Tesco has angered shoppers by announcing that it will be reducing the value of its popular Clubcard reward scheme from 14 June.

The UK’s biggest retailer said that after that date, shoppers would be able only to double the value of their Clubcard points – rather than triple them as now – when they spent them with one of its reward partners on a restaurant meal, day trip or cinema outing.
