There’s nothing we love more than a good deal — and Tesco is currently offering customers an easy way to get more out of their weekly supermarket shop.

The retailer has brought back its popular Clubcard Challenges scheme, which will be running from now until February 23.

As part of this, Tesco Clubcard holders may be able to earn up to £50 in bonus points over the next few weeks.

But the catch is, not everyone will be able to take part – only selected customers will be invited.

The promotion, which was first launched in August 2024, gave customers spending challenges they could complete to win points.

Each challenge is personalised, based on a shopper’s previous spending habits, and involves buying branded items – everything from Diet Coke to toothpaste, pet food, and chips.

This time around, eligible customers are able to pick up to 10 challenges to choose from, featuring a selection of brands they buy regularly.

All challenges will be shown via email or on the Tesco app — but don’t worry, if you change your mind, you can deselect one and choose another.

Up Next

The maximum amount of Clubcard points up for grabs that count towards your Tesco shop is 5,000 (equivalent to £50). This is what you could earn from completing all 10 challenges.

During a regular shop, £1 gets you one Clubcard point, with 100 of these adding up £1 in Tesco vouchers.

How do you know if you’re eligible for Clubcard Challenges?

To find out if you can take part in the Clubcard Challenges, keep an eye on your inbox and look for an email invitation from Tesco.

You can also keep checking the Tesco Grocery and Clubcard apps, as you will receive a notification if you’re eligible to partake in the promotion.

If you do get picked for the scheme, perhaps just think carefully about which challenges you try out. The team at MoneySavingExpert has previously warned shoppers not to use the promotion as an excuse to ‘overspend’.

They said: ‘Only buy what you were planning to anyway and see the challenges as an added boost if you do hit the targets.’

They urged people to keep four important ‘money mantras’ in mind when shopping, which are: ‘Do you need it? Can you afford it? Will you use it? And is it worth it?’

All very good questions!

This comes after Tesco recently confirmed a blast from the past was making a comeback.

The retailer has revived the iconic blue and white stripes from its 90s Tesco Value logo as part of a new campaign.

Tesco is reclaiming the Value label in a bid to rival discounters Aldi and Lidl, and it will use the blue and white stripe imagery as part of its Low Everyday Prices campaign.

The campaign has been running since 2020, but this new stage of it will see the return of the retro stripes on all the marketing, but with a modern twist.

Tesco says they’re being used to ‘symbolise value’ and ‘highlight the low prices available on leading branded products’.
