Have you contacted them to ask for a refund? I would probably do a PayPal dispute if you haven't heard anything within 5 working days

My local regatta store had a up to 70% off summer sale.

I managed to get some thermal tops for my grandad should have been £35 for £10.49

Looks like it's on their website too

My original party bag refund came through within 24 hours. Was a little peeved though that some of my items were substituted for cheaper alternatives (schleich t rex for example subbed for something else) they didn't refund me for those but said 'they thought something arriving was better than nothing' true...but I wasn't pleased paying schleich prices for them 🤷🏼 all sorted now with another partial refund but seemed abit cheeky to me.

I received my Original Party Bag order today. I have a few things missing, and know others did too. Did you automatically get a refund, or did you have to contact them? On the delivery email it says these missing items should be there, so I'm presuming I'll have to contact them.

Otherwise though, I'm thrilled with all the bargains!

I'm in the same boat. I ordered 24 things. Three were wrong and five were missing. I've emailed and they're refunding me for the missing items (hopefully soon) and I've reluctantly agreed to keep the incorrect ones. Still a good bargain overall.

I ordered 40 items for £65 from party bag on 21st August. I've received nothing, they've taken payment and I have the initial 2 emails confirming but no idea when they will be shipped or what I will receive

NoDairyNoProblem · 27/08/2022 15:58

Thanks @Mustangsallyis, it’s a great bargain. Hopefully mine arrives soon.

Just looked at the harumika on Bargain Max and it’s brilliant price. Is that a site people have used before? M always a bit wary of ordering from places I haven’t heard off!!

I've ordered before and it came very fast! I ordered the collectors dobble set for my daughters birthday which came in a large tin, 2 sets of dobble. Its still on the website and in the 25% off too.

Garmjn Vivifit Jr 3s are only £44.99 on amazon at the moment which is a pretty good price!

My DD got given that set for her 1st birthday and still plays with it now aged 4. Great price!

I've followed these threads for a few years but am not usually very good at bargain hunting myself! This looks a good deal on Amazon - sorry for rubbish link: MEGA BLOKS ABC Learning Train Building Set, 60 Pieces Including Alphabet Blocks and 3 Wheel Bases, Toy Gift Set for Ages 1+, DXH35 amzn.eu/d/3Wmz9PN

Sorry my lost post was about the mega blocks set @Worriedmum40284 posted. I’m not just talking to myself… it’s not that close to Christmas! 😂

You can now use Tesco Club card vouchers to buy fitibt if anyone is looking for a Fitbit. 3 x voucher value too. I'm thinking of getting a kids one for DD but not sure if she's a bit too young. Great value though if you have points to use 😊

They post out really quickly too. Really pleased to get them for free.

Just ordered these Bath Noodles for my DH who loves his baths, they come in 3 different ‘flavours’ 😀

Brogues · 27/08/2022 17:39

I just saw those advertised today @Mipe they look good.

HedgerowRobin · 27/08/2022 17:42

@nocutsnobuttsnococonuts thanks so much for the Harumika bargain! Just ordered 2 sets for my sewing mad niece (same age as your DD) - came to £9.60 with both discounts and free postage!

Thank you for the Sour Cherry link, I'd never heard of them but love quirky stuff and have placed an order..... unfortunately as a present to myself which is always the danger of these threads! 😂

Motherofplants · 27/08/2022 18:24

Blade and Rose have 3 for £10 on a fair few styles right now :) It's in the sale section of their website x

Isonthecase · 27/08/2022 18:34

@Motherofplants oh dear, I love their clothes, this could get expensive 🤣

Sour Cherry have a £6 sale on today - cute but fairly niche jewellery

www.sourcherry.co.uk/collections/6-saturday?mc_cid=8faa244856&mc_eid=4175964d56

A lot of those use the same charms as Earrings by Amy and she sells hers for £2.50.
I've bought quite a few of her earrings and she packages them up cutely as well. Plus small business!

UrbanMage · 27/08/2022 19:31

Also, I didn't mean to sound like it was being bitchy @BeGoneDom. Sorry if it came across that way. 😫

BeGoneDom · 27/08/2022 19:41

Not at all! £2.50 is a definite bargain - I've not heard of Earrings by Amy before, will have to take a look.

Openmouthinsertfood · 27/08/2022 20:03

Just to let you know, I bought a £6.00 pair of earrings from Sour Cherry and after postage and tax they came to £10.08!
