I just won £150 of vouchers at work to spend at these shops

http://www.capitalbonds.co.uk/Shopping/Shopping.asp

Now I need some advice on what to buy, I was going to get some blurays, maybe a PS3 game thats not on 360 or a dual shock 3.

What are your thoughts bearing in mind I can only spend them at the shops listed above.

Can you use them in Comet as a part-payment? You could get a nice camera or something potentially with £150 the marked price. Get a good DSLR and you'll have it for years.

There are about three big department stores on that list, so you can really buy anything you like, it's not as restrictive as you made out. Is there an expiry date on them? It may be worth saving them for a bit if you don't need anything, or you could do your Christmas shopping at those shops and spend the £150 you didn't spend on Christmas wherever you like.

Nu-uh.

Never buy pick'n'mix from woolies. When I used to work there they kept it all in unsealed boxes in the stock room which the all the grubby kids they employ to stack shelves would help themselves too. If any fell on the floor it wouldn't get washed, just put back on the shelf. When people fill up the trays at the front they would rarely wear gloves, and loads of five year olds get their mitts all over it during the day too. Worst of all, they had to send between a quarter and a third of their stock of gummy sweets back because it was maggot infested.

My tip: don't buy. Get bags of sweets or go to a respectable newsagent. Preferably not one on a school run.
