Money off vouchers

Hi, just thought i'd float an idea how about a local voucher exchange pot in a local shop or post office.
I get tons of vouchers for stuff i'm never going to buy and it seems a shame to bin them so...
put all your unwanted vouchers in the pot and grab a few you do need. Due to the low actual value of these vouchers it would be pointless doing this thru the post so spread a little moneysavingness locally.
There is a less than altruistic slant to this also, i know some vouchers are named but you can get round this by paying cash, also i'm sure that if the issuer notices that "you" use the voucher that they'll consider you for more.
Sorry bit long winded but hell, i think it's a good idea, what does anyone else think?

Don't know if you know this but some Asda and Tesco stores actually take vouchers for stuff that you don't buy... so you don't have to bin them! ;D
