In true frugal fashion, I’ve picked up loyalty cards to all sorts of stores during my travels. Somewhere in my wallet is a Fry’s Shopper Card from the last time I was in Arizona, as well as a punch card for a coffee shop in London. Today, I ran an errand for my dad at the grocery store Tesco, and picked up a Tesco Club Card while I was there. With Tesco’s system, you earn 2 points for every £1 you spend, and after you collect 150 points, you receive a voucher for £1.50 off your next purchase. I can’t imagine I’ll ever spend enough at Tesco to earn any vouchers, but it doesn’t hurt to add another rewards card to my arsenal – hey, you never know when they’ll come in handy!
I do this too!
If you utilize coupons, do not hurry out to utilize them without delay. Supplied your discount coupons do not expire, it’s an excellent idea to hold onto them until you can use them during a sale on the exact same products for which they supply cost savings. You will manage to obtain even more cost savings in this manner.
