    Does anyone know when or if Asda gift cards expire? I bought one for my brother about 1.5 years ago and he keeps forgetting to use it!

    I'm going to point out that Jane Norman (paper) vouchers expire a year after they are bought. Although if you buy something for £15 using £20 of vouchers, they give you a £5 voucher back expiring a year later after that date. I'm really annoyed at the minute as I can't find anything good in the sales that is my size! I found that one top for £15, still got another £15 to spend!
  • This is an old thread, but I have just had the same experience in Whsmiths, as I was unaware of the expiry date. I have emailed Whsmiths to ask why their online gift vouchers appear to have a different policy with no expiry date. It does appear that Whsmiths are making money out of forgotten vouchers! Easy money for them!
