Thread 11 “i'm jealous of your sloth fingerling!!” “don't read that too quickly!”

[Reastie]

Welcome one and all, see post two for links.

Any referral links to go on this separate thread please

I've had a cancellation email from Currys for the instax camera as well. Really disappointed. I checked earlier on and they were still showing it as in stock on their website! They were obviously allowing people to buy it long after it was actually out of stock...not on, Currys. :(

I've been following the thread religiously and got some great ideas for presents. I've got a link for £10 off orders of £40 on Joules - I think it can be used 4 times and gives me a 15% discount. Hope it might be helpful for someone.

@AgnesBrownsCat word of warning, I ordered those toothbrush timers months ago and they never arrived

@Personwithnoname I successfully used referral code with a brewery tour and steam train as well as Thames boat trip and a family day out. The first two were covered by the £15 referral voucher while the latter two required extra payment.

Sorry you’re having problems with it. If I find something else that accepts voucher I will let you know.

My toothbrush timers arrived this week, took 3 weeks.

Amazon have quite a few annuals for £3.49 incase you don't need 2 :)

Also Guinness book of records animal and gamer editions for £4.99 each. :)

@FridgeCut aaah I'm going to chase mine then, I've already put a thing on Amazon saying they've not arrived. It's nearer 8 weeks for me though.

@personwithnoname I just tried the brewery voucher and it wouldn't work for me either. I will keep looking for more deals about £15 so you can make the most of the voucher. If you end up spending money on something you don't really need or want just because of a free credit it no longer becomes a bargain so I am determined to find you a deal! If you let me know what region you live in - on here or by DM - I am happy to keep looking as I have a few Buyagift vouchers to use myself.

I have had mixed success in the past with amazon market place, I am always surprised when things turn up! Amazon are always very good at refunding.

Amazon do have the annuals at £3.50 too but not free delivery if your not on prime.

Now received my cancellation email for the camera.
This is the second time this month this has happened with Currys. I ordered a laptop in store for my son going to Uni, as they had no stock in the branch, advised to collect a few days later from the store, but order was cancelled, only informed once I'd driven to the store to collect it, we had to go through all the process of finding another one.
The staff told me that the computer should not have allowed the order without available stock, I sort of left the store thinking I had done something wrong! Now with the camera! Currys, it's really not good enough!!

Banana Republic have a pretty good sale on and there is an extra 25% off at the till. Also 10% cashback via TopCashback bananarepublic.gap.co.uk/browse/division.do?cid=1014613&mlink=13068072,topNavSale,visnav&clink=13068072

@RJNomore was it Bangzo Books? Seem to remember this site from a few years back

@PamelaPatricia that's very kind of you to offer. But I really don't want you spending time looking for me (blush) I was just wondering what folk had bought that worked with code. I found a more expensive spa one I can use and code seems to work. They must just have some that don't accept a code on. I'm in Scotland but have family down south I can use for too. Thanks again tho.

Yep, had my instax cancellation today from Curry's. :(

3 x cotton santa sacks with drawstring tops £1.98 plus £1 delivery!

Boo hiss, camera cancelled - that would been perfect. I hate it when they do this.

The build It Delux set is half price at ELC, £25 instead of £50. My two girls got
It for xmas last year and they love it (they're 2 and 7 now). The 10 year olds at the childminders love it too, even though it says age 3-8 on it.
Lots of extras to add to it later too, can build robotics and cars but also open ended building too.

Thank you @BanoffeePieIsMyFave and @applepinkierainbow.

Went to check out with Banoffee's code but 1 item had gone out of stock, taking me under the minimum spend. Started looking for a replacement then had unexpected guests (who are lovely, and very welcome, but still here!) So mission postponed until later...

Thankyou for the mountain warehouse code, that's ds's winter coat sorted

I think it might have been bangzo thank you! Doesn't seem to be as good bargains now.

Can someone explain the grid it thing to me? It's just a way of getting men to use a handbag and organise their stuff right...?

Not sure if it helps some of you who have had your Instar Mini order cancelled, but Boots look to be doing various colours (including the grape/purple one). Although much dearer at £59.99, they have a promotion on at moment giving you £10 worth of Advantage Card points when purchasing the Instax.

Did anyone pick up transformers in the Sainsbury's sale and remember how much they were, I picked them up but put them back and ofc now DS is desperate for them
