I just remembered being able to buy match tickets with it. So maybe that needs checking out. Anyway - the point I was trying to make is that you don't have to buy merchandise to cash it in. It is very spendable.Definitely used Villa Cash to buy tickets for games at VP for friends. Pretty sure you can't use it for away games.Indeed, you can use it for stuff other than merchandise.Though I did get my mate's lad an away shirt recently and only had to pay about £3 balance. Nice surprise!

Quote from: CJ on March 06, 2014, 06:38:34 PMMy guess is they've put the prices up by about 3%. My ST this year cost £528 according to my bank statement. The example they've used for finance is £545 - just over 3% increase. Having said that if they give 10% back rather than 5% that's a pretty good deal on the face of it, assuming you want to buy something in Villa stores of course. Having said that, any increase is a bit of an insult given the standard of football served up at VP over the last 4 seasons, and the cheap deals on offer to non-ST holders just rubs our faces in it.I am sticking to my guns. I will not renew. I will still attend every home game (holiday clashes excluded) via a combination of special offers from the club and viagogo when need be. There is no incentive at all, any more, to have a ST. Even though I sit in P8 (the 'cheap' seats) with a pretty good view on an aisle seat (which is such a relief as I can stretch my legs) it will still be cheaper for me to do this as I do not really mind where I sit (Billy-no-mates) and the person I currently sit beside does my head in. Will miss the fan sitting behind me, DC5, vjk and deej though.

Didn't realise you could use it to buy tickets, but I always go in the cup scheme so the price is automatically taken on my credit card. I'll have to have a closer look at it to see how I can take advantage of it

I'll have to have a closer look at it to see how I can take advantage of itI'm in the Cup Scheme as well, so Villa Cash is no use for me in that regard.My understanding is that the Food/Drink voucher book gives discounts against specific items rather than being usable against general purchases. Did anyone use this offer ? If so, is my understanding correct ?
I think the only vouchers I ever used were the couple of £1 off ones for my son's programme. I used the cash this season for me and my son to go to the Sheffield United game, so basically a free match for the two of us.
