    Just in the middle of doing an Amazon pantry order - just the Butchers cat food I got a few weeks ago and 4 coffee for free delivery as there is a banner which says spend £30 get £10 automatically discounted, order before 31/12 :j

    But then I realised it also says "selected items" - and neither the Butchers cat food or the coffee count as one of the selected items :mad:

    Potentially free boiler care for one year for Sky customers through BGas:

    https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/britis-gas-!!!!!!-and-controls-breakdown-cover-for-a-whole-year-99-excess-exclusively-for-sky-customers-2867920

    £99 excess. Is that any good or are there better offers?

    Would this cover electric boilers as well. Mum has ground source heat pumps and electric boiler (plus solar water and electric) boiler has been broken 3 weeks. Was repaired with new part on 22nd but lasted half hour and having to wait for specialist engineer to get back from holiday. They have sky anyway so would be ideal for them. They are talking about a gas boiler but as everything is currently in cellar where you can no longer put a gas boiler it will take some planning.
    They have been to mine for a bath today.

    OH has had to go out on call - even though he isn't actually on the rota but the incident is local, one of his own drivers so he rang him rather than get a chap out from Coventry ...:(
    Fortunately he was sipping Bottle Green with his dinner (I was tidying up the left over red)

    So I've checked Nationwide simply, First direct visa offers and Halifax rewards and found nothing of interest.
    I did an Amazon pantry order but the automatic discount wont come off sadly.
    But going through Q and TCB I found a dubious item had been accepted for cashback :j so it worked out free. I also looked on payout and found Amazon e vouchers for £6 odd I'd forgotten about and nearly £20 of Marks e vouchers :T
