All my £10 ones gone now and only about 10 gweggy.

My problem is the £20 Bella ones, I must have about 15 but don!!!8217;t think I will be using them.

Used a few a couple of weeks ago (£60 for 6 pizzas! :eek: ) which resulted in getting a pcn parking fine which I!!!8217;m going to appeal.

I wish you could sell these on Zeek or somewhere.

You cannot sell them on Zeek unfortunately as a different format ... but I do see some vouchers being sold on eBay :eek:.

How do we know that the £20 vouchers expire 31 July 2018 please, as mine just say 31 July and no year (but have assumed 2018)?

And what other promotions are running, as some on eBay indicate 2019 expiry?

Thank you

Afternoon all - we have been AWOL for the weekend - 197 miles and a 4 hour drive to see Eldest child and his Gf in East Angla - so parched and dry on their lawns, even worse than us on the west coast

Has anyone used Costa evouchers and if so have you had any difficulties?
I used a £3 one on Friday for a medium americano for £3.29 but they said they could not accept it as the till could not take part cash and part voucher but I could have a small americano £2.99. That was fair enough so I had a small americano. Except they gave us a medium anyway
Today though in the same store they just refused point blank as they said their store didnt accept them! I didnt argue the case even though I had my Friday receipt with me.
I have messaged them through FB but I am not expecting anything more than a standard reply

Good afternoon Elite.
Kettle's on.......

In the event I have £10/£20 codes left at month end, did someone say Toby and Bella do take out alcohol? I know this would be expensive but would rather have something than waste the voucher (that I didn't pay anything for but, well, you know!)

The only issues I have had was trying to use in a service station as they are not on the same toll system. Main cafes should accept them without issue - and yes you can mix the gift card and cash. It seems you were trouted.

Been doing a bit of spare time checking on my finances etc.


Last month changed mobile over to the (hopefully!) net £6.50 a month 5gb contract.
Looking at my dual fuel, I will need to wat a month until I can get out of contract and again hopefully a deal that will reduce my annual payment by about £500 :eek: . Paying £145 a month and will reduce to under £110


So next was TV Broadband and Phone


Currently have Virgin full house with BT Sports HD and , phone with unlimited calls and 100meg Broadband £117 a month with a £10 discount down to £107.
I looked online and Verging were offering new customers everything I had PLUS 200meg AND HD channels AND HD Movies for £99 introductory for 9 months and then £125.
Previously I have failed to get new customer deals from them, but was hoping for the upgrade for full £125, so with my £10 only £8 more.
Called them up to upgrade and NOPE they wouldn't give it to me for £125, they gaver me the new customer deal (£99) with £11 off my next bill!! Took ten minutes for the upgrade to come to my box and now have the whole lot. RESULT.
Hopefully the dispute with UKTV will be resolved soon.

You can buy a bottle of whisky from Ember Inns to take out if you are prepared to pay over £60 :eek::eek::eek:

Hi PD, what have you been up to to make you stay away so long :eek:

In a nut shell, working like a nutter. :rotfl: I've worked all over London, Glasgow, Manchester, Marlow, Kent and now back in London again working 14 hour shifts in Stratford. I've also been to the US and Germany for fun

How's everyone?

When I went for my free ice creams the other day before walking the walls the girl jobsworth informed me I had to have two separate ice creams when I wanted a bigger tub to put the two scoops in huh. So there was I walking round with an ice cream and cone in each hand I must have looked a right greedy one lol

WE went for BT Broadband a few months ago and pocketed 400 quid of cashback and mastercard and then of course they put their prices up (they just can't help themselves) so we have a get out of contract free (I did mention this at the time to someone who decided not to go to BT).


Now I need to choose between now broadband £13.50pm after cashback for 36, plusnet 18:50 for 72 or virgin 19:50 for 100 - thoughts, is 36 enough?
