Lizzie Reynolds, Tesco Group membership and loyalty director said: "The summer holidays are an expensive time of year for families, with many people looking to find affordable ways to entertain the kids.
"Clubcard vouchers could go towards everything from a family visit to a theme park to a day out at a castle, so I'd urge Clubcard members to check their vouchers and make sure they don’t miss out."
TESCO'S CLUBCARD SCHEME
Tesco's Clubcard scheme allows shoppers to earn points as they shop, these points can then be turned into vouchers for money off food or other reward partner schemes.
When you spend £1 in-store or online, you get one point when you scan your card or app.
Drivers using Clubcards now get one point for every two litres spent on fuel.
One point equals 1p, so 150 points gets you £1.50, for example.
You'll need a minimum of 150 points to request a voucher.
These vouchers can either be worth the face value to spend in-store at Tesco, or you can double their worth to spend at reward partners, including restaurants, and on days out.
Loyalty card holders can also get cheaper prices on over 8,000 items thanks to Clubcard Prices.
These Clubcard prices save the average member £360 on their annual shop, according to Tesco.
