Not sure if this has already been posted but The Works have an offer on today of 30% of a spend over £30 so effectively £9 goods for free. If you go via Top Cashback, you get a further 17% Cashback which is approximately £5 so effectively it is pretty much £30 worth of stuff for £16 (and obviously you can get a lot for your money at the Works Smile).

KIDS5 gets £5 off a £20 spend on kids clothes at matalan.

I have a £5 off £30 Lakeland code I my valid until 31st- pm me if you'd like it and I'll give it to whoever messages first

RupertsMum2 · 29/10/2017 13:35

Just to say my Lands End order has arrived and the quality is great. I used a £20 off £40 referral code on sale items and paid £23.95 inc postage for £83 (original price) of items.

ChoccyJules · 29/10/2017 14:25

The Works is messing with me, I got 8 of the '2 for £10' crafts, so £40 of stuff but it's showing as £60 - 20 = £40, ie it's making up a discount. Then I add the code and my total stays at £40. What am I doing wrong?

RupertsMum2 · 29/10/2017 14:28

I bought from the works last week and gave up trying to get the codes to work.

ChoccyJules · 29/10/2017 14:31

It looks like they won't apply the 30% off £30 spend as everything I've ordered is already on offer. £40 for 8 gifts is good though.

sideorder i'm not sure Boris would suit a unicorn. Will be interesting to see what arrives.

LostMyRubySlippers · 29/10/2017 15:19

choccy quite a lot of stuff on the works is not eligible for discount codes - things in other promotions but also other random stand alone items too. I’ve found it a bit hit & miss as there’s always a code going but you can’t always use it on the things you want. Last week I ordered a game which wasn’t eligible for any discount but I managed to get 17% cashback so was pleased with that

Catanddogmake6 · 29/10/2017 15:23

Thanks to whoever posted the magnetic tiles yesterday. They arrived and I have had a quiet afternoon as DDs played with them. Prior to this they were killing each other so well worth £11.50. Also really nice quality and very tactile.

Thisworks has 20% off their website for orders over £20 with STM17

Occitane en provence -if you spend £70 you get a bucket of treats free. Enter code TREATS at checkout.

TellMeItsNotTrue · 29/10/2017 15:43

I ordered from the works earlier, used the code to get up to 20% off £20, it took 5% off one item and 10% of the others! I wasn't impressed, supposed to be 10% off £10, 20% off £20 and 30% off £30 - they have over themselves with the UP TO though haven't they. None of my items were in deals either, I know codes generally exclude deals on the works

Ah well, 10% off, free delivery and hopefully cashback too because I used the code Topcashback published so should be accepted

Dolceandgabbana14 · 29/10/2017 15:46

Catanddogmake6 Where did you order them from? I remember seeing the post yesterday and thought they might be good for DS but I can't remember where they were from! Do you have a link at all?

Wiifitmama · 29/10/2017 15:50

@slithytove I am a regular pact user and can tell you about the packaging. The brown envelope it comes in is just packaging - the one with your name and address on. You can open that. Inside that is a vacuum type pouch brown) with the name of the coffee on the front and the roasting date. This is what the coffee is contained within - if you open that (by cutting across the top - it then has a zip seal bit) you will be able to actually see/touch the coffee inside. So if this is a gift, don't do that!

For anyone else who has not ordered, I love love love PACT - I have a regular subscription with them and have done since they first set up. If anyone would like to use my code, I would be very happy!

@BeaLola how about one of those colour changing moon lamps?

Sixp · 29/10/2017 16:03

wiifitmama I have just used your Pact code, thanks. The coffee looks great and I have heard such good things from everyone else on this thread! My referral is www.pactcoffee.com/sign-up?voucher=JOANNA-ABB248 if anyone wants a 250g bag of yummy coffee for £1.95 delivered!

Sixp · 29/10/2017 16:04

Oh dear, I’ve just realised I should have used the referral thread. I am off to look for it ...

LostMyRubySlippers · 29/10/2017 16:04

Had an order arrive from toys for a pound yesterday. First time I’ve used them but really pleased with it- mainly Star Wars stuff for stocking fillers/ party presents but all looks like it cost more & for £1 per item can’t really go wrong!

ReindeerPoop · 29/10/2017 16:13

Lynx sets reduced to £2.99 Superdrug might be good for teenage boys?

ForeverTuesdayMorning · 29/10/2017 16:26

I've had an email from Groupon saying that today is the last day to get a £10 Starbucks voucher for £5. The red cups are coming so be quick!

redtulip12 · 29/10/2017 16:30

Hype are doing one of their secret sales again today. Google hype secret sales. I got 3 back packs for £27. Also used a 15% student discount code from UNiDAYS.

onedayatatime73 · 29/10/2017 16:50

I need to buy 26 choc selection boxes for children. The cheapest I can find is £1 each. Anyone know anywhere for Bogof?

Catanddogmake6 · 29/10/2017 17:34

Dolce it was this one at Amazon. However at the moment it is only showing as 15% off not 50% off - although that might be because I have already bought one.

Dolceandgabbana14 · 29/10/2017 17:42

Thanks Catanddog. It's 15% off now for me as well, so you got a bargain there! I'll pop it in my basket and watch to see if it comes down again. Fingers crossed...

butmumineedit · 29/10/2017 17:51

Onedayatatime look at Home bargains they often do the small ones for 75p each, it’s where we get them from for our school .
