Ohhh I have a voucher to, am thinking about a radio or maybe a serving plate but it is really hard to decide. Will be interested to see what people say

Throw, cushions, kids clothes/PJ's (especially if on sale) that's what I would get. Enjoy shopping.

Calic0 · 21/08/2020 20:38

Ooooh I’d probably put it towards a new matttress. Or some new bedding. I never have trouble finding stuff I want to buy in John Lewis!

Ireolu · 21/08/2020 20:39

Sheets and bedding also

Lockdownhairdontcare · 21/08/2020 20:41

A Jo Malone candle. Probably wood sage and sea salt.

You could save yourself some money and buy some Christmas presents?

Aurorie11 · 21/08/2020 20:44

Use it in Waitrose?

Hepcat75 · 21/08/2020 20:44

Waitrose food.

1Morewineplease · 21/08/2020 20:46

Something beginning with ‘Le Creuset?’

Mintjulia · 21/08/2020 20:47

Towels or bedding I think. Their duvet covers are lovely & last for ages..

Aurorie11 · 21/08/2020 20:48

@Hepcat75 snap! Grin

I got a 75 quid voucher for my wedding, I bought an expensive olive wood chopping board that I would usually never have spent silly money on!

gingganggooleywotsit · 21/08/2020 20:50

Bloomin eck use your imagination op!

Hepcat75 · 21/08/2020 20:52

Great minds, @Aurorie11. But then I'm a greedy pig (I'm sure you're not) and having fifty guilt-free quid to spend on non-essential Waitrose food sounds divine.

BIRDSbirds · 21/08/2020 21:08

Something from hush. Or towards a set of good knives.

Polnm · 21/08/2020 21:13

Wine from Waitrose Or food

lurkerbutijusthadtoshare · 21/08/2020 21:25

Do you work for a veterinary corporate by any chance 😂

Legallybleachblonde · 21/08/2020 21:28

I'd put it towards some white bedding. Or maybe a splurge on the Charlotte Tilbury counter 😊

FlumpetCrumpet · 21/08/2020 21:29

Kate Spade jewellery, Joules bamboo socks, elemis gift set (wait til boxing day and they are incredibly cheap and actually have stuff you'd use in) or booze from waitrose

Sparklesocks · 21/08/2020 21:36

Some nice bedding or go mad and get something luxe from the beauty section.

TheRealHousewife · 21/08/2020 21:47

@Sparklesocks nice bedding for £50 😅. I’ve recently bought a 400 thread count set .... not much change from £400!

recklessgran · 21/08/2020 21:51

JL non stick saute pan with lid. Best pan I ever bought.

TheoriginalLEM · 21/08/2020 21:51

@lurkerbutijusthadtoshare did you get one too? Grin

Right now im leaning towards a table lamp.

I looked at the bedding but the ones i like, the £50 is but a fraction.

Lucky you! Make up/skin cream/ new trainers/ boots/bedding/pyjamas/expensive candle/ - so many things I could instantly spend £50 on!
