I used to get points when I shopped at Sainsbury, but they aren't my nearest supermarket any more. To be less trouble I go with Dad, and he favours Tesco. I put my shopping on his bonus card. They get a holiday a year out of it, good for them (you can use points at a Travel Agnecy).

Apart from that I have a number of bonus cards, but don't spend enough money to get anything back these days. Still, one day soon I hope!

How about companies that give out pointers when you use their services, like:
If you slice bagels before you freeze them, you can toast them right out of the freezer w/o thawing them first.

Or

If you put a small sandwich baggie over your kid's foot it helps their feet slip into their winter boots easier.

Useful stuff like that.

I prefer companies that give out packets when you use their servers.

My gyno gives out porks when you use their cervixes.

Never mind...
