We've recently celebrated signing up our 300,000th member by dishing out dividend to 301 lucky winners.
David Todd (25) was the 300,000th person to sign up, and has been given £300 worth of dividend, which he can spend in any business area – ranging from food stores and petrol stations to travel branches and a florist.
The other 300 members to benefit from dividend pay outs were randomly selected, receiving £30 dividend on their cards on Friday 4th February - you could be among them!
Reaching this milestone demonstrates how far the society has come over the years - it was first founded in 1861, and by the end of the first ever quarter there were 74 members.
Today, our members collect dividend as they shop, access a range of member benefits, vote for who sits on our Board of Directors and have their say at our Annual Members' Meetings.
