    I've used these vouchers a fair bit when they were x4 previously. We've had a couple of designer watches and I love the Swarovski jewellery. I've never had a problem using the vouchers, every branch I've been in has been happy to accept them.

    I got £200s worth in the post today.

    I love the Swarovski things, too! Anyone looking for a small-spend treat should check out the Swarovski Crystal Pens -- writing pens with loads of sparkly crystals in the top. They are 25 pounds, you could cash in 5 quid worth of vouchers and add 5 in cash, or cash in 7.50 worth of vouchers, which would give you 30 to spend, in which case you could buy the pen and a pot of jewelry cleaner at 5 pounds. Refills for the pen are a pound in a swarovski shop and cheaper if you hunt around online.

    we did this last year and I got a new watch and my sis some earrings,we swapped the clubcard vouchers for tokens and then took the tokens in and paid for the items with them.you do not get change but you can put money towards them so work out the best way to get the most out of your vouchers.we paid £5 towards my sisters earring instead of wasting a £10 goldsmiths token and then put the leftover token towards something else later on.I have done the same this year as I fancy a new necklace.I give the OH the tokens and he goes and chooses something for my birthday/christmas.

    I have used vouchers twice in our local Goldsmiths and both times sales staff have been brilliant. Year before last got DH a watch for Xmas priced at over £200, last year got myself a nice watch and a Xmas pressy for a friend.

    Yes, you can probably get them cheaper elsewhere, but then you have to use real money!!

    I have exchanged Club Card vouchers online both times and have received them pretty soon after.

    Here's the one I got for 25 pounds; it came in a little velvet pouch and would make a lovely gift. Just search for Swarovski Pen on the Goldsmith's site for all the shades. Some have a usb thumb drive in them for 55 quid.

    That is what I did over the summer, as they sent vouchers of different value. As in, if I ordered 45 pounds worth, they might send two for 20 and a 5 or something like that. The one I got this week, now that they are 4X the value, they just sent one voucher for 60. It was a good thing the item I wanted was 61, as there would've been no way to save a voucher back for later. Don't know if this is something different Tesco is doing to make you use it or lose it.

    Also, seems like it took less than a week for them to arrive.
