I've tried so many times to get the dot and failed miserably. I have Echo dot brain now!!!!!

Already have Prime, set up an Amazon music account and I still cant get it. It's driving me mad.

For the person after the electric toothbrush Boots have the Oral-B Pro 2 2000N on offer for £29.99. It holds it charge really well.

PinkDaydreams · 30/10/2019 07:47

B&M had cheap oral b electric toothbrushes when I was in there the other day. Can’t remember the model but it was reduced to around £20.

Elphaba17 · 30/10/2019 07:47

Tooner, I might be wrong but you don't need to set up an Amazon music account- the offer is for new subscribers to the service only so that might be the problem? You just have to be an existing prime member, and the free trial counts.

Elphaba17 · 30/10/2019 07:49

On the subject of electric toothbrushes can anyone recc any for an 8 year old? She had the kids oral B one but think she has outgrown it and the charge on it was pretty rubbish too.

ReindeerPoop · 30/10/2019 07:50

Typo have 25% off full price with SPOOK25

Betsy86 · 30/10/2019 07:50

The Green and Blacks large chocolate selection is £5.50 in Tesco again from today!! Normally £11 xx

PinkDaydreams · 30/10/2019 07:51

For the person asking for the electric toothbrush, I’ve got one of those Bluetooth ones that you link to your phone and can see where you’ve brushed and where’s been missed. Don’t waste your money on one. The charge is terrible, only lasts for approx 3 days then needs a full day to charge again. I didn’t have the heart to tell DH that it’s a gimmick and waste of money, I only wanted a standard electric brush.

Tooner · 30/10/2019 07:51

Thanks Elphaba, what do you mean 'a new subscriber to the service' Which service is that please? Eee I feel like I am being so thick about all of this.

Changingagain · 30/10/2019 07:55

I don't know about kids electric toothbrushes but for teenagers and adults I'd definitely recommend a Phillips sonicair over the oral b ones. Feels like you've had a professional clean every time. I think they're on offer an amazon regularly but not as often as the oral b ones.

MulberryPeony · 30/10/2019 07:56

Charles Tyrwhitt offer £10 off £50 spend use code WARM10

Elphaba17 · 30/10/2019 07:59

Tooner, sorry a new subscriber to the music service. Maybe if you've already signed up to that it could be the reason for it not working?

There is a long thread on this offer on HUKD that might be worth reading to see if anyone else had a similar problem too.

NoWordForFluffy · 30/10/2019 07:59

Tooner, you should've signed up for Prime and then bought the Dot. By setting up Amazon Music first you've rendered yourself ineligible for the Dot, as it's for people who've never subscribed before and by setting yourself up with it, you have already subscribed.

The G&B box is lovely. Might go and get one later on.

I have an Oral B Cross Action brush. The charge lasts about 2 weeks. It's not a bad brush.

Elphaba17 · 30/10/2019 08:03

Tooner, you could just set up a new Amazon account with a new email address and take a free prime trial out on that. You can cancel the prime trial straight away after buying the dot.

mummyof2boys30 · 30/10/2019 08:04

Some good nerf deals at argos. Some reduced and then further 20percent off using code play20

Tooner · 30/10/2019 08:06

Arghhhhh thankyou everybody for your help, it's very much appreciated? That's where I've gone wrong NoWord, I thought you had to set up the music first.

Off to set up a new Amazon account in Husband name, he has so many accounts he is totally unaware of, one more won't hurt 😂

I like your style, Tooner!

redtulip12 · 30/10/2019 08:25

@Elphaba17 I work at a dentists and we always recommend Oral-B over Philips sonicare. Gives a much better clean. You don't need to spend a fortune on one. The 2000 range would be perfect and is often on offer.

NoWordForFluffy · 30/10/2019 08:37

40FUN gives 40% off full price Lands End stuff. Might be good for slippers, whoever wanted them?

myfavouriterain · 30/10/2019 08:53

Green and black box down to £5.50 at tesco.

And selection boxes from £1

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 30/10/2019 08:54

I spent FOREVER trying to chat with Amazon customer service (kept being transferred) and this morning received this message saying they are having technical problems with the offer...

mummyof2boys30 · 30/10/2019 09:08

I set up new amazon account with month free prime. Then ordered dot via it. Had to be done on desktop tho, wouldn't work on phone for me

AgnesNaismith · 30/10/2019 09:09

20% off white company on site & free delivery with code: Y587S6

My dot is arriving today - had to use chrome as it wouldn’t work through safari!

CupCupGoose · 30/10/2019 09:17

For those having problems with the price going up after you've made your selections for colour ect, I found that just by pressing 'add to vasket' without choosing any options, worked for me.
