You can also get a \u00a35 main course from Pizza Express each week, with offers from other major brands like Halfords and WHSmith rotating on the app.<\/p>\n<p>In our opinion, the access you&#8217;ll get to O2 Priority is a strong reason for choosing it over some other Pay As You Go networks. The potential savings you&#8217;ll get from O2 Priority may even pay for your phone bill (e.g. taking advantage of a free Caff\u00e8 Nero each week would already save you close to \u00a310 per month).<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Big_Bundles\">Big Bundles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-21517\" src=\"https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/O2-Big-Bundles-2018-300x226.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/O2-Big-Bundles-2018-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/O2-Big-Bundles-2018-40x30.jpg 40w, https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/O2-Big-Bundles-2018-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/O2-Big-Bundles-2018.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>If you&#8217;re a smartphone owner or regular mobile user, you might find yourself better off buying an <a href=\"https:\/\/kenstechtips.com\/index.php\/o2-big-bundles-pay-as-you-go\">O2 Big Bundle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On Classic Pay As You Go, your \u00a310 of credit will convert to 333 minutes, 500 texts or 1GB of data (in reality, it will probably be some combination of the three things).<\/p>\n<p>With Big Bundles, you&#8217;ll instead convert a certain amount of credit into a 30-day allowance. As you&#8217;re buying your airtime in bulk, you&#8217;ll get much larger allowances for the same amount of money. For instance, you can get unlimited minutes, unlimited texts and 3GB of data for a \u00a310 top-up. The disadvantage of choosing a Big Bundle over Classic Pay As You Go is that unused allowances will expire at the end of your 30-day bundle.<\/p>\n<p>At present, O2 offers a choice of the following
