    Thanks for the heads up, does anyone know if they record your details - any way I can make 5 separate donations and receive 5 vouchers? Although the reality is you have to spend the voucher in the month detailed on the voucher (not of your choice) on a min spend of £35 (not food) so a whole bunch of vouchers does mean I'd have to spend a whole bunch to use them!!!

    From the Oxfam Clothes Exchange Terms and Conditions

    You'll be given a £5 voucher for every clothing donation you make to Oxfam which contains at least one item of M&S-labelled clothing, including shoes, handbags, belts, hats and scarves.

    Only one voucher can be used for each transaction of £35 (€50) or
    more.

    One voucher only per transaction.

    The Oxfam scheme has been going for ages. Be aware that if you take something in, they give you a voucher which expires at the end of that month, so not a good plan to take things in at the end of the month. They also give you one voucher per donation, even if the donation contains several M&S items so if you want several vouchers, take the stuff in relays.
  • Where does it say you have to use the voucher by the end of the month? have had a good look but i can't find anything, it would be handy if it lasted a bit longer i.e for christmas.
    Thanks

    The Oxfam ones were only valid for a month.
  • I knew the ongoing oxfam ones were but this is a bit different as it's for one day only, there don't seem to be any t&c's so i suppose we'll have to wait until wednesday and see if it is the same.

    It's on the voucher from Oxfam. It's also stated on the "terms & conditions" link on the M&S website page in the first post. Seek (a little) and ye shall find!
