Smyths: up to £10 off
Smyths is offering £5 off a £50 spend and £10 off a £100 spend until 24 November 2024. You don’t need a code, the discount will be given to you at the checkout. In store only.
If you like to crack open a jigsaw in the winter period, Hobbycraft is offering 50% off puzzles. Almost its entire range is in the offer, including ones for kids to puzzles with 2,000 pieces.
From Sparks offers to freebies – we’ll list them here
At one point it seemed like every couple of months there was a 20% off at M&S voucher! Though less frequent nowadays, if you can hold off, it’s worth waiting until the deals come along. I’ll list these and other great offers on this page.
Remember with many of these deals you can stack them, meaning you can combine the offers to get even bigger discounts.

Beauty: £330 beauty advent calendar for £60
You can get a £330 M&S beauty advent calendar for £60. You previously only got it when you spent £35 on full-price clothing, homeware or beauty, but it’s now scrapped the minimum spend amount so anyone can get it.
The Beauty Advent Calendar 2025 includes a selection of 25 products, including some full-size products across bath and body, skincare, haircare and make-up.
Now, just because M&S say it’s worth £330 it doesn’t mean it actually is. You can see the entire contents here, so use that to work out whether it’s not just worth paying £60 for.
The 20% off codes were almost every month pre-2020, but now they’re pretty rare. When they do appear you usually need to have a Sparks membership – or know someone who does.
You can either activate the offer to your card from your online account or the Sparks app. You might also get an email or some vouchers in the post, including spare codes to give to friends and family members, though I’ve not had these in quite a while.
The offer also tends to be split over two weekends, with some customers getting the deal in week one of the promotion and others a week later.
It’s a lot rarer for generic codes for everyone. When these offers come up there’s often a digital code (which I’ll share here), and occasionally a voucher you can print to use in stores.
Latest 20% off weekend
If an offer is running you’ll see it in your Sparks account, or you might have received an email.
We don’t know if all Sparks customers will get it this weekend or not. Offers seem to be ad hoc in the Sparks app, and not universal to all customers.
If not, it’s worth checking with family and friends to see if they’ve got a code you can use.
Members of the free M&S Sparks loyalty scheme get offers sent to their account frequently and can be for food, clothing, home or beauty. There’s a lot of recurring offers, so if you know you need something, it may be worth holding out for that offer to become live again before you purchase. You can sign up to Sparks here.
How often you get sent Sparks offers does vary, but there does tend to be a new selection every three to four weeks or so. Sparks offers range from money off to free products, so it’s always worth checking your M&S app for your latest since they include personalised offers.
If you’re expecting or recently had a baby, you can sign up for the M&S baby club which gets you free cake, a pastry or a fruit pot when you buy a hot drink on Tuesdays between 9.30am and 11.30am.
To get it, you need to be a Sparks member, then from the app you select “the parent hood” and just have to give a few details like your due date. Once you’re signed up, you’ll have an offer in your Sparks app that can be scanned every Tuesday for a year.
The baby club also gets you 10% off babygrows for a year and other monthly rewards such as discount on Mamas and Papas products.
New Sparks members should get a welcome offer when they first sign up. When I joined in 2020 I got a free tote bag, while in spring 2021 the advertised offer was a £5 discount on a £40 spend on food and drink, and 10% off fashion and home.
The more you scan your Sparks card when you shop at M&S, the higher the chance you’ll get a free birthday treat. There’s no guarantee – I didn’t get anything this year.

Extra savings
Alongside sales and regular promotions, it’s possible to save more with these ongoing vouchers and tricks.
Free £5 off £35 voucher
You can get a £5 voucher to spend on M&S clothes when you take old clothes to Oxfam, or if you drop the clothes off in-store instead you’ll get a Sparks reward. More details on the Shwop scheme.
You can shop at the M&S website via cashback sites such as Quidco and TopCashback, earning you money back on each purchase. If you’ve not used either of these sites before you can also get up to £20 extra as a first-time cashback bonus.
Thought it’s one of the pricier supermarkets I tend to shop at M&S most weeks as it’s the one right by my office. To help make it more affordable we use a number of tricks. You can read about how to save money at M&S Food.

