I can't get out to get the paper until later so thought I'd start a thread in case anyone gets it before me or else I will post todays code word on here later.

Snap I am desperate to take the kids to NY but don't think I will save enough, but fancied a little xtra.

TLSM · 10/01/2008 14:09

I am confused how come you can book all ready when there have only been 6 tickets available?

MegBusset · 10/01/2008 14:23

TLSM, I think those who have been on one in a previous year get a code so they can book online.

kerryk · 10/01/2008 14:29

yes, we went on one last october so we got a priority booking number sent through to us, it also meant we only needed 6 tokens instead of 7. i booked mine online but i am not sure if this is available to everyone.

TLSM · 10/01/2008 14:36

ahh explains it! thought i was missing something!

KTurner · 10/01/2008 16:33

Hi
Was yesterdays word SAND or DATE?
Thanks

Theresa · 10/01/2008 17:08

Sat = keep AND sand
Mon = look
Tues = cash
Weds = date
thurs = meet
but you can only use these onlne if you have priority form, otherwise you need to do it by post and have the actual vouchers, rather than just the words.
Good luck

KTurner · 10/01/2008 17:11

Thanks. I haven't got a priority form this time- even though I've booked before.

I emailed them and they said I hadn't been selected from the computer this time!

But my friend has one so this is for her.

kerryk · 10/01/2008 17:14

i have just realised that i booked the wrong dates, i booked it for what i thought was the 2nd week of the easter break but it is infact the week that the schools go back oops.

looks like i will have to talk nicely to my boss and dd1's school and see if they mind me taking time of, dd is never of school so hopefully it wont be a problem.

unknownrebelbang · 10/01/2008 23:05

I've booked the wrong blardy dates too - the week before October half-term, as it's later than usual.

Grrrr. And there's no way I can take mine out of school for the week - DH is chair of governors at the school of the younger two.

Scramble · 10/01/2008 23:09

When can the rest of us that don't have priority get too book?

Am I right in thinking if you don't have the priority thing you have to have the actual vouchers not just the words?

MegBusset · 11/01/2008 08:30

Yes, you need the vouchers to book by post (the form was in Wednesday's paper, but the earliest you can have a full set of vouchers to send off is Saturday).

MagsChook · 12/01/2008 18:16

I've got a token with out a number on it, is it a bonus one???

TLSM · 15/01/2008 09:18

Yes you can use one bonus (one without a number) the the other 6 need to have different numbers on I sent mine off yesterday does anyone know how long it takes for them to get back to you if its by post?

kerryk · 16/01/2008 13:07

HAS ANYONE ELSE WHO BOOKED ON-LINE STILL WAITING FOR THE MONEY TO COME OUT THERE ACCOUNT, IT CAME OUT THE DAY I BOOKED BUT THEN WENT BACK IN THE NEXT DAY AND I AM WAITING ON IT COMING OUT AGAIN.

Eddas · 16/01/2008 16:58

does anyone know if they are still being printed? the website says they are in the sun til sat 19th but dh said yesterday's didn't have a token and I couldn't see it in todays. Only had a quick flick through though whilst in Tesco!

I have one left to get and will be if I miss out! The form's all ready and waiting for one more voucher!

TLSM · 17/01/2008 08:55

It is in every day but they are hard to find I had to look three times on Monday to find my last one - study each page its there somewhere

MegBusset · 17/01/2008 09:04

Eddas I have a bonus token spare if you haven't already used one, if it's any use I can post it to you

MegBusset · 17/01/2008 09:05

Oh, didn't read TLSM's post properly, sounds like they are still running in the paper anyway.

Eddas · 17/01/2008 16:18

Thanks ladies, DH found it in yesterday's paper so we're sorted. I don't think he looked hard enough on monday

Disenchanted · 17/01/2008 16:20

Hello,

does anyone know if you have sent this off but changed your mind if you can cancel and get your full money back?

Theresa · 17/01/2008 20:53

I'd think the only way to stop it is to cancel the cheque, the bank may charge you for this although i've done it once and if you tell them its been lost in the post they cancel it for free but that was ages ago.

Theresa · 17/01/2008 20:56

KerryK, that sounds a bit worrying, i cant remember if i used debit or credit card, i'll have to check. TLSM I remember from when I've done it by post it takes an absolute age, 4 or 5 weeks easy, however they dont cahs your cheque unless you're getting a holiday so the best way is to keep checking your bank statement, if you see cheque has been cashed, you know you've got a hol, although you still need to wait for conf to see whihc choice! Console yourself that next time you should be able to do it online!
