Just a reminder you can watch the thread by clicking on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first message. It’s much easier for everyone than so many place marking every time which can use up a fair chunk of each thread to scroll through Thanks

Thanks for the heads up on the Seasalt sale @iggyace. I've just found this code that works with sale items WCM-0PP for free standard postage.

BicycleMadeForTwo · 19/08/2020 23:07

@WisestIsShe If you search The Somerset Toiletry and it should come up. Need to have the ‘The’ at the start

WisestIsShe · 19/08/2020 23:11

Thanks @BicycleMadeForTwo. I didn't realise I'd missed the the. You'd think their search could manage without it! Off to have a look.

FrolickingLemon · 19/08/2020 23:20

Yeah I found it weird that it doesn't come up under somerset. It has to have The at the beginning. Hope you find something!

Niche but...
If anyone has a Nintendo Switch (and Zelda: Breath of the Wild), Nintendo has re-released all the older Amiibos that give extras when you use them in the game - lots are rare or hard to find at not inflated prices but you can finally pre-order them again on the official site for the original RRP while stocks last

@TheHalloweenFairy

Gah! I’m about to give up on the John Lewis code! Just cannot get it to work even though I’m signed in and signed up. Grrr

Sarah Raven currently have code AU20BB for free p&p valid til 1st November - @runningpink some lovely garden gifts and it spring bulbs?

You star, thank you! I’ve been after one of her gorgeous little vases for ages but refused to pay £4.95 P&P for a £6.95 vase!
Jfw82 · 20/08/2020 06:36

On the JL thing I was trying to get my mum to order something for me and it wasn't working when I look on her account on her rewards she has a 20% off womenswear that I don't have showing on mine but no home code so perhaps not available on all accounts

Joules code AUGUST10 takes 10% off including sale stuff

UselessInDisguise · 20/08/2020 06:48

Hello, can I ask about topcashbask? I did sign up but got bamboozled when selectingthe premium option it tells me they would take a fee? Is this the one you all are using?

Elskerdeg · 20/08/2020 07:02

@UselessInDisguise
The free version gives you cashback, the premium gives you more cashback as it gives a higher percentage for each shop. So if you buy loads, the maths might work out for you, but most people just use the free one. However I think you start with a free trial of premium, or at least you did when I signed up.

UselessInDisguise · 20/08/2020 07:09

@Elskerdeg thanks! I was abit disappointed to see there was a fee but that makes sense, thanks

Trumpton · 20/08/2020 07:18

Thank you for the Sarah Raven code AU20BB for free p&p .

@BunnyBerries. Thank you for the Nintendo link, 2 more presents for hard to buy for teenage sons!

Mumto3thatsme · 20/08/2020 08:06

Some great reductions in The Entertainer sale

NoWordForFluffy · 20/08/2020 08:07

@UselessInDisguise, I have the premium version. I don't notice paying the fee as it comes out of the cash back. As I religiously swap all utilities etc as soon as I'm able, I make a fair bit from there. Plus the little bits on every day shopping.

Isadora2007 · 20/08/2020 08:34

If anyone else gets an unwanted velvetiser code I would be really greatful- pregnant DD is impossible to buy for and she has a love of hot chocolate so it would be ideal for her.

I am a student (nurse! For my sins) and always happy to get people codes for sites if they like- pm me.

TheGriffle · 20/08/2020 08:45

I pay the fee for Topcashback too. I joined last year when they had that Lego advent calendar deal. I’ve had £60ish paid out so far this year with another £50ish pending. So not too shabby for things I would have been buying anyway.

The first lot of cash back I pulled out paid for my dd to live her best life in Primark! 🤣

MissRainbowBrite · 20/08/2020 08:46

@Suzanne12 Schleich animals are rarely discounted. You're best to keep an eye out for Smyths who do a 3 for 2 on them occasionally or 2 good websites to use are Wonderland Models and Www.toysandlearning.co.uk
Both sites have them discounted but charge postage.

Whymustyoubringinthebirds · 20/08/2020 08:48

Neom are doing a mystery box for £75 worth £145

If you are a new customer then this will get you 15% off this aswell

fbuy.me/v/katie_7858

Or if you sign up to the mailing list that gives you a code for 10% off

Anydreamwilldo12 · 20/08/2020 08:50

I managed to get the JL code to work on their own brand £6 bath sheets (bought for ds to take to Uni) It strangely only took £6 off but I was happy with that.

Luxplus · 20/08/2020 09:37

I have a 15 pound off the velvetiser with code VELI15OFF
not a lot but hope it helps someone

WickedEmoji · 20/08/2020 09:40

Does someone have the link to the 10 pound jelly bean jar mentioned on the other thread, please?

recklessgran · 20/08/2020 09:41

Anyone still having trouble with the JL code who might have missed my previous post. I spoke to customer services about the code not working and they say that they are aware of some issues with the MYHOME code. They said that if you e-mail customer services they will refund the £10 to your payment method for any orders where the code wouldn't work. [I haven't tried this myself as I did finally manage to get it to work for me after numerous attempts!]

Mumto3thatsme · 20/08/2020 09:47

Just had my Lisa Angel delivery arrived, I’m really impressed, it all came so nicely packaged with Material Gift bags for each item (except The handbag).
Thanks for that recommendation ❤️
