I picked up someone's receipt yesterday in a S trolley. They had £120 worth of points, similar to mine, I think a lot save them for Christmas.

I was hoping for a double up?

... I have over £500 :eek:.

I am waiting for double up in the autumn to cash out some more, as the advice on here was that returned the best value.

I did get over £200 out last year during double up :A.

PS - I am not bragging, regular users will know I had saved them for many years, as I had never worked out how to spend them until discussing it on here .

I have checked and 6 out of 9 family had M4gnum on their CS accounts. There is no pattern to those that did not have the offer, as they joined at similar times. I am careful about being a misinformer now though, having been stung previously when free beer was showing on mine and not on some of their's, after I advised them to buy .

We spotted the trainers that little Anon wants - they don't get any cheaper when they are old enough to recognise brands vs supermarket bought .

In SportsD1rect they were £13 more than on their website - so I asked if they match their own price. Yes they do, but they add the £4.99 compulsory delivery charge to the instore price :mad. Annoying, but they don't then also give the £5 no minimum spend voucher that you get if you select C&C instore.

Crazy pricing - so now we have to order online and collect instore in a week (5-7 working days delivery, even at that delivery price:().

I hate it that they never have the cheapest ones in store only on the website / charge more if they do have them. It used to be free delivery for a large spend on the website and if you google there is a freepost returns address - jobs a good un....

For me to





Perhaps the DW should sell me something and I should pay with points on one of the days when there are20% voucher codes floating around - not as good as double up and return but they keep trying to crack down on that....

I think the barcode receipts will make that virtually impossible now.

Did you get confirmation that you still get the voucher? I couldn't get anyone to say yay or nay a little while ago or I might have ordered from there.

I have one to C&C and return as I cancelled (turns out it is the wrong size) but it was still sent to store. Now do I leave it 28 days and they will return it and i then chase a refund, or collect (get the voucher ) then return...

Do you need their authorisation to use the freepost return address?
