petrol atm!
