RE: Lunch Walk - 10.43km - 02:49:59 - Walk into town

Vouchers are obviously big business these days, but they can be tricky to use. I had one from work where I had to select which shop to use it in. I need to use it up before it expires, but there's not much I want from most high street shops. I guess I can get some clothes as some of mine are wearing out.

We still have an HMV near where I work, but I think they have a lot less shops now. There are not many places you can go to buy CDs.

Tricky is the word... obviously i appreciated the gesture from my team with regards to the gift, but it would've been easier if I had just been given actual cash lol.

And it says 'hundreds' of stores, but the choice is limited on what is actually in your area. I've since managed to 'buy' a £30 sports direct evoucher, so will use that next time (fingers crossed that works!)

As for hmv, there is very little option if you want music that's not in the current charts, some of my music is so niche that often I have to buy from the band itself (bandcamp is great for that), but not the same as looking through physical cds in a shop

I've bought a lot from Bandcamp, including physical media. I just like browsing in a shop as you may discover something new.

Yep same, I've been known to buy albums just purely on having interesting album art, really hard to do that theses days (plus with streaming/youtube it's so easy to hear the full albums from bands, that I rarely 'buy blind' either...)
