    we have used vouchers to pay for a hotel in liverpool last year, it was a best western. they basically stuck us in very very poor rooms( apparently just decorated etc) but was blatantly a very poor and even insecure and dangerous room. we complained and the next night got moved into a room which was of the standard we expected. i fully believe they had made these 2 shoddy rooms for clubcard customers. we later last year tried too book a room at the hilton in southampton i think it was but they had no rooms available, again booking well in advance. hense now hotels are something i just dont use my vouchers for anymore.
    £18 for my old mobile.
    new proper meal planning to cut spending.
    £26 in coppers taken to bank.
    £30 under grocery budget last 2 weeks.
    £22.98 cashback quidco
    £34.02 music magpie

    I was going to book a Haven holiday for the summer gone, but there was no availability in the school summer holidays at any of their sites. The lady on the phone said they have very limited availability in school holidays for Tesco vouchers.

    Looked on Cosmos and found a holiday but also priced it up booking everything independently. The DIY price was cheaper than the balance I would have to pay if I used my Tesco vouchers with Cosmos!

    Ended up keeping the vouchers then doubled them up in the exchange and got a "free" laptop instead :D
    Here I go again on my own....

    I was stupid enough to change up £80 of my CC vouchers for Hilton ones - phoned up to book and all they could offer me was a Hotel for £220 per might - minium 2 night stay, so even with the vouchers would leave me £260 out of pocket!

    I've got to either use these in the next month or lose them... does anyone know if I can convert them back to CC vouchers ???
