I got mine over a year ago for a maths challenge, luckily it lasts 2 years

Do you like books? Do you like action type books? I got the new Andy McNab book at christmas with my voucher. It's a very good read so far.

Not if they go under (come on, it can't be long now) - gift cards are normally treated as unsecured debt and hence you'll be lucky to get 1/2p per £.

They have some quite good sales on console games.

Yes but they are hideously expensive.

Like the OP, I've got a pile of WHSmith vouchers. Thing is, if I wanted a book I'd go to Waterstones or the independent in town, stationary I'd go to the independent up the street, magazines I want I'm subscribed to, Newspapers I go to a newsagents, DVDs/Blu-Rays I'd buy from online from the Jersey lot (cheaper and more selection - so no incentive to buy retail). Can't think of the last time I went to a WHSmiths retail store!

Magazines....men's section....

Don't buy chocolate. Unless it's clearance it's always a total rip there.

A WHSmith ruler.... they are the best!

protractor and set squares was the last thing i remember getting from them, and that was a long long time ago.
