    I've been browsing Arg0s Clearance - really cheap rugs, curtains, bedding & towels.

    But what I did reserve was RSCPA puppy training pads 100 for £12.49 and can be used for people

    http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4280792.htm

    Mum has been paying £21 on Amazon for 100 exactly the same bar the words RSPCA & Puppy ;)

    Try B&m. I think my daughter pays £3.99 for 100

    well that was peculiar, just checked my TCB accounts and my cashback for Holiday Extras has gone into the paid column already - it was on June 29th when I made the booking so less than 3 weeks - this is exactly how it should be really for things you buy and pay for upfront, I never see the point of 26 week waits.

    so I've emptied my TCB out as all the bigger amounts have now gone into the paid column and no point in stashing as you cant convert to mr !!!!!! cc deals after this month.
    I have 1p left to convert :D

    OH had a random 50p which could only be withdrawn by BACS. He has 12p left that he can convert to CC points but none of the tiny amounts in the pending column are going to go to the paid column in time :(

    As soon as I'd converted the £50 maximum amount into CC points each year I would start collecting for the next anniversary date so the bigger amounts were carried forward.
    This is the first time in years that both TCB and Q accounts have got zilch balances. Mostly I will just convert the odds and ends into Amazon credit now.

    Shopotize are busying themselves today in scrutinising my Co op cornflakes receipts form yesterday - both receipts on both accounts under review and then I can draw down on them as well

    Our annual car insurance policy renewal date is a few days away, biggest bill of the year :eek: as it covers 5 cars - I will get eldest sons contribution whenever I see him next which might be a few weeks but the bank of mummy and daddy have to subsidise the other 2 so its paid back very slowly in monthly instalments :)

    :(

    Really cheesed off with TCB

    Used them last year & I had to make a claim for missing cashback.
    Eventually a year later TCB paid instead of retailer.
    Avoided them.
    But wanted to book airport parking & they offered cashback.
    So went through them twice booking 2 cars & paid.
    No cashback tracked :(
    Had to put in 2 claims, which link to the time I went through them.
    nudged
    Now reply from TCB from airport people is, bookings can't be traced through TCB so no pay out !!!!
    Unless I can prove it ????
    :mad::mad::mad:
    The time I went through their link & the time I received paid email are minutes apart?
    What more proof do they need
    Pithed off as that's £13 lost :(

    I think now that there is no added incentives I will be checking the cashback rates of both TCB and Q before I do any purchases - for some retailers Q has this coin based scheme which is an added bonus even if the cashback rate is slightly less

    a few times I've submitted claims to TCB for matching the Q cashback rate and its worked fine but there is no point now in doing this
