Have you not got a Morrison's?

How did you acquire your Tesco gift cards? I had about £110 on Tesco gift cards back in 2009 which I think was the year after Black Friday when MOCs ceased to be currency but they didn't last long

My OH has a works scheme where he can get various gift cards discounted and other offers. Asda is on the list but its only a 5% saving so I just use my Asda credit card instead which also gives me a 5% saving. My APGs come and go very quickly as did any gift cards I had along the way.

The scheme also gives me a Sainsburys top up gift card - I just add money to my card online as I go along - saves 5%.

Ditto with Marks, I've now got a Marks top up card with £25 on it.

And I can order Morrisons £5 vouchers with the same scheme.

Amazon Ive got about £40 credit as I got a Amazon gift card with sainsburys nectar points - always useful to have some Amazon credit. Also got credit on my Scottish Power and Sky accounts - the latter through adding on 3V gift cards.

Ive got about £55 on B and Q cards - these I got in Tesco for extra points.

£10 in Argos gift card from Sun+

£25 on various costa cards and £6 on starbucks

Also £60 on one4allgiftcards which is the main problem one I am having problems using up.

So not a lot on gift cards but I would rather use them than real money. The OH works scheme I've only just started experimenting with and despite been away twice I saved about £12 in the first month - just wish it had been around when we had a nest full. Mind you we had coupons then.

Have you got any gift cards for places that no longer exist or went bust?

Some of them are CC vouchers and some from T staff being rude.

:cool:

I did have HMV vouchers when they went bust, but luckily accepted them a few days later. Used them ASAP.

Wasn't it in the news a few weeks ago that ASOS were allegedly struggling financially? A bit suspect that their warehouse has burned down, arson allegedly suspected.

Allegedly.

I had nearly £100 of HMV online vouchers when they went under :mad:. They then accepted the instore vouchers but online remain unusable as they have yet to bring back their online store.

I contacted them again a few months ago and they "kindly" sent me out instore vouchers . I immediately went in store and spent them (multiple copies of the same game, will sell or trade in) ... not that I don't trust them not to go under again ... .

I've got a small quantity of clubcards vouchers but as I tend now to save them for at least 2 years and use as a 3/4 cruise deposit - at least a thousand when converted -so as its money to use in 2 years time I don't count it into the general daily calculations.
Nectar points I do count as I can go out and use them straight away as real money - I tend though to use them for out of the ordinary treat things, non food things.
