    Sainsbobs appear to be slowly learning that I don't appear to want to spend much at all in their stores (and preferably nothing at all or be paid to take away:D). I've just had to shop there for some potatoes (someone will now tell me of a better offer that I know nothing about:o:o) as not shopping in A as Mr T hasn't got any on any good offer.

    S did not give me a stream of coupons for not shopping there in the last several weeks:(. Instead, just one - £2.25 off £15 spend. (What an odd amount off. Presumably off a £15 shop that is £10 cheaper elsewhere - now, how do I manage that?:think:)

    Equates to £3 off £20 so, no, I'm not shopping there again at all as wanted at least equivalent £4 off £20.

    I had a 'similar' thing with Halifax - my bank account (which pays no interest just a fixed amount per month if qualifying criteria are met) sometimes offers cashback for spending at specific places on the debit card. My account recently told me "you have no cashback offers" and suggested I could get more by spending on my card. I refrained from doing so. (Not spending any money I wasn't needing to or going to spend.:money:)

    Well, after a few months, I've still not spent at any of the retailers at all - or, indeed, used the card (I've kept the account ticking over with an about 1p balance nearly constantly (the money is elsewhere, earning interest:))). And, yet, I've now still got a new cashback offer come up. So - it wasn't necessary to spend anything at all!:D I may take up the cashback offer - but not doing so if I would be spending what I wasn't going to already.

    2011 from my old boss in America. I cleared mine out a couple of years back.

    Forgot to mention I received a letter from Green Redeem and it has 1 voucher in it, didn't they have 3 before? :undecided
