£10 for free from B & Q and its really free

A loophole left open with the B & Q store card allows anyone who signs up for the card to get a £10 free voucher to spend in store.

The good bit is there is no minimum spend, i.e. buy a tape measure about 89p, the bill comes minimum payment is £4, you then have £13.11 to spend in store for just 89p outlay!

The voucher comes the month after you take out the card and there are no catches, you don't even need to ever use it again. No annual fee and no commitment, you can't go wrong.

Just pop into B & Q and ask for a YCDI card the credit application takes about 2 minutes and your paper is valid right away. Just buy something small within 2 month of taking up the offer and a month later you have £10 of free goods from B & Q.

Leave the box open for mailings, B & Q offer some pretty good deals in a card holder mag, like further £10 or £20 off and also 20 % off, only for card holders.


If you are into no interest credit cards and no ned to pay up for 4month you can also opt for a homeplan account that allows you to pay it off within 4 month at no cost to you, take out another after the 4 month.

The offer even comes with a customer service guarantee.

    Your outlay is the £3.11 that you have overpaid to get the £13.11, ie you are £10 up on the deal (obviously), not £13.11 !

    That is like the 'confusing change' scam (see 'the real hustle' anyone?)

    For a tenner I wouldn't waste a credit check against my credit file,but it may be worth it if you used the additional card benefits as a card holder.
