    I certainly wouldn't try to use the vouchers, but I would open any mail that comes to my house not actually addressed to me.
  • sorry to say but this would be classed as theft by opportunism. however......if I found money is the street and didnt know who is belonged to then I would keep it (even though this is still classed as the same kind of theft)

    Oh dear, under what juristiction of the kangeroo court sessionals does this theft by opportunism come then.

    Quick Freddies, place cloth in gob to keep it shut. This could spill over and cause awful friction in the parish.

    Bu99er, done it now!
  • Ah, thank God. I've found who lost their vouchers

    I've never been asked to show my Club Card when using vouchers.

    Then, you won't get any points on that transaction.
    I used to work for Tesco - now retired - speciality Clubcard

    Maybe they were my vouchers :) I just used that new clubcard site that tells you about vouchers you have missed and I had £54 on there :)

    Spent them now tho!

    Just to point out that every time I have used my vouchers in store I have had to have had my clubcard swiped to validate them. One time the lady stopped me and asked for the clubcard before paying because the till refused to take it.

    I know this because my credit card is my clubcard so I only ever use it at the end when I pay.

    Oh and to your original question - yes it is dishonest - but you already knew that didn't you ;)

    I've opened mail for the previous tenants before - it's really easy to do if you're in a hurry as you generally expect all mail that comes to your home to be for you, particularly when you've lived somewhere for a good while!

    I couldn't use someone else's vouchers - they've not just popped their details into a website and sent off for a freebie - they've had to spend real money to get those clubcard points. I probably couldn't be bothered to call Tesco to explain the owner no longer lives in my property, but I would just seal up the letter and put it back in the post box.
