Thread 6 - the one where the shark beds go astray and we try not to eat our chocolate hauls

Rubbish title but I'm off to bed in a min (it's been one of those days).

As usual links are on post two.

If I've missed anything good (which could be very likely as I'm getting back to work mode atm) let me know.

it'snice - I pretty much always bum it up to over £50 to get free P&P and then chuck back what I didn't need. I don't know why they still insist on having the threshold - surely I'm not the only person doing it and processing the returns has got to cost more than the postage?

Chocolateteabag · 15/09/2016 08:26

BUMP!

Ruby you have got me thinking about bums too much Grin

thanks for the Christmas tip for M&S - doing my order now

Thanks for the M&S heads up.

Also came on to mention the unicorn decoration, looks nice.

I've ordered 3 baubles, the 20% came off before the 3-4-2 was applied, 12% quidco, then I had a gift card left over from DS being born with £6 on which I'd forgotten about. In total, when I get my cashback, they will have actually cost me about £1.50 for the 3 baubles. Surely DH can't argue with that? Grin

ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual · 15/09/2016 09:03

Is the 20% off online only, out of interest? The pyjamas I like for ds are out of stock online but I will be near a shop this morn...

Nearlyadoctor · 15/09/2016 09:12

M&S free delivery is over £30 at the moment not £50. Hope that helps!

RubyFlint · 15/09/2016 09:15

I was wondering the same about m and s. Does it work in store?

RubyFlint · 15/09/2016 09:16

With the Sparks card perhaps?

IHOPEYOUSTEPONALEGOPIECE · 15/09/2016 09:17

itsnice I think the 20% off is from vouchers through the Sparks card (it's a universal online code but to use in store you need an actual voucher)

Your name is brilliant btw! I love Kath and Kim!

RubyFlint · 15/09/2016 09:23

20% off white company. Pricey but great quality bedding. DD's duvet covers, both from here, I bought in the sale and 3 years on they haven't faded and are 'like new' tbh.

RubyFlint · 15/09/2016 09:24

And 20% off white stuff today as well

featherpillow · 15/09/2016 09:42

Thanks for the Hotel Chocolat link on previous thread Snooky.
Signed up and I'll put them away as a present to me.
Does anyone know if you can sign up with a different e mail address but have the same mailing address?

jingscrivvens · 15/09/2016 09:48

Only catching up with new thread so apologies if this has been posted already, I got a Lego Shop code £10 off orders over £40 GB10. Good if there is a specific thing you need that won't be on sale elsewhere. Now, I'll read the last 13 pages this thread moves so fast!

WuTangFlan · 15/09/2016 10:04

I was too slow off the mark and missed the Amazon gift card promotion for the free £5 with £30 card - does anyone know if that offer tends to come around again? Kicking myself for leaving it in the basket and not checking out...

itsonlysubterfuge · 15/09/2016 10:14

wutang It happens all the time, but they pick selected people to be part of the offer, when I checked I couldn't do it this time.

Chocolateteabag · 15/09/2016 10:15

I got sent a bunch of cards to give out with the M&S 20% off to use in store too - so maybe check your post if you have a Sparks card or a friend may have them?

Also when I check my Sparks card online it said the 20% was applied to my card so worth checking? But they do sometimes only give promotions to certain card holders (see my rant on Thread 1 or 2)

If you are anywhere near me I would happily distribute - North Yorks top end near the Boro

AmyMumsnet · 15/09/2016 10:21

Morning all!

Had a few nice bargains land in our inbox today:
The White Company have 20% off with code AN642 until Sunday. I quite like their candles as they're as nice as the more expensive stuff and seem to last for ages!

Clarks have 20% off full price adult styles with code BONUS16 until Monday. Not much use for the DCs but a good chance to save some money on winter boots.

The Entertainer has 25% off Little Tykes Bath Toys

We also just found out that Rymans give 20% off your first order when you sign up to the newsletter. Turns out they do some great stocking fillers like these Minion string lights.

Hope that's useful for some of you Xmas Smile.

Also, to go back to OvO's post, just wanted to reassure you that Amazon add the "mumsnet" tracking code automatically. We don't go back and edit people's posts - the speed you lot go we wouldn't be able to keep up even if we wanted to!

Ilikesweetpeas · 15/09/2016 10:23

Hi, please can anyone help me with M&S? If there a code I apply for 20% discount online? Got my eye on lots of things...

FeelingSmurfy · 15/09/2016 10:24

M&S code is SEPT16A17 for 20% off

AlwaysNeverOnTime · 15/09/2016 10:26

Did anyone get the barbie glam get away house on Amazon? I think it was on the first thread and was 11.99. Amazon kept changing the estimated delivery date and I still haven't got it.

Ilikesweetpeas · 15/09/2016 10:27

FeelingSmurfy thank you!

FeelingSmurfy · 15/09/2016 10:30

Thankyou Chocolateteabag for the M&S code, saved me £32, and hopefully will get another £ from topcashback

Has anyone noticed that postage is free if you spend over £30 (spend over £30?? I saved over £30!!) but it's £3.50 and only £2.92 is removed from postage??

Always I bought it but cancelled the order due to the delivery delay. Hope you get it - it was a great bargain.
