Today there are a number of reward schemes on offer at supermarkets that we can sign up to, from Clubcard points at Tesco to Nectar points at Sainsburys.
By the 1960s, Green Shield had become a leading brand in the UK. And with that, lots of shops and most supermarkets and petrol stations, including Tesco, signed up to the scheme and gave away stamps with every purchase. The illustration shows all the family with the new items on offer at Tesco just in time for Christmas, with Green Shield stamps available at the Rochdale branch on Silk Street. Men's clothing included dressing gowns for £3.75, printed cotton winceyette pyjamas for £1.95, terylene cotton shirts at £2.25, polyester ties for 95p and nylon short socks for only 20p.At its height, Green Shield Stamps were also immortalised in music.
