Lloyds TSB pay you up to £50 in Feb & March in to your Savings account

Hello there everyone,
You may have seen that Lloyds TSB are starting a new tool to help you save money with your Lloyds Delta Card. Basically Lloyds round up any Debit card transactions you make to the next pound and then transfer that resifual ammount in to a Lloyds Saving Account.
It sounds like a good idea but the best bit is that they will match any savings you make using this facility for all of Feb and March. So if you save £50 in this way, Lloyds TSB will double it to £100. The matching offer is limited to £50 for the first 2 months though.
Now how do you get make enough transactions to actually get enough money? Also how do you get shops to accept a low value transaction on your card?
The answer is simple. Outside payment terminals as Petrol Stations. You can do this at Tesco or Asda etc. Enter your card in the OPT and then just put 5pence in your tank. If you did this 5 times you would get 5 x 95p entered in to your savings account from you and the same from Lloyds TSB.
This particular idea is only theory at the moment as the offer doesen't start until Feb 1st. I've signed up and will give it a go. Getting £100 out of Lloyds TSB certainly sounds like a good idea to me.
