    Yes, but if you do not have to select a reward this week then it will be carried forward.
    With this in mind does anyone know how I can change my reward, I've selected a Tesco voucher but I now want to leave the selection blank. I've put in 6 out of 8 codes including today. Thanks.

    I had 2 x Sunday codes in todays Mail on Sunday, so the spare one will be sent to the first one that PMs me.

    Been given to adoreholidays who was the first to PM at 2.28pm

    Even if you had delivery, the cost of that plus the paper would be more than the voucher is worth

    Well we get the paper anyway and so don't work out the cost of the voucher vs the paper. We'd very much like delivery! :cool:

    But I can see us opting out of the scheme if the deadlines remain.

    In which case we'd still like delivery :p

    Also i'm glad others are highlighting the common abuses on this topic. When I did so for some reason I was in the wrong and posters were highly critical of me! :eek: I got some support :A but more bashing than support. :rotfl:

    You don't have to change your choice today - you can do it next week. If you have 6 codes then next week when you enter your code you can choose your reward or carry forward 1400 points from the codes you have already entered (you need 1500 points for a reward. Sat=100 and Sun=150) HTH x

    I am starting to wonder if we are all too generous giving out spare codes - I have done so a few times and all I see is the same people on here asking for codes. Surely it must be possible for them to get a paper themselves. There will be some people who have a genuine excuse of not being able to get the voucher e.g. being on holiday or sickness.

    For me it's the people that just post the codes without PMs that are simply wasting them, at 11.50pm on Wednesday night I can understand it but up until then I've seen two, maybe three actual members get hold of those codes in the past six months as opposed to non-members scalping them and thanking no-one.

    Something might always happen that will leave you needing a code, but my rellies ask me to get the paper when they can't buy it and vice versa, two weeks ago I trudged through the snow on both days for the paper and other shopping, so it's hard to have sympathy for those asking week in week out. I think now people need two more weekends if they're sticking with it, there'll be a lot less codes flying about.

    I only need next week's papers for my final 4-week award, excellent timing as it's the end of the month and I can quit for a while.

    Have read the article in Live magazine and *think* I have come up with some stats.

    To collect for any reward, 1500 points must be collected (12 codes), over a minimum of 6 weeks and a maximum of 8. So this would allow 4 codes, assuming here for someone who gets 6 sat (100 points) and 6 sun (150 points)- to be missed which is an improvement.

    Once 1500 points are hit within 8 weeks, you can get a £5 voucher or bank them to save for a bigger reward. Nothing yet about time limits for the latter.

    Looks at the moment like I will stick with the scheme as being able to miss 4 out of 16 codes over 8 weeks is quite flexible in my view. Just got to wait and see the rules for carrying on.

    Sadly with such flexibility I can at the moment see more abuse of members' kindness on here. Since people can miss more codes and still get a £5 voucher. It needs more persistance yes, but when freebies/easy ride are on offer why wouldn't people who do it now carry on. What happens with regards to a bigger reward remains to be seen.

    I'm confused....

    I thought someone said it was 100 points on a Saturday and 150 on a Sunday i.e. 250 points in total per weekend.

    That would make it 6 weekends for a £5 reward.


    But then another poster has said it is 100 points on a Saturday and 250 on a Sunday.

    That would make it 4.5 weeks for a reward (5 sats and 4 suns).

    Or even just 6 weeks of buying the Sunday one (and nothing on a Sat) if there is a new 8 week window.


    Also where are people reading that today's is worth 750 points. Surely a new scheme would give a bonus next weekend, when it starts.

    Where are peeps getting these figures from:o

    "Another poster" is wrong, it's 150 on Sundays like you said first time, just re-checked the Live mag.

    Maybe they meant 250 for the whole weekend, which is right.
