Sorry @user1466167893 try this link www.ents24.com/uk/tour-dates/peter-kay

GroomedForSerfdom · 13/11/2022 10:08

I've used ticket factory loads, they are fine. They tend to handle the Birmingham Arenas. Try axs for London and EventimUK for Manchester

Does anyone else find their father in law completely impossible to buy for?

Isyesterdaytomorrowtoday · 13/11/2022 10:13

@Arewesureitisntbedtime I just got some on ent24 thank you!

WELCOME takes the groupon voucher for degustabox advent calendar down to £31 something, but I just cannot pay that if I know someone else has paid less. Damn you, bargain threads!!

Lurleene · 13/11/2022 10:18

Thank you @hiredandsqueak for the Terrace Store suggestion. I found the perfect gift for my nephew who I find quire tricky to buy for.

If anyone else wants to shop there I found this promo code for free delivery and it worked :) BLUEMONDAYITFC

What dates are you all getting for Peter Kay - I’m reluctant to book for 2025 because it’s so far away and he cancelled previously for undisclosed reasons

WhichWitchIsTheWitch · 13/11/2022 10:21

Just got the groupon code for the degusta calendar but it says it’s expired when I try and redeem it. Gah!! Obvs the call centre is closed. So annoying.

Scout2016 · 13/11/2022 10:28

I've used Ticket Factory without problems, as PP said they seem to be Birmingham focused.
One of the arena's websites (Utilita) even takes you to Ticket Factory for sales.

As a not chrismassy aside, is that what was NEC? So fed up with venue name changes! It's always going to be GMex and M.E.N in Manchester for most people, whatever they are technically called this week.

Room4onemore · 13/11/2022 10:28

I got Peter Kay tickets from gigs and tours, not till June 2025 though

ZIGGY911 · 13/11/2022 10:32

Thank you, I got Peter Kay tickets this morning for 2024. Been trying since Thursday

NEC is now resorts world arena and what was the NIA is now the utilita arena.

Still the NEC to me :)

I think the Echo Arena in Liverpool is now M&S Bank. Still Echo for me!

Is there anywhere that does cheaper personalised books than wonderbly? DD would love something like that

No but I used a referral code from the other thread that gave me £10 off wonderbly. Postage was still quite high though.

Let me know if you want the link but can’t find it and I’ll see if I can dig it out or request one myself (I won’t use the reward though so if anyone else has an account and wants to share theirs?).

According to an ad on FB, Oodie doing BOGOF

redjoker · 13/11/2022 10:41

I got Peter kay 2024 tickets very easily this morn. 45 each. Birmingham. Please be careful if you need a hotel though. Very few left. I had to book a Airbnb that's alittle less comfy than I'd like lol

JuniperStJames · 13/11/2022 10:42

So I tried to do the groupon degustabox deal. I bought my voucher but when I tried to immediately use it, degustabox says it has already expired! Any thoughts? Very much not a bargain for me this morning.

That’s just happened to me. The link to contact form from groupon for degistabix won’t work and the phone line is only open 9-1 weekdays. I contacted group one refund request and told them, I did say I’d rather have the product. Just waiting for a response - the initial one said a code can tske up to 72 hours to become active on the supplier website but it also said it must be used by 13/11 when I bought it so told them that…

thaegumathteth · 13/11/2022 10:49

Thanks @Puffalicious - seems quite like my Kevin the teenager so will be handy to refer to. Is CK escape an aftershave? I've been wondering if I should get ds one but no idea what kind is cool / trendy / insert other embarrassingly out of date term here.

IDontDrinkTea · 13/11/2022 11:03

There’s 30% off everything on the Boden website with code Q8U5 and it also works with sale items meaning you can get some real bargains

I’ve bought this for DH, £65 reduced down to £22.75 after the code www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/supersoft-sweatshirt-charcoal-marl-car/sty-m0624-gry

And thus for DD, £37 down to £18
www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/shaggy-lined-animal-hoodie-pink-marl-bunny/sty-b1975-pin

I couldn’t make it stack with my £10 off through the post, but you still can go through Quidco for cashback

Dogmatix34 · 13/11/2022 11:06

Picked up the £25 M&S well-being basket yesterday. It’s so lovely I’m keeping it for myself and have ordered another one as a gift. Great value and I love the smell. Thanks to the OP.

TheContinentalHotel · 13/11/2022 11:08

Does anyone have an Argos code per chance? Looking to buy 2 Revlon hair dryer volumiser brush things... unless you all tell me they are crap?? Or have a bargain alternative...?

Also Urban Decay 30% Black Friday with code VIP
Adidas code 3XC9-L2D2-GQ3D-9DG7P

I’m having the same issue! Have spoken to Groupon twice now via chat and they’ve said to contact Degustabox which I’ve just done on Facebook messenger. So frustrating!

I just contacted Degustabox via Facebook messenger with the same problem. Will let you know what they say!
