    And if you want something to import them to there’s 1000 clubcard points with iPods at the minute. Not just pink ones either!

  • Andrew says:

    What’s a CD?

    • Rob says:

      Buy the CD, burn to iTunes, sell CD!

      It also lets you actually own the music instead of just borrowing it for a fee from Apple.

  • Andrew says:

    Have just noticed a ‘TESCO CLUBCARD FEBRUARY PRIZE DRAW AWARD’ of 1500 avios in my account after converting some expiring clubcard points a couple of months ago. Not exactly like the transfer bonuses of the past but better than nothing.

    Surely Avios/Tesco are missing a trick by not notifying the lucky winners of their prizes.
