ooh nearly forgot,
what about the new clause in the T delivery saver ??

If your shop comes to less than £25 at final checkout we will add a £4 charge :eek::eek::eek:

How about "If you are two minutes later than the start of the delivery slot, I will charge you a standard administration fee of £20 for processing the delivery of my order." Cheeky beggars:(:(.

Why do you need to use them by next week?

They were the recent £5 giveaway ones. Spend £30 and we will give you a £5 gift card. The terms and conditions say they were only valid for one month and must be used by 30th of April.

If anyone else has them lurking around, use them up before they expire.

I'm the same I've got a £10 paper one burning a hole in my purse lol .Its one I got for £5 somewhere. I even looked in Liverpool today but could n t decide on anything. I find things dear there or rather more than what I m prepared to pay for things. Plus I don t need anything.

I have just looked online and they have a blue cross sale on again. Have a look on there. Socks/pants/cheapo t shirts etc are cheap and you would get them free. I am sure they had Bayliss and Harding on clearance as well not too long ago.

Thought you had 3 x £5 can t you find something for £15 then

Ach no pet, it's only one £5 per transaction. I cannae use them altogether.

Thanks to all for their advice. Muchly appreciated.

Will wait and see if the cat food is still on offer tomorrow. I'm going to get some for Auntie Barbz at work as she looks after loads of strays until they can get rehoused. Will be doing her a massive favour as she spends a fortune on food for them. :A

My mum always does this, you need to get to know your butcher really, her butcher cuts to size and bags as she wants it bagged, she has done this for years, but different times of the year is better prices, cant ask her as she is on holiday

Normally Debenhams gift cards are valid for 2 years from last use - and that includes getting a balance enquiry in store. So if you get a balance checked, it should extend the validity for another 2 years

Check on the back of the card itself for more info.

Debenhams giftcards are a nightmare :mad: I was given one for Christmas last year and it was only valid for 12 months so watch out.

She must have plenty freezer space Someone told me a place in St Andrews but i should've asked who sourced the animal. Think he said half a cow, a pig and 2 lambs for £700 and it lasted a year. Sounded good to me.

Thinking maybe getting others involved so it can be refreshed quicker if it works.
