If you’ve been consuming your fair share of Netflix over these past couple of months, then you’ll be pleased to know you can now get paid to.
There really couldn’t be many easier ways to earn yourself £300.
Whether you’ve been furloughed, working from home, or just found yourself with a little more time on your hands to spend inside your four walls than you’re usually used to, the majority of us have become well-aquatinted with Netflix series’ and films during lockdown amid the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and now you can put those key skills to good use, as one company is on the lookout for an official Loungewear Tester.
A Loungewear Tester that allows you to “Netflix-and-chill” whilst your at it, that is.
Loungewear brand Pour Moi is looking for dedicated applicants to help try out their joggers, pyjamas and hoodies to make sure they’re up to scratch as autumn weather sets in.

According to the job description, you’ll need to complete a series of ‘tasks’ in the loungewear.
These tasks include, but aren’t limited to, watching three episodes of your favourite TV show, enjoying a wine or hot chocolate on the sofa, making a cup of tea, and scrolling through social media on your phone for a minimum of 10 minutes.

All you’ll have to do then is give a comprehensive review of the loungewear garments you’ve tested.
You’ll be asked to provide details on how comfortable you found the pieces and whether or not you think any improvements could be made to them, and this feedback will then be fed through to Pour Moi’s design team so they can apply it to future garments.

Succesful applicants will be required to commit to 10 hours of loungewear wearing and completing the above tasks over a month period.

Pour Moi will then pay £300 for completing the tasks and for filling out a short summary questionnaire.

“With winter approaching, we know that our next season of loungewear is going to be incredibly in demand so we need to make sure it’s up to the task. This new role is really important to us as it will provide valuable feedback on our product and any improvements which could be made
“We’re excited to find the best person for the role so we can get started.”
Fancy sticking an application in then?

Stockport County’s Christmas dinner in a cup returns for 2025 as part of new festive food range
Danny Jones
We can’t believe it’s rolled around again already, but with the festive period well underway and the big day just a few weeks away, Stockport County have brought back their viral ‘Xmas dinner in a cup’for 2025.
Better still, the County Courtyard has seen some new Christmas specials added to its food menu, too.
The local football club are absolutely flying in League One at the moment, having spent plenty of time at the top of the table already and still well and truly contesting those promotion/play-off spots.
If you’re a Stopfordian, that’s plenty of cause for celebration right there, but with the Christmas dinner in a cup also up for grabs once more, the holiday season literally couldn’t taste any better right now.
For those who’ve never seen it before, it’s exactly what it says on the tin – well, cup: a little Sunday dinner in a County-branded takeaway coffee cup, complete with a healthy pour of gravy and pretty much all the trimmings you could hope for.
Yes, including sprouts, because all of you who still don’t touch them need to grow up already.
Currently priced at just £4.50, not only does it contain virtually all the major food groups (barring the customary matchday pints, of course), it might just be one of the healthiest and best value-for-money bits of footy scran around – certainly in Greater Manchester, anyway.
But, as mentioned, that’s not all this year; Stockport are also serving up the new festive hot dog and even a ‘leftover Christmas curry’ in a bowl, which might even be more warming on a cold night at Edgeley Park than the Xmas dinner in a cup or clinging onto a flask of Bovril.
Anyone else craving that curry with a cheeky bit of bubble and squeak now?
It’s also worth noting that you’ll only be able to get one of those on Boxing Day, by the way, when the Hatters host Lincoln City in the league.
As for the rest of it, County fans can get their hands on this seasonal scran for the first time this year at the weekend when Dave Challinor’s side take on Barnsley at 12:30pm, and two of the three specials will then be served at home every game over the holiday period.
Speaking of random Christmas food creations, there’s another limited-time-only and potentially divisive example that we’ll also be sampling this December…
Aldi has launched the world’s first lickable pigs in blankets wrapping paper… for some reason
Emily Sergeant
Aldi has launched its latest Christmas creation, and this one’s arguably wackier than anything else it’s brought out before.
There’s absolutely no denying that pigs in blankets are a staple of festive feasting, with millions of the little delicacies consumed throughout the UK each Christmas, but have you ever wished you could turn the taste of those pigs in blankets into a lickable wrapping paper to wrap all this year’s gifts in? Yeah probably not… Aldi‘s made it though.
It’s anticipated that more than 561 million pigs in blankets are going to be eaten over the festive period, new research has found, which is an average of 10 per person.
But if you just can’t bare to leave the taste of pigs in blankets behind, Aldi’s new wrapping paper is set to give shoppers a fun and tasty twist when it comes to gift-giving.
The limited-edition wrapping paper is inspired by Aldi’s very-own range of pigs in blankets, and is described as capturing the smoky, savoury flavour and smell of the festive treat, with stickers that peel back to reveal a truly unique ‘lickable’ experience.

Not only does the novelty wrapping paper taste and smells like pigs in blankets, it also looks the part on presents too with its pastel pink design, festive holly, and snowflake patterns.
“Pigs in Blankets are a highlight of the festive season… so we wanted to create something special to celebrate the Christmas classic,” commented Julie Ashfield, who is the Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, as the new creation launches.
“This unique, lickable wrapping paper is the perfect way to spread extra joy on Christmas Day.”
Want to get your hands on it then? Unfortunately, it won’t be as simple as popping to your nearest Aldi store and picking up a roll, as with a creation as unique as this, there’s only going to be limited stock and a special shopper competition to win it.
To be in with a chance of winning, you simply need to email [email protected] with your full name before the deadline at 11:59pm on 1 December.
