    The wife just went to Boots , bought something for £7.95 and asked if she could use her points worth £3.88 and pay cash for the rest. She was told no , you have to buy something worth £3.88 with your points.

    That can't be right can it ?

    That is right-you either pay with points or cash -cannot combine them.

    Unfortunately yes you have to have the full amount of points to pay, you can't do half and half

    I've been told that before too :(. Apparently it has to be of equal or lesser value than your points.
    And while we're on the subject...I returned something worth 45 points the other day. The SA deducted the points, but now my other 115 points have vanished from my card too!:eek:

    Question re till spits if you don't mind?;)

    I have 3 clubcards, two are linked. The other one is new, but never had anything from til or through the post. OH has one too. It's only OH that ever gets the odd til spit. At the weekend when he went on what turned out to be his disaster shop :D he did buy small item using my clubcard and then his in another one item transaction, yet nothing commeth from the spitter :cool:

    Firstly should I un-link the two cards?

    Secondly, is it because we use SS?

    Thirdly, if none of the above, what am I doing wrong?!!!:eek:

    TIA

    BSM:)
    Just a quick one as I'm cooking dinner - pork steaks, whoopsied to 60p :rotfl:
    Don't use SS if you want a till spit. And try to go to a SA and buy one or two things first - be it a paper or your whoopsies. When I spend LESS money, I normally get a til spit :D
