Only knew as a friend was telling me about a (biggish) lunch out with a teacher friend, 20% discount and if I'm honest, I can't see why. The Blue Light Card offers exclusive discounts for teachers and early years educators, which may include meals. The Discounts for Teachers scheme provides various discounts for educators, including food-related offers. Many retailers and brands offer discounts directly to educators, including teaching assistants. To access these discounts, you may need to provide proof of employment, such as your work email address or school name. -

Just in time for the holidays, some joyful news—the UK government has announced plans to end the use of pig farrowing crates in England, part of a long list of animal welfare reforms announced this week. Thank you for speaking up for mother pigs. The Animal Welfare Strategy states, “Ending the use of cages and crates is a key priority for this government”, which shows that with your support, we are making vital progress. Our evidence has proven that farrowing crates, which confine mother pigs so tightly they can’t turn around for five weeks when they give birth, are horrendously cruel. And with your help, we’ve shown politicians that the British public wants compassion to lead animal policy. Please keep speaking up for pigs! In the new year, the government will launch a consultation on the transition away from farrowing crates, and we’ll need your voice to ensure that crates are gone for good and not replaced with a new type of cage. If you haven’t already, please add your name to our petition calling for a full ban on farrowing crates across all of the UK. -

Amazon QR code scams Scammers are sending cards through the post which claim to be from Amazon and include dodgy QR codes. When scanned with your phone or tablet, these QR codes (the 2D barcode images made up of black and white squares) lead to dodgy websites that aim to steal your personal information. The fake postcards claim to offer freebies through Amazon's 'Early Reviewer Program', which actually ended in 2021. Find out what they look like so you can spot one if it's posted through your door. Watch out for these postcards -

I have no display for the smart meter they turned on remotely without informing me a couple of years ago. Nor do I have an app. 'I understand that you'd like a display to track your usage. Unfortunately, not all working smart meters of the first generation are currently eligible for exchange. However, we could switch your S1 meters to half-hourly readings, so at least you'd be able to see more accurate usage on the app. Would that be an option for you?' -

Not being high finance-savvy, I thought one could give £3,000 pa to each person, just read that's the total between all. It has to come from earned income and not from savings - though I don't know how they could know the difference? Maybe I am misreading but worth a read if anyone is as unaware as I am. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/hmrc-considering-rule-change-for-uk-households-who-gift-family-members-money/ar-AA1Lja6A?ocid=socialshare -

I've always understood that potatoes should be kept in a cool dark place, but not in the fridge. I only buy the small bags of baby/salad potatoes and always put them in a brown paper bag in the cupboard. Latest bag from the Co-op states ' Store in the fridge at 2-5c. to keep fresh for weeks longer'. I'm confused. -
