How to get a little bit extra at Tesco

Tesco’s Clubcard loyalty scheme normally pays 1 point for every £1 you spend at the supermarket chain.

But it’s relaunched a promotion, which runs until 31 December, where for every £4 you spend in store you get an extra point if you pay via its app.

That’s effectively 25% extra Clubcard points. Moneysavingexpert explains how to do it.

Up to 16.2 million UK households could be owed money by their energy supplier, because they’ve paid for more gas or electricity than they used over winter.

That’s according to Moneysupermarket which reckons that the 59.6 per cent of Brits who pay for gas and electricity through a fixed monthly direct debit could have paid over the odds.

Those unsure if their supplier owes them money can find out by taking electricity and gas meter readings and contacting their provider with up-to-date information.

3 for 2 on make up

Superdrug has a 3 for 2 offer on all B Makeup at the moment. Primers, bronzers, lip colours, mascara and brow shapers are all part of the deal which runs in stores until 24 April.
