@coffeetofunction thanks for the Adidas code. Some bargains on there.

I also have 2 x 20% off M&S codes so PM me if you need one

Gustavo1 · 10/10/2019 10:55

I wonder why I’ve not had any M&S codes Sad
Have £117 worth in my basket waiting for my codes to come through.
Matalan never seem to send me anything ether so I’m grateful to the posters who put that 15% on.

SandraOhshair · 10/10/2019 11:04

I've tried the Mand S codes, I think they may have been used or dont work on sloth onesies.
Anyone got a code that will work on kids clothes?

snowmanshoes · 10/10/2019 11:06

I’ve had 20% off put on my sparks account but no codes for friends and family which I usually get? If I get any through the post I’ll put them on here.
Also ‘itsyourstory’ (kids personalised books - with their photo) have 30% off today for mental health awareness code WMHD30

Thegrandoldelf · 10/10/2019 11:15

I too would be super grateful for a M&S code. I'd like to get my DTD's their Christmas pyjamas which I make them wear all year round, waste not want Wink

SarBear1980 · 10/10/2019 11:16

Anyone who has Ocado shopping there are great 3 for 2s on stocking fillers and if you search the clearance section some nice bits of clothing from joules and fat face in there too.

Jessica78 · 10/10/2019 11:28

@hedgyhoggy All the Boden codes exclude the HP clothes, which is frankly a bit mean. And Johnnie Boden hasn't sent me a voucher now for 12 months, he's so fickle...

OatcakeCravings · 10/10/2019 11:35

Thanks for the Brett Anderson book tip, just ordered it.

Tooner · 10/10/2019 11:42

You could do this and get a £5 voucher for Marksies

You can get a voucher for £5 off a £35 spend at M&S when you recycle at least one M&S-branded item by taking it to an Oxfam shop.

Simply take an old piece of M&S clothing or soft furnishings into your local Oxfam shop, where you'll get the voucher. M&S says you'll get one for every donation you make containing its clothing.

I didn't get any voucher codes either just £5 to put on my sparks account.

TellMeItsNotTrue · 10/10/2019 11:44

Baking kit subscription, first box for only £2.99 (free postage) but its a monthly subscription so don't forget to cancel after first box

Code: FAWN299

Would be a nice activity for half term or over Christmas break

Willow4987 · 10/10/2019 11:47

@SandraOhshair they should work on kids as I ordered some baby sleeping bags with it

imsorryiasked · 10/10/2019 11:53

Can't remember who wanted the kids glitter DMs? Sale on, very few sizes and colours but you might be lucky here
Sale on adult DrMarten too.

TellMeItsNotTrue · 10/10/2019 11:54

Managed to save mum a lot 🤑 with the 20% off, thanks to @recklessgran ❤️ plus get a job sorted off my list 😊

Mum always gets the DGC and my DDad pyjamas from M&S for Christmas, not Christmas themed though, so it really adds up which means a big saving with 20% off

I'm still on a spending freeze ☹️

Hatchimals CollEGGtibles – Hatchery Nursery Playset down to £15

Sunshine196 · 10/10/2019 12:13

@imsorryiasked I was just about to post that! Its got great reviews. I've ordered one for my 5yo off her grandma. Also the entertainer have the Colleggtibles on offer.

Alltheprettyseahorses · 10/10/2019 12:18

I've got codes for HoorayHeroes personalised books if anyone would like one. I paid £27 for my sibling one in the end and it's so worth it! I've got Surprise15 of Surprise20 for 15 or 20% off. Not sure if they expire or any other details as there's no info with them.

SkintSanta · 10/10/2019 12:27

Ok but I have to post this here, because when you know you know. Look at the bargain hamper presents for DD to give to her Aunties! (She’s 1 on Saturday 😭)

Impressed with the service from Tokyo Laundry - I ordered late last night and couldn't get the free postage to work. So, as it was a couple of pounds, did the order (have been caught before thinking I'll order it later and then the offer has gone or the stock of what I want has run out etc etc) and sent an email asking them how I was supposed to get the free delivery should I want to do another order.

Was looking at my email just now - an automatic message pinged through to say that my order had been processed, moments later another one to say refund processed and moments later a response from a customer service person to say she was sorry about the technical glitch, it was supposed to happen automatically and they were having a few problems but she had refunded the amount and to contact her with any questions or issues.

So very happy with that response and if anyone else had the same problem, definitely worth contacting them about it!

imsorryiasked · 10/10/2019 12:35

No discount on the Harry Potter stuff at Boden but code V2E1 gets free delivery and a free gift (no idea what!).
Think it may be for new customers only so try a different email address if it doesn't work.

How's everyone been with the free Mentos? Had an email to say they'd been dispatched yesterday and received a card from DX today saying a signature was required, but haven't heard a knock all day! Did others' come signed for from DX or is this a different parcel I've forgotten..!

Jammiebammie · 10/10/2019 12:49

@Willow4987 thanks, I hadn’t heard how bad they were before. It was like nobody read the previous emails and everyone was saying something different, refused to escalate to a manager and only finally offered a refund when I threatened to post screenshots of all their emails on their public twitter page (I don’t even have twitter, I was getting annoyed lol)

Amazon have some good deals on atm. this scratch map less than half price. We’ve had the luckies one before and dd loves it so would be a good gift.

@imsorryiasked do you have a link to that embroidery set please? I can’t find it on amazon, just one without the hoops, which is still a good price tbf.

woodwaj · 10/10/2019 12:50

@Unihorn did you order from cox and cox? Think they are DX
