Other supermarket Christmas schemes

Other supermarkets also run similar schemes to allow customers to save some money in the run-up to Christmas.

Morrisons shoppers can receive a money-off voucher by participating in the Christmas Collector scheme, which lasts five weeks.

The bonus voucher can then be spent over the Christmas holidays, but the exact dates change every year, so you should always check beforehand.

If you fail to cash the vouchers in by the expiry date, they expire.

To take part, you need to register online for the Morrisons More loyalty club, through the app, or talk to customer services.

Asda customers can save money with the supermarket’s Christmas Savings Card.

Depending on your balance on bonus day, customers will be rewarded with a cash bonus.

You will need to top up your card by 5pm on November 10, 2024, and Asda will top it up by 9am on Monday 11, 2024.

You will get a bonus of £1 for saving £30-£79.99, £3 for £80-£129.99, £6 for £130-£179.99, £9 for £180-£229.99, £12 for £230-£279.99, and £15 for £280 or more.

Iceland’s Bonus Card pays a bonus of up to 20% to customers.

This is not a Christmas bonus per se but can be used over the festive period.

It gives customers £1 extra to spend in stores when you save £20 on them, with a maximum of £1,000 saved per card.

Sainsbury’s has a Christmas Club Card that allows you to receive a 5% cash bonus when you save throughout the year.

The maximum value you can load onto Christmas Club Card is £1,975.

You can save from January to November 1 to get your bonus in time for Christmas.

The card can be used at Sainsbury’s and Argos, both in-store and online.

You’ll need to spend £48 to fill up your booklet with stamps, which cost £1 each.

When you spend that £48 in December, you will get a bonus of £2 to shop with.
