in It's gone, but was it any good?
Choice of lots of hardbacks, I saw Strictly Come Dancing, Justin Lee Collins, Delia's Christmas etc. Cheapest was £9.99 so not a bad deal if you were going to buy them anyway as pressies...:):T

    I missed the £5 peter kay deal which I take it that is in it, might be worth taking a look. Is the card no expiry or minimum spend and can be spent on everything but lottery/vouchers etc. Also could you use the 20% or £5 off voucher?

    Hi

    Not sure if you are limited to what you can spend the gift card on but it is only valid until 31st January 2010.

    Might be better for you , if your 2 books are each over £10, or you only want one book, to use the £5 off vouchers posted here. On 2 books you still save £10, but it's cash and you can spend it how and when you like.:D.

    It's only a game

    Not sure about using the £5 off voucher as the one I had expired on 25th, but I bought 2 books today and used the 20% voucher. Both books marked at £12.99, but one went through as £9.49. Along with a newspaper, I ended up paying £18 something, and got a £10 gift card, so grand total of £8 for both books instead of £30+ RRP!!!

    This is complicated
    so you can use 20% and gift card = £6 for two £10 books
    you can't use 2 £5 vouchers and 20% off or gift card = £5 per £10 book
    and from the terms on the £5 voucher you can't use 1, buy 2 books and get the gift card?

    Hello,

    I have done this offer today - just come on to post it, so thanks to OP and everyone who are quicker than me :)

    I also used the £5 off any book over £10 voucher (from their website) AND the 20% off everything (re-useable card) Plus got the £10 giftvoucher.

    All in all I paid £24 for 3x Hardback books and got the giftvoucher which will be a Christmas present for Father in Law. (The 3rd hardback book wasnt in the offer, but was reduced).

    All Childrens books are also 3 for 2 - in a seperate transaction I bought 3 Young Bond paperbacks, got cheapest for free (saving £6.99) and used the £5 off Kids books voucher (from their website) plus the 20% off everything re-useable card again, so got them all for £9.58.

    Hi all. Excuse me for being slow on the uptake :confused: but I went into WHS today but didn't see anything about £10 card back wyb 2 hardback books - has this been advertised elsewhere?
    So if I buy 2 hardbacks I can use the £5 off valid til 1/11 and cashier will give me £10 gift card? Is that right???!!!
