I cant decide :panic:
Ive just counted up and I have over 1600, and I have more to come in yet :clapping:
I've spent ages looking and cant choose.
I may get the balance blocks set as my lot love walking along stuff, but Im spoilt for choice and wondering if more smaller things would be better.

I'd like those but I'm about 300 vouchers short :(
If you look in the Tesco catalogue you need over 3,000 vouchers for them :eek:

how have you guys managed to register?? i just looked and it only gives you the options of schools, guides and scouts! you can't make up a group cause it gives you options from your post code!

I've counted mine up & only got 660 sainsburys one, but got over 1000 tesco ones. It's a shame it's not the other way, as you get more for less at sainsburys - but hey, whatever we get it's free.....:clapping:
Got to look through and make a final decision!

Last year I got a small net designed for the little ones and this year I am hoping to get the bats and balls to go with it. After that I will be stocking up my outdoor box with other balls and throwing items.
Anyone got any spare that they are not going to use? I am collecting the odds and was going to get something for the forum for the next event.
Please pm me if you have any spares.

those of you who are registered with them - did you all ring them up??? What did you say? Did any of you get them to register you without ringing?

I emailed them & asked to register.
I had an email back saying that they didn't think the scheme was suitable for childminders as we wouldn't be able to collect the same amount as vouchers as schools & groups, so wouldn't benefit as much. But, if I still wanted to register I could send my details & they'd let me. So I did!

Hi, I done the same as Mouse, They said they didn't think i'll get enough but i could if i wanted to. I did laugh when my pack came. Told hubbie ill put the big banner they sent me up outside.

I rang up to register and they just asked if I don't collect enough vouchers please pass them onto a school.
I've just been going through the catalogue and the web site and really don't know what I want my list is growing by the minute but don't have any way near enough vouchers for everything!!:(
650 vouchers collected so far may have a few more to come in and I like:
Tummy ache game 141 vouchers
Magnetic food fun 600 vouchers
Fun gripper target toss 525 vouchers
to name a few and I'll keep browsing :D
