    Morning everyone, last week i bought an indoor arial for £14.65 from tesco, paid with £14.50 moc's - it was useless so took it back, because i had used coupons they issued me with a 'gift card' to the value of £14.65.
    So..... if i now buy a product to the value of £30, using my gift card and £14.50 in moc's it will cost me 85p
    so if i take this item back, they will give me a gift card for roughly £30.......
    i then buy a product for £45 using my £30 gift card and £14.50 in moc's.......
    See where i'm going here ?
    will i eventually get a Plasma TV and surround sound system ?

    Ooh, Whitby's lovely! Went there last year during a short break to Yorkshire, and Mister C J bought me some beautiful Whitby jet earrings, then we sat in the sunshine on one of the piers and scoffed fish and chips from The Penguin fish bar and watched some tall ships sail in. Brill.

    (EDIT: Re TheCabbage) Won't they smell a rat with you returning stuff all the time?



    Yes, multiple returners get noticed (except just after Christmas when you can blend in with the queues). The suggestion made by TheCabbage is not a good idea at all, it's a sure fire way towards a ban.

    And not all stores or CS staff are happy to refund couponed receipts with gift cards anyway. Even if they were, I can tell you (TheCabbage) they would remember you and your couponed receipt next time. Most customers' receipts don't look like that!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
