Foursquare doesn't work very well, sometimes the Specials show up but often they don't. Usually if you search for Tesco it will find it and display the deal. Yes, you have to check in.

just thought i'd add that u need to load the special to card i was caught out once there are a few steps until it says the special has been loaded, u need to open the special AND load to card......

How much time do you have after loading before you have to pay? E.g. Can you check in and load when you arrive, spend 1/2 hour shopping and then pay? Reason I ask is no mobile phone service at tills!

And has anyone used Harvey Nichols to buy gift vouchers and got the £25 cashback? I assume they count.

Apparently Harvey Nichols in London are doing a shopping event tomorrow with Amex which will give you from 10% to 50% off your shop - is a lottery (that's what SA told DH when he went to get his magnum of prosecco). So could potentially save/buy even more.

Has the Gap offer finished i can't seem to find it ? i have a local Gap In uxbridge but this doesn't show the special offer ?

I registered for the VIP london shopping weekend £25 credit last week and spent 70 pounds in BHS i also received a ''thanks for shopping small email'' your £5 credit will be with you shortly ??

no other email from Amex as yet ??

Will be visiting Harvey Nicks tonight ! to stock up on some stocking fillers ! Thanks Amex!

I think GAP has finished. It's no longer showing, and I was just about to go down there right now. Really disappointed.

I checked in around 90 minutes before buying something in Gap yesterday and it worked.

Well as I have mentioned before, Mrs MikeTaff went to argos and split the cost of a steamer over two Amex cards but FORGOT to check in to foursquare!!!!

I went on foursquare that evening (about five hours after the purchase) - checked in to argos and loaded the offer onto the card. (used two different foursquare accounts).

Two days later - BOTH £5 credits have come through. So it is not the end of the world if you can't or don't check in at the till.

mrs sfax checked in but didn't load the offer at Tesco today. Perhaps all is not lost....

Just load it up TODAY I would say, just to be on the safe side

Understatement of the year.

If you want to be sure of finding something, use their website (which works) and then email the link to your phone. And then open the link on your phone in Foursquare.
