I’m doing things a little differently this time - if lost then see message 2 on the first page for the codes/info collated from previous threads (to save slow loading for those using phones).

Hope this works a bit better and please give me feedback Grin Thanks

we’ll need to start renting storage facilities to hide all this stuff the rate we’re going

Congratulations, mama!

ELC are doing 50% off selected dolls houses (but the one I wanted went out of stock in a couple of hours while DH was 'considering it' grr)

Have ordered this one half price instead here

IsThatTrue · 11/10/2013 14:04

Thanks bluetinkerbell I'll leave it alone then.

No I don't work for them, and I hope advertising like this is allowed.....well I don't see why not considering the way some places get slagged off on here!

they have big boxes for £5 (half price) and these and many others are in a "buy any 5 for £20" offer

so I got 5 boxes for £20, instead of £50

there were several other lines with 20% or 50% off too!

and they are not short date or anything - the ones I bought for Christmas presents were BBE March next yr

grab them while you can!

IsaacCox · 11/10/2013 14:06

Missed your post Mama. Woohoo!! Congrats Wine

IsaacCox · 11/10/2013 14:10

Can anyone remember or can point me to the list of all the Boots star week offers? I'm trying to decide whether to buy my DM the Laura Ashley set or wait and see what else there is later on.

MooseyMoo · 11/10/2013 14:25

isaac there's been lots of speculation on MSE. The most recent comment is someone saying what brands will be ootw:

1, A hairdryer because there always is one
2, S&G set, most likely to be 13th and last offer
3, Champneys set
4, FCUK set, not in its usual bag this year
5, No7 set normally week before S&G
6, Ted baker, we did have 2 both body stuff and make up
7, Joules bag? its not in the book but is instore/online £40
8, Sanctuary Set
9 possibly make up which to me would suggest no17

MooseyMoo · 11/10/2013 14:26

Forgot to add that no one knows what order (or if these are right). The poster is just going by what happened in previous years

TooWetToWoo · 11/10/2013 14:30

Superdrug are offering free standard delivery online until the 22nd.

IsaacCox · 11/10/2013 14:43

Thanks Moosey Thanks I got the S&G set before which was good. I think my dm would prefer either that or Joules/Ted Baker. I think I'll wait and see what else comes up then :)

Nimbs Thanks for the phone numbers Smile

LoreleisSecret · 11/10/2013 14:50

Just got back from a week in very sunny SpainSmile back to gloomy england Confused can someone please link me to the blazer ?

Much appreciated !

iloveholidays · 11/10/2013 14:52

Can I ask if Home Bargains have the same stuff in each branch? I'm thinking of heading over there one day next week, but its a 40 minute drive. Would love to get a couple of the hampers and like the sound of the photo baubles........

Great news Mama - I didn't attempt an order as I didn't believe they'd let them go through, but I suppose its a double glitch Grin

TooWetToWoo · 11/10/2013 14:59

It's mostly the same stuff ilove. I have two near me and the larger one tends to have more bedding/towels and furniture type stuff than the smaller one. But for most things like the foods and toys they're all the same in most stores.

TooWetToWoo · 11/10/2013 15:01

blazer and free bag loreleis there was a code for extra discount H15 but I think it may have expired.

craftynclothy · 11/10/2013 15:08

ilove Is it not possible to order as Collect From Store so you'd know they had them?

SpookyTeacakes · 11/10/2013 15:15

I want to order another flavourly box next month (I now have two). Wonder if the code will still work...hmm whose email address can I use next....

TooWetToWoo · 11/10/2013 15:18

Heart was in my mouth then! Had an email from Asda but it was just a reminder. Fingers crossed! Grin

iloveholidays · 11/10/2013 15:18

Hi Crafty. I can do that for the hamper baskets, but I can't see the photo baubles on the website. I've not been to one before so a bit intrigued anyway Grin

joymaker · 11/10/2013 15:19

Can't see the flavourly box bargain in the OP can someone enlighten me? Thanks

newtonupontheheath · 11/10/2013 15:20

ilove they are mostly the same, but some are better than others. We have loads round here, but I did choose a "good" one today. They did have loads of those cup cake boxes actually. Last year I put homemade mince pies in them for my grandad.

newtonupontheheath · 11/10/2013 15:22

Does anybody have the playmobil pirate ship? Would it be ok for a just 3yr old? Thinking of picking it up for ds and getting the zoo for dd (who will be 15months at Christmas)

MooseyMoo · 11/10/2013 15:31

joymaker flavourly10 gloves you £10 off first Flavourly order. On page 23/24 I've listed what arrived in my box this morning. It all looks lovely and perfect for a hamper (and myself). Am already thinking of signing up DH next month and DM month after Grin

Spookyteacakes did you get the beer52 box as well? Was it any good?

SpookyTeacakes · 11/10/2013 15:31

joymaker use code FLAVORLY10 to get £10 off your first order. Just cancel subscription once order is dispatched

SpookyTeacakes · 11/10/2013 15:36

Yes I did, it has 4 beers in and a packet of olives in. Haven't realy looked as it's just for FIL. Just got my blazer and bag (1st one!). Had to apologise to driver as I'm in my pyjamas Blush
