Daft Question, M&S Points

I've got a Marks and spencer cc that has 68 points. Theres nothing owed on the account, but just wondering how much these are actually worth, just before I go and close the account.

Thanks.

    68p (in vouchers).

    Sadly, you'll probably find there's a minimum 100 points (£1) required to generate a voucher.

    Each point is worth a penny so you have a whopping 68p!

    They only give vouchers in full pounds though so I guess they're not really worth anything as they are.

    I was going to stop using/cancel mine when the 0% period run out a couple of months back, as I had a zero balance.

    But then I thought, no why do that, I'll use it and spend a few hundred pounds a month on shopping and other bits and pieces, pay it off in full each month and collect the points and the vouchers, with no interest.

    Unless you have a reason to cancel it, it is always worth keeping open cards with benefits such as vouchers/cashback, by using them in the way I have said above.

    Its not the most rewarding card you are only getting 0.5% and can only get m&s vouchers.
