It's early September and we're already on thread 3 - wonder how many threads we'll get to this year! Any bets? Mine is 29!

@LikeSilver if no other takers I would love the voucher please

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 10/09/2022 16:33

@EverydayIsPJday That's annoying! I wanted a matching stocking and sack for my baby boy to go with everyone else's white trimmed ones.
Last year I somehow managed to buy 2 stockings for my DD too and didn't realise until it was too late to return one. I should have given the kids names with the same initial 😄

I have a £10 off voucher for Boden (unwanted birthday code so it's no min spend) if anyone can use it?

Theraffarian · 10/09/2022 16:53

@polmnlj I think you mean the degustabox one. I saw it mentioned elsewhere it would be available early September, but when I emailed them last week , they said not until November. I’m sure I pre ordered much earlier than that last year.

EverydayIsPJday · 10/09/2022 16:53

Haha @PissedOffNeighbour22 although I expect you may do well if you sell it now (and maybe cover buying one for your son!). I was after a H stocking although there was someone else on the stocking thread that was after a G sack for the same reason.

Friedbanana · 10/09/2022 16:56

I’d love a code @Someaddedsugar if you still have it! Thanks so much!

Crimsonbow · 10/09/2022 16:57

@Sisisimone can you claim postage back through PayPal? I've never tried that before!

polmnlj · 10/09/2022 16:57

@Theraffarian That's it! Thank you!

Ok so those of you who have a sparks card.
I have signed up and got a 10% voucher that can be used online. I'm in the app and have added it to my offers.
However when I go to pay the discount isn't showing, should it show automatically or is there somewhere I have to find a code?

As long as I have loaded the Sparks offers by clicking on them then they discount automatically. It might be different if you are a new member and somehow it doesn’t associate you with Sparks. That doesn’t make sense if you can see it in your offers with a tick to show you’ve added it, rather than just that it’s available for you.

If I’m buying food, (or probably anything, but I just buy food there apart from at the end of sales) even though I get it to scan my account barcode before any items, the running total doesn’t show the discount. That only appears at the payment stage.

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 10/09/2022 17:10

@EverydayIsPJday I stuck it on eBay last year for cost price and encountered a PITA who wanted it but didn't want to pay the postage as it would make it more expensive than b&m (no shit, Sherlock). She kept pestering me so I took the listing down.
I'm after a 'G' so it sounds like there's competition haha.

Cuwins · 10/09/2022 17:11

@Yalz thank you.
I will try to go through the checkout process and see if it works

NoWordForFluffy · 10/09/2022 18:02

@Cuwins, did what's in your basket have the Sparks symbol in the corner to show it was included in the offer?

Aldi have space squishees in but these are their own brand not squishaboo or squishmallows so I know some kids have to have a certain brand

@LemonFrosting I ordered from Turtledoves ebay outlet on the 1st, they were dispatched on the 2nd and still aren’t here yet. I’m guessing the postal strikes are to blame.

Cuwins · 10/09/2022 18:19

@NoWordForFluffy yes, I figured that's what that symbol meant

Thank you! I'm so impatient! I thought with them being dispatched first class and also from a reputable company that I might have received them by now. Oh well!

@blitzen you're very welcome!

IDontDrinkTea · 10/09/2022 19:00

So despite not receiving a thrift dispatch email, my order has just arrived. I’ve got a brand new winter coat from Hobbs with the labels still on for £15! Absolute bargain of the century and can’t thank the poster who told us about the offer enough

Cuwins · 10/09/2022 19:23

@NoWordForFluffy
I'm wondering if the app is having issues when I go through to the checkout page it offers me the option to join sparks so it's obviously not registering that I'm already a member yet the app clearly shows I am

Squ1ggle · 10/09/2022 19:30

Fossil have an extra 30% off their outlet stuff atm which is automatically applied at checkout. Not sure how long the offer is on for. If you sign up to newsletters you get a code for 15% off which does stack as well

STom2 · 10/09/2022 19:33

@FetlocksBlowingInTheWind That slipper deal is fantastic! Just ordered myself a pair. It's my birthday next month so I'm going to put them away until then as a gift to myself 😄. Couldn't think of anyone to gift them to as several family members got similar UGG slippers last year.