One of the most infuriating parts of online shopping is having to pay for delivery, and most of us are no strangers to shopping elsewhere if delivery is an additional cost.
But before you close that tab, give some of these tips a go to get a discount on your delivery fees.
Some articles on the site contain affiliate links, which provide a small commission to help fund our work. However, they won’t affect the price you pay or our editorial independence. Read more here.
Top up your order with everyday essentials
Some shops only offer free delivery if you spend above a threshold. This is often really annoying, especially when you’re just a few quid out.
Try to avoid websites which help you find random cheap items such as washers that you don’t need – you’re still paying extra when you do this and these items are likely to just end up in the bin.
Instead, keep a list of those everyday essentials you know you’ll need at some point, like stamps, batteries or hand soap – all of which can be bought at Amazon, Tesco, Ocado, and other major supermarket websites. When you’re falling short, just add some of these in.
Top up your order with returnable items
An alternative is to add items you know you don’t want with the intention of returning them. Andy’s done this with John Lewis to get to the £50 threshold before.
Since anything you buy online can be returned within 14 days of you receiving the goods, the shops have to refund you. The only exception is anything that has been customised or is perishable.
Watch out for return charges
It’s not just delivery where you could have to pay – more and more retailers will now charge you for returns. And some places might later charge you for delivery if what you keep ends up below the free delivery threshold.
If you’re not sure whether you’ll keep what you buy, especially if you are trying multiple sizes and styles, then it’s worth shopping around to compare return costs.
It might even be worth paying a little more if you know you’ll pay less to send the items back.
A few stores will offer a free trial of a delivery pass, usually giving unlimited deliveries or at least some money off.
However, be careful that this trial doesn’t become one you pay for afterwards if you don’t think it offers value. And even then, the idea behind this type of membership is to encourage you to keep shopping with them, as opposed to shopping around, which might work out cheaper even if you have to pay for delivery.
Collect in-store or at a locker
Another option to reduce delivery fees is to order online and then collect in-store or at a locker, with this often done for free. Yes, this does mean you have to go to the shops, but at least you know what you are buying will be there when you arrive, and you’re much less likely to throw extra impulse items in the basket.
Plus, you can check your purchase at the shop. So if you don’t like it or it doesn’t fit you can usually return it there and then, saving an extra trip.
Rather cheekily, some retailers still charge for click-and-collect, but it’s worth a go.

Get a free delivery code
This can be a bit more work, but some retailers often have a free delivery code. The best bet is to have a little Google and see what comes up. If you’re signed up to their mailing list, check if you have an email offering free delivery.
Be careful if you are using a cashback site, as you might find the cashback claim is rejected for combining offers. Be sure to check the terms and conditions.
There are also some browser extensions available that will notify you if they find a deal – Zoe in the team has had some good luck with PayPal’s Honey in the past.
You could also try asking for a free delivery code on live chat via the website and see if they can do something for you.
Or, put the items you want to buy in your basket, leave it a little while, and see if the retailer pops you an email to ask if you’ve forgotten to check out — there’s sometimes a discount code or free delivery code to give you that extra push.

It’s also worth checking that the item isn’t for sale at another shop with free or cheaper delivery. Even if the item itself costs more, the total amount including delivery could well be less.
Price matching can be a great way to pick up free delivery at the same low price you spot elsewhere.
When is your credit rating good or bad? And what does it mean?
I’ve got four different credit scores. 1,250, 999, 970 and 671. Is one better than the other? You’d assume that since 1250 is highest, that’s my best one. And the lowest at 671 needs some work.
But all are actually classed as “excellent”. And the 1,250 and 999 are from the exact same data – but with different ranges.
So it’s clear that it’s not a simple case of saying the higher the number is better!
In this article I’ll help you get an idea of how good your score actually is, and how the different classifications of bands could impact your changes of borrowing money and applying for credit.
Some articles on the site contain affiliate links, which provide a small commission to help fund our work. However, they won’t affect the price you pay or our editorial independence. Read more here.
The problems with credit score ranges
The main issue with credit scores is there isn’t just one. In fact there are three different companies providing scores, and they don’t all use the same data about your finances.
Another problem with credit scores is they’re calculated in completely different ways. You can’t really use a number to say if it’s good or bad without the wider context such as the range that number is taken from. Some are out of around 1,250, others out closer to 700.
And, to complicate it even more, the companies you apply to don’t actually use these scores! They access the data behind the scores from the credit reference agencies alongside any information you provide. They also look for different things depending what you’re applying for.
So clearly it’s not always so obvious what a good score is and to know whether you’re going to be accepted for whatever credit youre applying for.
What credit scores are excellent, good, fair and poor?
Here’s how the three different credit reference agencies class each score, as well as their own ranges.
Experian
Experian is the biggest of the agencies. They score out of 999, but are changing to out of 1250 by the end of 2025. Accounts are gradually being moved to the new system from mid-November.
However, some bank apps that show you your Experian score will use the old range, out of 999.
Experian credit score ranges (new system)
Excellent 1,121-1,250
Very good 1,001-1,120
Good 861-1,000
Fair 641-860
Low 0-640
Experian credit score ranges (old system)
Excellent 961-999
Good 881-960
Fair 721-880
Poor 561-720
Very poor 0-560
What Experian’s changes mean for you
There’s a good chance the new larger range will mean you move up or down a tier. Experian say two in five (42%) will see an increase in score or band.
However, a similar number (44%) will go down a band. The rest will be in the same band but see a lower score (for instance they were 999 on the old system, but aren’t 1,250 on the new one).
The big thing to note here is if your score or band is worse under the new system, it doesn’t actually mean it’ll be any harder to get credit when you apply.
Experian told me that you’ll be able to see if recent action has impacted your new score, so you’ll be able to tell if a drop is down to the new bands or something else.
The new scores also take into account things that previously were missed off. This includes positive actions such as rent payments, overpaying mortgages and clearing an overdraft. Negative impacts that could now be reflected include taking money out with a credit card.
You’ll notice too that Experian has swapped “poor” for “low”. This is because they found the old wording discouraged people from trying to improve their score.
Equifax
Equifax changed their range from 1-700 to 1-1,000 back in 2021.
Equifax credit score ranges
Excellent 811+
Very Good 671-810
Good 531-670
Fair 439-530
Poor 0-438
Transunion
TransUnion, which you can access for free through Credit Karma, scores out of 710.
Transunion credit score ranges
Excellent 628+
Good 604-627
Fair 566-603
Needs work 1-565
What’s an average credit score in the UK?
Experian offers a map where you can break down scores by regions (and age too if you want). For Manchester the average credit score is 743, which ranks as the bottom end of Fair. For Bristol, it’s 805, halfway through Fair, while Tonbridge in Kent comes in at 844, near the top of Fair.
How important is a credit score?
The most important thing to say here is credit scores don’t actually mean anything definitively. They’re an indicator of how good or bad your credit report is (I’ve explained more in this article about credit reports).
But this isn’t the only information lenders take into account. Extra details you provide, such as your salary, could help or hinder your chances of acceptance. In fact, they won’t even see this score, and will create their own version of it based on their own criteria, the info on your credit report and the extra details they have.
Really the number itself is pretty meaningless, except to measure your progress when trying to improve it. If you see it go up you know you’re doing the right things.
If you see it dip then it could be a sign you need to take some actions – though it’ll always fall a little after a new application and will right itself after a while.

