Lovemusic33 I bought my son (12) who loves sloths this soft toy. It is lovely and much better value than others I had looked at Sloth

Thanks bwatch I have no idea what a break box or card cover is!! Off to look!

I never got my cat beds, toddler wings back pack, finger gloves or something else I forget. I've messaged all sellers to resounding silence. I can't see anyway to ask amazon for money back on my app?

I'm really happy with the cornerstones package that arrived to day through the MN offer. Someone had used my referral Cade (thank you) so not only was the whole set reduced for MN from £30 to £14 they still let me use the £10 referral fee so I only paid £4!

Really quick delivery, great email updates on said delivery, the box is great and also includes a £10 off voucher. I'm really surprised they allowed the referral money to attach to the deal.

Very happy customer who will be returning.

Just wanted to post a bargainacious gift I found...sorry if this isn't quite the right thread?

Was looking for a nice faux fur throw for the in-laws. Kept finding them, even on the high street at £80-£120. Finally found one on QVC, by Kelly Hoppen. Only £30, but available in easy pay £15 for two months. Wasn't sure how nice it would be, but it arrived today and is gorgeous. Looks like twice the price. So while I know £30 is still a fair sum, it does look like a much more expensive luxury gift.

I got the taupe, which is like a soft mink colour.

QOD, i found easiest way to contact Amazon for a refund was to go onto each missing order individually. Then click on the three lines at top left of screen, right at the bottom of the drop box menu is an option to contact customer services.

My missing helicopters were refunded within minutes of sending the email.

RoastieToastieReastie · 09/11/2016 21:04

My Death Star ice cube thingy took about a month I think.

I've had very good experience with Amazon customer service, they have always sorted issues very promptlY.

I'm really sorry for the confusion everyone - my two codes are for The White Company NOT White Stuff sorry... If anyone wants them please PM me.

Crikey it's hard to catch up!
Nothing major to report, but to say the Matalan Christmas microplush/ furry blankets are beautiful- smaller just fleece for £5 and beautiful giant ones for £15 with the furry stuff on one side- I want one! Is there a Book people code anywhere around? Thank you- also thanks to whoever used my Cornerstone link- I was really pleased with it and hubby says it's a great shave, so would heartily recommend

happyscrappy · 09/11/2016 21:35

haudyerwheesht I'm a complete newbie to Pokemon cards and willing to be corrected but having spent many boring hours researching for DS's present I think I'm going to go for the new Pokémon TCG XY Evolution set cos it's basically a remake of the original 1999 set (but better!).. or maybe I was just convinced after reading this!

todayisabeautifulday · 09/11/2016 21:42

Thank you for the Debenhams and Book people codes, really useful!

sherbertdibdab · 09/11/2016 21:48

polkadot WINTER30 should get you £5 off a 30 spend at the book people.

winewolfhowls · 09/11/2016 21:49

My playmobil arrived today too. Respect to them for honouring all the orders.
The only problem is that they included the catalogue so now I want....everything!

Spiderpants · 09/11/2016 21:53

Yeah, my playmobil order showed up so chuffed with it! so thank you to who ever posted the codes.

If anyone see the Lego advent calendar at a good price, I would be extremely grateful

Polkadot1974 · 09/11/2016 21:56

Thanks Sherbert!

luckiestgirl · 09/11/2016 22:00

DH wants a new high quality knife block set. And new frying pans. Anyone know any good bargains? Or a good place to look?

Chocolateteabag · 09/11/2016 22:01

Does anyone know what time the M&S advent calendar goes on sale tomorrow? Will it be 12.01 or 7am?

Already need to be ready for 8am for Carfest tickets (sooo not bargainous)

Polkadot1974 · 09/11/2016 22:24

Just seen Strictly annual for £2.99 on Book People, as is the Match annual- both 2017 and I paid a fortune for the Strictly one last year- well £10, which is a lot in my book! (pun intended)

Haudyerwheesht · 09/11/2016 22:44

Thanks happy off to investigate. I start reading descriptions of each thing though and about 3 words in its all 'blah blah Pokemon blah blah pikachu blah blah...' It's like GCSE maths all over again'
