Mccain Spud Shillings Will be Closing 19th december 2012

I regular visit the Mccains Spud shillings and have successfully received vouchers from them. On my visit just now on the "MY PLACE" page there is a sticky not saying:- "Spud Shillings will be closing 19TH DECEMBER 2012 - Make sure you redeem your Spud Shillings by this date and receive a great reward.".......HTH

Not sure where else to put this post, could someone suggest where else it could go, thanks

    just play the games and download a recipe PDF (no need to actually print off) next week to get 70 more points - you have till Dec to collect and spend.

    i must say i'm not surprised they're shutting it - i've had £40 worth of vouchers off them since i started doing it two years ago, all for doing nothing but play a few quick games - can't see what's in it for them...

    I didn't even play the games....just clicked play then came out of it...still gave the points:)

    You can earn a maximum of 105 points every week. Make sure you click on Collect 10 spud shillings when you sign up for more stuff and Tweet (you don't actually have to tweet as long as the window pops up) on one of the games. I don't think it's possible to earn more than 105 points but I'd be happy for someone to prove me wrong. ;)

    I've had £100 worth of Amazon vouchers and hope to get at least £30 more before it ends.

    Are people still collecting spud shillings? I just went to the page to collect a few more and can't see where I can collect them from, hope they have not stopped the collection option yet as I only need another 110 to get my £10 voucher

    You can get points by playing the games here http://www.mccain.co.uk/games/

    In fact, you don't actually have to play them - just open each one, let it load and then close it again. If you refresh the page you'll see you'll have got 10 points.

    If you click the Twitter button in any of the games (even if you don't use Twitter) you'll get 25 points.

    You can get another 20 by printing a recipe - although again you don't actually have to print it, just click Print This Recipe and your total will go up.

    You can do all of the above once a week and gain a total of 105 points.
  • How long have people been waiting for their vouchers, I ordered some ages ago and still havent received them :-(

    I received mine yesterday - an Arcadia Voucher. Oddly enough, it arrived in an envelope with the address pigsback.com and had been posted from Ireland. Weird.

    I did receive an email on 14 September, apologising that the vouchers had not been sent out and saying that they hoped to dispatch them by the 21 September.

    I have just ordered another £5 voucher so who knows when that will arrive :)

    Hope you get yours soon.

    Hello
    Would anyone else be having a problem redeeming their spud shillings?
    I have just built up 2000 and have ordered a £20 M&S voucher, the next page takes me to 'edit my details' to make sure they have my correct address etc. Then I have to redeem the spud shillings again. When I do this I'm taken through the same proceedure again and again. I can't seem to find a way out of this circle. :undecided
    I would be grateful for any help as I have until next Wednesday.
    I left it this long as I've been trying to build up my points.
    Thank you.
