Nice one don't forget you can spend them in Argos as well as Sainsbury just hand it over when you pay.

Just checked my bank and there has been £1.79 credited from Hive Online Ltd. After doing a Google check, it turns out it is a refund from a 'try me free' tea offer. Every little helps I suppose.Sealed Pot Challenge #8 £341.90
