Pound to £5k Challenge

EDITION 125

Here are all of the best offers that I can find for you this week!

Not caught up on my previous emails? You might have missed a golden opportunity from the last few weeks - tap the link below to view them!

ENDS SOON: Barclays Bank Switch (£200)

There are a handful of bank switching offers available right now paying ~£200 each but if you haven’t looked at the Barclays offer yet it is worth considering as they will be pulling this in the next few weeks!

Buy 1 Get 1 Half Price LEGO at Argos

Argos are currently running a promotional offer across a selected range of LEGO sets that mean you can get a set half price when you buy another at full price, with the cheapest set getting discounted

This promotion doesn’t apply to all LEGO sets and it is worth looking at the prices to see how they compare to other retailers before buying, however this could be a good way to stock up ahead of birthdays, Christmas, etc.

You can stack this offer with additional savings (three times!)

Stack 1:

If you have not opted into the Argos marketing emails, head to their website and do so to get £10 off a £60 spend - this code will stack with the multi-buy promotion to get you £60 off

Stack 2:

Scan your Nectar card when spending to get 0.5% equivalent cashback (1 point per £1 spent and each point is worth 0.5p)

Stack 3:

Purchase a gift card for the remaining cost via EverUp or similar to get additional cashback. EverUp is currently showing 3.5% cashback

Iceland: £50 off 4 shops

If you are a new customer for Iceland’s online grocery delivery service you can take advantage of a new offer they have launched that gives you:

• £20 off first £60 shop

• £10 off second £60 shop

• £10 off third £60 shop

• £10 off fourth £60 shop

As all of these offers are over £40 they will qualify for free delivery and this may be a good way to stock up the freezer or cupboard, particularly noting their good multi-buy offers that they tend to run at the end of each month

You can also stack this offer using EverUp gift cards again but would not be able to use any other offers in combination with the above, to use this promo you must use the promo code SAVE-TWENTY at checkout

Iceland is currently 2.5% cashback on EverUp

FREE Ice Lollies for Sky Customers

Whilst you’re in Sainsbury’s snagging some cheap chocolate, why not grab a milkshake to wash it down with, well if you’re a Sky customer you can get one for free!

Sky have been releasing weekly gifts for their Sky VIP customers (simply download the MySky app and you’ll get access)

This week you can get a FREE box of Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Ice Lollies - this does not work at small high street stores

You only get 60 minutes to scan the barcode from activating it so don’t activate too early and assume you’ll need help from a colleague as they can be temperamental to scan yourselves! I would recommend heading to a self-scan till rather than a scan as you shop till as the barcode readers are more receptive of the moving barcodes!

Not a Sky customer? If you’re thinking about joining Sky, you can get a bonus if you sign up through a referral link. Message me for mine!

BEST Free Money Offers

Robinhood - Free Share worth up to $175

Robinhood is a commission-free investing app used by millions in the US and new UK customers who open an account through my link can get a free share worth between $7 and $175 for depositing just £1

Klarna - FREE £25

It is no secret that I do not love Klarna, their overall tactics and position in the Buy Now Pay Later market is something that doesn’t sit right with me

However, they have launched a new debit card referral scheme which is worth looking at in isolation

This works for existing customers who do not have a debit card with them

How to get £25

1. Message me “KLARNA” on Instagram for a referral link

2. Enter your email address at the link I send you

3. Create an account and sign up for the Klarna Card

4. Add this card to a digital wallet (Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.)

5. Spend £5+ 3 times with the card

   • Top-ups no longer work and this must be made up of legitimate spending (I suggest splitting your grocery shop into 3 transactions at the self-checkout)

6. You will receive £10 into your “cashback” pot

7. Redeem this into your card

8. Message me when you’ve done this and I will pay you £15 on top

9. You can then spend the £10 on the card or top up Revolut, etc and close the account should you wish

10. You should also be able to refer your family and friends to complete the same, earning £40 per referral (capped at 10)

According to Klarna’s own terms and conditions, there will be no impact on your credit score when applying for the Klarna Card which is a debit card product

Please note that my decision is final and the £15 bonus will only be paid once the owner of the referral link receives their referral bonus and anyone who appears to be attempting to ruin the good nature of this offer will not be paid, £15 cashback will be paid by bank transfer
