Does anyone use biscuits in addition to pocket hole screws on the very same joint?

I can see where using biscuits - if cut correctly - could really help alignment for both 90-degree joints and edge-to-edge joints. 

I'm not thinking so much for added strength - though I'm sure they can't hurt any. I'm really thinking about keeping the wood from sliding out of position while screwing in the pocket screws.

I do use biscuit and Kreg combinations, for example when gluing up a tabletop I put a screw between biscuits to "clamp" the glued joint. This saves on clamps and makes the piece less unwieldy while the glue goes off. It also helps with alignment.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
