sami i bought tesco vouchers last year from ebay and used them when we went to blackpool! where are the vouchers for as i may know someone who would use them in exchange through paypal:D

i have 2 engagement rings and 2 wedding rings lol!!! the first OH bought by working every hour god sent to pay for it and he was only 16! we got married and tried to keep everything low budget and bought cheap rings. they didnt fit after i had abi so he bought me another engagement ring for my birthday and then we had new wedding rings made the way we wanted, mine fits into my engagment ring. i have the other 2 hidden away and they will be kept for when the girls are older.
am not too sure how much our wedding cost as everyone helped out??

Will you leave room for having more kids???

My engagement ring is the exact one I wanted and should have been £350 but the jewelers went into liquidation and we got it for £64 !!!!
Our wedding rings on the other hand cost more than my sit down meal for the wedding ! oops But we felt that they were more important as they were our permenant reminder of the wedding and each other, I saved for a long time to get them, and now OH cant wear his till we get it made a bit bigger, so I bought him a chain last year and he wears it round his neck instead

is it 'safe'?
do you list them as £10 voucher worth £40?
does the buyer tell you what deal they want and then you send them the end voucher?
how much do they go for?
and lastly should I put them on as one big batch or seperate into several smaller ones?

thank for any info

i think we paid around £70 for £150/£200 worth of vouchers. we just bought and paid for them and took them to blackpool. that way the kids got to go on everything and had a great holiday and it saved us a fortune!!

Mrs_Moc

selling the vouchers unchanged will usually sell at auction for just over double their original value or just under half of their value when x 4.

Changing them into annual merlin passes can go for up to £100, though they are worth £150, so 2/3rds there. Dont take actual photos of changed vouchers though, as tesco dont like them being sold on ebay and can trace the serial numbers.

I usually change mine into merlin passes or restaurant vouchers can go really well. They do sell well though unchanged too.

caz they're still in the £5ish state I've got £260ish (once x4) and expecting another £60 worth once the next lot arrive (if they arrive soon enough?! :eek:)

OOh, Yes!
