I also got 21 points for the shopping, based on the gross value of the purchase. (I used some prepaid coupons so the 'cash' value was £21-ish and the payment card value £16-ish.)

Hi
I am trying to pre order the Cliff Richard CD - my mum will like it - but it keeps showing Clubcard points 3 points. I have got as far as the check out but don't really want to put in my card details if i am not going to get the 150 points.
Does anyone know if this promotion has ended? Or am i doing something wrong?

I see tesco are planning on opening a store in NQY. Should help on your points collecting - is it something you campaigned for?

Anyone made use of the MR points > Tesco gift card offer? 4k points for £100 Tesco vouchers? (Usually 24k points for £100)

£1,300 for a 52,000 Amex Platinum bonus.
Or a £100 refund plus 1,000 points for making a £100 forex transaction to earn the 5K bonus (shame it probably won't arrive in time
)Was going to turn my MR's into Jumeirah points but that is sooooooo tempting. That's about 3 months worth of food!
Weird, it doesn't seem to have been promoted anywhere, where did you see it?
I think I'm going to do this!
Hell, it's even worth buying your annual limit of 10,000 MR's at £150 in order to do this!

If you are going to I would advise to do it sooner rather than later as the £25 and £100 denominations appear to have sold out and just £50 ones left! Doesn't appear to be a limit on amount you can order though

It is incredible! I was just browsing the MR site and saw it there under the new partner offers tab. I thought it was an error at first, but managed to place an order successfully!

Sod it, I'm doing this, It's a no brainer i think. I'm also going to purchase the annual limit of 10,000 MR's on our 3 MR account
Tesco's aren't going to go bust.........Are they?
£15 per 1,000 MR points = £25 Tesco voucher = No brainer!

I can still order all demonimations - I'd been holding onto my platinum bonus for a Avios offer but £1300 not to be overlooked lightly.

Yeah it would offer me all 3 but then when I went through to confirm order I just got an error. I phoned Amex and they said it 'appeared' that the £100 was out of stock but they can't physically check for some reason.
As it happened I was looking to get an iPad with my MR points, albeit not great value buying with points. Will now buy from Tesco for a fraction of the points cost!
