    Nectar are offering "500 bonus points when you shop on eBay and use the Click & Collect delivery option"

    What's the cheapest thing you can find including any collection charges?

    Best I can do so far is several 1,000s of items at 99p....but I want better than that :rotfl:

    I would think twice before buying something under £1 just for the nectar points.

    Don't know what has happened to my nectar, I seem to have two offers on it :eek:

    Edit: think they have changed the website layout.

    I've got this one as well on mine nectar card :j

    I've never done this before - ordered from ebay and collected from Argos - is this where you do the collecting ????
    as ours is inside Sainsbobs so very convenient

    I also looked at my card via the website and strangely there are only 2 offers to view :eek: - I knew it was new offer day but it should have updated by now, slightly worrying. One says collect points on your shopping and the other the 50% off thing. OH does not have the app - wondering now if I should download it ...

    Stayed at a hotel.
    I believe that anything consumable they give, you can take.
    So I took
    shampoo
    shower gel
    soap
    coffee/tea/sugar sachets
    little milk thingies
    notepad/pen

    I did NOT take
    toilet roll
    hankies
    towels
    Against my principles (yes, I do have some!)

    What if anything do you take?

    Also does anyone else take a bag/satchel down for the breakfast and croissants/muffins etc fall into bag unexpectedly when seated at table? To join butter and jam? :eek: I find scrambled egg just messes up bag ;)

    Unfortunately not on my account:( I think the best thing we got to spend our points the on was the pg or typhoo teabags that were on offer at the time at one stop. Would love another opportunity like that to spend points. Does anyone ever enter the prize draws?
    Sorry for all those that have suffered losses and congratulations to Rhos on the gorgeous new grandchild.:)

    I sometimes enter the prize draws josie.....i just keep collecting in the hope that if and when something good comes along I'll be ready:D

    Mine was for a £35 shop :(

    But OH only has to spend £15 to get £3 off :j

    so do we buy something sensible like meat and cat food or something fancy ...

    I wish Marksies had food online so I could waste a pleasant hour or so plotting a £20 shop:rotfl:

    As I seem to be getting vouchers thrown at me from all directions I might get tinned stuff that will sit in the cupboards till next year. Wonder if they have any decent tinned ham?

    Those little pots of jam just keep falling off the tables, don't they!
    Same happens now and again in the airport lounges!
