Nescafe pick me ups

A while ago nescafe started putting beans on the back of its coffee jars that you can save up and get rewards, the only thing you have to pay for is the p&p which isnt that much, i have been saving and got quite a few things, (the dressing gown is lovely), some of you will probably already know but for those who dont its worth having a look, NESCAFÉ pick-me-ups - turn beans into gifts

Re: Nescafe pick me ups

I have 2 jars in my cupboard with a total of 4 beans. I have just had a quick look on the site, and the number of beans needed for freebies isn't enormous.
Thanks Jackie - I would never have known about this without your mention of it, because I only read labels on other type foods, not coffee.

LOL's .. didn't click onto this properly over Christmas .. was just about to throw an empty away and open a new one, when daughter interrupted and screamed "Don't Mum, you collecting these ? well I am !" and hurriedly tore these little strips off the label, with no further explanation :rolleyes:

Just realised through your thread Jacky what she was on about .. the cheeky muppet .. will have to start reading more labels ! They were both 300g jars, so not sure how many beans you get for this size ?

Will have to remember to hide my coffee jars next time she visits ...:(

Will do jacky .. still suppose she could do with a new dressing gown .. but hek ! so could I :pmad:

Still at least someone getting some use out of them, would have just gone in the bin (sorry, Blue Box) otherwise :D Wonder if our bin men notice things like this ?

Re: Nescafe pick me ups

Anne has done this for ages and has loads of stuff from them
can i make a hint or two here:)
1) you save the beans and give the me to get accyweb prizes with.
2)you send off for something and give it me as a prize for accyweb :hidewall:
i will give karma in exchange:D
if you do have some i can have pm me and i will send you my address.
it would save me money having to buy all the prizes i have had a few donations of prizes but not many

Re: Nescafe pick me ups

you also get a magazine through the post (free) with a spare card on the back so you can collect more beans, also when your reward arrives you get more saving cards, just a note the dressing gowns only come in small & large and white only, the large isnt all that large also the towel and slipper set the slippers are also in small & large the large would fit no bigger than a size 7, they have now just added some electric kitchen scales for 15 beans, thats next on my list
