Another three NowTV boxes purchased this morning - two Sky Cinema and one Sky Kids. I've now sold three, have three in my possession and three more to collect tomorrow.

In other news, Amazon have brought back their three months of Music streaming for 99p a month. I've cancelled my iTunes sub (at £9.99 a month) and signed up for this instead, saving £27. I've been putting savings on subs into a savings account so this is building nicely following ditching Virgin Media TV and now this. Will be on the lookout for other cheap trials in February if anyone has any tips.

You can get bonus points on gift cards although not very many but if you can’t get discounted gift cards elsewhere eg Amazon it might be useful.

I thought they stopped this in favour of 20% discounts? I made a killing on the old 3V cards - those were the days. Have you got a link? Can't find anything online, bar 20% off.

Bought my final three NowTV boxes this morning. Sold four, have five and another three to collect on Monday. Not buying any more, having already spread the purchases across two Clubcards.

Yes those were the days buying 3V with Amex and buying Tesco Gift Cards to buy more 3V with to earn free points. You need to use pay+ to buy gift cards and then points post a few days later at 1 per £4 and you earn on Tesco GCs not that you’ll be buying them as 4% is much better.

I’m buying them and will split them up and sell them when prices go up when the promos finish and should mean free points.

Only sold one NowTV box in the last couple of days but it was a Sky Kids one which are proving hard to shift. Collected my last three this morning so sold five, have seven to get rid of.

Bought the twin cordless BT phone this morning, with 500 bonus Clubcard points. We haven't had a landline for 12 months now, despite paying for line rental with our broadband package. Should now get some use out of our 'free' weekend calls with Virgin.

As I used a gift card bought on Zeek with cashback credit, I'll need to work out the cost but, off the top of my head I think I've paid about £45ish.

There are also bonus points on TV wall brackets. Will look into those later today as we were thinking of getting one for the upstairs telly, which is just sat on an old desk we'd like to chuck out.

Soime discounted gift cards on offer, buy in a store using Pay+ to earn a couple of points.

Sold three NowTV boxes yesterday in a flurry of activity. Just got the four left now.

Signed up for a Tesco Bank current account this morning. I'm not switching from Nationwide, this will be a secondary account. 1 extra point per £1 spent in Tesco and one point per £8 spent elsewhere.

Still investigating the TV brackets. Thanks for the link, Steve.

Wouldn't you be better with an Amex gold for instance and earn 1 point per £1 so 0.5p. Using Tesco it's £8 for 1 point (3p for Hotels.com) so Amex would be 4p for your £8 and you get lounge access, just cancel card to avoid the fee. Unless of course you're doing something you shouldn't

I doubt you'll use the card in Tesco as 4% GC discount is better than 1% using the debit card even though you value it at 3%.
