I joined Shaw Academy for free photo course, then paid for NUS extra card and BINGO, discounts and freebies

What freebies have you found???

And what discounts do you use?

I don't do bingo :rotfl:

Mainly I use mine for C0-op shops and in Superdrug but I am sure I am missing other discount places ... possibly I just shop in the wrong places

Morning all. Thank you BH. Did someone say that they have Amazon student Prime? Did you get it on one of those part time student cards please?

I have just got student prime.

Its quite easy. If you don't have a student email address you have to email them. I did 2 scans of my blue card back and front and I then sent it off as an attachment to the special email address and they got back to me the same day.
They give you another link to fill in the form with your normal email address. You have 14 days to do this - I had to time mine just right for the last minute Christmas orders - you get 6 months free and after this prime is at a reduced rate.

Yes thanks

I know about them but local one seemed to be mostly walks and board games. I will expand my search to next big town next month when the will start posting their programmes

Cheers

Possibly everything starts again in September - maybe following the old school year?
My U3A mostly happens in the next village, same people that ran everything when my kids were at school there decades again .... so average age must now be 75 at least ...

I've not been long in and trying to catch up.

I swear my orders on separate accounts are being confirmed to the same email address.

I'm pleased I'm not the only one in a pickle:rotfl:

Loads of freebies on 2 COS accounts.

Think I'll be using my Sains conditional spend after all tomorrow.

Foraging Fox:o

what freebies have you got on COS?
I have nothing new on any of ours today

I was very careful doing my TCB and Q orders, making sure I was logged in and out but even so ... I can see the odd Wilko 11p and 12p payments tracking but not the £3 and £2.50 bonuses yet .... hopefully it will all correct itself by Monday or Tuesday ... says she hopefully

I always mute them, unless already on 1 bar that’s an ok volume for me.

The M&S SS tills you can set to different languages - yes its very childish but its good for practising your Spanish and it confuses the SSS :rotfl:

nettie, it's the same again for me today.
Have you sorted yours yet please?

Morning peeps.

Nope, it's still the same. I went to live chat the other day but there is no category for that type of query. I just keep going through quidco. I'm just wondering is it worth the hassle of trying to explain to live chat......sigh...

Is it a one shot deal for the 6 months free or can you do it again after a break - I am thinking a bit like amex, couple of different adults and one of you can always be in an intro deal?

No COS freebies for me either, even the stoppenWaffles have disappeared (just like from the shelves in Morrisons)


HOWEVER I have finally got the magnums on QS (DW not me) plus some free plain Fages that were on COS last week.

Its worth a try - using the same blue NUS card, new Amazon account with a different email address etc ...

You just have to remember to close then old student prime account before its due to renew.

Off to check the Q accounts now for renewed freebies and more disappointments

mhoc

On my Q all of yesterdays Wilko orders cashback and bonus is tracking nicely

On clicksnappy Ive got yet more free Fage - expires July 3rd.

If I got it from Waitrose for 50p - is that what it will show as just 50p? Not the full £1.10 price?

My Waitrose today had to send back a delivery lorry as the contents were above temperature
I looked for the happy cow spread cheese for shoppimums and there was a yawning empty gap on the shelf

In theory its possible that it will be in tomorrow ... and then I could get Fage at the same time.

If not there is always Sainsburys on Sunday ...
