Halfords eGift Cards from Zeek?
Does anybody have any experience with them. At Zeek it says: It doesn't surprise me that "the brand info below" doesn't say anything "on how to redeem", but at least it's obvious that it's some code, not a plastic card. Halfords' website says: This implies that the only way of using their gift cards/vouchers is in-store. I…

Tipping Delivery Drivers
Over the coming months, I'll be having some heavy items (white goods etc) delivered to a third floor flat with no lift. I know some retailers (ao.com for example) ask how high up you are and whether there's a lift when you place the order, so at least they'll be aware of having to carry items up three floors. Is it usual…

Does John Lewis ever do discount days or haggle?
I've seen an item in the home furniture range by John Lewis that I really love. But it's a bit out of my price range.

Boots 3 for 2
I bought a gift in boots yesterday, was told at checkout it was part of the 3 for 2 offer but had tired kids with me and shop was heaving so I didn’t go and get the other 2 items. If I go back with my receipt will they allow me to get the other 2 items and only pay for 1?
