    You can pay a smaller amount than the value of the gift voucher. When your receipt prints out so does a new credit note for the remaining amount...also valid for 1 year

    Thanks aau....so does that mean I can extend the life of the voucher that prints out as the change...or is that still only valid for the year of the original credit note?

    Presumably it only goes away once it's tracked into your account because I claimed 3 accounts on 1 device one after the other

    That seems to be what is happening - maybe it has been doing it for a while but I have not noticed as I normally upload receipts for all family at the same time? Obviously if i were only uploading my own receipts I wouldn't have noticed anyway :D.

    Can I ask for some people's ideas on how much a week excluding rent, would be reasonable for someone staying in Vancouver, Canada for couple of months. :o

    It's really difficult to judge when it's not actually a holiday. But while there will want to take advantage of nice things to do.

    Thankfully rent includes utilities etc, so that's one less concern. :cool:

    Hope you all had a Happy Easter. :A

    I was driving on the motorways for much of it. Easter Sunday M25 was a car park around 11am. :eek:

    But was good to see all the family at some point over the weekend...

    Quick question to all the m&s experts please....

    I've got a credit voucher back as I returned some clothing....its for £50 ish .....I'm never going to be able to spend that amount in one go...do they give you a replacement voucher if you spend a lesser amount or not give change......its valid for a year

    It does NOT extend the date of the credit note. So if you have a £50 credit note dated 1 Sept 2017 and you spend £1. You will get a 'fresh' credit note for £49 but it will be dated 1 Sept 2017.


    However if you are getting close to an expiry date you make a single purchase for the full amount and if the item isn't suitable and you need to return it....you get a new credit note with an expiry date 1 year from the date of the return
    The end is nigh

    Thanks simone....

    I think I was more concerned that I would lose the value of the voucher if I could not spend it all in one go...It's good to know I can spend it in dribs and drabs until the year is up.

    Hope you all had a good Easter despite the weather.

    Noticed the Covent Garden Soup Vouchers have finished.

    Mum is back in Hospital, as she can't eat, drink or take any of her medication and seemed to be in and out of consciousness when the paramedic came yesterday.
    They have her on a drip which should help to rehydrate her, but don't yet know what the problem is.
    Hope they can find out and do something to help.
    I have her sister, my 90 year old aunt (lives 40 miles away and can no longer drive) crying on the phone to me and asking if she is going to be OK, but I don't have the answers.


    still available here :)http://newcoventgardensoup.com/what-were-up-to/


    Sorry to hear about your Mum (((xx))
