Thanks @allatonce99 for thread title

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

I dont think you get a full bottle of gin and prosecco do you? On product description is says just prosecco. I'm wondering whether the description is wrong?

IHeartKingThistle · 24/09/2020 13:06

What's the difference between gin and gin liqueur?

Amazonmulu · 24/09/2020 13:10

@VividImagination

I want the gin. I don’t drink gin. I don’t know anyone who drinks gin but I still want it. It’s lovely!
You are not alone 🙈 I've just ordered three hahaha.
superstar84 · 24/09/2020 13:11

Gin is a higher % alcohol, think 37% the liqueur is 20% so wonder if it's not designed for tonic etc to be added

If anyone else, like me, can't get Sainsbury's deliveries I have just noticed the 470ml Thermos Food Flasks are £13.33 at John Lewis at the moment. The Pioneer Out For Lunch ones are also on amazon in bright green for about the same price but they are a bit smaller.

Is the gin full sized in this? Looks smaller in the pictures Hmm

I managed to get the cinnamon buns! It was showing as oos but I clicked on other sellers and even though it said £10.99 was cheapest there was an option for £3.08.
It’s like a treasure finding game! Grin

XiCi · 24/09/2020 13:15

Yes says that on the rhubarb but not on the clementine Amazonmulu. Hopefully it's all ok, have ordered one anyway. Fingers crossed. It's a great deal

torthecatlady · 24/09/2020 13:16

@hoopdeloop SO tempted... are M&S good for honouring?

Gardenworm · 24/09/2020 13:16

TMSALE50 gets an extra 50% off paperchase sale items.

thebrightestcoloursfillmyhead · 24/09/2020 13:20

Great gin bargain thank you! I feel all festive now; but glad it's not delivered until November otherwise I'd drink it!

For anyone buying 3 or more and expecting fee delivery try calling M&S Food for a delivery refund. I just spoke to them and explained it's a hamper, it even states "Hamper Contents" on the website; it should therefore be free delivery. They said it's listed as wine, which is £100 basket before free delivery applies, but they agreed with me and refunded my delivery fee. The number is 0333 014 8222

@XiCi this is the photo on my order confirmation

Might be a bit niche, but if you know someone into huskies/wolves and live near North Wales, then sled dog are offering 20% off their 2.5hr ride experience (think part ride with the sled race dog team, part meet the dogs).

It says would prefer bookings by 1St November, but not that they have to be.

Salted caramel cupcake kit on Amazon for £1.87 cupcake kit

superstar84 · 24/09/2020 13:23

Thanks for the gin tip, I've ordered one of each flavour

torthecatlady · 24/09/2020 13:25

Sod it. My willpower is only so strong... 🐑 Ordered the clementine gin.

Restlessinthenorth · 24/09/2020 13:25

I presume the gun products are full sized, given the description. I've taken a screenshot just in case.

I too rang about the deliver cost she she agreed to take it off.

The lady on the phone said "wow, three bottles of gin. No judgement from me. Have a great time!". The more I remonstrated about them being for gifts, the less convincing I sounded! Haha

Yeknom · 24/09/2020 13:27

Oh thanks so much - ordered it anyway. I too have gone for the clementine!
I've also just ordered the razors and cupcakes! Kerching! x

Emma1962 · 24/09/2020 13:31

Oh really want to buy the gin but really don’t need the gin 😩

Emma1962 · 24/09/2020 13:36

Caved on the clementine

Justyou · 24/09/2020 13:38

Just hope they don’t run out of Gin & end up doing this!

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 24/09/2020 13:38

Ordered 2 of each gin. 2 for gifts and 2 for gifts for myself and bf 🤣

Justyou · 24/09/2020 13:39
