Sometimes it's OK to get a book token. I mean, if I get cash I'm going to do something exciting like spend it on food/living, whereas a book token forces me to spend it on myself.

Otherwise, tokens are a pain in the arse - rather than money that works in any shop in the country, you end up with a token that will only be accepted in "Our Price" or some such where the nearest shop is in the next town somewhere!
