Still don't understand how you get the other points via FB and Instagram? Liked both but nothing came through

Somebody has taken some effort to build that, think I've seen another Corsa like that too and something with a little more kudos.

So sorry .. just make sure you double check.. I think Evans has mislabelled the Jersey for a Jacket0 -
Its the jacket but only in M at £84

100% the jersey.
Light jacket = jersey. The jacket is labelled differently and RRPd at 260 vs 210 for the 'light jacket'.
Perfect for almost all UK Autumn/ Winter/ Spring conditions with the right layer, unless you run very very cold or it is absolutely chucking it down.0 -

It had better fcucking well be the jersey; I've just spent £130 on the jacket in M and ceramic blue and thought I'd got a bargain.
It is lovely though
ETA - I think you're right, it's not got the same details as my jacket, and the description keeps saying Jersey. Phew!0 -

Ta, have taken a punt - 8% back through work as well, wo works out to within a few pennies of what my current Rosless Alpha Jersey cost a few years back. Why don't they do a nice Black and Yellow colurscheme though :-(
Appreciate it is the jersey rather than jacket.
Strange Evans describe it as such, but have seen them do the same previously, with Gore amongst other brands.Felt F70 05 (Turbo)

TBH if you run warm the jersey may well be the more useful / versatile garment. I'm old and slow, but I go out whatever the weather so the jacket was I think the better choice for me.0

I did all this sharing, follow, like stuff earlier this week to obtain a £15 gift card. Left the stuff in my basket (only 2 pairs of socks as all jerseys in my size were out of stock) because I baulked at the delivery cost and they emailed me a free delivery code because I had a basket unpaid for. Used the gift card to buy the socks totalling £13, the free delivery code they sent me and the socks were delivered yesterday.0 -

so basically if you use them you get 7% off anything no exclusions, seems like a good dealRule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.

yep, depends on your workscheme - mine used to be 10% normally and 15% on promotions, but has now dropped to 8\12 :-(
I was lucky with my Synapse, as it was briefly up to the full 15 back then.
The vouchers I buy are valid for 2 years.
The downsides are, that cashback such as through TCB does not apply, as when you add the vouchers, it takes the checkout amount down to £0.00.
IF you want to return something, the refund is either added to a gift card and sent to you in the post, OR if you call them they can give you a replacement e-voucher.
But once you buy the voucher you are committed to spending it with Evans - presume Decathlon work out the same.
Not a big issue with the refund method if it's a jersey or something as you'll spend it within 2 years, but clearly 2K on a bike, could be more of a pain - say it ends up out of stock, or gets damaged, so there is an element of risk in there too.
Thinking about it, I also bought the Boardman Hybrid using a top up for a gift card in the same way, for an extra 10% off.
I've had zero issues though.
Irritatingly my workscheme does not include Decathlon :evil:Felt F70 05 (Turbo)

I've used the e-vouchers a few times. Last time was on a basket of items, one of which I later needed to return. Purchased online but returned item to Cardiff store as was visiting at the time. Refund went straight back on card. Wasn't a high value item though. The t&c's suggest this shouldn't happen, but wasn't an issue in store.Titus Silk Road Ti rigid 29er - Scott Solace 10 disc - Kinesis Crosslight Pro6 disc - Scott CR1 SL - Pinnacle Arkose X 650b - Pinnacle Arkose singlespeed - Specialized Singlecross...& an Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray 4 string...0 -

Well if anyone's interested the free Bupa rewards site has Evans, Decathlon and a load more non companies including cinema, M&S, john lewis, argos, booking.com etc https://bupa3.xexec.com/
I think Argos allows multiple vouchers and TCB combined. I'm being bugged to get a Dyson thingy-me-bob which I believe with multiple voucher use I can knock £50 off a £350 price, or i could just buy some more bike stuff .....Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
