Regarding the Amex offers - which annoyingly are only on OHs newer shinier card

The issues I had yesterday were because I was trying to use the purple amex nectar card instead of the new and shiny amex - honestly some days I really should not be let out on my own.

But today I redeemed both offers and the redemption emails were there almost immediately :T

In Wilkos - lots of gift cards so if anyone is struggling to spend £40 have a look at the selection. Don't buy Wilko gift cards though as you can only spend them in store - so no good for Q or TCB bonus shops

I got a John Lewis gift card and put £40 on it

IN WHSmith I got a John Lewis gift card which you can out any value on so I put £15 on.

So I got £55 gift cards which I can use in Waitrose's for £40 - useful for getting cashback items and the weekends free newspapers, coffee and magazines.

Who is it that collects receipts for nappies?

Wretched annoying malfunctioning search button wont let me search back

And is it Pampers receipts that you collect? Just wondering if a scanned receipt and then emailed to you would work ...
But maybe its not pampers, its probably Huggies ...

On a Mr T receipt today there is an item Pampers £2.50 which I thought would be too cheap for nappies but I looked at mys and these are on offer for £2.50

Just seen these on my nectar account offers.

100 bonus points on each of your next 10 shops and save up your points with Sainsbury's this Christmas.

250 bonus points on your next visit to a Sainsbury's Petrol Site.

May be worth checking your offers.

I have this offer on my nectar but the terms and conditions are difficult.

You cant just go into store and buy 10 separate bananas - you will only get the bonus points for one.

Basically it wants you to shop twice a week and you will get 100 points for each shop but only if you spend more than £1 - and not in the caf!, gift cards or on drink etc.
You have to do this every week for 5 weeks to get the final 500 bonus - so that's me out as I am bound to miss out a week.

And then again if you do qualify the bonus points will be awarded from 17/12/2018 up to a maximum of 1,500 points - so another set of bonus points to chase up in the week before Christmas ...

Valid on 2 swipes per week, maximum 1 swipe per day. Valid on swipes worth 1 base point or more at Sainsbury's in-store, online, and at Sainsbury's Petrol sites until 16/12/2018. Nectar card must be used. 100 bonus points will be credited within 14 days of swipe and 500 bonus points will be credited within 28 days of the validity end date. Base points are 1 point per litre of fuel purchased at Sainsbury's petrol stations & 1 Nectar point for every full £1 you spend with us on selected products. Spend does not apply to cashback, purchases from the kiosk or Sainsbury's Cafe, vending machines, concessions, or purchases of spirits & liqueurs, baby milk products, gift cards, charity items, medicines, savings stamps, phone cards or mobile phone vouchers.

Also on my nectar - OH has the much smaller balance and has no bonus offers -

I've got
500 bonus points when you spend £5 or more on Fashion at eBay before 23:59 on 14 November 2018.

What will £5 buy me on ebay fashion I wonder ....

Sadly no decent offers on amex for me if I would have bought gift cards.

Only 20% on sparks, no food offers.

Nectar is 10 swipes at Argos for 100 points each time, thought it was on S spends at first.

Can't believe what different offers we each have......
