Tesco Clubcard changes for customers with new deals on offer

Tesco Clubcard changes for customers with new deals on offer

The supermarket scheme has launched new deal giving three months of entry to some of the UK's top attractions including Alton Towers and Thorpe Park, plus new cinema offers.
While you can no longer triple up points - this ended a while ago - you can double up the value of your vouchers by spending them at Tesco's Reward Partners, such as Zizzi, Thorpe Park and easyJet Holidays. For example, 100 points are usually worth £1 to spend at Tesco – but if you exchange your vouchers for codes to use with a Reward Partner, 100 points are worth £2.
For £60 in Tesco Clubcard Vouchers members can now get a three months pass with Merlin Entertainments, with entry to Alton Towers Resort, the LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort, Chessington World of Adventures Resort, Thorpe Park, Cadbury World, SEA LIFE Aquariums and others across the UK.
There's also a deal running this week, until Sunday June 8, where Tesco Clubcard members can pick up tickets for the latest movies at Cineworld for £4 – which means exchanging only £2 of Tesco Clubcard vouchers at double their value for each ticket.
Up to four tickets can be purchased at the discounted rate with each booking, meaning that Clubcard holders can treat family or friends to the movies by using £8 worth of Tesco Clubcard Vouchers.
Cineworld is also offering a special £6 medium drink and popcorn deal, or for £1 extra customers can upgrade that to large.
Tesco Group Membership and Loyalty Director, Shama Wilson said: 'This is a big year for Tesco Clubcard as we mark 30 years of rewards for our Clubcard members.
'In 1995, the year Clubcard launched, some of the biggest movies included Toy Story, Batman Forever and GoldenEye, and thanks to this amazing deal with our Reward Partner Cineworld, Clubcard members can buy a ticket to watch some of today's biggest movies with just £2 worth of Clubcard Vouchers.'
To take up the deals, go to the Clubcard Rewards section of the Tesco app or Clubcard website and buy through the link - the Merlin pass details are here and the cinema ones are here. To get the drink and popcorn deal, customers will need to show their Clubcard when buying refreshments at the cinema.
How to check your Clubcard vouchers – and find ones you've lost
Tesco Clubcard vouchers are valid for two years from the date they were issued.
If you're unsure when yours expire or you've lost your paper vouchers, check on the Tesco Clubcard site or app - select 'Clubcard account' and then 'Vouchers'. You'll need your Clubcard number, which is printed on Clubcards and Clubcard key fobs.
Martin Lewis has a trick to extend Clubcard vouchers' lifespan
On his Money Saving Expert website, it says: "If your Clubcard vouchers are due to expire and you don't want to use them yet, you may be able to extend the expiry date by another two years.
"Technically, under the Clubcard T&Cs, Tesco can refuse a Reward Partner order if it decides you're trying to game the system by redeeming vouchers just to extend their validity – but we tested the trick at MoneySavingExpert.com Towers this month and it worked just fine."

It adds, buy something cheap on the Tesco Clubcard Rewards page or donate to one of its partner charities. The remaining balance is credited back to your Clubcard account as points. So if you spend 50p using a £10 Clubcard voucher, you'll get 950 points back (worth £9.50), and get the 50p item - or donate it.
"You can then swap your points for vouchers manually or wait for them to be converted with your next statement," says the site. "The expiry date for these new vouchers will be two years in the future.
"There's no minimum spend, but the aim's to shell out as little as possible. A good option might be a 50p restaurant voucher (worth £1 at your chosen restaurant). You'll need to do this for each individual voucher, so it's worth weighing up if it's actually worth it for smaller denominations. For example, if you've a £10 voucher it could be worth it. If you've got a handful of £1 vouchers, maybe less so."

