- AMAZON’S bonus £10 top-up credit promotion is back until June 30. First-time users of the service, whereby you add credit to your account at a PayPoint or ePay terminal in a supermarket, corner shop or other business, get the bonus when adding £40 or more. The bonus credit can be spent on products sold and despatched by Amazon only, not third-party sellers. Find out more by going to www.amazon.co.uk and clicking on ‘gift cards and top-up’ or using the quick link https://tinyurl.com/ybbnvs5m. The site will tell you your nearest participating location. The bonus credit must be used by 11.59pm on July 31. Until 11.59pm on April 30, first-time users of the Amazon Assistant web-browser extension also get £5 off a £25 spend. You'll find details of that offer on the homepage too.

- Children fly for free with British Airways on domestic flights to or from London Heathrow between June 1 and November 5. You must book by May 13. One or two children under 12 travel free per paying accompanying adult. George Best Belfast City Airport is eligible, as are airports in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Leeds and Newcastle upon Tyne. Book at www.britishairways.com. Read the full terms and condtions at https://tinyurl.com/ybk75r9k.

- KFC's free-to-join Colonel's Club has refreshed its special offers until May 20. Members can get £3 off a 10-piece Bargain Bucket, a Mighty Bucket For One meal for £4.50 or three pieces of original recipe chicken for £3. When you first sign up you get enough bonus points for a free side order as well (such as fries, two hot wings, or a hot or cold drink). Read more at https://order.kfc.co.uk or download the smartphone app from Google Play or the Apple App Store.

- Now TV has a decent offer on at the moment. You get 50 per cent off the movies package (£4.99 instead of £9.99) and an even bigger discount on the entertainment package (£3.99 instead of £7.99). Both deals are for one month. Find them at https://www.nowtv.com/promo/return. Both offers are open to new and existing customers. After the month is over, unless you cancel you'll automatically be billed at the standard rate.

- Debenhams Beauty Club members also get £10 worth of bonus points when spending £50 or more on beauty and fragrance. Usually you'd have to spend more than £300 to earn so many points. The site www.debenhams.com says terms and conditions apply but does not display these anywhere obvious.