What do the different credit score ranges mean?
Really it’s probably better to look at the category your credit score sites in. Broadly scoring in the different ranges from excellent down to very poor is likely to mean the following:
What an excellent credit score means
Across the agencies “excellent” suggests you’ll probably get accepted for most types of credit and be offered the best rates and deals. But there’s no guarantee and you could still get rejected when you apply.
What a very good credit score means
A “very good” credit score indicates you will usually be accepted for credit, though you might not get the best deals.
What a good credit score means
A “good” score means there is still a decent chance you’ll get accepted but you won’t get the best deals or rates. For example, you might get a lower credit limit or a shorter 0% period. It’s even more important to use soft checks, particularly on credit card applications, to find out who will accept you.
What a fair credit score means
An “average” or “fair” score likely means your options will be more limited, and subject to higher interest rates or lower credit and borrowing limits.
What a poor / low / needs work credit score means
If your score is classed as “low”, “poor” or “needs work” – and it’s likely you’ll be seen as high risk to lend to therefore far less likely to be accepted when applying for credit, or only be able to get products with high interest rates.

A Tastecard membership gives you 2-4-1 and up to 50% off meals and cinema tickets across the country
Tastecard, Gourmet Society, Dine Card and Hi-Life Dining are the leading restaurant discount schemes, which often also come with savings at the cinema. Here are the latest offers, as well as more about how the memberships work and whether they are any good.
The bulk of these offers are for digital memberships, which means you access your card via the app on your smartphone. However, at times there are a couple of deals which come with a physical card – but do check when you click through.
Some articles on the site contain affiliate links, which provide a small commission to help fund our work. However, they won’t affect the price you pay or our editorial independence. Read more here.
Top Tastecard offers
Most Tastecard offers are 2 for 1 or 50% off food. For when there aren’t any free trials of Tastecard, it’s got a monthly membership option, which means you can still give it a go without paying for a full year.
Tastecard: 50% off & £20 Pizza Express voucher
There’s currently a low price offer through the link below where you can get a Tastecard membership for £29.99. Alongside this you get a £20 voucher for Pizza Express
If you have the Lidl+ app then you can get a 90 day free trial of Tastecard. You’ll need to click through via the app. This is available until 19 January 2026.
There’s currently a free trial on offer through the link below where you can get a Tastecard membership free for 60 days. The membership will auto-renew at £29.99 at the end of the trial unless you cancel it, which you can do at any time.
Unfortunately we don’t know when this offer is ending.
If you want to give Tastecard a go without committing to a full year, then you can opt for the monthly membership for £2.99 per month, but remember to cancel it if you don’t use it.
If you’re a student, or if you’ve ever had a Totum card from NUS or graduated in the last three years, you can buy an NUS Totum card which now comes with a free Tastecard. You’ll also get discounts at Apple, Co-op and more.
On the surface, Gourmet Society looks like a similar offering. But the deals can be different. For a start, it tends to offer 25% off the full bill including drinks, which could work out as a bigger saving for you. So do check the restaurants and deals before deciding which is best for you.
Gourmet Society: 60-days free membership
This free trial will get you 60 days. When the deal ends it will auto-renew at £5.99 a month.
Gourmet Society: Free with Club Lloyds current account
You can get a year of Gourmet Society membership as a ‘Lifestyle Benefit’ via the Club Lloyds bank account. However, you might be better off choosing free cinema tickets or a magazine subscription. More details here on the account and the different benefits.
These are similar, if not the same, as Tastecard and might represent better value depending on where you live and places you eat at.
Meerkat Meals: One year for £1(ish)
If you buy a one-day travel insurance product via Compare the Market you get access to both Meerkat Movies and the new Meerkat Meals. It’s more restrictive than Tastecard and Gourmet Soc, but it’s not a bad deal when paired with the movie offer. We’ve written more in detail about what you get with Meerkat Meals and how it compares.
What is Tastecard?
Tastecard restaurant offers