Asda is still misfiring in supermarkets' non-existent price war

Five months ago, the talk in supermarket-land was of price wars. A wounded Asda, with the corporate hero Allan Leighton back at the helm 25 years after leading the last turnaround, was out to restore the chain's 'DNA' as the price-setter among the traditional groups. A 'pretty significant war chest' would be dedicated to the task, he promised. The group's owners – the private equity firm TDR Capital and the remaining Issa brother from the 2021 leveraged buyout – were prepared to suffer a 'material reduction in our profit' in the coming year in order to get the sales line moving again. Even shares in the mighty Tesco shuddered in the face of this apparent sudden shift in competitive conditions. So how's this price war going? Well, you'd struggle to tell it exists. Tuesday's scoreboard of market shares from the research group Worldpanel, formerly Kantar, told a familiar tale. Tesco and Sainsbury's, the two FTSE 100 firms, enjoyed a red-hot summer. Asda and Morrisons, the duo carrying heaps of buyout debt, did not. In Asda's case, sales were down for the 15th month in a row. In a trade where a movement of a single percentage point in market share counts as significant, the remarkable statistic is that Asda's slice of the grocery market has declined from 14.8% at the time of the buyout to 11.8%. In the old days, Asda used to jostle with Sainsbury's (15% today) to be second to Tesco. Now a still-expanding Aldi is on its heels with 10.8%. Over at Morrisons (8.4%), there are more signs of stability, but it is still about to be passed by Lidi on 8.3%. The moral looks simple and unsurprising: it is hard to throw punches when you're loaded up with buyout debt and face better-financed rivals. Tesco and Sainsbury's always have the option of dialling down their share buybacks, which are currently chunky, if more financial ammunition is required. Meanwhile, the UK operations of Aldi and Lidl are part of enormous privately-owned international groups that define the long-term in terms of decades, as opposed to private equity's half-decade. To be fair to Leighton, he always said a turnaround at Asda would take three to five years, so one shouldn't write him off. There is still plenty he can do beyond price-cutting to fix the basics. One suspects he'll stop the bleeding in the sales line soon enough when the benefit of an £800m investment in new IT systems kicks in. But the notion that a resurgent Asda could seriously imperil the progress of Tesco and Sainsbury's, which was the stock market's worry in March, always felt fanciful – and still does. The point about the 2021 buyout of Asda is that TDR and the Issa brothers used so little equity that they could de-risk their investment via various shuffles with petrol stations and sale-and-leaseback property transactions. Their original gamble is probably a winner even if Asda merely stabilises from here. By contrast, sustaining a serious price war might require another injection of equity, meaning fresh investment risks for them.

But as things look today, the talk of price wars was phoney and the real bargain was shares in Tesco, which dipped to 321p during the wobble in March and are now fully a pound higher. The improvement in Sainsbury's stock is almost as good. Neither would have happened if the price war had been real.

Fuming shoppers slam Tesco for huge change to popular meal deal

NO DEAL Fuming shoppers slam Tesco for huge change to popular meal deal Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TESCO is putting up its lunchtime meal deal by 25p in a move that will infuriate customers. The popular offer - consisting of a main, snack and a drink - currently costs £3.60, but will rise to £3.85 with a Clubcard from Thursday. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The Tesco meal deal will increase in price from £4 to £4.25 later this week Credit: Alamy For those without the supermarket's loyalty card, the price will increase to £4.25, up from £4. The price of the Premium meal deal will also change to £5.50, up from £5, for those with a Clubcard and £6 for those without. The news broke after an insider said it was now "hardly a deal", and posted a picture of shelf labels showing the new price. Another user responded to the thread on "Might as well get rid of the meal deal if Tesco keeps upping the price." A second added: "I will be boycotting the meal deal from when this hike occurs." A third moaned: "£3.60 i could still defend, getting a bit mad now tho." Exactly a year ago Tesco put up the price from £3.40 to £3.60, while non-Clubcard holders were charged £4, up from £3.90. And in October 2022, the deal increased for the first time in a decade from £3 to £3.40 for Clubcard members, and from £3.50 to £3.90 for those without a loyalty card. Tesco's lunchtime meal deal is hugely popular for its variety of choices, including sandwiches, wraps and sushi selections for the main options, snacks of crisps, chocolate and fruit, and drinks such as Lucozade and cold coffee. Other supermarkets offer similar deals, and have also sparked fury over price hikes. Save with secret codes In June, Sainsbury's raised the cost of its lunchtime meal deal by 20p, from £3.75 to £3.95. A Tesco spokesperson said: 'Our meal deal remains great value and the ideal way to grab lunch on-the-go at just for a main, snack and drink when bought with a Clubcard. 'With more than 20m possible combinations the Tesco meal deal has got something for every taste, from a classic Chicken Club Sandwich to Tesco Korean Style Chicken Dragon Rolls.' It's understood new products will be introduced into the Premium meal deal in the coming days, such as a new Finest Salmon Konbini Roll and Finest Gochujang Konbini Roll. Currently the most popular items in the basic meal deal are the Tesco Chicken Club Sandwich for main, Tesco Egg Protein Pot as the snack, and Coca-Cola 500ml. These would currently cost £6.50 when purchased separately, giving Clubcard members a saving of £2.65.
