My boyfriend wanted Gears Of War 2 & WH Smith were doing it for a pretty good price + Quidco. He paid with his card on my WH Smith account & instead of delivery chose 'collect from store' as I was going to be near there later.

I got there with my print out confirmation of payment & they informed me they have to wait for it to be delivered, so usually 5 working days, which seems ridiculous. Anyway I looked a bit miffed & the guy said he could give me a copy & when the ordered copy came just out it back on the shelf - very nice of him too! Wen I returned home WH Smith had emailed me saying they could not take payment as account holder and name on card were not the same!

So in short I got paid £2.58 from Quidco for Gears Of War 2 - whoo whoo!!

Do feel quite bad about the guy though....hope he doesn't get into trouble.....