Tastecard is a membership scheme primarily offering money off at restaurants in the UK.
There are thousands of restaurants listed on Tastecard, from your local Indian to chains such as Pizza Express and Prezzo. They offer up to 50% off or 2 for 1 discounts. Do look for exclusions such as weekends or the number of people you can use the membership for on a table.
The membership is digital only, which you access via the Tastecard app. You simply show the card in the participating restaurant, normally before you order and certainly before you ask for the bill. Some restaurants require you to book in advance and to tell them you are using Tastecard. If this is the case, it will be listed on the specific restaurant tile on the app.
Tastecard + cheap movie rentals
A recent addition to Tastecard is the ability to get £1 off e-vouchers to use on movie rental site Rakuten.
Tastecard + cinema deals
You can get discounted tickets at Showcase, Odeon, Vue, Picturehouse and Cineworld. Though do compare the discounted price with the box office price – it’s not always cheaper!
Gourmet Society and other schemes
Gourmet Society, High Life and Meerkat Meals are all run by the same company as Tastecard, and have a lot of similar deals. But each offers a slightly different discount and a few different restaurants, so it’s worth comparing them all to see which is best for you. Read our comparison of Tastecard, Gourmet Society, High Life and Meerkat Meals.
Are dining membership cards worth the money?
At full price (£79) I don’t think a Tastecard is worth the money, but around £30 isn’t a bad price as you’ll be even after a couple of meals out. Then the savings start. I’d definitely try a trial offer first just to see whether you’re likely to use it.
Before buying, check the Tastecard site to see what restaurants are included near you. If that looks good, take advantage of the offers below and go grab it!
All of the deals for ODEON, Vue, Cineworld, Everyman, Picturehouse and more!
In this article you’ll find all the latest cinema ticket deals and offers, starting with the ones you can’t miss, then some chain specific offers, and then a few more well worth a look.

Top cinema offers
2-4-1 via Meerkat Movies for £1
One of the most popular cinema deals is Meerkat Movies. Once a week you can access a code to get buy-one-get-one-free tickets on a Tuesday or Wednesday. You can use this deal at most UK cinemas all year (though not Everyman or Curzon).
You can get six free ODEON or Vue tickets if you open a Club Lloyds bank account. You’ll need to deposit £2,000 into the account each month to avoid a fee, but that’s easily done.
At Vue cinemas, your vouchers also entitle you to half price popcorn. At ODEON cinemas, you can redeem your vouchers at ODEON Kids Screenings, which come with a free kids-size popcorn per ticket.
You can claim a free, standard ticket at any Vue in the UK every month. You can upgrade to a VIP, 3D, recliner or IMAX ticket but you’ll pay an extra fee.
You’ll need to use the code before the end of each calendar month, but it can be for a screening at a later date. Monzo Perks costs £7 per month and comes with a range of money saving benefits, including an annual Railcard and weekly Greggs freebies.
Whether you’re buying a full price ticket, or stacking with other offers featured on this page, you’ll save a little by using a discounted gift card.
Some of these are special offers at retailers like Tesco or Amazon where you save when you buy. When these are available we’ll share them as featured deals.
Others will learn you cashback on your gift card purchase, and these tend to run all year around via these apps:
There’s a good chance you can save up to 40% on cinema tickets via an existing membership or account – and if not, you could sign up as a new customer.
The likes of Tastecard, Mastercard and Lidl offer you access to a service called Cinema Society which sells reduced tickets for ODEON, Vue, Picturehouse, Showcase, Cineworld, Empire and other independent cinemas.
This can be a good way to save, but watch out as you might find your local cinema is cheaper itself when you buy direct! Or some of the other deals we’ve shared on this page could also work out better value.
In some cases you’ll need to pay for the initial membership, but others are free. Though you can find these in a number of places (check any work perk schemes for instance), here’s some of the more common ones you might have access to.
We’ve listed more offers, both specific to the different chains and across different cinemas, below, but these ones in particular are worth a look:
Everyman: 2-4-1 Wednesday with Times+
Escapes: free film preview tickets
ODEON ticket deals and offers
Don’t forget we may have featured some ODEON deals in our ‘Top cinema deals’ section above, including how to hack 2-4-1 tickets for £1.

