Shoppers won't have to do anything extra to get the offers either as the bonus discounts will automatically be applied to Clubcard holders at the checkout both online and in-store.
How to reclaim lost Clubcard points
MOST people lose or forget their Tesco voucher but it's easy to claim back up to two years or unused vouchers.
The supermarket doesn't remind you of vouchers that you have leftover, so it's up to you to check.
Log into the Tesco Clubcard website and check for unspent vouchers.
You’ll see a tab saying "my vouchers" and this will list the ones you still have to spend.
You can print the vouchers to use them in store or note down the number and visit the to exchange them.
And if you forget your Clubcard it may be worth asking for the discount anyway as staff have been given instructions to make sure customers have a good shopping experience.
The document states: "To help make their experience better, explain that as a "one off" on this occasion only, you will honour this and let them have the discount."
If you don't have a Tesco loyalty card then it may be worth signing up for one now - it's free and you may be able to take advantage of the bonus scheme when it finally launches.
