    The more I read about BB the more I'm tempted to try it!!

    I've done the "spends" budget for ages - I just take mine out of the cashpoint when I do the weeks shopping, and anything left of it at the end of the week goes into a savings tin. Works well for me because it's the little bits and bobs that you stick on a card without thinking that all add up.

    I didn;t realise BB were doing it for a while now, that's reassuring, means they may not snatch it away so quick.

    EH I worry that I would spend the odd couple of quid and it would never get back to the bank acc if I drew the money out, and I need all those small amounts being chucked at the loan NOW.

    I would try the BB though, not a lot to lose really.

    I've had a good day on Bingo port and redeemed for a fiver amazon so that's all in the pot for OH's xmas present.

    You have to deposit 5 pounds but then you get 5 pounds bonus every day for 30 days. If you don't win anything then you haven't lost much, but I have won 25 so far in about a week so not bad!

    wendz has pretty much summed it up there Jen. There's no cash back or referrals to be gained so go for it.