Deal expiry: Ongoing offer
If you’re a Vodafone customer then you can get two ODEON cinema tickets every week with VeryMe Rewards. You can do this once each week for any film showing at any time.
Two standard tickets will cost £8, while two Luxe tickets cost £13.
You can also get four standard for £16 and four Luxe for £26.
The voucher can only be used on the same screening, so you couldn’t use it for one ticket at two screenings for example.
You’ll need to pay an additional £1 booking fee when using the voucher on the ODEON website, though this covers the whole booking. If you use it at the box office you won’t pay this extra charge.
To get it, you just need to tap on ‘Rewards’ in the Vodafone app and claim the offer.
Don’t forget we may have featured some Vue deals in our ‘Top cinema deals’ section above, including free tickets via bank accounts.
Vue: free tickets via Club Perks
Vue have launched a new reward scheme called Club Vue. Each time you buy a ticket you’ll get a stamp, and once you have 10 stamps you’ll get a free ticket. There are also ‘bonus treats’, so something to look out for.
You need to download the Club Vue app and join the free Vue Member scheme.
There’s only one stamp per booking, so you might want to book multiple seats separately. You’ll also only get the stamp if you book in advance on the app or website, and not via the box office.
The free ticket is for a standard 2D showing, so won’t work for 3D or other premium tickets though you can pay extra to upgrade. You’ve three months to use the free ticket once it’s been issued, and you can use it online or in person.
This appears to work with free tickets too, such as those from Lloyds Bank or Vitality, so you might not even need to spend anything to get a stamp.
If you’ve got Sky Cinema, you can get two free standard Vue cinema tickets every month. The tickets can be used at any Vue cinema in the UK or Ireland, at any time Sunday – Thursday.
You’ll need the MySky app to get access to this offer, where you’ll find a code to use online and a QR code to use in the cinema.
There’s a limit to how many free tickets Sky gives out each month, so you may need to get in early.
Vue: two tickets for £7 with O2 and Virgin Media (ended)
Deal expiry: 3 November 2025
If you’re a broadband customer with O2 or Virgin Media you can use the O2 Priority app for discounted tickets.

We’ve also details of Cineworld and Picturehouse memberships later on this page.

