    Thanks for testing/reporting :beer:

    I'll put the hat back in the box. :rotfl:

    I wonder when it will next be brought out .....:think:

    I knew it wouldn't. What are you doing giving T an interest free loan by putting your money into a gift card that commits you to spending the money there? And doesn't, as far as I can see (not very far then:rotfl:), give any bonus at this time of the year.

    Voting cold:eek:.

    Can someone help me out please? I am sure I read here recently that people were buying either 3v or visa (??) gift cards in Tesco for the 150 points, then using these to buy (via a voucher site) Asda cards.

    Does anyone know the correct details for this...............:A

    :rotfl::rotfl: I like this option (if available). Sort of like the sign-up to the T credit card (buy an apple in Mr A) then cancel the card for the CC points. In the event, though, I chickened out and made a small purchase somewhere else.:T If there's any way to extract money out of Mr T by making spending in Mr A I'm glad to hear! I love it when/if you can make a profit out of T by spending at one of their rivals!:):rotfl:

    When converted into a visa 3v using 4 off £40 and £3 off £30, getting the extra 150CC points and the fuel save bonus it works out quite nicely.
    If the T giftcard had of given even more fuel save points it would have been the cream on aau's hat cake.
    It was worth a shot imo, lets face it T have made many a T&C mistake, some in their favour and some in ours. It said PP's can't be used towards GC's and yet apparently they can.

    As they say " Every Little Helps" :)

    Evening all again!

    Today I thought I'd give the JFs and B&H combo a go as I have enough Easter eggs to be going on with
    Thanks to Cheerleader for saying to ignore the signs on the B&H of 2 for £8 - I chose the black pepper set as it has worked previously and the JF brunette liquid shine shampoo x 2 and they all went thru at 3 for £10 and then the JFs compared as expected against W's £5.89 to £1.00 x2.

    A handy filler against W's and also against T's is Tilda easy cook long grain rice 500g £2.19 (A's) against £1.00 at both W's and T's

    Has anyone tried the lavender B&H set? If not I might try this tomorrow - nothing ventured, nothing gained!

    Yes, lavender also works, HTH.
