If you’re like me, you’re always on the lookout for ways to ways to save money. I’ve written before about the Asda Christmas Savings Card where you can grab a £15 bonus. The new Asda School Shop Savings Card is along the same lines with another great bonus to be had. Let’s look at what it’s all about.
What Is The Asda School Shop Saving Card?
School uniform can be expensive. If you would love a bit of a helping hand, this is where the Asda School Savings Card can come into play. If you save onto one of these cards which you can pick up instore or order online, you get a bonus. This depends on how much you have saved onto the card.
You can use the card to pay for things both in store and online, including school uniform items at George. The uniform has a 100 day guarantee too. It is also affordable with some great prices. If you are looking for trousers, skirts, shorts, polo shirts, shoes and lots more, you can make your money go further with the Asda School Shop Savings Card.
It is not limited only to clothing though, so even if you don’t have kids but shop at Asda, you can use this as a great way to get a bonus.
What Bonuses Can You Get?
There is a range of bonuses available with the Asda School Shop Savings Card. These depend on how much you save on the card. It starts at £1 and goes up to £15 for the maximum amount. Simply save:

When To Save By?
Previously, you needed to have added your money to the card by early August. The date has now changed in line with the Asda Christmas savings card. It is now applied in November. The date will change each year so be sure you check when it is. Your bonus will be paid the next day. Be sure to check the Asda site for the dates for this year.
It is worth remembering that whilst the idea is that you save throughout the year, you can put the full amount on the card the day before. So you could save into your own savings account so you get some interest and then transfer it onto the card for the bonus the week before the bonus is due to be paid.
Protect Your Cash
Be sure that you register your Asda School Shop Savings Card on the website. This makes sure that your balance is safe if the card is lost.
Be Clever & Grab Your Cash
Remember, you don’t have to pay over the year, that is just what they encourage you to do. Just ensure you have the amount you want on the card before the cut off date and you’ll get your bonus paid onto your card. If you shop at Asda anyway, you might as well as the bonus! Remember though, you don’t get any extra bonus if you pay more than £280 onto the card. So you might as well start another card to get another bonus. There is no limit to the number of cards you can have. If you shop at Asda, why not get yourself a little bonus with the Asda School Shop Savings Card?
