Has anyone ever bought from a website called hogiesonline.co.uk?

They seem to have lots of bargains e.g. Dior makeup but I don't want to buy fakes.

The works didn't actually do the stationary advent calendar last year, it was the year before. I remember cos I was after one and they didn't bring one out. They might this year though. Original price was £10.

RJ search for reviews on Google? They have free tracked 48hr delivery according to the website and they sell branded makeup in damaged boxes. The date at the bottom of the page is 2017 but I don't think that means anything.

What's the John Lewis tree bargain I've missed?

Love this thread!

Firefly, I think I will, or at least I will if she doesn't get suckered in by advertising first!

Grumble about halfcost: it won't let me through the checkout because it doesn't recognise the postcode for my Irish billing address even though I'm using a UK delivery address. Harrumph.

RJnomore1 · 31/08/2017 23:27

They seem legit Picards. I'd rather someone said yeah I've used them thoughtsyou can fake reviews can't you?

Curious2468 · 31/08/2017 23:41

I got the brimbles calendar for myself last year and loved it! Def recommend. I'm planning on getting it again this year :)

imsorryiasked j love that TV set! I'm going to have a browse now GrinGrin

MooMooTheFirst · 31/08/2017 23:49

I love the rosebud stuff!! My only bugbear is that a lot of it is pink. Now, I love pink and I'm sure DS will too, but I don't want everything pink. I might see if I can mix and match the furniture with happyland or whatever too...

RJnomore1 · 31/08/2017 23:53

Decent bits and bobs still
In the hollister and Abercrombie sales.

whatwillicallmyself · 01/09/2017 00:43

Annwithnoe that's happened me before and I just put in my parcel wizard address as the billing address too and it worked out fine.

whatwillicallmyself · 01/09/2017 01:19

Thanks English rose I just placed an order from house of marbles, they have some nice little stocking fillers.

Mallowmarshmallow · 01/09/2017 06:45

Could somebody possibly link to the kawaii stuff again please? That was the one with the nice stationary bits, wasn't it?

(Disclaimer: I can never remember whether stationary or stationery refers to the paper-y stuff...!)

Hi all,
I always buy the Lego advent calendars in the Argos 342. Last year I bought all three and put the others away for Christmas they went down a storm in the days after Christmas.

Foof I bought my auntie an iPhone from eBay; it was from the music magpie shop. It's like a seconds shop I have soles cds to them before now. It's was £100 for an iPhone 5s and (touch wood). It's all working well!

Annwithnoe · 01/09/2017 07:31

OhHolyFuck · 01/09/2017 07:33

Mallowmarshmallow · 01/09/2017 07:41

RJ I bought something from Hogies online after seeing it mentioned on a perfume thread on here so presume it's legit.

I was really pleased with what I bought. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition.

Maybe do a search on mumsnet for them to check?

mayathebee · 01/09/2017 09:10

Thanks Highmaintenancefemalestuff, I was after the Game of Life. I'll go and have a look now.

woodwaj · 01/09/2017 09:16
