    My local Blockbuster is closing down :(

    Could be some cheap games and dvd's :D

    It's going to be a Morries local :)

    My local blockbusters closed down a couple of months ago as well. I got loads of ex rentals for £2.00 each and some new ones for £3 each. The games had all been knocked down to silly prices as well. Defo worth a nosy ;)

    Afternoon :)
    Hope someone can help pls

    I am on Viking site - couple of questions
    Is VAT added onto every order? I have spent £30 on loo rolls to get the 5000 Nectar points worth £25 but the total 'spend' will be £5 + VAT = £11.........am I doing it right???

    Also, how can I get the free £25 Thortons as well.

    Thanks in advance :)

    I haven't paid much attention to the VAT rate but I think it's 20% so that means £2 from every £10 which would make it correct. I'm not sure what products are classed as zero rated though. Somebody else mentioned that you had to buy 3 ink cartridges for the choccies.

    VAT is 20%, non VAT stuff includes teabags, coffee, sugar, etc but NOT soft drinks/sweets etc

    When I looked at it you had to buy 3 x boxes of envelopes for the thorntons, if it's on ink cartridges as well I may have to have another look tonight :)

    EDIT - just tried looking at the ink cartidges and if you buy 3 of the same hp cartridges you get the thorntons :D

    I can't remember where I saw that about the ink cartridges now so I may be a misinformer :o My apologies if it's wrong.

    Afternoon all, got a womble yesterday in T's unfortunately nothing back on the price promise but there was 2 lots of B&J's ice cream and Bold Liquitabs on it - my first ever success on a T's receipt apart from the 0.02p I found last week!

    Thank you capital T, Tweets :A

    Will prob stick with the loo rolls as 6 x 18 rolls Triple Velvet for £11.00 delivered is still very cheap :T(taking into calculation £25 Nectar points).

    Bye all - am off for overdue lunch and to pick up gc from sch.
