divy

divy, divvy
The Cooperative Society in the North of England operated a scheme whereby each time a purchase was made in one of their stores, a small amount (a dividend, hence divy) was added to your account. At the end of the month, this would be used by the shopper towards future purchases

"Eh, I've spent so much at the Coop this month, I'll be able to get a telly with the divy"
