Since Oddbins have closed down two branches nearest to me, being those in Northampton and Milton Keynes (and probably a few elsewhere too), I have not yet been able to cash in my 50 Oddbins vouchers, which I won for my October's forecast so....
Any chance of changing the prize vouchers from Oddbins to say, Tesco, Sainsburys, or some other business, which is a bit more popular than Oddbins and less likely to go shut branches and/or even go bust?

A very quick 'half a go' on 'Google' tells me they have also closed Dunstable and Chester.
Apparently, some but not all of them are being re-branded into 'Nicholas French Wine' outlets so I don't know whether this will happen across the board eventually.
Anyhow, the main point I want to make, is that Oddbins are few and far between and obviously now getting fewer and farer betweener.
In fact, back in February 2007 they were advising they were going to be closing 50 outlets during the course of the following 12 months - but with a proviso they were going to re-open the equivalent number up again but in more profitable locations. It will be the latter bit of this that hasn't been happening.
From a piece in August 2008:
"Castel, is rumoured to have paid 57 million for the Oddbins brand in 2002, and came under fire for flooding outlets with its own French wines. This led to high -profile departures among Oddbins' Wimbledon-based buying team and criticism it was failing to deliver the eclectic mix of New and Old World wines demanded by consumers .
Concerns that it had lost confidence in the Oddbins brand were compounded by its strategy to expand the Nicolas fascia in to the UK. The move saw the Oddbins chain shrink from 246 stores, when Castel acquired the business, to 158. Those that were not converted were closed, leaving Castel with 82 Nicolas branches that it will now run as a stand-alone business."
