Tesco announce Clubcard Christmas Savers scheme in July amid cost of living crisis

With just 158 days to go before Christmas, Tesco is helping its customers get ahead for the festive season with its Clubcard Christmas Savers.

While we sizzle in a heatwave, Tesco have reminded customers who get paid monthly that there are only five pay days until December 25. As the cost of living rises, the festive saver account allows Clubcard members to save the vouchers they collect as they shop throughout the year

With the average weekly shop for a family of four costing £99.40, shoppers could save at least 1,292 in points if they start saving today, which is the equivalent of £12.92 or an extra present under the tree. Clubcard members collect one point for every £1 they spend in-store and online, and one point for every £2 they spend on fuel.

Lightning-fast shoppers who sign up by July 21 will see an additional benefit. Customers can put points they earned on shopping and fuel purchases from May to July into their August Clubcard Points Statement. The supermarket hopes this will help families be even more prepared for the festive season.

Along with that, customers can save even more by topping up their account with cash to turn into vouchers and get a bonus from Tesco. The bonuses range from £1.50 for a £25 top up, through to £12 for a £200 top up – that’s up to six per cent added to their savings.

And come November, just ahead of the big festive shop, account holders will be sent all their vouchers. Shoppers can then use their Clubcard Christmas Savers balance to spend on groceries, fuel and presents, such as toys in-store or with Clubcard Rewards partners to give the gift of family days out, spa days or magazine subscriptions. Vouchers are also worth up to three time more with Clubcard Rewards, so customers can really spoil their loved ones with an experience this Christmas.

Alessandra Bellini, CCO at Tesco said: “We know that many of our customers are feeling the financial squeeze this year and could do with a little help towards Christmas. The Clubcard Christmas Savers is a savvy way to spread the cost of Christmas, without compromising on the things that bring us joy at such a special time of year.

"It’s just one of the ways we’re helping customers to spend less at Tesco.”
