    I and a few relatives and friends have not received any vouchers for more than three months. So, I decided to call them up and find out what was going on, thinking they'd probably been nicked. They said mine had been issued but no problem they would simply carry them forward to the next issue.

    Anyone else in the same boat?

    Mine failed to turn up once when I moved house, so I phoned Tesco and they re-issued them straight away. The others turned up a few months later. They'd been sent to my old address. I couldn't use them though. All of them had been cancelled.

    May be I'm being a bit thick as I've not converted clubcard vouchers to deals before but I have a £2.50 and a £3.50 voucher.

    When I look at converting them it needs to be in multiples of £2.50 do I have to wait until I've got more to convert the £3.50 one?

    As far as I know there's no minimum spend. If you bought a deal for £3.75 for example, using your vouchers totalling £6.00 you would get the change of £2.25 credited to your clubcard account.

    This could be useful if your vouchers are nearing their expiry date as they would be re-issued later with a full 2 years on them. ( I haven't tried this yet but it should work.)

    Yes, you are absolutley right VoucherMan- when I subscribed to a magazine using my CC Vouchers, the total due was £7.50 and I used a £9.00 voucher to pay for them and I was told that the £1.50 left over would be credited to my next statement (February). I haven't yet noticed it added to the bottom of my till receipt- so I am taking it as being litterally added to the statement in Feb, along with my Mums' Choice Panel Points.

  • I have managed to save up (over the last couple of years) £136 in club card vouchers in the hope that I would have enough for the Tussuad's passes for 2 adults and 4 children. Unluckily I have only enough for 2 adults 2 children and some of the vouchers are due to expire in a couple of months. To pay for the other 2 children would cost me over £200, which is something I cannot afford to do. I really don't know what to do with them as most of the things I look at for a family as big as ours requires extra money which we just don't have, and having never used the vouchers for anything like this I am a little worried of making a mess and losing the money. Would I be better selling them on eBay? or is the days out option an easy thing to do? :confused:
    Thx.

    Out of curiosity... how much would it cost in clubcard vouchers to get the extra 2 kids passes?

    You could well be better off just buying individual tickets for the parks using Clubcard vouchers unless you are planning on going very frequently. (I think it works out that the pass breaks even at four visits per year.)
  • How often do you get statements? Not had one in over a year! So no vouchers either...

    £31.25 per child for the extra passes.

    We wanted to go frequently, that's why i'd been saving for them for so long, and also we have friends down south so we were going to use the passes for down there too. Suppose I have from now til march to start saving to pay the extra :o

    Will you have enough with the next lot of vouchers that come through? They are due next month I think. Also I believe that you would have even longer to save as when you send off your clubcard vouchers they will send you a voucher to exchange for the pass. This is valid for 6 months (I believe). So you could send off for some now to use the vouchers that are near to expiry and then send for more later. Then redeem them all for the passes at the same time. Maybe you should phone freetime to double check this I'm sure they will be happy to help especially as you have saved so long for them.
