Shops bought Green Shield Stamps and gave them away to customers for buying at their shop and to tempt them to come back.You saved the stamps in books provided and you were also given at the time a catalogue with gifts in,when you had enough books filled you could exchange them for gifts to that value either by post, or there was a shop at Blackpool where you could go and choose there.

Good explanation or not?
