The double up is usually advertised in advance Rose and will cover only certain categories....well it has previously eg Homeware, Taste the difference wines, Clothing etc:)

Thankyou. Are you a financial advisor by any chance Anon, you are very good :rotfl: xx

No, just an avid switcher and saver, though rates are now rubbish for most accounts .

I am relying on switching bonuses to boost my returns now .

I managed to get OH to S, he put 2 x £10 in and said it was full. I told him to get out of the car and put another £10 in, and watched him. The kick went at £5+, he was ready to give up until I barked at him to continue and fill it up... it easily got to £10.

The into the shop, one lot of clothing returned, and a few new clothes buy, the lowest till split was 200 points. I think I am £200 up in points. I am keeping some clothes, but the rest are terrible... maybe I should have take more time choosing rather than just checking that it was over a £10!

lol.

Blimey, you are rubbish choosing clothes . Just wondering how you are going to return it all without drawing attention to yourself - one at a time?

£5 - £1.40 = 22.5p per can. so yes your right. (max only) however thats a bit steep for an elite. but ok if your in need

Was not going to take part in the Nectar thing but couldnt resist. So popped over ( 5 miles ) to my local and spent £47.00 fuel and £10.51 on shopping for mum. Got £22.50 points and Mums shopping and a full tank petrol. Does double up cover food aswell?

Many thanks to whoever brought it across. The power of the Elite.

Last query for Bubbs or Zippy. Packs pepsi on £3.50 each or 2 for £5,00 again at W again but seem to think last time they came out really cheap. Cant remember how much though??

Iceland have a crate for £6 (someone was buying several in front of me yesterday)... Just realised I had missed Iceland off my list of where I went.

Do you remeber that random coloured wool? DS still pulls a fce when he comes across his school photo wearing a 'shades of green' home made v - neck jumper:rotfl:

In the 70's we used to have a strip around the top of the arm.... if you were really posh you had 2!

I've already returned 7 items.... :D:D:D:D

I have tried everything on, and kept what I would wear (as I hate clothes shopping!)

I am having a cuppa and will put them in bags with the receipts... DS2 is going to return the ones that I had used a S refund card on... so I will only have one more trip back.
