  • Thanks :A still thinking on selling some on ebay :undecided

    Well checked out pigsback for the fisrt time in a while and was surprised to have a balance of £3+ which is now £3.48 after some clicks. Apparently I get points at the cinema which was a nice surprise - still not going to cover the cost :rotfl:. Spent £10 on Love Bingo a st miniver site so should get 2250 points back for that so £10 profit. I have played £10 and am currently in profit (used slots and blackjack) so hoping I dont have to lose the £10 deposit as the rules state play through £10 to get points. Did first free scratch card and got 20p but cant remember if that went to bonus or not?

    One poll up a whole 5p to £10 so 1/4 of the way there :D:p

    Well done on the vouchers.
    You must spend loads in Tesco or is there a special way of getting points?
  • Main shopping at tescos and I have a tesco cc that I clear each month. Had it for years so I think I get a slightly better points deal. Not sure how OH got to £16.50 though usually he gets about a fiver if we are lucky. The vouchers come through every quarter.

    There are always extra points about especially for online shopping although I seem to too well known to Tesco on that now :( Have a look on the vouchers boards there is a discussion thread and a code thread. I signed up to all the Tesco clubs to get extra vouchers as well.

    These days even if you dont use them on the deals you can get double value in store on clothes etc.

    That *is* a good amount of Tesco vouchers - I got mine too but not that much! I'm hoping to use mine towards the Open University course I want to do and hopefully eventually towards our honeymoon:D What do you use yours for?

    I forgot you'd started a new thread and kept wondering where you'd gone!:rotfl:

    Generally use them for days out. Have used them for a haven holiday and a balloon flight for in laws. Spent £30 before hols in July on £60 of clothes. Not sure what Im going to use them for just keep collecting and used them adhoc.

    OU sounds good but studying another time demanding thing so putting off. Want to do CIMA. Work will help pay but its the time I cant put in. What course you looking at?
