Sadly, Morrisons has confirmed the discount isn't available online.
If you don't already have a Blue Light Card, keep in mind that a physical card costs £4.99 for two years.
While you can register for free online but you’ll need to prove your profession to qualify for the card.
If you're keen to get a Blue Light Card, just be aware that the £4.99 fee will eat into any savings you make with the 10% discount.
But it can work out cheaper in the long run if you're already a regular Morrisons shopper.
And if you've already got a Blue Light Card, remember to always compare prices to make sure what you're buying isn't cheaper elsewhere.
The discount at Morrisons isn't valid on a wide range of products, including fuel, tobacco, infant formula and stamps.
It also excludes spirits bought in England and any booze purchased in Scotland and Wales.
As part of the Blue Light Card deal, cardholders will also get early access to Morrisons stores between 6am-7am Monday to Saturday before shops open to other customers.
The dedicated shopping hour is the same already offered to NHS workers and school staff.
In April, many retailers rolled out freebies and discounts for NHS staff.
Around the same time, Morrisons also launched a 5% discount for farmers to say thanks for helping during coronavirus crisis
