How to save extra cash this Christmas without depriving yourself of anything

Brought to you by Bank of Ireland.

Who wants to give stuff up around Christmas?

Not us. One of the best things about Christmas is treating ourselves. Getting a few little goodies for yours truly, going on nights out with work friends, school friends, college friends, family, the list goes on. You always have some of the best nights out around Christmas because you get the old gangs together, you see people you haven't seen in ages, you meet friends' new partners. So you have to be looking your best, of course. The only thing about Christmas is that you always have to be super conscious of how much money you're spending. It's hard enough to spread your December spend between present shopping for friends and family. When you factor yourself in, you start stressing at every euro that's spent, and it's almost not worth it. Almost. However, we have found a great way to make cashback on loads of the money you spend on Christmas shopping and nights out. Bank of Ireland has teamed up with Visa to help all of us out during these high-spending months. Bank of Ireland Visa Debit cardholders can avail of these cashback rewards by signing up to their Live Life Rewards. Stores and services that have jumped on board include Just Eat, Boots, mytaxi, Currys PC World and many more. For example, if you're looking for some new makeup, you can earn €5 cashback when you spend €50 or more at Boots. Your bank account will love you when those little rewards pop back in after your pre-night out shopping trip. When you go out and have a few festive drinks, you don't have to feel guilty about hailing a taxi because the Live Life Rewards programme will also earn you cashback on your mytaxi trip. Not bad at all. Now you can properly enjoy your shopping and nights out, knowing you'll be getting a little treat back into your account within the week. Brought to you by Bank of Ireland. Simply register your Bank of Ireland Visa Debit card for Live Life Rewards, check out the weekly offers, including deals on lots of winter essentials, and shop using your card. Then sit back and wait for the Christmas cash to be paid into your account, typically within five business days. It's so easy. Register now.
