    I've done this recently (pay with points), but had to buy something not in clearance* for the till to accept the gwp.
    *Note: I believe someone else reported purchasing sthg reduced (perhaps not clearance) and was able to get the gwp

    PS: any good news on the sanctuary/ natural collection gwp? :o

    Ok - i might be a bit mad but does anyone have any super duper ways of storing all the ACM, parenting and magazine vouchers until you use them?

    My purse is at bursting points and i'm printing them as i see them incase they go but i'm finding i'm missing them because of them just being in the back of my purse.... on the lookout for a good clear credit card type holder, lol :)

    Just thinking that this afternoon too. I am thinking of using one of the clear plastic wallet things that you either get kids colouring pencils on or underwear in M&S/tesco - I tend to hoard these things.

    At the moment I use old envelopes with the relevant coupons inside and the tips of what I can get from you lot written on the back.

    I put the ones I think I'll use in my purse.

    I put all the other ones which might come in handy inside my personal organiser.

    I also have a mini folder which fans out (sorry not sure of the exact name) which I keep all my money off coupons in at home until I decide to take more out to put in my purse.
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)
    Boots points: £0.28
    Pigsback points: 715 (4 xBoots£10 & 1 xPizzaHut£10, 2 x £10 clothing vouchers)
    Mutual points: 3417 (redeemed 8250)
    Rpoints:redeemed 28925 points)Cashbag:£8.91(£20)

    Both great ideas :) I'll look out for something to keep them handy..wonder if the back to school section would have something.

    edited to add - i've just hunted in my cupboard and found a flexible 6x4 small photo album which is perfect for keeping them in as the pages are clear to see at a glance what i have.. plus it will fit in my bag.... and it was from boots, lol.

    I got a voucher from the ACM today for a free Boots hair dye permanent or semi £2.99, took it to the till and bobs your uncle.

    Also thanks to the OT for the tip for time to unwind. with the AC vouchers stop smoking and boots mag, I ended up with a 21p credit.

    Cheers
