B&Q’s arrangement with Blue Light Card works through discounted B&Q Shopping Cards rather than a percentage code. Members buy the card for less than face value via a Blue Light Card account and spend the full balance in store or online, and the card stays valid for five years, long enough to hold for a planned kitchen or garden project.
B&Q Club
B&Q Club costs nothing to join and has included £5 off a first order, member-only codes and spend-and-save events through the year. Promotions aimed at Blue Light Card holders, such as extra reductions on selected clearance lines, also appear from time to time.
The Diamond Card
The over-60s Diamond Card, which gave 10% off on Wednesdays, closed to new members in September 2018. Existing holders can still use it, but it cannot be applied for, whatever older guides suggest.
TradePoint
TradePoint is the trade-only arm of B&Q, with dedicated counters in larger stores and its own website for online orders. Its discount card is aimed at trade customers and is also issued through some trade and landlord associations, and the discount excludes delivery, gift cards, clearance and a few other categories.
Among the other DIY chains, Homebase and Wickes each have their own pages covering how their offers work.
