A £50 voucher for John Lewis.

Received this as a gift and not sure what to get with it so looking for some inspiration....

John Lewis is not a shop I ever shop at but I was given a JL voucher. The amount left will be spent on Lego.
Before Xmas I spent some on a Nintendo Switch game (had to order because they don't actually sell them in store Hmm) and the rest was spent at Waitrose.
Really was disappointed with John Lewis as a shop. I hoped to get loads of Christmas presents there but I wasn't impressed with anything. Thank goodness they sell Lego. The rest of their toy department was pathetic.

I'd get some PJs or make up

I’d probably spend them on my food shop at Waitrose! There isn’t a JL near me but I have a Waitrose nearby which I use a few times a week so it would just be spent there.
John Lewis is nothing special imo, just a department store where you can buy things you could buy at any other department store.
I would say if I was passing a JL then I’d probably spend it on makeup but I tend to shop elsewhere for my beauty purchases as I get loyalty points.

Some really nice nightwear .

A food shop sounds nice.

Graphista · 02/01/2022 16:41

Perfume

Make up

Skincare

But in reality would prob blow the lot on cross stitch stuff in the haberdashery

Bedding

Buy whatever you need @ladymary86

Never been in John Lewis so I wouldn't know, but if they do homeware/ home decor I'd find something!

mangodreams · 02/01/2022 19:34

Put towards some new bed linen or a nice throw.

I think I might go for some nice skincare bits. I could use a decent primer.

Wait until there is 20% off day. A Molton Brown Orange and Bergamot diffuser and a fancy pants mascara.

If you plan to use it for skincare, it's worth knowing that if you take in 5 used skincare or beauty bottles/products for recycling, JL give you a £5 voucher to be used towards another beauty purchase so would lift your amount to spend up to £55.

Oh thank you! I didn't know this but I'll probably be buying online. The nearest John Lewis is pretty far from me unfortunately otherwise I would definitely do this!
