Everyone lost in the Ether II

Picasso, if you want M&S, then you have a few options. Argos is easy, buy with your Amex £10 off £100 deal. The 100-200 Amex points you'll get (depends on card) are worth another £1-2 off.


Perhaps - and I've not tried this - you could use Argos giftcards to buy M&S giftcards @ Argos.


Then you could buy one4all giftcards at Post Office, a £10 card bought on Amex gets you a £5 statement credit.


I've got 5 different Amex cards, so I could buy £50 of cards for a £25 statement credit, then use them to buy 5 £10 Argos giftcards @ one4all, and get a £50 M&S card @ Argos for a £5 spendit voucher.


Net cost for a £50 M&S card - £20. Theoretically. Often you can't use giftcards to buy giftcards, not sure what Argos policy is.


It does, however, depend on you having a few Amex cards.

What about argos, as you could buy argos in t's then go to argos and buy m and s? bit of a hassle though

Worth the hassle if you have the magazine coupons. Buy 4 £25 Argos giftcards @ Tesco https://www.giftcards.tesco.com/details/Argos-Gift-Card, add on the points vouchers from the magazine, you'd get 700 Tesco clubcard points = £16.80 in Avios value (some might say £21 in 3x value).


Again, depends on whether you can convert them into M&S giftcards @ Argos.

Suddenly the embarrassment of pinching them makes sense

Thanks for this. Wonder whether they would arrive in time for Christmas. We were just saying yesterday we needed to get some for mil as she has Dynamo ones at the moment which are a bit difficult for her now - she's 80 and still cycles into town a couple of times a week!

I've not been around much the last few days so not sure if this has been discussed lately. I bought 4 x £25 Homebase gift cards today in Tesco, and got 700 points, 2 x '150 points per £50' plus 4 x '100 points when you spend over £20 on gift cards from the magazine coupons', I had 5 coupons but only 4 would scan, I think if you are buying £20 cards you could get 800 points for your £100. Thanks to Henlans and others who mentioned this last week.
Will get another £100's worth tomorrow then get my DH 1/2 a lawnmower for Christmas, I'll get the other 1/2 :rotfl:



Edit ---just read backward up page and see this being discussed:rotfl:
