With 160 days to go before Christmas and just five pay days left, Tesco is helping its customers get ahead for the festive season with its Clubcard Christmas Savers. The 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. Lightning-fast shoppers who sign up by July 21 will see an additional benefit.
Those who opt into Christmas Savers before this date can put all the points they receive in their August Clubcard Points Statement, earned on shopping and fuel purchases from May to July, towards their Clubcard Christmas Savers fund. 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 6 per cent added to their savings.
In 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 3 times more with Clubcard Rewards.
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.”
