Good shop at Tesco this morning.

Picked up my 'free' Quidco Phileas Fogg crisps and £2 is already showing in my account.

Bought 10 packs of the Jungle Dogs Hot Dogs with Real Food coupons.

Finally, threw in two of the travel-sized Sanex shower gels and used the coupon below to get both for £1.

Used a £10 PP expiring today, paid £2 cash which I've already got back through Quidco.

50p off any Sanex product

This was a valentines promo.

£40 spend on cards for £30
£20 spend on cards for £15

Other folks were buying Next cards at reduced price and paying off their Next credit account with them (i.e. all the things they bought in sale after xmas)

I was never trouted. There were no grounds for it really

Oh, I vaguely remember that, I wonder why I didn't take part lol

Do you think a similar thing could be done with Argos' £5 or £10 GC on a £50/100 spend?

did you mean to say "app" here? :think:

This is how the web version works

Yes I did, after locking out by pressing get voucher umpteen times just to see how I might go about printing it off. The web is the same, never had one change though, will keep an eye out for that as I also write the amount on receipt and usually print when needed.

After a few small test purchases I did this

1. I bought £200 mr Shoes giftcards in Argus for £160
2. using those £200 cards I bought 4x£50 prepaid Visas in Mr Shoes, (at an additional expense of £16, IIRC, to activate)
3. then using those £200 visa cards and £10 cash I bought £280 Mr Shoes giftcards in Argus
4. using those £280 giftcards (plus £20 cash) I bought 6x£50=£300 prepaid Visas in Mr Shoes, (which cost £24 to activate)
5. then using those £300 visa cards I bought £400 Mr Shoes giftcards in Argus
6. using those £400 giftcards to buy 8x£50=£400 prepaid Visas in Mr Shoes, (which cost £32 to activate)

So for £160 initial outlay, £30 cash spent along the way and £72 activation fees (cost of £262) I had £400 fully activated visas to spend wherever/whenever I wanted.

Thats not even considering the smaller amounts I started off with before I realised it would take forever to get anywhere with it

It was a pretty easy way to make money and effectively got us a Dyson for free :money:.

The visa activation fees were offset by the fact that most of the prepaid visas I ended up with were used to buy B&Q giftcards in Mr T for the bonus 150 points per £50 :rotfl:

Ahhhhh you were one of those
I can't see Argus making a stuff up like that again :rotfl:
I only grabbed £80 of Mr Shoes cards because I was completely skint but they paid for DS2s baby milk and nappies for a fair while (before I learnt how to shop the elite way ) :T

Glitchy

Whats mr shoes?

My store last night had a £1.25 SEL but it said it was for a 125g bar and not the 114g that was sitting on the shelf

I pointed out to a muggle that it was going through the tills at 35p. He was most appreciative .....and bought ONE :eek: :wall:

:rotfl:I bet he went back after checking his till receipt
