They'll sell you a surgical mask with "halfwit" printed on it if you wanted one!

I have plenty of those mate

[eeyore]

what about a high end video camera like the canon xm2 ?

alternatively you could sell the vouchers on ebay - you probably wouldnt get total face value but even 90p in the pound would get you plenty of drinking money

Hmm..

If you buy Practical Photography magazine (April) there is a form in it that promises to "match" any price in the magazine.

If you used your voucher to get a 70-300 f/2.8 VR for example you would save £380.

They may have small print that excludes vouchers from this deal.

I was unable to get them to "match" or even approach the low internet prices when I tried gentle haggling, but I did get the manager of the Edinburgh shop to browse warehouseexpress and cameras2u which was slightly satisfying to watch. I told him that I liked his shop and his helpful staff but I couldn't contribute £100's more for the pleasure

Thanks for that heads up mate. I shall have a look at that.

Boddie, I don't want to dampen your spending enthusiasm mate but do bear in mind that as your 'prize' appears to be employment related there may well be a tax issue here

Its a competition based prize, based on revenue, so there are no tax implications

I wonder about this tax every Christmas when the Company gives us a box of shortbread.
Should I send the Upper Tray to Gordon and Tony?

Or maybe we should just eat 60% of each piece and let them collect the end bits in April......
