    Does anyone need them for their school? I'll collect them but haven't a school to send them to? Does the store usually have a local school to contribute towards? It seems a shame to waste them. I'll send them to anyone that wants them!!

    its basically for every tenner you spend you get a voucher, the cashier is supposed to offer them tu if you say no they just arent handed out nothing is done with them
  • If anyone has any vouchers that they don't want I would be very grateful for any spare.

    Our local school is very small so is unlikely to manage a computer without lots of help


    Please please please oh kind people
    I want to...........?

    My daughter at 14 considers herself too old to hand these in to the school, so I usually save them up and give them to a child in the check out queue who will be more than happy to hand them into school. :)

    Slightly OT, but a Guardian article about the Tesco Computer's for School's deal:

    i don't shop in tescos often but in recent promotions i've noticed a box for collecting unwanted vouchers, saying they'll be distributed amongst local schools. lots of people also sell them on ebay believe it or not! from what i've gathered some schools run competitions for who can bring in the most vouchers, doesn't sound very nice :-( so people sell big wads of vouchers towards the end of the promotion.
