Anyone know when the next points to vouchers round is?
Just converted £50 of TopCashBack into Tesco Points so will be converting to Avios as soon as possible.

It was last week wasn't it? My vouchers are now showing in my account from the last quarter. If you mean after that, I guess February/March time?

Thanks to this thread, and having returned to live in UK after 11 years overseas, all our new homeware and christmas shopping is gift-card related - tragic addiction!

£60 Tesco 6mth delivery pass, gets 1,500 pts = £60*Pay £60 upfront for a 6-month anytime delivery pass, plus up to £60 in rewards
4 days left
Shop online for groceries at Tesco and delivery normally costs £3-£6. But you can buy a delivery pass that gets you free deliveries for an upfront fee. For regular Tesco online food shoppers, this could be a decent money-saver, plus there's a code to cut the cost and get a wodge of 1,500 Clubcard points on top.
How does the pass work? For six months, you'll get free delivery at any time for grocery orders over £40 (ie, not depending on the time of day), on Tesco Wine, and for £10+ orders at Tesco Direct.
How do I get it? Go via this special Tesco Delivery Saver* link before Sun 10 Nov. Click the 'find out more' tab under the 'Anytime Plans' section, and click 'sign up' under the '6 month pay upfront' section.
Enter code DDJ43K4D36C to cut the price by a penny from £60 to £59.99 (big whoop!). This also gets you 1,500 Clubcard points.
Why are 1,500 points worth £60? If you spend them in-store on groceries, points are worth 1p each - so 1,500 are worth £15. However, you can boost that value 2x to £30 on six specific Tesco departments including clothing, baby and fragrance. Or boost the value 4x, up to £60, by exchanging them for days out, restaurant vouchers, cinema tickets and more. Full details in the Reclaim Tesco Points guide.
Please note: While the points are not mentioned anywhere, Tesco confirms to us that they will be added by your February statement.
Is it worth it? As a very rough rule of thumb, if you're likely to do one shop a week (based on an average £4 delivery slot), it's likely to save you cash in the region of £36.
If you generally pick cheaper delivery time slots, it'll save you less; while if you usually go for pricier slots, it'll save you more. Plus the more regular a shopper you are, the better this deal is (though obviously, don't shop more just because of the pass!)
Who can get it? If you haven't bought a Delivery Saver pass in the past, then you can get it.
WARNING! This is a subscription service. You must cancel at least a day before the six months are up (Tesco will email you seven days before to remind you), or your subscription will be renewed automatically at £60. Call customer services on 0800 323 4040 to cancel.

You can usually get this offer without the points for half price from time to time.

Yup - they just ran a half price offer emailed out to Tesco credit card holders in October, with other codes still floating around. However, some might think it was worth paying for the clubcard points...

As a Uni student, six of us share this Delivery Saver plan and regularly make the £40 minimum spend - the price of Vodka today?!?!?! (£9.70!!).
As a toast to Wozza2404 , add painkillers to your shop - Tesco has no restriction online but when the delivery comes they are forced to restrict it to 100 tables - which, if you ordered £30.30 worth brings you below the minimum spend for the delivery saver!
(and as such they do not charge delivery)
