Offers to Earn More Avios/Virgin Points, Last Chance for Amex Dining Credit - News You May Have Missed - 29 June

For today's post, I wanted to highlight some great offers to earn Avios, Virgin Points, or to save you cash. We've spoken about the Avios shopping portal before, but did you know that Virgin Atlantic have their own version? We use these two websites all the time to maximise our points, hopefully you do too!

The easiest way to earn points is through shopping portals

Avios

For this, you'll need to go via the Avios shopping portal (read here if you don't know what I'm talking about). Here are some of the great offers available:

Once again, rewards are not calculated on postage/handling/delivery costs or associated purchase taxes in your region (This may include but not be limited to VAT, etc).

Virgin Atlantic Shops Away also have many good bonus offers available at the moment

Our top personal tip: always go via the Avios shopping portal, or Virgin Shops Away, when shopping online, you never know how many points you might be leaving on the table.

Amex Dining Last Chance

For those of you who have an American Express Platinum card, you only have two more days to use your £100 dining credit. Helena wrote about this a few weeks ago, but if you happen to have a spare evening, this is your final reminder. You could always be like this Redditor who flew to Barcelona just for one day, to make the most of the abroad part of their dining credit.
