    That sounds like a really good deal. Which ham did you buy? I think they do normal, honey roast and crumbed 400g of ham for £1.65 is a bargain.

    Hi i got the honey roast ham b/c ending 3167. hth

    O/T (what is the topic on this thread anyway?:rotfl:)

    I never seem to have much Ts secrets to share so I thought I'd share something else that might help some peeps.

    I recently got an e-mail from Amazon about their trade-in scheme. They have a promo on that gives you £5 credit if you trade in £10 or more on books.
    My Uni books were just gathering dust so I sent them off (they send you a label to print off for freepost too :T) and got my e-mail today to say they are giving me £32 for my 4 books and an additional credit of £5. I don't "do" e-bay so it was a good deal for me.

    Hope it helps someone :D

    have seen link so all OK .

    cracking toast mharzuk ,well done on the trade in and the share .
    We're your Uni books expensive to buy in the first place and did Amazon give you any idea what you might receive prior to you sending them off .

    I'm just a little sceptical about some of these trade in schemes as they give you very little , I punched in some b/c's off some cd's into Musicmagpie or similar and they were very cheeky with their ' offer '
    Good luck to anyone sending their books in

    just bought 3 of the bbq chicken pizza and other "pizza deals and mr birds eye's food" but the sel £2 and scanned at £2 ... 3 for £5 used 3 price flops =50p but on thinking someone said earlier they compared at T £1.76 and A £1...so maybe they could be an added extra bonus of getting £3 back on jtd...so if it works they pay us £2.50 to eat them .... hth

    you input the ISBN of the book and they give you a value for it before you commit to the trade.

    The trade is actually through a third party, but its all kosher, nothing sneaky in the TC.

    the rates they offer are the highest i have seen by far (for academic books). i did do a comparison of their rates with other sites.

    thank you. i thought this was the case but saw a post earlier when someone suggested it. must get around to actually trying some of the B&J icecream tonight before i hit them once more for 2 x deal at the weekend.

    although my sis has kindly offered to take any of the garlic bread and icecream off my hands if i dont like them/dont have room for them lol

    and obviously the quote is given based on the assumption that the book is in the condition you described it to be. If they subsequently receive it with pages missing, stains all over, they may deduct money from the valuation :)

    Thanks, I'll give that a go. I only buy one very rarely as they are so expensive, but to be fair I've not drunk anywhere near as much over the past dew weeks as I usually do so thought I'd splash out a bit. Besides Tesco in effect bought it for me due to their mispriced champers! :)

    Here is what they say about it:

    The Gaelic word from which the name Dalwhinnie comes is Dali-coinneeamh, which translates as "meeting place". The highest distillery in Scotland was founded on these bleak, wind-swept central Highland pastures in 1898.

    The classic Highland malt, Dalwhinnie ages slowly to develop a remarkable character. Fifteen years of gentle ageing make it a smooth, subtle malt without a trace of harshness. Heart-warming yet also mellow and honeyed, its combination of delicacy and depth sets it apart.



    It is dear, but very worth it as a treat!:beer:
