Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Last chance for 3,600 Avios with a £60 Tesco grocery order

Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission.  See here for all partner links.

This is a final call for anyone who has yet to use the current Tesco Grocery bonus code to earn an easy 3,600 Avios or 3,750 Virgin Flying Club miles.

Using code XXPJPY, you will receive 1,500 bonus Tesco Clubcard points when you do a £60 grocery spend.  The code is due to expire on 30th June.

This code does not work for everyone. It will definitely work if you open a new Tesco Clubcard account. It is also working for people who have not done a Tesco grocery order for ‘a while’ – although it is not clear how long ‘a while’ is.  It worked fine for me but I have not done a Tesco grocery order for at least a year.

The quickest way to see if it works is to go to the Tesco grocery site and do a dummy order for £60 (search for ‘veuve’ and put two bottles in your basket!). Click checkout, select a random delivery slot, go to the payment page (do not put in a credit card number) and enter the code. The box is halfway down the payment page.

The voucher is then stored on your account. You do NOT need to complete the dummy order – the code will still be there if you do another grocery order later on.

If you don’t want to order your groceries from Tesco, consider spending £60 on some wine, nappies, dishwasher tablets or other expensive branded items which you buy anyway. It is a very easy 3,600 Avios or 3,750 Virgin Flying Club miles if you only buy items you need anyway.

Remember that Tesco has recently dropped the price of off-peak delivery slots to just £1 so the delivery charge may be nominal if you pick the right time.

You order needs to be delivered by Monday 30th June because the bonus points are not triggered until the goods are packed.  If you want to get a delivery slot over the busy weekend period then you should get onto it today.

    Worked for me – picking up two bottles of bubbly and some Fairy Liquid bright and early tomorrow morning.

  • Rob says:

    Used this code a few times over the last couple of weeks, on a number of accounts that I hadn’t used in a long time plus a couple of new ones I registered last week. Orders all successfully placed and being delivered this week. How long does it take for these points to appear in my Clubcard account(s)? The delivery note shows that the bonus points were awarded, but so far (delivery +3 days) the points have not appeared.

    Thanks for the heads-up with this code. Much appreciated!

    • squills says:

      Points should be added to a/c within 24 hrs normally

    • Rob says:

      Give it another 24 hours. All the points will arrive at once (base and bonus).

      • Rob says:

        Thanks, points appeared overnight. With the help of that bonus points code I think my Avios total might exceed a quarter of a million for the first time. Just triggered an Amex companion voucher so I think the next reward flights for us might be a rare treat in First. Thanks once again for highlighting the code.

  • idrive says:

    how much time does it take to receive a clubcard at home?

    • Nick says:

      I’m getting a bit concerned about this, too. I collected my order on Monday, and no points (base or bonus) have posted. I’ve been to tescos since then, and those points have hit.

      • idrive says:

        the clubcard was delivered 5 days after . Though, when updated the clubcard number with the one printed on the card, the points on the old one disappeared and still have not been moved to the new one…
