This included more than £16million in vouchers that can be used for activities such as days out with the family or eating out at restaurants.
Ahead of the deadline tonight, Tesco has sent emails to customers and encouraged them to check their Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app to check to see if any of their vouchers or reward codes are set to run out.
In May, Ashwin Prasad, the supermarket's chief commercial officer, outlined what shoppers are at risk of losing if they let vouchers expire.
He said: "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.”
When shopping using a Clubcard, , customers earn points that can either be converted into vouchers which can be used to slash the costs of food, or with Reward partners.