Escapes: free film preview tickets
With Cinematik, you can get free tickets to select films for free. Each month, a film is voted to be screened and you can book to see it on a specific day. You can book a maximum of one ticket per screening. You also have the option to reserve an additional ticket for a guest, which they’ll need to confirm separately via a shareable invite link.
The cinemas taking part are mainly local independent ones, but there are Picturehouse and Reel cinemas included. There’s a full list of all participating cinemas on the Cinematik website.
Mubi is an online streaming service. For £11.99 a month you get a classic, world cinema or art-house flick to watch, with the curated selection adding a new film every day.
For an extra £7 per month you also get a free cinema ticket every week via the Mubi Go service. There’s a 7-day free trial and if you sign up for an annual membership, you’ll save 33%.
You typically won’t be able to watch blockbusters, instead there’s a specific new film every week. You can go to see that film once, and another film choice will be given the following week.
With many of the films being smaller, they’ll have limited releases, so if you don’t live in a big city there’s a good chance you won’t be able to take advantage every week as not all the films will be shown at all cinemas.
If you’ve got a Vitality membership, usually offered as a healthcare perk with employers, then you can nab yourself a free Vue or ODEON ticket once each month.
You need to earn Vitality points each month for tracking your activity, then just log into the website or app to generate your personal cinema ticket code.
Enter your code on the cinema’s website when booking your tickets.
You can buy a ticket from £5.60 to use for movies at Vue, Cineworld or ODEON with the entertainment site Fever.
The actual price you’ll pay varies by location. If you have a larger town or city close by, you could get a better discount by choosing a cinema there instead.
Again, do check you can’t get a ticket for less via a different offer before buying.
Here’s what you need to know about getting discounted tickets with Fever:
ODEON: you can get a standard 2D ticket at select cinemas in the UK. It’s not valid at Luxe locations or the Islington Luxe & Dine. If you want to upgrade to IMAX, 3D or recliner seats, you’ll have to pay extra.
You can use the voucher online via the ODEON website or app, but there’s a £1 fee per ticket. You can also redeem the voucher at cinema kiosks – but not at the box office. The voucher can’t be used for special screenings or events and can’t be combined with other offers.
Vue: you can get a ticket for a film either online or via the Box Office. Each voucher is only valid once and if you cancel your booking, you won’t get it back.
It’s not valid for premieres, special events or things like Mini Mornings or Scene screenings. With a Super Saver voucher, you can book general 2D seating, while VIP vouchers give more options, including recliners and 3D screenings (with an upgrade fee).
Cineworld: you can get a ticket for any standard 2D film, but if you want to upgrade to 3D, IMAX or 4DX you’ll have to pay extra (plus the cost of 3D glasses if needed). If you’re booking online, there’s a small fee added.
You can’t use this ticket for Event Cinema, special screenings, Movies for Juniors or ViP seats though, so check before booking.
ODEON: Family ticket – you can get adult tickets at child prices for the same film. You’ll see the option at check out for an adult and child combo ticket.
Vue: tickets for £2.49 – Vue Mighty Mornings are kids screenings on Saturday and Sunday mornings at 10am and every day of the school holidays.
Cineworld: from £2.50 – kids and adults pay the same price via Movies for Juniors.
Picturehouse: from £3.30 per ticket – kids’ Club screenings are shown every Saturday morning and prices depend on the cinema you visit. There’s also preschool specials, exclusively for preschool children and the adult goes for free. With the family ticket option, adults only pay kids prices. It’s for four people, at least two must be under 15 (e.g. two adults and two kids or one adult and three kids).
Cheap over 60s cinema tickets
Over 60s tickets from £3.50
ODEON, Cineworld and Picturehouse have cheaper tickets for over 60s (Vue don’t have anything on offer at the moment). Here’s our roundup of the deals:
ODEON: from £3.50 per ticket – ODEON Silvers has screenings during quieter times of the day with a selection of new releases or classic films. Tickets with standard seats are £3.50 when you book as a myODEON member online and £4.50 in-cinema. Standard seats are £4.00 when you book online as a guest and £5.00 in cinema. The price includes tea, coffee and biscuits, served before the film.

We’ll share any discounts on membership here when they’re available.
Picturehouse: free tickets and £3 off with memberships
Picturehouse memberships give you free tickets and discounts at any Picturehouse cinema. The free tickets are sometimes restricted to your member cinema so it’s best to save them for the weekends when prices go up.
There’s two tiers of membership – Member and Member Plus. The Member option gives you five free tickets and costs between £57 and £97 per year depending on the member cinema you join.
Member Plus gives you an extra card so you can split the costs with a mate or family member. You’ll get ten free tickets and it costs between £100 and £170 per year.
After the freebies you’ll also get £3 off our further tickets.
Members also get a 10% discount on food and drink, free previews, no online booking fees and occasional other freebies.
At certain points in the year there are discounts on memberships, and we’ll share them here if they’re any good.
There are a few options here, though the basic one (i.e. cheapest) allows you to take a friend for free on Mondays. You also get six free tickets for the £89 cost.
The next level up costs £325 a year, and comes with 24 free tickets. After this you can spend £680 and get unlimited tickets for two for a year.
For £65 (£50 concessions) you can get an annual “Classic” membership. This comes with five credits to use for free tickets or at home streams. You can use the credit to buy tickets for yourself and guests. There’s a further 20% discount for you and a guest on other tickets. You’ll also get 10% off drinks and snacks.
If you go to a Curzon a lot, there is a £285 “Cult” option. This annual membership gives you five free credits a week. Use them all and it’s just £1.10 a ticket! You can’t use the credits to get a ticket for a guest. If you want to pay monthly it’s £25 a month, but you’re still tied in for 12 months.
The Cult + membership doubles down with 10 free tickets a week (which are valid for events such as theatre and ballet screenings) and an additional cardholder. It comes in at £850 a year.

Cineworld has brought back its Family Films for £1 from 25 July. You can get tickets for just £1 each to selected family films, starting with The Wild Robot from July 25 to 31.

