Just tell them you made a mistake. You did the order in a hurry and only meant to order 1 not 10 and can you return the other 9
The vouchers will come in 2 x £20 vouchers and whatever change, so you don't need to spend the £40xx all in one go. You can always stock up on beer / wine / toilet rolls / washing powder with the vouchers, along with your everyday shopping
I managed to get my first DTD today. They had the cheese on the shelf, so I tried it. Of course the discount didn't come off, so I trotted off to CS. Another one who said it must be the wine! She even went off to check the shelf. Took her ages to sort out the refund and I don't think she would have mentioned the DTD if I hadn't! She said it had been so long since she did a DTD, that she had forgotten what to do. In the end, she refunded me the full price I paid, then re-charged me £10 by putting each item through at £2.50 each, then gave me a gift voucher for the £8.60 over charge. What a faff :rotfl: I don't mind too much having the gift card, as I am always in and out of there, so it will get spent. Probably tomorrow on another meal deal :cool:

I was wondering if Kipling do a purse with loads of card slots.
Most I can find is this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01DZG4830/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1488916763&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=kipling+purse&dpPl=1&dpID=418BgSf5MbL&ref=plSrch
.. but I have more cards than that. Unless anyone knows if they do an actual card wallet?
A quick reply
I've just retired my brownie in favour of the Nelis wallet. Difficult to source as v popular. No time to find a link, sorry, but worth a look. Hth
