    Just about to buy some resteraunt.com certificates and it wants a zip code for my billing address, as im in the UK i dont have one so will this not afect the verification of my card??


    From the tips from the front page of this thread....

    Tip: to register for this site and it's coupons just use your own address, Nevada for the state and 89109 for the zip code. It doesn't have to match your credit card.

    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    The instant refunding won me over to be honest. You can get the Groupon, but if it's not used by a certain time, you get a refund. Good for changing plans and stuff, a thing we do more often than we probably should.
    What are "plans"? :eek:

    Any been in Jan?

    My wife wants to go somewhere for her birthday (4th Jan).

    What's LV like at the start of the year?
    I realise it's not as hot as midsummer (which might be a good thing). But I'm guessing Nevada never gets that cold in the day?

    Also she likes to swim, I see that all the hotels close their pools from something like Oct to April, but are there any with indoor pools where you can swim (ie, that are not just full of people standing around drinking getting in the way?).

    Thanks for any info.

    After using Nevada and 89109 for years with my credit card, the Nationwide eventually called last year and queried the transaction (4 weeks after it happened .......... ) as it didn't match the billing address. Since then I've always used Paypal, apart from once when I forgot and it was never queried.
