I think it is interesting that we all seem happy to accept vouchers in lieu of cash, yet, some of us are concerned they might put the client off if it’s something practical rather than sexy.
I was lucky enough to be sent a lot of Agent Provocateur vouchers from several clients for my birthday earlier this year. I only ever buy from their sale, and as there wasn’t much I liked, I’ve not bought much recently. This means I have almost £500 worth of vouchers unspent. This is not a stealth post, honestly, but sometimes I resent these vouchers when it would be so much more practical if they were for John Lewis, Waitrose, M&S or even Tesco. I do like the idea of Fortnum & Mason vouchers. I might have to add that to my list of approved stores as they might be handy for buying Christmas presents!!
