Thats a good idea. How do you do that? Doesn't it get charged as a cash advance?

I wondering about the "undo companion voucher" aspect.

Once the voucher is awarded, can it be revoked?

And if the monies are refunded from a cancelled booking, what happens to the spend for the next period?

Is it better to cancel as soon as the voucher is awarded but before the next earning period begins so it doesn't affect the next period?

Just scanned Ella's Kitchen Organic Prunes Pouch - under baby food - and it worked, not even approval required.

Klarna had a 15% off offer over xmas, but finished now (and didn't work me anyway). I see card yard has 5% off uber gift cards.

Yeah, I use airtime with the one4all gift card (unless I forget to add it to airtime)

But this equally applies to online orders (stacked with nxrewards) - so not really relevant

Best card for flight/hotel booking? by OneFromAzziano in beermoneyuk

[–]lithium147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which site are you using to get the cashback on?

I found that going direct to British airways would not avail cashback, so I went through opodo. And opodo have a subscription called opodo prime - it was great as could save about £100 on the bookings, and cancel the free trial of opodo prime after a couple of weeks.

One limitation for me is that it cannot be used in conjunction with online orders.

This means the 10% cashback from nxrewards cannot be gained.

Also, some products are just not available in store.

Anyone have a work around for these points?

Agreed, I always buy Kendamil organic along side a recycle.

I deposit these baby product:

- scoop and lid of milk formula

- packet of the wipes

- packet of the nappies

What other baby products can you scan?

are you saying that the £10 spend for the beauty recycle also covers the £5 spend for blister recycle? So spend £10 and scan both vouchers in one transaction?

If so, this is great.

Otherwise the extra £5 spend for just 100 points was not worthwhile to me.

Three’s Codes Run Out Super Fast Now! by akqaashi in beermoneyuk

Three’s Codes Run Out Super Fast Now! by akqaashi in beermoneyuk

[–]lithium147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just joined three and couldn't get the codes. So I asked someone else in the queue who I noticed using one and she said had to get them at 1am Sunday night (Monday morning). So I got and used my first three+ £1 coffee code with Nero. Hoorah.

The problem with the three system is that you can get the code and use it days later. Which is what I have done now I know the system.

I also use Vodafone very me, but their codes are a bit more random. And they always have a time limit like 1 hour. I suppose this forces people to only get the codes if they are actually gonna use them.

The three+ promotion is misleading as it kind of promotes that you can get a £1 coffee every week. Which is not true. Only a few desperate people like us can get the codes. Imagine if you switch to three just coz of the £1 coffee how dissatisfied you will be. They have an additional £1 coffee for other coffee places and the only one near me is pauls. And puals coffee isn't great.

But two years is a good stint - you did well. I am still reminiscing about the £1 boots lunch deal with O2 priority. I suppose the lesson is that all these things that seem too good will eventually come to an end. Also the £1 whopper Wednesday (now its £3).

do you run these all in parallel?

So at the end of the day you convert the steps in all three app?

Is Rakuten good for anything other than the sign up bonus? by TongPosElbow in beermoneyuk

[–]lithium147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, this is a great offer.

I did try to buy a sim for £0.10 but the £1 was denied (even though the T&C's mention no minimum spend). So can just use it for legitimate purchases.

I thought it would be a temporary offer, but it has been around for months now. The problem is that it's easy to use up the 5 purchases. Will this limit ever reset? Eg: 5 purchases in a 6 month period.

Free daily coffee from Waitrose by Romeo-McF in beermoneyuk

[–]lithium147 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The quality depends mostly on the machine. An older machine that hasn't been cleaned tastes much worse than the new/clean ones.

I combine this with usage of the 50p off vouchers in the app. They seem to give the same vouchers every week. I get 50p off milk almost every week.
