That"s what it says Imp. I got one last year when I was already a member, but I can't remember if it said new members only then. I could be tempted to get it and then give it to my parents if it doesn't work, but my dad hates having to give his details, so he won't want to put his credit card details in!

Anyone else find it fascinating when there is the same thing in more than one colour to see which goes the fastest? Blush
I am so tempted to look at the dolls pram this evening for dd for next year, but we really don't need it yet!
Does anyone know if there'll be any Lego anytime soon?
I kind of remember there being more 'mystery' items last year...

Sorry if this has been raised earlier, but I'm trying to buy the leather gloves and at checkout I'm being asked to pay the full price - there is no discount applied.

What am I doing wrong?

Reviews on the LoveFilm offer say it was definitely available to existing subscribers last year.

I can recommend Camilla Lackberg books coming up. Really enjoyed them. Swedish crime type.

How are you notified if you're on the waiting list? I missed the dexter box set but on wait list - although poor.

Do you need to sit & wait?

I'm not getting it at all this year. Is there some way of seeing more than 2 upcoming offers at once? Last year I could see a whole page of them. There are several things at the same time I'm interested in. How the heck do I get all of them up on screen? I can currently see two things at a time.

Just answered my own question as I opened the amazon window it had popped up in my basket & of course I was too late to purchase!

Back to the bottom of the wait list now Sad

Have to go get DD from nursery in 10 mins so I doubt I'll get it...

I am on the wait list for something - how will I know if I have a chance to buy it or do I have to sit in front of my computer all morning waiting?! Did get the ice watch for £20 though - absolute bargain!

Warning - lack of packaging. You know how amazon things are normally well packaged, well dh just opened door to courier and accepted a parcel......his christmas present. I was upstairs and dh shouted up "Have you bought an rac air compressor?". (I know it's not very exciting!). There was no usual amazon box, just air compressor box with name label stuck on.

So be careful if any presents arrive in the presence of recipients!

The compressor did say that would be the case with packaging in the description. If it is a gift for someone then they say to order it as a gift.

Just texted DH about the little dictionary/crossword solver, DS stood on FIL's crossword solver, so have been meaning to look for a new one for him. Hope it goes for a good price, it's very expensive at the moment!!

Oh is that what certified frustration free packaging means?! I thought that it meant not wrapped in irritating plastic. It is not very secure as the box was half open.
