If this trivial matter is all you have to get angry about then you have a good life, live with it, move on, if you must boycott the store.

I can't believe I've managed to read this right until the end, I'll not bother recounting my tale of the Tesco clubcard voucher yesterday for fear of causing terminal boredom.
I'll be monitoring this thread just in case you do.

Good call, I know my granddaughter would much prefer sweets and crisps to a boring old dressing gown!

Can we have tractors? And the marvellously riotous French farmers? I admire their revolutionary spirit, they don't take no bullsh*t

Yeh but sweets and crips are bad for her teeth.
At least a dressing gown will keep her warm and this is what she requested anyway. It is not any dressing gown either, it is on of those fashionable one that kids like.

I obviously don't know how old your granddaughter is, but as the grandfather to a three year old I see it as my responsibility to ensure my granddaughter eats a balanced healthy diet when she comes to visit us, followed by plenty of sweets and crisps to get her metabolism to boiling point just before she's given back to her parentsYeh but sweets and crips are bad for her teeth.

Au contraire. They take trailor loads of bull5hit and dump it outside their percieved adversaries' offices.

In the past I've had change from vouchers in both smaller vouchers, and change. But that was quite a few years ago.

Is it an anti-fraud measure?
Forgeries of vouchers are, presumably, easier to produce than cash forgeries. If you have a forged voucher for £50 and could buy some small £1 item, get £49 cash change. Result.
The forger could get £50 of goods of course, but that is less appealing than the cash. And the store would prefer to lose the goods than the cash as the goods will have cost them a lot less than £49

I thought they all did cards these days, like credit-card sized 'vouchers' which have an amount on them, and your purchases are deducted, leaving the balance still to spend... last time I was given a Smiths one, that was the case. Still got one in my wallet with a few quid on it, I think.
