    Happy New Year to you all :)

    Thanks to the lovely peeps on here I have done my first successful Asda online shop and now have price match vouchers to spend!! One thing we do get through a LOT of here is Pepsi Max so I am very interested in this one! I have got a basket ready to go but the total showing is £44.39 (including 10 x Pepsi Max and 10 x Cherry Pepsi Max) - my question is this - as this is more than I will actually pay, how does this work when using the price match vouchers as I understand that you don't get any 'change'? If I 'part pay' with vouchers and part pay with credit card - will it use the vouchers first? i.e. I could use a £20 pp voucher and then pay the balance on my card? Hope this makes sense! Any advice would be fab xxxxx
    the vouchers will come off before you finish the booking. then anything left comes off you card. but ALWAYS leave some cash to pay or it will cause problems. on collection/delivery you can then refuse what you like and it will go onto your card.

    Considerations when looking at travel sites/airline fares/catalogue sites etc.

    Generally, look during quieter days ie. Tue/Wed/Thu, not weekends/bank hols when many more are looking/booking... Economics of supply/demand kick in on busier times, therefore prices can be higher.

    Always clear history/cookies if going back to a previously viewed deal. Your subsequent visit alerts them to your interest so the price could be high. In many cases the price will return to original prices after clearing....but not always ;)

    This is particularly relevant with ticket only purchases on full service airlines/Ryanair.

    Thanks WMCB. I did clear cookies and looked on a different device but still came up same more expensive price yesterday. Not looked at all today and won't for couple weeks at least. Think must be nearly a month since I last looked until Tuesday. So hopefully the price may go down again. Fingers crossed.

    If an order is £60 and you've used £40 vouchers and the price reduces between ordering and collection the £40 will be gone whether the reduction is above or below £40. Card is only taken from the balance.

    £60 order £40 vouchers £20 card.

    £60 order with OOS or price changes reducing the total to £50 = £40 vouchers £10 card.

    £60 order with OOS or price changes reducing the total to £35 = £40 vouchers and 0card. The total will read - £5 and whilst you can ring CS for the £5 back they may take a closer look at your account if the voucher are for UDI/Heroes etc.

    I quite like their muesli, though I do still like to add fresh fruit to it, but then I do with any. I do stock up when they have this offer on.



    I think he is more that way inclined an Freddie ever was, have to wonder if it was part of the selection process :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Poor Brian May looked a bit embarrassed at times :eek:

    I remember Adam being on Americas X Factor and it was obvious he was that way inclined.

    I :D when I read that he had come out.

    I am not a Queen fan but do like Adam in the group :)

    Poor Brian :cool:

    I have been looking at a holiday for me an the girls for ages but not plucked up courage to book, absolutely gutted had not looked for ages and on Tuesday it had gone down from over £700 to £622 each, looked again yesterday morning and it was back up to £749 each. :(

    Think I have a bit to learn on when the best deals are to be had. Mr TS told me to not look again for a while and wait until the new year rush is over as lots of people are probably looking right now.

    Happy new year everyone

    Tiny I booked my flight for my holiday back in September I think, because last year I keep looking and waiting and putting off, there were a few reasons for putting off, but I keep seeing the flight price go up and up :eek: in the end I just had to book regardless of price :o I was gutted as the price had gone up over £100. So this year when I got date we wanted to go away saw the low price I just booked the flight.
    Then the hotel we go to, the price had gone through the roof last year I paid £186 for 13 nights for both of us. That had gone up too £360 :eek::eek: refused to pay, keep looking and looking over Christmas it came down to £243 book it so our second honeymoon is all booked up for the day after we renew our vows :rotfl:
