Find out how to extend your Tesco Clubcard vouchers in three easy steps

There's more than £13m worth of Tesco Clubcard vouchers are due to expire this month, and you'll lose them if you don't use them before midnight on November 30.

Clubcard holders earn one point for each pound spent at Tesco, which you can either use to save money on your shopping or fuel, or redeem them at up to three times the value to spend at Clubcard Partners, such as Pizza Express, Legoland or the RAC.

You receive your vouchers every three months with your Clubcard statement, but they are are only valid for two years. If you're unsure when yours will expire, and you've still got paper vouchers, you can check on the voucher itself. Alternatively, you can use the Tesco Clubcard website or app to check if you have any and when they will expire.

If you find your vouchers are about to expire but you don't want to use them yet, MoneySavingExpert has come up with a clever trick to extend the date by another two years - but you must do it before midnight on November 30.

The trick has three easy steps, but you'll need to do it for every voucher you want to extend:

  • Step 1: Find the smallest thing you will use on the Tesco Clubcard Rewards page, such as a 50p restaurant voucher (worth £1.50 at your chosen restaurant). There's no minimum spend.
  • Step 2: Make a small purchase on the Tesco Clubcard Rewards page (not in store or on other Tesco pages) and the remaining balance is credited back to your Clubcard account as points.
  • Step 3: Your points will then be reissued as new vouchers with an expiry date up to two years in the future when you next get a batch. So if you spend 50p using a £10 Clubcard voucher, you'll get £9.50 back as new vouchers.

Chris Newlands, news and investigations Editor at MoneySavingExpert, said: "£13 million worth of Tesco Clubcard vouchers about to expire is an eye-watering amount, and it is a great shame to see this going to waste. But there is still time to act, and if you can't find the time or motivation to use them all up before the end of the month deadline, then we have a simple trick: make a small purchase."
