      One of the women in client co has 391 working days to go. I know this becasue she has it on a white board in the office in big red numbers, and takes great pleasure in counting it down at the end of every day.

        I added up my Clubcard vouchers last night, and there's £350 there.

        Time to start looking at what to spend them on - I miss the 4x deals they used to do on everything.

            That's not the "Blade Runner" version of "retirement" by the way.

              Merlin passes are a good deal if you want to take the kids out, they just did a 4* on some things.

                  If I lived in the south, I might do - but the only things near here are Blackpool (shudder), Manchester Sealife and Manchester Lego (which is OK but not that good).

                  Used to spend them on Eurotunnel but haven't been to France for ages.

                      The only thing I've used the vouchers on at Tesco was to buy a Hudl2 for my daughter when they were on double vouchers and they needed using up.

                      Obviously, I sold the vouchers to my daughter though...
