Default Virgin vouchers for sale!
£40 worth of Virgin vouchers for sale - unwanted Xmas present.
I was delighted until I found out that you can't actually buy real virgins with them - apparently they're for use exclusively in some shop on Union St.

OK, so £40 vouchers for sale, £30. Can't say fairer than that, Im totally skint!

I actually got HMV to take back some vouchers about 7/8 years ago....

I had a conversation with management and said that I will never buy anything in their shop..I was very polite about it and stated my case... I left the vouchers on the desk and walked out..... A security guard stopped me and the manager gave me £20 and said it was strange to see a kid sticking to his guns so much.

Good for you Ross. Unfortunately I tried stating my case and they refused, then I tried to offer them discreetly to someone in the queue who was about to buy something and I was pretty much thrown out, so...

ROLL UP, ROLL UP, £40 of Virgin vouchers still going for £30!!

Lots of people sell unwanted vouchers on Ebay.

BTW Virgin give discounts on CDs - I asked the price of a CD - said that was far too expensive, then was offered a 30 % discount which I accepted !

Why not just spend them? Surely there's a cd or dvd that you want?

just go in the shop and when someone is away to buy a computer game, cd dvd or whatever say you will swap £40 worth of vouchers for £30-35, and they will more and likly be happy enough to get it for £5-10 cheaper

Thanks for the advice all, but Im absolutely skint x 1,000,000 so id rather have any cash than some god-damn vouchers! i tried selling them in the shop like you suggested but they obviously aren't into that - they asked me (very politely) to leave! Someone else must want to buy something!! Offer me £25 and they're yours!!! God-damn i'm a poor man!!
