Quidco have their bonus offer on again spend £6 and get £2.50 bonus cashback - useful for getting loo paper from Wilko
(£its £6 to include vat) but don't include delivery

It would also be useful for anyone getting £5s from marks

If you want to spend £5 excluding VAT I think you'd have to spend £6.25 total.

It's definitely still 20%. 20% of £5 is £1. However 20% of £6 would be £1.20, which would make the shop £4.80 excluding VAT. I hope that makes sense! And I also hope I haven't got it very wrong ;-).


In the Ts&Cs it doesn't say it's £5 excluding VAT so that's probably why your cashback has tracked anyway.

Oh wait......I've got it all wrong. You add 20% to the base price. What a numpty. How embaressing. :o:o

So, in an effort to make up for my complete failure at understanding how VAT works above, I'd like to draw your attention to free Fruit-tella sweets:

Jane McDonald did a cruise round the Isle of Mull, I think it's great idea if you have good sea legs but I don't ever think i'll get on a boat again after a bad experience. You can watch the episode here:

Yes we watched that when it was on but way too expensive as ideal

Forgot to mention that you might be able to order one fwee per mobile telephone you install the app on to. Worth a try. I know someone who has done this :cool:
