The 'what to buy with my 3v vouchers' thread

ch750536

Have 2 vouchers, €17 on each, expires end of July.

What should I spend them on?

Here's some ideas for ya:

You could go to MovieStar.ie and signup for a free DVD rental trial (they require Credit Card details even for the free trial). If you enter the following promotional code you will get one month free rather than the standard 2 weeks:

PROMO 6287149

Or you could book a flight Dublin-Alghero (or elsewhere) with Ryanair for a tenner all inclusive. Eg. Dublin-Alghero, Monday 3rd December 2007, €10, then €3 extra for the credit card fee I think.

Or you could buy mobile phone credit online from O2.ie or whatever network you're with.

Or get 30 digital prints for €0.99 by following the 1st link in the following thread:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055090598 - I used this twice and had no problems, the prints are a little small but seemed good quality to me.

Signup for an eMusic.com free 2 week trial (costs €0.99c for purchase approval tho) - this allows you to download 25 MP3's from their eclectic catalogue. Just make sure you then cancel your account before the 2 weeks are up.

And have a look on play.com for cheap books..

Movies, err, dont need to do rentals, have the interweb.

Ryanair, had a look but the wife would not be happy (or maybe she would) if I went anywhere on my own.

Music, see movies above.

Buying movies, like to do for box set tv stuff, like sopranos etc or Bette Davis box sets. Have checked all the free delivery places, no luck.

Looking like 02 at the mo, can use up 2*10 euro leaving a nasty 7 on each voucher.

Decided to do this, while their catalogue is a bit poor, the classical section is good. Managed to get 7 complete albums for my 25 tracks.

Thanks.

There wasnt. Checked on ebay, delivery is the big issue.

Consider that cdwow etc have free delivery.

well I would usually be thinking along the same lines, but DVDs can far surpass xvid downloads if you're into nerdy bonus features such as director's commentaries etc..

7 albums for 25 tracks! nice1

You could buy some out-of-date tax discs...

Best idea yet

USB Dongle or USB card reader, you'd still have some money left over to donate to boards.

Give them to me.

I've got 2.50 left on my 3v voucher. I suppose I could get bugger all for that.
