Read through it all and am confused as heck !

I gathered, finally, that the 13k was something to do with the selling of the Florida house...which begs the question.

Why on earth did you leave Florida to come back to this old dump of a country ???

Because Omega's are better than Catera's.   ::)

Vouchers handed back this morning.
Job Interview cancelled this morning. Let some other poor person who is unemployed get a crack at it.
Appologies posted.
No new clothes, no spare money cos what I sold my house in florida for the US government kept 10% of final selling fee, and that is why I got the tax refund.
But never mind, a lot more peeps are happy now.
I will be ok now they are happy.

I'm confused as well now, you stated that you spent them yesterday in your original post?

I had them, you have to go to the Store, in my case they told me they use Evans, 1st you go to the store and choose your clothes, then you go back to DWP and they give you a voucher of some sort, and then off back to the store, I chose the clothes, collected the vouchers and after all the cafuffle on here I went back to DWP and handed green voucher back.
Woman there looked at me, I signed for them as being handed back, and got strangest look!!! Did not say why, just walked away.

I am confused too, as it definately stated in the opening post that she had £150 of clothes that she didnt need, so "thank you Gordon Brown" or words to that effect....

Cant be bothered to go over it all again anyway and she has already apologised.

I think alot of people have been surprised and disappointed in equal measure at the particular members confusing and conflicting postings.....

Me too webby, but for a slightly different reason. In her 1st. post, Diane said she had been to Evans & now had £150 worth of clothes she didn't need? Today she says she has returned the voucher! Call me thick if you like but I either am bloody stupid or she is now telling us untruths. How can you hand in a Government voucher in return for goods, and then return said voucher unused? Answer: You CAN'T. You also can't return the clothes to the store & ask for the voucher back, I phoned my local Jobcentre Plus Office this morning to check!  >:(

Paying tax isnt a savings scheme which is later repaid in benefits. Its money paid to the exchequer to (supossedly) run the country.We have had taxes since God was a boy, but benefits were a 20th century creation. ;)
