@Lanique, I've chased C&C by email and their auto reply apologised for delays and says they're working as hard as possible.

I paid by Klarna, to pay after 30 days. I'm not sure I'll even have the order by then!

Lanique · 12/01/2022 09:25

Ah ok thanks @NoWordForFluffy - I won't bother chasing yet then!

Be careful with that site - son works for an independent that sells brands and says there's a lot of fakes on that site

Thanks again @boobybum for the Trespass code. Half my order arrived today and I'm very pleased with it. Had an oos for one item but at least the rest seems to be either on the way or here now 😁

Daisy829 · 12/01/2022 20:59

The fat face sale is brilliant. Got some great bits for DH and my youngest DD. I may accidentally have ordered myself a couple of things too.

Aldi had a few Lacura gifts sets reduced, the Lacura hair mask in a hessian bag with hair wrap and tangle teaser down from £9.99 to £7.99. Lacura shine bright Korean beauty skin care set down from £14.99 to £9.99, it has 4 items included which are priced individually at £4.49 and above like the watermelon moisturiser which is part of today's special deals. Nice budget friendly treat. Also worth a mention is their silk beauty pillowcase (3 different colours) at £22.99, they'd just gone out this morning and were selling quickly, I picked one up for my mum for mother's day to go with the half price no.7 skincare set I picked up in the sale.

Thanks @Daisy829 and @boobybum for the Fat Face reminder and Trespass code. Got lots of bits from Fat Face for niece and other family members and a lovely pair of boots from Trespass for me!

John Lewis have their weighted blankets down from £120 to £36 in the sale. I bought one today to stash for dd and they're lovely

Famousthehero · 13/01/2022 23:32

Olli Ella have a spin to win discount up again, if anyone was after any fancy little rattan bags/showpiece dolls

What weight is best please? I know there's a guide and it says 10% but is that true? I'm 60kg, would it be best to go for the 7 or a higher one? Also, is the price true, is the quality really worth the originally price on it?
Twinkleylight · 14/01/2022 07:25

Thanks to @Maharajah20 who linked to the Debenhams cinnamon buns for £3, I've bought a few for Jan/Feb birthdays.

Twinkleylight · 14/01/2022 07:28

Free Delivery on Orders at Debenhams, use the code BEAPPY.

The code FREEDELIVERY didn't work for me but BEAPPY did.

RainbowPhilosophy · 14/01/2022 09:15

Fossil have an extra 20% off sale and outlet. If you haven't ordered before you can sign up for 15% off your first order. This worked on sale/reduced prices before Christmas so hopefully the 15% off should still be on top of the discounted prices.

XiCi · 14/01/2022 11:25

@PinkDaydreams they had 7kg and 11kg when I bought them but think they are out of stock now of the 7kg in the coloir I bought. You are supposed to get around 10% of your body weight as a guide. I've no idea if the price is true, I'm not a John lewis employee Grin but I doubt they would be able to state it if not previously sold at that price. There's plenty of reviews on the JL from when it was full price. It's definitely much nicer than the one I bought at £50 a few years ago.

Thank you!
I've decided to leave it as not keen on the colours and am trying to have a year of not buying for the sake of it. I was looking at those two weights but couldn't decide between which one!

My Cox and Cox stuff has turned up 👍

Oooh has it? I've just emailed them again, haven't even had a response from my previous email! Shabby way to treat customers, but I live in hope of getting my orders

Elsies attic have some lovely coats on sale. Be gorgeous pressies for next year.

Check out your local Matalan. Ours had a Christmas delivery yesterday, Christmas Eve boxes reduced to £1.50. Shirt boxes reduced to £1.50. Paint your own Christmas Village £2.00. All new stock that hadn't been delivered in time for Christmas

I've had my DPD notification for Monday delivery!
EngimaticDisappearance · 14/01/2022 17:20

I went to John Lewis today and was pretty disappointed. Beauty "reduced to clear" was about 20% off, and more expensive than I'd bought in M&S before Xmas.

Their Christmas shop is still only 50% off.

M&S on the other hand had cards and Harry Potter wrap reduced to 20p, and I got a fabulous pair of burgundy leather gloves reduced from £25 to £5.50.

Ooooh I'm going to our local Matalan tomorrow so hopefully they'll have had a similar delivery!
Martinisarebetterdirty · 15/01/2022 08:44

The net a porter beauty advent calendar is now half price. Still expensive but worth a lot and the contents look good (may have bought one for myself)
