    Ive used mine in Matalan and Iceland in the last 6 weeks with no problems (both vouchers had Woolies logo on).
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    I managed to use mine in a dozen stores (though mainly Boots!) without a problem - not argos though!! To be honest it's never even crossed my mind that woolies still being on there was a problem considering it only finished last year!?

    I get grief from "Iceland" with these LTS vouchers rec'd from Royal Mail misdelivery surveys saying about the style, even though in date. (£5 & £1)

    It's embarrassing when you go in and they make a fuss!!!

    I have never had problems using these in Iceland once the cashier learns how to put them through the till!
    In fact, there was a big sign up in my Iceland this week saying they take Love2Shop vouchers!!

    There are two different types of Love2Shop vouchers. Coroprate and consumer. Argos will ONLY take vouchers which display the argos logo on the front, as the type that do not have the logo are corporate vouchers.

    If your vouchers do not have an argos logo on them they cannot be spent there unfortunately, and they cannot be exchanged for ones with the argos logo. (found this out when I rung up love2shop)

    I used mine in argos, didnt mention argos on the voucher, i only new they accepted them from the LTS website..... woman on the till didnt bat an eyelid....
  • I think the best option would be to find a store such as whsmiths that sells gift vouchers for other stores and maybe buy some argos specific vouchers from the gift card area.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Good luck

    halfords wont take them either if they have the woolworths logo on .
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
    Our thoughts are ever with you,Though you have passed away.And those who loved you dearly,
    Are thinking of you today.

    The general rule these days is that Argos will only take them with their logo on, they have posters up in my local store behind the counter.

  • My local argos in stockport would only accept the £1 and £5 vouchers (with the woolworth logo on), but not the £10 - told me this was the rule , the manager looked this up on some correspondance he had