Trading 212, Monzo, Starling, Chase, Halifax Clarity and more travel cards compared for overseas spending
If you’re heading out of the UK, using the wrong card for spending and cash withdrawals will mean you’re hit with extra fees on every transaction.
The good news is there are a decent number of debit and credit cards which offer near-perfect exchange rates. Here’s our guide to the top specialist travel cards.
Some articles on the site contain affiliate links, which provide a small commission to help fund our work. However, they won’t affect the price you pay or our editorial independence. Read more here.
Our top travel debit cards
The cheapest cards are usually specialist debit cards that come via specific current accounts. You don’t have to switch banks to get these – you can simply open up a brand new extra account, and many won’t perform hard checks on your credit report either.
If this is an extra account you get just for holidays, it’s easy to transfer money across, whether as a lump sum or as you go along, using your online or app banking. Or of course, it could be your main current account where your salary is paid each month.
A benefit of debit cards over credit cards is you won’t get charged interest to take cash out of an ATM, though as you’ll see a couple do have monthly limits on your fee-free spending or withdrawals.
It used to be there were only a handful, but there are quite a few to choose from. However, since Chase ended the cashback on overseas spending, there’s not really much to choose between the bulk of them. Here are our top picks.
Top pick: PayPal+
The new PayPal debit card offers 1% back at home and abroad with no limits or fees, making it out top pick. You can also withdraw money for free.
The Trading 212 debit card pays 0.5% cashback on purchases at home and abroad, but this is often increased to 1.5% if you auto-invest your cashback. When this is runningit has the edge over PayPal.
Trading 212 debit card summary
Spending overseas
Fee-free (Mastercard rate)
Cash withdrawals overseas
Free, but contactless only
Other benefits
0.5% to 1.5% cashback on all spending (capped at £15 a month)
The following are also fee-free but only worth considering if you’re an existing customer or looking for extras like rewards and travel insurance.
Cumberland Building Society: fully fee-free but requires a £750 a month deposit to the account. Hard credit search
Halifax Ultimate Reward: a packaged account with travel, breakdown and gadget cover that’s got free spending
Santander (other accounts): you won’t be charged for cash withdrawals only if you use a Santander machine outside the UK, but you will pay for spending
TSB Spend & Save Plus: fee-free spending and the potential to earn £5 cashback a month, but has £3 monthly fee
Andy’s Top Tips
When you’re using one of these top travel cards, you’re often best paying in the local currency. If you pay in sterling, it’ll be swapped over at an exchange rate of the local bank’s choosing – which won’t necessarily be in your favour!
Also, though many of the cards we’ve mentioned are fee-free to use in ATMs, that doesn’t mean the local bank won’t add its own fee. So you’ll need to research for any that don’t do this in your destination, or plan ahead by making as few withdrawals as possible.

Our top travel credit cards
Specialist credit cards can be great for overseas spending as long as you pay off the debt before any interest is charged.
Credit cards are particularly handy for things like hiring a car or putting deposits down on hotel rooms. The money can be held on these without leaving your account. You’ll also get Section 75 consumer rights protection.
With all credit card applications, make sure you check your eligibility first if you can. And remember to clear the balance completely every month to avoid interest charges.
Top pick: Lloyds Ultra
This Visa card from Lloyds is our top pick for credit cards. It offers fee-free spending and, unusually, ATM withdrawals – and there’s no interest on cash you take out. However, it’s still better for your credit report to use a debit card for cash.
There’s also 1% cashback on purchases at home and abroad in the first year, decreasing to 0.25% afterwards. That’s great for holiday spending but there are better alternatives for spending in the UK.

£25 Amazon Gift Card requirementsTo qualify for the gift card, you need to complete a full switch using CASS and make five debit card transactions by 31 December 2025
These cards aren’t normal debit cards, though they work just like one when you’re spending. You actually connect your existing current account or card to them via open banking. The conversion is made by the smart card at their exchange rate, which then takes the money from the underlying bank in pounds.
This makes it cheaper to spend overseas through other bank accounts that would normally be very expensive. They can be a great backup card, or even your primary travel spending card if you really can’t be bothered to go through the hassle of opening new accounts. There’s also no credit check.
Sadly, changes to Curve, our previous top pick, means it’s really not worth it. However, you can still get these features from Currensea.
Top pick: Currensea
With Currensea there are three options, but the free “essential” tier has a no extra fees on top of the exchange rates on your first £500 a month. You can take out £200 a month from ATMs for free.
The big issue could be the limits on which banks it works with. Right now that list is only the bigger banks:
Barclays
Bank of Scotland
Couts
First Direct
Halifax
HSBC
Lloyds
Nationwide
Natwest
RBS
Santander
TSB
Ulster Bank
Virgin Money
You’ll also need to pay £4.95 to get the card delivered.
When you sign up via this link you’ll be eligible for a £10 welcome bonus – however you’ll need to spend £150 in a foreign currency in the first six months to get the cashback.
Currensea smart debit card summary
Spending overseas
Interbank/Mastercard rate on first £500 each month, then 1% FX fee on top
The cards mentioned above will convert fee-free, but only on or just after the day you make the transaction. This means you’re not in total control of your budget when you’re away. If the pound were to fall against where you’re spending, you’ll ultimately spend more cash.
But there are options where you can pay fee-free on cards where you’ve already converted your pounds into another currency. Though of course, this could mean you miss out if the rate changes in your favour.
There’s usually a slight markup on the ‘interbank’ or ‘mid-market’ rates. This tends to be lower than the Mastercard or Visa rates, so even with the fee they’re often comparable.
When you spend with them, you’ll spend in the local currency. If you don’t have the local currency, most will let you pay fee-free and convert at the current rate.
However, there are usually quite strict limits on cash withdrawals, so you’ll likely want another card on your trip. Plus most of these will charge you for a physical debit card, so you’ll be relying on virtual cards added to your phone’s wallet if you want to avoid this fee.
The following are ones worth considering:

