I’m new to Jam Doughnut, but am quite experienced when it comes to these marginal 1-10% gains. Curve, Airtime, TopCashBack, Quidco (on odd occasions it’s good), TopGiftCards, Vouchercodes and code stacking wherever possible (Boots is one of the best for it).
This is the only way to get discount on places like Tesco and Ikea, which alone makes it worthwhile to me.
I have a very good use case for Jam Doughnut that many may not automatically think of. If out for a meal at a Miller & Carter, Ember inns, Harvester, Toby Carvery, Nandos, Wagamama etc you can take off 10-15% off the bill with Jam Doughnut. Just ask for the bill and when they give you that 5 mins to go through the bill just purchase a gift card for the exact amount and pay with that.
I recently got the below savings:
Miller and Carter: £156.72 meal – Saving £14.10
Vintage inns: £78.73 – Saving £7.73
Ask Italian (kids party): £143.25 – Savings £7.52
This is almost £30 for three gift cards I wouldn’t have bought. People just automatically pay with their credit cards. You get Amex pts too if you choose Apple Pay, so it’s effectively free money. One waiter even asked me to refer him when he saw what I did, so I doubt many are doing this. Works for drinks too of course…
Hope this helps anyone.
My referral is PBNR if anyone wants to use it.
