    On the last offer of this kind. I made a donation to the British Heart Foundation of 20p and this took me over the threshold and meant I got a voucher.

    Not sure if the same can be done on-line.

    This was recommended to me by the sales staff in store.

    If item is 49.99.... give 20p to charity in the tick to give

    I have just reserved a shaver £49.99 to collect tomorrow, can I give the 20p to charity when I collect tomorrow?
