drspouse we have a dn in France. For her gifts we normally order off French amazon for delivery to her address. That way you don't get hit for massive delivery charges from the UK site. You will probably get a charge on your card for a euro transaction but it's normally small.

Aha! Thank you!

Starting to wonder if I'm the only person who doesn't much like Emma Bridgewater...

Thanks for the Superdrug and Mountain Warehouse suggestions

I offer SHOP25 for 25% off at Lands End and 11818 for 25% off at Damart (yes I have been shopping for my Mum - she's 82)

I'm looking for a decent remote control car for a 5yo if anyone has any ideas

Wiifitmama · 07/10/2017 11:58

friskybivalves I am so pleased the code worked for you! I have had some amazing bargains this year (and past!) so it is really nice to be able to pay the service forwards for someone else!

gogogazelle I got set of marvel hero masher figures in Argos- £15.99
They did also have them in the entertainer for £20 & you can get 20% if you get a birthday code. They also have offers on the individual figures

ladymelbourne1926 · 07/10/2017 12:04

Finally I just got my three mugs for £20, only took 1,000 attempts but yay! I can't remember whose code I used sorry but hope it helps someone. That's a cousin sorted and one for my son who collects them.
Not very exciting but Sainsbury's had twiglet tubs down to £1.50 half price in store and lots of other chocolates on offer, I'm stocking up as I have the 5000 coming for Christmas!

SnowBodyforrrrm · 07/10/2017 12:05

I'm also suffering from PBSD. I followed all the steps but it's not giving me my free mug. I'm getting free p&p, £10 off and 2 mugs for £30. I've tried switching mugs but it's still coming to £40.

What am I doing wrong 😭

I'll admit I was buying them just to prevent FOMO on the offer but now I've matched each mug to a recipient...I NEED them!!!

stressbucket1 · 07/10/2017 12:16

If anyone is after a unicorn Fingerling they are showing as in stock for click and collect at some toys r us stores. There are some on eBay but I think they are fakes from China

RedBlu · 07/10/2017 12:25

Can’t get the mug offer to work, just keep getting delay in referral and I have tried it with various browsers and email addresses - think they might have stopped it

lionsleepstonight · 07/10/2017 12:28

Not a bargain, but if you use the code BONJOUR at check out when ordering a L'occitene advent calendar, it adds a treat box worth 9.00 for free. And you can get 3 x free samples. Might make the purchase less self indulgent if you can gift the freebie?

ladymelbourne1926 · 07/10/2017 13:29

I got the mug offer to work not long ago, but it took ages. I put everything in my basket went nearly completely though the checkout then at the last stage deleted everything form my basket (with the codes applied) then re added them and they took off the full discount.

BadgerFace · 07/10/2017 13:41

Oreo Thanks so much for the journal recommendation. My dad is very hard to buy for, plus I have been meaning to ask him for ages to write down stories about him for my girls, so the journal is perfect!

Theimpossiblegirl · 07/10/2017 13:43

Currently sitting looking at my haul. I need to update my spreadsheet before I buy anything else.

Primark do a lovely glitter palette for £4, perfect with a set of pretty brushes (Amazon Mermaid Brushes for example) for teen girls.

This is the link for the grandad journal, the grandma one should be at the bottom of the page under suggested items.

Hadiever · 07/10/2017 13:46

I can't get mugs either. Tried with 2 email addresses but says delay in processing await email. Tried again with same email and it says I have already used this offer 😢

AgnesBrownsCat · 07/10/2017 13:49

Thank you for the EB code, I ordered 6 mugs . The polka dot ones for my present box and the others are for my own collection , which doesn't really need adding to but I've been wanting the fox ones and the New York and Amsterdam ones for awhile .

AgnesBrownsCat · 07/10/2017 13:50

I have seasonal ones which I take to school and rotate accordingly .😝

GoGoGazelle · 07/10/2017 13:53

Thanks rubyslippers, have ordered the set for ds' birthday

Allhallowseve · 07/10/2017 14:08

Didn’t need any Emma bridge water mugs but why have I just gone onto the site ! Feel like I want them all now Shock
Damn all you amazing bargain hunters

dizzygirl1 · 07/10/2017 14:10

Thank you for the Lego advent calendar heads up! Not sure who it was as I zoomed off to Amazon! D'S has asked for this and has been pretty desperate for it so I'm really glad I managed to get it! 😀

ReluctantCamper · 07/10/2017 14:26

i just got a balloon helicopter for each of the DC stocking for 47p each:

balloon copter

click on the 'other sellers' on the right, as the main seller was charging for delivery.

we've had them before, they don't last but are great fun.

margaritasbythesea · 07/10/2017 14:31

Apocketfullofstars - I have never heard of send my bag. I shall look it up thanks.

PerfumeIsAMessage · 07/10/2017 15:12

Emma Bridgewater customer service are working today....I just got a reply to my stroppy email of last night (querying how come if I put a UK address in, I get all these offers, if I put a furrin address in, they are all wiped and they try to charge me 89 euro.

The reply said "when we ship abroad we charge in euro"

Er, OK then. Thanks for that useless elucidation. Hmm

Llamacorn · 07/10/2017 15:37
