KGB £5 for £150 holiday deal?!

Hi,

Yesterday I signed up for the £1 Cineworld cinema ticket -first time used the KGB website.

Today I received an email from them saying they are now offering a £150 holiday cheque for £5! Has anyone ever done this before with KGB? Is it any good? Is this too good to be true?

    Looks legit to me, although this will be a discount from a brochure holiday, and you may or may not be able to obtain the holiday this much cheaper by booking online anyway.
    Probably worth it if you are booking a brochure holiday anyway ie holiday villages etc.
    Everyone who thanks me when ive helped will get a 5% share when I win this weeks Euromillions......:p

    It seems to me to be like those £150 vouchers you get you know the ones where you have to pay brochure price. you have to book 3 weeks in advance but through a special company. I for one will leave it but someone else may wish to have a go.]]

    Useful i think if you pay brochure price for stuff but t+cs say no other operator discounts so no child places etc no x amount off per person for booking online.

    Some may find this v useful but it's not for me.

    Good Luck and Happy Holidays,

    You are more than likely able to save MORE than £150 by avoiding brochure prices... i.e. comparing, haggling, booking online etc. So personally I would avoid this offer due to its limitations and inflexibilities. Its a good spot and worth asking about but I wouldn't say it offers the value for money first thought.