Annual sales and offers
These are offers that tend to come back each year, so keep an eye out.
London Theatre Week (February and September)
Twice a year, TodayTix and other sites offer discounts at a decent number of West End shows in an event called London Theatre Week. It was originally running from 18 August to 31 August 2025, but it’s now been extended to 7 September.
During these dates, you can book to visit the theatre in the coming months for heavy discounts — prices are either £15, £25 or £35.
The dates you can get discounts on vary massively between productions, but for a lot of them, you can book for a couple of months. There are tickets to The Great Gatsby, My Neighbour Totoro, Hamilton and Hercules included in the promotion.
Kids Theatre Week runs every summer, and tickets generally become available in early June for shows in August. Tickets went on sale this year on 10 June 2025, and they tend to sell out fast, but more tend to be released to coincide with the start of the summer holidays.
You can get one free child’s ticket (and two more at half-price) at a series of West End shows when you buy one full-paying adult ticket. It’s for shows from 21 July to 31 August, not just one week. A child is anyone 17 years old and under.
Tickets are limited with big shows quickly selling out, but there are plenty of options including Hamilton, Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, Mamma Mia and kids’ shows The Lion King, Matilda The Musical and Alice in Wonderland. And keep an eye out, as more seats might be released for those popular productions.
The only thing I’d say is the adult tickets are full price so you might be better off looking at other deals if more than one adult is attending.
Official London Theatre New Year Sale (November 2025 to March 2026)
Official London Theatre holds a New Year sale semi-regularly, with some big shows at least 20% off. This year it starts officially on 25 November 2025, however if you have a Mastercard, you can take part in the Mastercard pre-sale via Priceless from 18 November.
Tickets are either £10, £20, £30, £40 or £50, with no booking fees.
This year, it’s running from 10 am on 18 November for performances until February. It’s often extended into March.
Each March there’s usually an offer run in conjunction with The National Lottery. In 2022 it was a 2-4-1 vouchers while in 2023 it was a free £25 Theatre Token. The latter went viral and all tokens were snapped up within 24 hours.
However, unused tokens from March were made available again, with a final chance to get tokens taking place in May.
Tickets are limited and go very fast. If you join the waiting room before 11am you’ll be randomly allocated a spot in the queue. Those joining after 11am will be put at the back of the queue – which likely means you’ll miss out.
In order to claim the voucher you’ll need a Lotto ticket or scratchcard. You’ll find a reference number on your Lotto card which you’ll enter if you make it through the queue.

Central Tickets: Get 10% extra credit with your first top-up
If you top up your Central Tickets account for the first time, you can get 10% added by Central Tickets, up to the value of £10.
The credit in your account is used as payment for seat filling bookings you make through Central Tickets. It can’t be used on West End offer tickets (listed in a separate tab on their site).
You won’t be able to get a refund on it, and it won’t be protected if Central Tickets were to go bust, so make sure you’ll make use of the money you top up before you do so.
Central Tickets will add up to £10, so you could get £110 worth of credit for £100.

There are occasionally discounts such as save 10% on Theatre Tokens – the official theatre gift card that’s valid at hundreds of locations nationwide and the TKTs Booth in the West End. We’ll add them here when we spot them.
Theatre Tokens: 10% off
If you buy a Theatre Tokens gift card and use the code Tfl then you can get 10% off your purchase. These gift cards can be redeemed at over 300 theatres nationwide and don’t have an expiry date.
You can order a total of £500 worth of gift cards per household, which would get you a £50 discount.
TodayTix: Boxing Day sale from £15 per ticket (expired)
TodayTix tends to run sales throughout the year and the latest is offering tickets from £15 for Boxing Day. There’s no end date published, but I’d expect it to be until the end of January, if not early December (though the actual performances can be after these dates).
Until 4 June you can book £25 tickets at 25 different West End shows via TodayTix. This includes Book of Mormon, We Will Rock You, Wizard of Oz and Punchdrunk’s Burnt City.
