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!

It took a while but I got a refund from groupon- sent them screenshots of the code not working. They offered to contact degusta themselves to
sort it but I was fed up by then!!

Someone please remind me where to buy the oonsie please. Thanks

@hiredandsqueak thanks for the Terrace Store recommendation, I'd never heard of the but just bought ds a West Ham mystery box! God knows what will be in it but it will be funny to find out Christmas morning!

I'm tempted to get one for DS for his team.

Anyone heard anything about whether or not they're worth getting? I don't want 6 mouse mats for example 😂

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?).

Ooh yes please @Waitingfordecember that would be brilliant!

RainbowZebraWarrior · 13/11/2022 12:26

Can someone help me out, please. A while ago someone recommended a sort of 'laptop tray' (think it was a sloping one with a slot for a phone / tablet) I'm thinking it would be good for DD to do homework on (she hates sitting at her desk in her bedroom and prefers to be snug on the sofa)

Headabovetheparakeet · 13/11/2022 12:29

@Soscrewed

Thanks so much for sharing the Lego discount. I wanted that exact set and this is by the far the best price I've seen it for.

If anyone is looking for the No7 ultimate beauty advent calendar it is cheaper to buy on No7 beauty than the Boots website. It's currently £102 on No7 beauty with refer a friend discount and is £140 on the Boots website.

If it’s the same recommendation I went for it was on Amazon. I can’t link to it but search for the brand Huonuo.

Aaaargh I need help, you lovely lot of vipers! I have an almost 90 years old mum to buy for who, unsurprisingly, has everything she'll ever need. So I would like to brighten her days with a regular flower delivery, as she feels so special when she receives flowers for her birthday. Can anyone recommend a supplier (preferably bargainous, so I can buy her as many as possible) cos she's worth it 😍 thank you.

I did this last year for my mum, I used bloom and wild they have been great.

£10 off with refer a friend, I will add mine to the referral board if you do decide to use them 😀

Bingo! Got it, thanks. It had a 25% off voucher that was expiring today so I'm pleased I asked.

vjg13 · 13/11/2022 12:49

Boden voucher if anyone needs it.

vjg13 · 13/11/2022 12:50

It didn't use my picture!

Just in case it helps anyone, I bought my Degustabox calendar this morning on Groupon, following the comments earlier about it being £25. I'm not sure what vouchers people are using, but I just went to Groupon and typed in degustabox, and for me on that page it then said Up to 20% off, promo code Weekend just below the pic of the calendar. I clicked Apply and then when I went to the checkout it has taken it down to £25.
Soi didn't enter a voucher code anywhere, and it doesn't say anything had expired- I just applied the offer they showed.
Ignore this if it doesn't help!

That just to buy the voucher code though- you have to go into the degusta website to redeem it to get the actual item and that’s where it said the code was expired.

Oop! I totally missed that I still need to do anything! 😳 That'll teach me for not reading...

hiredandsqueak · 13/11/2022 12:57

@Icantfindanewname I can recommend 100% Arena Flowers www.arenaflowers.com. I've had subscriptions from them all Freddies Flowers, Bloom and Wild etc but Arena Flowers puts them all to shame. I've had them for a year now, customer service brilliant as well when I had to ask them to rearrange a delivery to my sister at short notice, and hoping my dc renew the subscription for this year.

Thank you, you’re a star! Just used it for a lovely jumper and tshirt for DH.

Roomytrouser · 13/11/2022 13:01

has anyone spotted a good price for Revlon hot brush hair dryer thingies (branded ones but doesn’t have to be Revlon). Kids have started nicking mine and it’s doing my head in so am thinking that should go on the Christmas list

This might be a needle in a haystack request, but has anyone seen or bought any Christmas pyjama ‘shortie’ sets i.e. a top with shorts? DS10 doesn’t wear any form of trousers as he has sensory issues, and this year I’d love to find some Christmas themed pyjama shorts but drawing a blank so far.

Would these be any good?

IHeartKingThistle · 13/11/2022 13:08

Anyone know if it's even worth trying to get last year's Squishmallows? Didn't know the Earth one existed but geography mad DS would like it a lot!

Notherereally1 · 13/11/2022 13:10

@RainbowZebraWarrior Just a heads up, I ordered this and it was delivered in its own box, not inside an amazon box. With a picture of the item on the front. Thankfully my DD wasn't home so didn't see it but it could have spoilt the gift. Bit it's really good and definitely worth the price
