Oops I broke my pact

So I 'bought' a game from Gamestation.
When I say 'bought', as I was going into town with a backpack full of parcels anyway, I thought I'd shove 7 old x-box games I never play anymore and Yoshi's Island for the GBA in there and see what I could get for trade in.
With the 7 X-box games I managed to get £21 so I got Oblivion for £6.99

The rather dim guy at the till forgot to scan Yoshi's Island through till after I'd bought Oblivion so he gave me a £10 credit note.
Ohh the horrors of me having to buy something else from there one day

Does anyone know how long credit notes from Gamestation last?

I've also realised something a tad odd.
I traded in Burnout Revenge for the X-Box for £6 (I plan on getting it for the 360 at a later date). I bought it in the exact same store in September for £4.99.....erm.

We spotted a trade-in game at Gamestation in Liverpool that actually cost more than the original game (which was stacked right next to it). Random pricing.

Yeah Viva Pinata. Noticed my local one had the price mix up a couple of days ago but they've sorted it out now.
Was half tempted to get that but couldn't decide.
