@Hophop26

Was there a discount on the seasalt coats others were looking at?? After standing in the rain queuing until he socially distanced one at a time queue at school drop off I need a longer coat!

They are on Blue Light Card discounts if you have one

@EvilHerbivore

Glad you found something nice 

@PinkDaydreams

Here is the store in eBay, I think it's £15 minimum spend. Code POCKET20 should get 20% off even the sale prices at Regatta, eg you could get a Lleyton quilted men's jacket/coat for under £20.

Oh wow just seen there is an offer for £10 off an over £79 spend at the Regatta eBay store and it stacks with the 20% off code just tried and it works!

@BunnyBerries I had indeed got the wrong Ebay shop! Thank you so much for updating with the correct one :)

Well my free pants from On That Ass arrived but I’m majorly unimpressed because they’re all mouldy! Have just sent a stroppy email to them saying I was going to take out a subscription but I don’t think I’ll bother now as they send you mouldy pants in the post.

If you top up your amazon account with £50 using a visa card you get 2% back (75p) plus an additional £5 bonus voucher. Better than nothing if you know you will spend it anyway.

visa offer here

I've had 2 green and gold boxes from Look Fantastic and 1 pink. I really like the pink box but not too fussed about the contents of the other 2

I can't see that anywhere online Bunnies?

Quidco have 30/ cashback at Gap today only.

Look underneath the Buy now to see the Regatta offer, it applies automatically

Not Christmas as I need to buy dsis a present for her birthday this month, but, on one of these threads someone posted a site that had good prices on Orla Keily and I forgot to bookmark it. If anyone else remembers the site could they give me a heads up please?

Thank you for the ps4 advice. I will check cex and keep an eye on amazon. Not sure if we will be able to hang on until the ps5 comes out but that would be handy price wise.

My look fantastic box arrived and I got three purple boxes.

Has anybody heard more about the smyths sale? just wondered if it had been confirmed not to be going ahead I need a few big Lego sets and that's normally cheapest way.

beer52 have a deal on where you get a free case of beer and a snack, just pay the postage of £5.95. It is a subscription service so remember to cancel after.

John Lewis code on Lego 15% off if spend £85 or more and 20% off over £200

Have to be signed in with my JL account and is single use - not sure if will be for all accounts....

I ordered a tie dye kit for a Christmas present from Amazon without realising it was coming from China . It has arrived but is too battered to give as a present .
I have open a dispute but am so cross with myself for not realising !

I got a pink look fantastic box - 1 of those tubes is toothpaste!

I don't want toothpaste in a beauty box!

@Jfw82 - thanks for posting the Lego code. I think it might be account specific as it doesn’t show up in my rewards section.

Annoyingly it had let me use it and had applied it but then as the payment was going through I got a ‘technical difficulties’ webpage. On retrying it now doesn’t work! I wonder if they’ve realised a glitch and changed it.

Most annoying for me must say! Hope it works for others.

My Zaavi mystery bundle has arrived and I'm very pleased with it. I'll try and attach photos. It contained
1x hoodie,
1x RoboCop t
1x fantastic beasts t
1x toy story t
2x transformers t
4x some kind of gaming thing s.
There's a mix of colours and I'm sure DB and DS will like them.

And one more

@Jfw82 thank you for the John Lewis code it worked for me 20% off!

JFw82 apologies for tagging you in my moan post!

The code has now worked for me! Many many thanks as you’ve saved me nearly £50 and that’s nearly all my 2 DS Christmas done now!
