Best ways to spend Tesco Clubcard vouchers including holidays and days out as £11m in rewards set to expire

If you have a Tesco Clubcard make sure you check your account for any vouchers that are about to expire.

The supermarket estimates a whopping £11million worth will go out of date at the end of August.

You can use the vouchers at face value to cut down the cost of your weekly shop.

But there are actually better ways to squeeze more value from the rewards by using them with Tesco partners.

You can save money on holidays and days out, as well as a fancy dinner.

With household budgets still under pressure, using your vouchers strategically can actually leave more money to spend elsewhere.

We've rounded up some of the best ways to make your Tesco Clubcard vouchers go further.

Tesco Clubcard Cineworld £5 tickets: Cheap cinema trips on Tuesdays

Tesco Clubcard members can double their voucher value when spending with Cineworld.

Even better, you can get Cineworld 2D cinema tickets for just £5 on Tuesdays, the offer means you need just £2.50 in Clubcard vouchers to get a mid-week visit to the cinema.

This is a great way to use your vouchers and save on a trip to the big screen.

It's not just Cineworld that Tesco has partnered with. You can also double the value of vouchers with Picturehouse cinemas to cover the cost of tickets.

Turn £10 of Tesco Clubcard vouchers into £30 at selected restaurants

One of the best ways of using your vouchers is with the supermarket's restaurant partners.

Here you can triple the value of vouchers to spend on food at Prezzo, ASK Italian, Las Iguanas, Bella Italia, PizzaExpress, Frankie & Benny's and Zizzi.

That means £10 of Clubcard vouchers could give you £30 to spend with one of these venues.

So if you're planning a meal out anyway, this could be a much better use of your vouchers than simply taking £10 off your Tesco shop.

Use Tesco Clubcard vouchers for days out at Legoland, Alton Towers and more

Tesco reward partners include popular days out and resorts, giving you a great option for rounding off the summer holidays.

You can double the voucher value spending the vouchers in this way with £10 in vouchers becoming £20 to spend.

For example, Legoland Windsor Resort admission currently offers £1 of value for every 50p in Clubcard vouchers.

As well as Legoland, you can double value at Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, Chessington and Warwick Castle among others.

Make sure you find out the cost of the day out first and only exchange enough vouchers to cover what you actually need to spend.

Use Clubcard vouchers for a holiday with easyJet, P&O and more

If the end of summer has you feeling blue and you have a big stash of vouchers, holidays can be a great way to make them go further.

Tesco has partners covering holidays, hotels and travel, including easyJet, P&O, hotels.com and Forest Holidays.

Again, you can double the value of vouchers getting £1 to spend for every 50p in Clubcard vouchers.

This is great if you're already planning a holiday and can use the vouchers to replace money you'd otherwise have to take from your savings or current account.

Don't exchange vouchers until you've checked the small print

Getting three times the value sounds great, but don't rush to convert your vouchers without doing a few checks first.

This is because once you exchange Clubcard vouchers for a Reward Partner code, there are restrictions on how and when it can be used.

Reward partner codes are generally valid for six months, although individual terms can differ. They cannot be exchanged for cash and unused or expired codes generally can't be refunded or exchanged.

So make sure you check:

• Where the code can be used

• When it expires

• Whether you need to book in advance

• Whether it can be used with other discounts

• Whether there are excluded dates

• Whether you can use it for part payment

• Whether the offer is online or in-store only

How much are Tesco Clubcard vouchers worth?

Your Clubcard points are converted into vouchers, with 150 points worth £1.50 in Clubcard vouchers.

You can use the vouchers at their face value with Tesco, including towards your grocery shop and fuel, or exchange them for Reward Partner codes.

This can double or even triple the value of your vouchers, turning £1.50 into up to £4.50.
