Ooh I just got some Trattoria goodies too Grin. It wasn't long ago at all that I signed up, I think in the region of 2-3 weeks ago, no longer.

shelley72 · 28/11/2013 11:26

Does anyone know anything about 20% off event in accessorize today? Is it in store only? Have a couple of bits to get in there (and last year's voucher too spendBlush and was wondering if it is worth the trek?

GlitteredPinecones · 28/11/2013 11:37

I just got my Trattoria goodies too :) Can't believe they were free! Lovely. Wine, spaghetti, salsa and olive oil- get in ma belly! Grin

LottieDidIt · 28/11/2013 11:38

Reastie Flowers Flowers Grin great title!

notso have you received your next batch of beer from Beer52 yet? Was there the extra bottle for 'referring' me? They didn't send mine but I emailed them and they apologised for the mix up and confirmed you would be getting your bottle so I hope you have.

MooseyMoo · 28/11/2013 11:41

I've got my Trattoria freebies too. So pleased with them. Going to wrap them up for DH Grin

Thanks for the Toucan code . Looks like they send out on first of the month so might have to cancel on Sat?

tryingforsolong · 28/11/2013 11:42

OMG I can't keep up, I'm supposed to be working, I'm addicted to checking this thread, have just been paid and I'm all flustered! I hate to miss out on a bargain Grin

I have started a list of things I need but not sure now whether to venture out to the RL shops (which I hate, but think Poundland is a must this year!), or sit with my iPad and go crazy!

tryingforsolong · 28/11/2013 11:45

Tesco have 25% off everything until midnight on Monday!
here

Pogosticks · 28/11/2013 11:47

My Toucan confirmation email says I'll be charged on 15 December so will make sure I cancel before that. And have printed off their T&Cs just in case of any Hearst-type shenanigans. I'm glad I didn't bother with Beer52, I was tempted but didn't get round to it - sounds more trouble than it was worth in the end.

lagoonhaze · 28/11/2013 11:47

Body shop gift with Glamour subscription - rang and asked - demand has been high and they don't know when they are getting new stocks but they are. Think I may cancel as soon as third mag comes as don't want to be charged full subscription rate.

Hobbycraft 25% off Everything with code: 2000182366

GlitteredPinecones · 28/11/2013 11:51

10 minute warning until the book depository starts Grin

notso · 28/11/2013 11:53

No LottieDidIt I did not. I had completely forgotten but just checked and there was only 8 bottles in each one and 4 in the taster. I shall add that to my complaining email! Thanks for reminding me.

JustShabby I knew it wasn't just me. I keep harking back to the £50 Wii and £150 KitchenAid. [wistful]

notso · 28/11/2013 12:05

The beer52 thing is ironic seeing as I have been quoted recommending in the Recommended by Mumsnet email!

DrankSangriaInThePark · 28/11/2013 12:07

Can anybody remember if I signed up to Fattoria? Grin

I have just realised that bloody bastarding Ancestry have been taking £12 a month from my credit card because I signed up for a 14 day trial and promptly forgot all about it. I have sent them a squirmy but strict email asking them to priddy please refund me because "their records will show that at no time have I accessed their website"

What do your reckon my chances are?

snowgirl1 · 28/11/2013 12:21

How do you cancel Beer52? I sent them an email asking them to cancel my subscription, but haven't had any response.

TheOneWithTheHair · 28/11/2013 12:21

You need someone with a spreadsheet to tell you what you've ordered DrankSangria.

I don't fancy your chances with the Ancestry refund but they may meet you in the middle somewhere if you are very lucky.

notso · 28/11/2013 12:24

I emailed them snowgirl they did reply and sent me a cancellation confirmation but my account is saying payment due on 10/12.

notso · 28/11/2013 12:25

I signed up to fat troika a few weeks ago. Am hopeful my freebies come before Christmas.

CadenceRoastingByAnOpenFire · 28/11/2013 12:25

Just catching up in the thread - it moves so quickly!

The Urban Outfitters pony - only Rarity was showing on the site for me, my dd's favourite is Fluttershy. Has anyone managed to order a Fluttershy? I wonder if it's sold out now or if it's my phone being weird?

Those name letters are beautiful, debating whether to get them - I've already spent so much! Grin

My Pumpkin Patch dispatch email finally came today, woohoo! Grin

LottieDidIt · 28/11/2013 12:27

grrrrr beer52 notso I'll PM you my real name so I you can include it in your email, Grin at you recommending them!

snowgirl1 do you still have the email they sent you when you signed up? There is a link on there (if its out of date they will send you a new one) if you click on that it takes you do your account and you can cancel from there. That's what I did but I think I'll double check now to make sure it doesn't say anymore money is due out.

issynoho · 28/11/2013 12:31

Present for a nearly 8yo (sorry, can't recall who was asking) - Dunelm have some lovely silicone chocolate lolly moulds with sticks for £2.99 (just seen them in real life but had eagle-eyed DD2 with me so will have to return alone).

I looked earlier this year for some but everywhere was £££ for plastic crap. www.dunelm-mill.com/shop/kids-6-cup-hearts-lollipop-silicone-mould-325488 With some bars of cheap milk choc for melting and some sprinkles, my DC are going to love these.

IvyMay · 28/11/2013 12:32

Thanks for the Hobbycraft code. They've got that weird science slime kit that was briefly reduced on Amazon for a tenner - with the extra 25% off, that brings it down to £7.50

Codes from me are:

20% and free delivery for the White Company AC957

£10 off a £90 spend at Brora XMAS90

ihatethecold · 28/11/2013 12:39

Just cheekily marking my place.
Bought this bag for my DD 10 for sleepovers.
It arrived today and it's very nice

snowgirl1 · 28/11/2013 12:40

Thanks notso and Lottie, I've found the original email and clicked for a new invitation to be sent to me.
