    Thanks! There always seems to be people who can get a debit card to work, but my Maestro one doesn't :confused: What did you choose as card type? Will have another go - thank you.

    I am an idiot. I thought the bit to enter the code would be on the next page when paying, I clicked it and it went through and it can't be cancelled.:o

    Still at least it will go through on Quidco but note to self, don't buy things online when you are tired.:rolleyes:

    I posted this on the discount board last week:


    icon1.gifPrice Minister (Amazon wannabe) £5 off any spend + free delivery!
    I have just stumbled upon this site by chance when looking for an old CD. I found the CD for around £5 and then a £5 voucher code!:j

    Means I pay pennies for a CD that on Amazon and HMV is closer to £15! Worth a look- they seem to be a cross between ebay and Amazon- there seem to be quite a few companies selling stock (also worth looking direct just to see if your getting the best deal) but also far more organised then ebay. Worth a look anyway, the link is: http://www.priceminister.co.uk

    The discount is for £5 off any spend and the code is AFFWELCOME5 which appears on the home page, it doesn't say when it expires so cannot say when it all ends but I used it, it works and I can recommend it!
