    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Their policy is - if you havent bought the item they will accept 1 voucher. Very occasionally the cashier will take a couple but if the supervisors get called over they will make sure only 1 is accepted (unless of course you have bought the item). HTH

    Why do they accept it at all, if you haven't bought the book? I thought that you must buy it to use the token (p. 3 in T&C on the tokens), and the fact that they accept it without buying books is only because they are careless.

    Thank you to everyone on this thread who nominated me for post of the month, I didn't win but then I haven't lost out because I have been able to share an excellent freebie find with all of you.

    I look forward to sharing my next freebie discovery with you shortly = Welshy xx
    I thought the post of month was done on votes but it didn't seem to be this time.....:confused:
    Welshy have you found another good freebie then?:o

    Received two cylindrical parcels - pens, rubbers, pencils, 2 mugs, posters, plus a big bundle of £1 off vouchers.

    Will send the stationery items to an orphanage that I am fundraiser for and will donate vouchers to local adult literacy centre.

    A great Freebie find!
