For the Amex thing, you need to have an Amex credit or charge card. They run a range of promotions offering cashback on spend, some of which are being discussed on here:
Spend £10, get £5 back in Superdrug
Spend £100, get £10 back in Argos
Importantly you have to opt in to each offer (either in your account or on their offers website) and some have a limited number available before it expires.
The current big promotion is Shop Small - basically encouraging people to shop in small local businesses - spend £10, get £5 back. Each business can only be used once, though some OneStop (convenience stores) and Spars are included and each of those is classed as a separate business so you can claim once each in those. Only those businesses that are included on their website are taking part in the promotion.

These cat food pouches are 5 for £2 in A today. I have bought 5 hoping for a £1.375 apg.
I think it is probably only this flavour that might work. Results just after 4pm.
