...scheme for buying and drinking Nescafe coffee.
First of all, I want to make it clear that this review is not about Nescafe coffee, although you have to want to drink it in order to take part in the reward scheme. Personally I think it is the best instant coffee around so it is an added bonus that they offer rewards as well!
So what is the pick-me-ups scheme and how does it work? Well it's quite easy really as every jar of coffee has a bean token ... ...which is downloadable from the Nescafe website (more about this later!) and it comes with one bean already attached as a bonus.
Once you have collected a number of tokens you can redeem these for a variety of rewards. These range from smallish rewards from only 6 beans to more substantial rewards worth up to 35 beans! The lowest rewards are either mugs, a free book or a free DVD rental from Blockbuster for only 6 beans. The highest reward is for ...

Nescafe pick-me-ups offers me free goodies for just collecting beans from the back of jars of coffee that I buy regularly.
As I have just recieved my latest copy of the pick me ups magazine with new offers I thought I had better update this review

There is one bean on the back of each 100g jar
There are two beans on the back of each 200g jar
As the terms and conditions say that bean tokens are issued in 1,2,3,or 5beans I expect that 3 and 5 beans are issued on larger jars of coffee but I don't buy these so I can't be certain.

Advantages: Free, apart from p+p, some nice gifts Disadvantages: Free items not always of great quality
...ups” is a scheme by Nescafe that has been running for well over a year now, where you can earn “rewards” or “gifts” by collecting bean tokens from the labels on jars of Nescafe coffee. It’s a great idea if you drink a lot of coffee and like Nescafe, if not you could always buy it for someone else and keep the tokens…or be cheeky and ask others who don’t want their tokens if you can have them!
Information about the scheme can be found on the Nescafe ... ...you post the sheet to Nescafe with a cheque for the p+p, and the gift is sent to you within 28 days.
~ What you can get
There is a range of goodies that you can get, depending on how many beans you collect:
* 6 beans + £1.50 p+p - Set of two Nescafe mugs
* 6 beans + no p+p - Rent one dvd free from Blockbuster
* 6 beans + £1.00 p+p - Choice of one book from the following three:
In a True Light by John Harvey
Paradise Fields by Katie Fforde

Quick review of Nescafe Pick-Me-Ups
My 100g jar of Nescafe original displays a 'Best before end 02 2009' date on it. I notice that my free Bean token is '..to be redeemed by 31.12.07'.
Perhaps time is running backwards, following the switch on of the LHC, - has anyone else noticed this? ...
