A TESCO shopper has managed to swap £110 in Clubcard points for a massive £330 in holiday vouchers.
It comes as shoppers have just hours left until the supermarket giant cuts the value of points spent with reward partners.
By Wednesday, June 14, Clubcard vouchers will only be worth double their value if exchanged at any of Tesco's 100 reward partners.
However until then customers can exchange and triple the value of their points at various reward partners including Pizza Express and Zizzi.
One customer did just that – swapping £110 worth of Clubcard points for three times their value, which was an impressive £330 in holiday rewards.
Writing in a post to Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, the fan said: "Just your friendly reminder that you have two days left to get triple rewards on your Tesco club card points I’ve just changed mine .

But you'll need to be quick if you want access to rewards worth as much as that.
The change coming tomorrow means the value of Clubcard points will be much lower on things like family days out at Alton Towers Resort, meals at PizzaExpress, sunny getaways with Hotels.com and much more.
Customers wishing to avoid the points devaluation can do so by ordering partner codes before June 14.
These codes will still be worth the current rate and shoppers will have 12 months from their issue to redeem them.
How does the Tesco Clubcard scheme work?
Tesco's Clubcard scheme allows customers to earn points as they shop which can then be turned into vouchers for money off food or other partner schemes.
Each time you spend £1 in-store and online, you get one point when you scan your card or app.
You also get one point for every £2 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.
Once you have enough points, you can turn them into vouchers worth the face value to spend in-store at Tesco, or you can triple their worth to spend at reward partners, including restaurants, and on days out.
Clubcard holders also get cheaper prices on over 8,000 items thanks to Clubcard Prices.
It's also free to sign up to – you can do so online and you'll just need to fill in a quick few details to get set up.
It's best to download the Clubcard app from the App Store or Google Play for easy access, or you can opt to have a card sent through the post.
To find your nearest Tesco just use the store locator on its website, but remember you can use your Clubcard online too.
Other Clubcard changes coming on June 14
Drivers using Clubcards can currently get one point for every £2 of fuel they buy.
But from June 14, you will collect one point for every two litres instead.
The current average cost of a litre of unleaded in the UK was 143.10p as of May 8, according to the RAC, so two litres cost almost £2.86.
That means the majority of people will be getting less Clubcard value from buying fuel.

The change excludes Esso filling stations with a Tesco Express store.
For Tesco Bank customers, the number of points you collect will also depend on whether you use your card to collect points for fuel, to pay for fuel, or both.
