I have in the past and they have been credited (T&Cs of bonus offer only refer to stamps being excluded) - just checked and would need to spend £30 to avoid the postage charge though. Giftcards are One4All - CS willing years ago, I used them in B00ts to buy 3V, then used 3V to buy A gitftcards. A long work around - One4All are accepted at plenty of places. Worth a punt as you can generally find somewhere to spend them and nothing lost if the points don't turn up . This offer closes 20/8.

one4all I convert into Amazon - always useful to have a good credit balance on Amazon ready for whatever bargains turn up

Raining here too, wherever here is - glad we had a day out yesterday rather than today. It could be that as we are all generally anonymous on here we are all in the same areas (some in the same house) and do not even realise it ...

Not sure if it was here that I saw this yesterday, if so thank you to the OP

Check your sainsburys nectar account for new bonus items - even if you checked it already this week check again as new ones have been listed and some need you to activate them

One very nice one is to spend £5 in Argos using your nectar card - 500 points and then 1000 will be added back onto your card - so this is one that you need to activate - don't just go to Argos and hope it works

I found it on OHs account yesterday but then when I rechecked mine today its also on mine :j
I set OH the challenge of finding something for £5 so he looked at the new catalogue and straight away he came up with a recharging thingy - for £4.99 - when I said that was no good, had to be at least £5 the catalogue went in my direction :rotfl:

so now I have to tell him the challenge is now to get 2 things for £5 or more before August 19th

so can anyone suggest anything - the only thing I really need is towels and only sale ones - what else can you get for a fiver in Argos?

The one good thing about this is that we now have Argos inside our sainsbobs so this saves having to go into town and 70p in parking. The downside is that they opened the slurry pit close to our store yesterday and it reeked, even inside the store :rotfl:

£5 argos giftcard?

1. I don't know if argos sell £5 vouchers
2. It might be excluded in the T&Cs :rotfl:

...you could even use the GC to buy the £4.99 charger

Why did I not know this?

Always have a nectar balance that I don't know how to use. Generally because I get nectar points for reading my electric and gas meters each month!

We always think our dog spends hours on Dogbook, updating his profile etc when we're not at home!

I rarely even look at Nectar, just keep adding points if in S. I have just looked and have £350 worth :eek:. What is the best way to spend these please?

I see in the bonus section that if I convert to eBay they will give me 30% back (feel sure I have seen a 50% offer earlier in the year discussed on here? If yes, may wait as that seems a reasonable way to spend?). Also 3000 bonus available from spending at Viking with no apparent minimum spend (normally 30 minimum spend, I recall previous offers could be met buying the Post Office gift cards ).

[STRIKE]Is S Nectar account different to going to Nectar direct? No mention of Arg0s for me though .[/STRIKE] Ignore that, it is there just didn't see it (was looking for an Arg0s logo but it just has a Nectar logo next to it - probably available to everyone then .

Anon

You are correct Anon. Was 50% a few weeks ago. Hth xx

I think its a newish thing - I only knew a long while after I bought the giftcards from Viking and I didn't know what to use them for so I started going through the website.

but this sort of info is exactly what this thread is for - pooling all of our knowledge today :j
