THIS WEEK'S TOP DEALS

We only share deals and special offers on the site which we think are really good value. Click the titles or links for more information.


1. BA Amex: boosted welcome offer

There's a brand new offer from American Express for the British Airways Premium Plus card that doubles the welcome Avios from 25,000 to 50,000. That can be used for flights or swapped for Nectar points - giving you a profit after the fee of £113. And you can get this even if you already have an Amex card. But you have to apply via special link.


2. Great British Rail Sale: up to 50% off train tickets

Until Monday, you can get advance train tickets for up to 50% off in the Great British Rail Sale. Get them here.

4. Regular Saver: 6% Christmas Savers

Excuse the C-word in January, but both Yorkshire Building Society and Furness Building Society have launched 6% Christmas Regular Savers to save up to £500 per month by next Christmas.

Morrisons is offering 5p off per litre of fuel until Sunday, plus you can stack this with Jam Doughnut cashback to save a fiver on full tank.

If you start saving for Christmas early with an Asda Christmas Saver Card, you can get £2 in your Asda Rewards cashpot, with another £1 (at least) coming in November. You have to top it up with at least £50 and you have to be quick as it ends on Sunday.
