Does anyone know how the £10 Amazon credit gets applied? Is it automatic or does it come via email or something? They do like to make these things as difficult as possible, don't they?

Has anyone got any good ideas from all these Amazon bargains on what to use in homemade advent calendar parcels? Last year I used a Melissa and Doug stamp set and sweets which was great. Don't want to miss out on some good things while Amazon is going crazy prices!

@fantastaballs thanks I’ll look that up. I follow one called U.K. deals and giveaways which is pretty good too.

I remember last year it being a pain in the arse! I have given up this year as struggling to find gifts that will be useful. Last year I remember spending £10 on teabags to get the £10 credit

I got this email as soon as I brought something. I had to confirm and then received an another email saying it’s ready to use on prime day

Thanks so much @sorryiasked I added two of the Sketchy games to my delivery :-)

Thanks Tfutcher I'll have a look

PinkDaydreams sounds very much like something I would do!

Happy 200 days to go!

Girls make up kit kit reduced to £13.50 and eligible for small business credit.

Interestingly if you search jaques of London some of their items are coming up as eligible for small business, but doesn't show if you go via their store. These lacing beads are lovely and half price.

The wooden disney sets have gone to clearance in tesco. I picked up the wooden cinderella coach and figures for £10 today x they also had sets of 4 figures for £5.

Cath Kidston has a pretty good sale on at the moment, up to 50% off

@Cherryrainbow thanks for the disney tip! Sadly none in my local tesco but will look out for them now that they've caught my eye!
