    Well done on the freebies (someone will have to start a thread on using up freebie potatoes as I think a few of us have benefitted from them now!). Saving the free coffee till Friday is a lovely idea.

    Your week sounds busy as usual. 
    It’s on the app on the Octoplus tab. The codes usually go live just after 6am and you need to be quick. I usually activate mine around 6.15 on. Monday and you have a week to use it.
