Tesco Clubcard alert: Shoppers urged to take action as voucher expiration deadline looms
An important deadline is only weeks away for Tesco shoppers
PA
Tesco shoppers have less than two weeks left to use their Clubcard points before they expire at the end of the month.
The country's biggest supermarket chain is known for its popular rewards scheme which offers consumers a sizable discount on their shopping bill.
Some £14million in Clubcard vouchers are set to expire by Saturday, August 31, 2024.
Vouchers are only valid for two years from the date when they are issued unless customers are able to extend them.
If shoppers do not know when their Clubcard vouchers expire, but still have them in a paper format, they should be able to check the date on the physical voucher.
Anyone who is unsure if they have vouchers to begin with can check either Tesco Clubcard website or app.

Shoppers are anxiously looing for new deals to save money amid the cost of living crisis PAWhen checking through the Tesco website, customers should click "Clubcard account" followed by "Vouchers".
In order to do this, customers will need to be registered for a Tesco.com account and must know their own Clubcard number.
This number is printed on Clubcards and Clubcard key fobs.
Customers should be able to see a table listing all of their available vouchers and their respective expiry dates.
If customers want to check the status of their Clubcard points on the Tesco app, open it up, they can open it up, go to "Clubcard" and then click the "Vouchers" section.
Once someone has found their vouchers, they can either be spent online at the supermarket or in-store.
Clubcard points can also see their value doubled if they are spent at one of Tesco's Reward Partners, which include Disney+, Prezzo and Cineworld.
An example given is that 500 points are usually worth £5 when used at Tesco, but the value of these points is doubled to £10 when shopping at one of the supermarket's Reward Partners.
According to Tesco, customers who have a Clubcard could save up to £360 a year by taking part in the money-saving scheme.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
Shoppers are being urged to use their Clubcard points before its too late
TESCOEarlier this year, Ashwin Prasad, Tesco's chief commercial officer, urged shoppers to use their Clubcard points before the end of May as millions of pounds worth of vouchers were at risk of expiring.
Prasad explained: "People across the UK will be looking forward to two Bank Holiday weekends in May and thinking about how they can make the most of them.
"Tesco Clubcard holders can use the power of Clubcard to unlock all sorts of Bank Holiday fun, from saving on their shopping when they pick up their BBQ food, or to exchanging for double the value with 100-plus Reward Partners, offering everything from fun days out for the family to meals out at some of the UK’s most popular restaurant chains.
"With millions of vouchers expiring at the end of this month, we are urging everyone to make the most of their Clubcard this May and check to see if any vouchers or reward codes are expiring."
