A DISCOUNT card taking Andover by storm has signed up a national chain as its 150th associate, offering 10 per cent off its stock.

The Lifestyle Card, pioneered by former HR manager Sean Caruana, is available for companies to give out to its employees and reap the rewards.

Sports Direct in Andover is the latest store to sign up, offering discounts, including on sale items.

Sean said: “It’s another milestone achieved and we are really pleased that it’s with one of the most popular retail outlets in the area.

“Participating businesses offering discounts have nearly doubled since our launch in September.

“We have had positive feedback with the local companies that have purchased the cards for their employees, as well as appreciating the huge savings many members like the fact that the card is so user friendly.”

Other new additions include The Hawk Inn, The Peat Spade, The Owls Nest, The Tea Cosy and Costa Drive Thru and over 30 venues in the food and entertainment category in Andover and the surrounding areas.

Sports Direct store manager Chris Whitaker added: “Myself and the company think it’s a great way to support local stores but also give something back to our customers and allowing their money go that bit further.”

Lifestyle card members can show their card at participating stores and the discount will be deducted off their purchase.
