I found a bug (not security bug) in an apparel companies website allowing unlimited reuse of their £10 of vouchers. I reported and got a free t-shirt :)

I'd say it's a bug, but not a security bug.

You can still blog about it.

I agree with their assessment. No sensitive data's confidentiality or integrity was impacted, and no availability impact to users.

Their number one source of revenue (search engine results page) could be defaced.
