I cashed in my lightspeed points for a £25 amazon e voucher to use on present, which has taken my 10mths to reach this point level. Still an easy £25 earnt.

Thought I'd cash them in now and get a voucher in plenty of time to use before the Christmas rush!

Me again, is it right that once you reach your first £20 amazon voucher on dooyoo, you can get amazon vouchers for every £5 thereafter.

Yeah but watch this one as you have to have 20k in your account at all times.

Eg. You earn first 20k and cash it out, you have to work up to 20k again before you can cash out.

If you have 25k in your account and then cash out 5k, you still have 20k left in, you can work up another 5k and cash out etc.

- not sure which is better. cashing the full 20k out makes me work harder to get up to the 20k threshold!

Yeah but I can for the first time look forward to Christmas with the help of people on here.Not just the tips on how to save and get more for your money.But the feeling that it isnt a crime if you can't buy every single expensive load of rot that is mentioned in the school playground,tv or from our kids.You have all given me this Christmass to look forward to.

I have just counted the loose change that is in my money tin, and there is a grand total of £25.08, plus £39 in my christmas fund bank account so that added to my vouchers is.....................hold on while i get a pen and paper to work it out................£159.08, broken down into £95 in various vouchers and £64.08 in cash, yay me. I need to change my signature as most of that has been spent on christmas and birthday presents, i have quite a bit for christmas now.

i now need to get back on the cashback sites, as most of them seem to take about two months to all come through, now is the time to do them, so that the money is there for christmas.
