Rakuten is on wuntu next week so there will be a chance to top up beyond £12.50! Possibly £16 if it's the usual 350pts offer.

Worth bearing in mind if you are after some more expensive titles

Is it rentals/online streaming purchase only? I see the points expire on 27/10 (those I applied last night anyway) so will have to remember to spend.

Many thanks

I also got a repeat of the Garden Gourmet free stuff on shopmium. Still haven't used the first lot yet. :eek::rotfl:

Filling the freezer with free food that isn't Dr O must be ok surely? :whistle:

Right I'm off, disappearing again , we have the manor(caravan) to pack away and dismantle before the cold weather really sets in. With DD1 due in few weeks if we leave it too late I will be stuck in Surrey. :eek:

Park run completed last week in preparation for this Sunday's Tough Mudder. MIND have sent them their running vests. :T

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far xx It would really boost their confidence if could get them well over their target. :cool:

Yes, the codes will be accepted for gift cards but they'll never materialise and customer support will tell you to suck it up if you complain about losing points on things you weren't supposed to spend them on

The promo is set to run until next April but I doubt they'll let it run that far without tightening up the processes somewhat, or will they....?

How I failed to do that I'll never know:o

Just checked my nectar account to see I've had 1030 points added by mymail.

If I was aau or mhoc I would know why:o

But happy to have them:)

I never get mymail offers but I did have some train offers that had gone a few weeks past their due date so had to chase that up with livechat yesterday

It was the most painless chat ever, they didn't even ask for any screenshots. :T

Goldman Sachs launches their Marcus savings account today - 1.5%, easy access, minimum £1. https://www.marcus.co.uk.

Unless you are getting full use out of other accounts, including Santander, it may be worth switching savings to here and closing those?

Who would have thought that 1.5% was attractive ... .

Same here - on mine there is also free weight watchers bread and free weird dips that you can also get from Sainsburys - biggest stores though only but for 5 freebies it might be worth a trip out

not me, I am sticking to my 2% bottom line.

It makes better sense though to be putting money into the house so I would rather be spending it but as neither the builder or the chaps who are supposed to be doing the flat roof have given us an actual confirmed start date then spending it does not seem to be an option either
