Earn 100 Clubcard points with an Esso car wash

This offer has been running for a few weeks, but it has only just come to my attention – sorry.

According to the Esso Points website:

Collect 100 extra Tesco Clubcard points when purchasing one top wash or one set of 4 top washes at participating Esso Service Stations from 4th March 2014 until 28th April 2014

Here is the small print:

A top wash means a platinum car wash where available or a gold wash where no platinum is available. You must present your Clubcard or Clubcard key fob at the time of your purchase of either one top wash or one set of 4 prepaid top washes to qualify for the extra 100 Clubcard points.

If you’ve forgotten your Clubcard, or did not present it before payment, points may only be awarded up to seven days after the transaction or until 28th April (whichever is sooner), upon production of a valid receipt for one top wash or one set of 4 prepaid top washes at the site where the original transaction was made, and only at the sites marked * on the list of participating sites.

No retrospective award of points is possible at any site not marked with an * on this list. Presenting a car wash voucher for a top wash from a set of 4 prepaid vouchers does not qualify for any extra Clubcard points.

Reader David, who flagged this with me, said a Platinum wash was £9.50 where he lived.  It is presumably a better deal if you can find a car wash which only offers a Gold wash.

100 Clubcard points is, of course, good for 240 Avios points or 250 Virgin Flying Club miles.

The offer runs until April 28th.

How to earn Avios from UK credit cards (February 2023)

As a reminder, there are various ways of earning Avios points from UK credit cards.  Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses!

In February 2022, Barclaycard launched two exciting new Barclaycard Avios Mastercard cards with a bonus of up to 25,000 Avios. You can apply here.

You qualify for the bonus on these cards even if you have a British Airways American Express card:

There are two official British Airways American Express cards with attractive sign-up bonuses:

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 21st February 2023, the sign-up bonus on the British Airways Premium Plus American Express card is increased to 35,000 Avios from 25,000 Avios. You can apply here.

You can also get generous sign-up bonuses by applying for American Express cards which earn Membership Rewards points.

Run your own business?

We recommend Capital On Tap for limited companies. You earn 1 Avios per £1 which is impressive for a Visa card, along with a sign-up bonus worth 10,500 Avios.

You should also consider the British Airways Accelerating Business credit card. This is open to sole traders as well as limited companies and has a 30,000 Avios sign-up bonus.

There are also generous bonuses on the two American Express Business cards, with the points converting at 1:1 into Avios. These cards are open to sole traders as well as limited companies.
