Not that I’d use the card but the Blue Light Card is the same as the Forces Discount Card. I wonder if it would apply to any veterans in the area, such as the good Vicar Jeremiah who carried out sterling work in the RAChD

It means that one (or more) sections of the community are being treated differently (better) than the rest. It all seems a little “arbitrary”.

Yeah lets give the Notts. Police force a discount on any food and drink they buy.

Would this be the same police force that have screwed the club over every year for over a decade with their inflated bills, charging us more than Clownty with three times our average gate and nearly as much as Florist with eight times our gate?

You do realise the Police do more than just police football matches don't you?

It's not just Notts police officers who will use the discount. There is far more to policing work than what happens at football. It's a bloody tough job at times.

It’s a brilliant card. I’ve saved loads with it on everything from KFC to mattresses.

I was going to ask how much you got off mistresses with the card but then read again (Doh! deflated)
It's good though, got 10% off Sports Direct and JD Sports without a problem and use at Hungry Horse (20%) and Toby Carvery in the few times when I haven't got other vouchers or loyalty rewards.
Struggled at PC World big time when trying to buy a TV last summer though even though they admitted they were part of the scheme but no one knew how to complete the transaction despite the card being shown. Eventually the store shut for the day. Went to Richer Sounds of Nottingham the next day who did a better deal anyway.

Always pays to shop around as some of the deals offered are rubbish. BA and Virgin offer deals that can be beaten online.

I get 10pc discount with a work scheme which is a result.

Can’t believe that my brother, a Fireman of 20 odd years who has pulled people out of burning buildings, cut them out of smashed cars etc, gets a bigger discount than me at the bar in Sandys!!! Good luck to all of those that do the jobs that we have had chance to apply for and have never done for whatever reason. If someone gets 10 % off more than me, who cares? Or ask them to get the next round in? Mind you after the Christmas dinner I had in there he would baulk at 100 % off!

To some the world has gone bat crap crazy, even by Stagsnet standards!!!! Chill folks

All our armed forces, fire officers, paramedics, (hard working) police officers etc. deserve whatever they are offered. Not so sure about the coppers who spend more time in Sandys and McDonalds than on the beat during their shift, especially when they've only help solve one crime in twenty years. ;)

The lads who ride the blood bikes do a brilliant job and all on a voluntary basis. There was one filling up his bike at the local filling station in Broomfield between Christmas and New Year, I went over, thanked him for his services and paid for his fuel. Them lads provide a brilliant service.

Well done mate that's brilliant. You learn something every day as I didn't know the blood bikers were voluntary either.
