Celebrate with UCount Rewards this Valentine’s Day

Need last-minute Valentine’s gifts? What about some thoughtful ways to spend the weekend of love? As a Standard Bank UCount Rewards member you can take advantage of all kinds of great deals. We also have simple ideas on how to make your love known – no skywriting or singing telegrams required.

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching (this Friday February 14 for anyone still in the dark) it may be too late to get a reservation at your favourite restaurant. But it’s not too late to scoop up some great deals with your UCount rewards points at our online mall.

Retro Chocolate Heaven Fondue Pot, R167.00

Stay in this weekend with a healthy supply of chocolate, strawberries and marshmallows. Score extra points with romantic music, scented candles and a bottle of bubbly.

Givenchy Ange Ou Demon Ladies Gift Set, R537.00

Spoil her with this sensual, oriental fragrance which is an exotic blend fresh, floral and woody notes. Send it to her office, place it on the front seat of her car or have it on the dinner table when she gets home. Presentation makes all the difference.

Givenchy Play Men’s Gift Set, R544.00

Men don’t often buy fragrances for themselves so this eau de toilette shaped like a MP3 player is sure to go down well. Especially because it’s an alluring blend of masculine bergamot, coffee flower, patchouli, mandarin orange, grapefruit, bitter orange, amyris wood, coffee flower, black pepper, and vetiver.

How to spend Valentine’s Day all loved up
Want to plan something special? Swipe your personal Standard Bank debit, credit or cheque card at any our participating rewards retailer stores and turn the weekend into something worth remembering.

Plan a picnic. You get up to 10%* back when you buy groceries from Checkers, Pick n Pay, Spar, Shoprite or Woolworths so stock up on fresh fruit, biscuits and cheese and a sweet treats and head to the park for some fresh air, filled with romance. Because you also get 2.25% back on general merchandise from Makro, why not set the mood with portable speakers and play that love mix you’ve been working on all week?

Run a bath: There’s a reason Clicks is most people’s one stop shop for all things loved up. Get up to 2.5%* back when you splash out on bubble bath, scented candles, scrubs and fresh towels. Remember you can also find Body Shop products at Clicks. Sometimes the best gift you can give someone is peace and quiet and little bit of pampering.

Do something nice: Repulsed by all things romantic and cheesy? Show someone you care by doing something you know they will appreciate. Like filling up their tank with petrol at any Caltex forecourt (plus you can get up to “R1 back for every litre of petrol you buy so it’s a win-win situation). Know your other half is due for new tyres? Go to Tiger Wheel & Tyre and get up to 6.5% in rewards points if you spend over R1501.

*The percentage of reward points you collect depends on what Tier you are in. Terms and conditions apply. To find out more about how UCount rewards points work or to sign up, visit the Standard Bank UCount website.
