All the small things - tell me what you have done to be MF today

I forgot my online shopping session yesterday!:
* googled for ideas for new bathroom scales, checked retailers like Argoose and the direct catalogue prices for Mr A & T as well as google shopping for prices. Boots came out cheapest so I went via TCB for cashback, earnt Boots points and used a cashback CC to pay! I also got a Boots advertised discount on other basket items (again did a price comparison before adding them in). Took quite a while to do the shop but I spent £83, earnt ~332 boots points, £4.94 TCB, saved £6.94 through the Boots code on my other items and qualified for free delivery, saving me the cost of going to a Boots store to get my items!
* my other bit of shopping was cheapest at Amaz0n so paying using TCB vouchers.

Total spent £94 but £11 in vouchers not cash, plus a total of £8 "back" in Boots points and TCB cashback :T

Hi all,

DH and I transfered £14.7k to the mortgage, we are now maxed out without paying 3% fee on any further OPs. Do we keep OPing and take the hit or put it in the bank till next year?

It depends on interest rates. Which is the highest out of 3%, your mortgage rate and your savings rate?

Got a Debenhams sale brochure with the Sunday Times today & they're showing a Kitchen Aid for £369 (was £419) available in 9 colours. I know Debenhams are on the Nectar eshops ~ says on the website they're doing triple points as well.

Has anyone seen/played the 'Spin to Win' on Nectar's facebook page?? Thousands of points to be won every day apparently ~ will have to have a mosey on over

Thanks for this.. i'm very much tempted but if i save all my vouchers from surveys then it will be free so i will have to keep away from the "add to bag" button for now and do a lot more surveys!

Swagbucks are a good way to build up Amazon gift cards too :rotfl:

Im on £10 in about 1 month and havn't had to work that hard for it If i was doing the daily survey etc too would be double that I bet! mine is mainly from search, NOSO, daily poll, bonus codes on twitter and FB, SBTV etc

Bought lunch today on my Boots Card....time to start spending the points in a practical manner

Everyone seems to be talking about nectar lots. How do you get involved in the nectar ads and surveys?

At the moment the only way I collect nectar points is to search using the Nectar search bar, which you can download onto your computer and do Nectar Canvass surveys.

The search bar only earns you 50 points a month max.

There was a thing called Adpoints a few months back but this was only a trial and as far as i'm aware it hasn't restarted, again you could only earn something like 450 point in one month.

It;s not great amounts of points but it adds up to a bit off your shopping or off Amaz0n vouchers etc

woo hooo - finally hit the £25 springboard payout.

just over £2 on onepoll this week - and the regular SB and other surveys

used loads of coupons on grocery shop yesterday - although with all the stress of house renovation problems - lots had expired (my unilever ones, my free cravendale one)

rectified my mutual points problem so am now getting emails etc again so building up points quickly and am nearly at the payout level.

did a msytery shop but now need to wait 10 days to complete report and get paid. only few quid but not bad as was only sending an email.
