18th thread

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).

Apologies that the long code list isn't fully updated from the last thread - I've been ill and haven't been able to keep up. If there's anything good which I can add to the next OP please will you fill me in and I'll add it? Thanks

Damn it was too slow to order and those bird scarves are now back up to 14.99!

ScornedWoman · 29/10/2013 22:18

Bit of a long shot, but I'm looking for a vintage style truck, like the one in the latest McDonald's advert. (I boasted to a friend that I could find anything, and find it cheap, but think I might have bitten off more than I can chew with this one:$)

SurvivalOfTheUnfittest · 29/10/2013 22:21

Thank you wonderful ladies. I think either the boat or the playground would fit the bill. Happy to spend money on them both right now after such a tough year.

Casaustorm · 29/10/2013 22:23

survival I hope your ds1 improves a bit overnight...big hugs.

InTheRedCorner · 29/10/2013 22:25

girlsyearapart · 29/10/2013 22:33

BuffyFairy · 29/10/2013 22:36

Thanks for the scarf link. Rosvita I've just ordered for £3 postage so maybe try again?

Survival hope your DS gets better soon Brew

Clr2014 · 29/10/2013 22:37

rosa, i thought that too - was on my iphone. tried again on laptop and they were £0.00

InTheRedCorner · 29/10/2013 22:38

the NSPCC are looking for £5 donations for a personalised letter from Santa Here

500internalerror · 29/10/2013 22:38

Just ordered 3 scarves for £3 SmileSmile

Morrisons was rubbish tho - nothing much in there at all.

NeverQuiteSure · 29/10/2013 22:42

Dylan If you have the "your free £10" email from Boden then I don't think there is a minimum spend. You should have a 12 digit voucher code that gets entered on the payment page (under gift vouchers iirc) not on the shopping basket page in the discount box.

I just stacked mine with the M227 voucher code from the email they sent me today (£10 off when you spend over £50, £20 off over £100, etc) and have ordered 2 pairs of trousers for DS for £36 delivered.

Clr2014 · 29/10/2013 22:45

Thanks for the scarf link. I was really wanting a new scarf for myself with some kind of picture pattern and this one is perfect. I chanced my arm and asked for 2.... although didnt't read t&c so hoping they will only send 1 rather than charge me for the second Shock if can't have them both for £3...

Clr2014 · 29/10/2013 22:46

i also got a Boden voucher. Was really surprised as it's my third one since the summer hols... dd doing well out of them Grin

Rosvita · 29/10/2013 22:48

Thanks ladies am on iphone so will try on laptop.

Opheliabumps · 29/10/2013 22:50

survival if you don't already have it, the Playmobil pool is less than £17 on Amazon(can't link from my phone), and is our most played with item of Playmo, and we have a lot of Playmo.

Hope your DS is on the mend, I'm a woolly hugger so know how tough a year you've had x

NeverQuiteSure · 29/10/2013 22:51

Plates my DD was 2.7 last Christmas and Hello Kitty mad. She has the house you linked to, which I would caution against as it's very small and the little figures do not fit on the furniture. It's like the house/furniture and figures are to different scales (figures too large). That said, it does still get played with, so not all bad.

A better choice, if budget permits, might be some if the Hello Kitty unico sets which are a good size and Duplo compatible. We also have two of these Hello Kitty Fashion Boutique sets. They're a bit expensive on Amazon, but I'm sure I've seen them in shops at £5 each.

GooFawkes · 29/10/2013 22:58

Spooky, where did you find out about your Abel &Coe codes? I'm a customer too, so if you tell me where you got the code from I'll hunt through my inbox or the paper recycling box

DreamlessSleep · 29/10/2013 23:05

Darn. It won't let me order scarf, the site before said u could pay by credit or debit and I only have a debit and its only coming up with credit as an option.

Rosvita · 29/10/2013 23:06

Thanks one bird scarf on it's way to me-now who to give it to...

Pumpkintopf · 29/10/2013 23:08

Thankyou for the scarf link Flowers it looks fab.

Weetabix I can't find the asda nordic glasses etc on their website - are they online yet,mdo you know? Thanks Smile

Clr2014 · 29/10/2013 23:10

Dreamless sleep i had that issue too. Had to fish out a credit card we never use...

twinklytoes · 29/10/2013 23:13

those that are ordering more than one of the bird scarf - are you sending them to different addresses/using different emails? I could do with a couple of them.

Thank you ratherbeonholiday I've had the trunki boostapak in my amazon wishlist for ages just watching it as I don't need it until next summer but have just bought it. I didn't see the price drop on it until I saw it on here.

InTheRedCorner · 29/10/2013 23:21

Twinkly I just selected 2 in the amount column with the same email address etc. you could select 9 but I didn't want to push my luck.
