Has anyone used 'very pay' before? I dont usually do store credit, but if i pay for item using very pay i can get 20% off which is amazing! It says its no interest if all paid off in 3 installments which is fine.

Yes, I have, with no problems.

Chocolate is back!

Threeboysandadog · 17/11/2022 17:32

Chocolate on offer but won’t add to my basket.

Chocolate on offer but won’t add to my basket.

If you put them in your basket at the full price, then keep checking your basket when they go back down to £2.39 the all you have to do it hit buy now. It's just worked for me.

boobybum · 17/11/2022 17:36

Twice I’ve managed to get the chocolate into my basket but can’t then checkout 😭 Is there some secret trick?

Did anyone else order football kits from footballs best 4u? I ordereda kit for my DS in early October. Still hasnt arrived, then I've received the following email today 🤦‍♀️ I'm assuming it wont be here for Christmas. Anyone else had this?

I ordered last year and this year. Last year my order didn't arrive until after Christmas, but I ordered quite late, and then there were postal issues, so although disappointing, it wasn't a surprise. The seller responded promptly to messages throughout and I was delighted with the order when it did eventually get here. This year I ordered a lot earlier and it only took about three weeks total to get here. Again, delighted with what I received.

Sorry to hear you're having trouble. Hopefully, there's still time for it to get here in time for Christmas.

Just got the chocolate thank you!!! Took a few attempts to add to basket, perfect to go with chocolate work station dd has bought dgd.

Well I don't think it's working for me at all as I checked before my previous post a moment before yours and as soon as you posted and it's still £8!

Cuwins · 17/11/2022 17:38

@AxolotlEars thanks. I will look at them if I can't find an eco one

ImHavingAnOldFriendForDinner · 17/11/2022 17:38

I got the chocolate!! Had to keep trying to add and eventually it did, thanks @Badknitter for heads up! My ds will love that.

Mrsfussypants1 · 17/11/2022 17:39

@boobybum it did that to me too, I just kept going back to it, scrolling down the list and adding to basket, took about 3 attempts before success.

MsMiaWallace · 17/11/2022 17:42

I keep trying to add but no success!

ImHavingAnOldFriendForDinner · 17/11/2022 17:43

It's gone again now.

You're one step ahead for when it nexts drops. Now it's actually in your basket, keep checking your basket, and when it drops to 2.39 then you just have to hit Buy Now

Blessedbethefruitz · 17/11/2022 17:51

@CoffeethenCrochet You sign up to the credit account, I think it does a credit check. But at checkout you can just pay in full via PayPal or whatever to get the 20% off. I did this for a switch bundle and games last month :)

It’s the cinnamon bun kits all over again Halloween Grin

Huge thanks to EHunt1 for the code for free tickets to the Country Living Christmas Fair. I was there all day and it was really, really good this year (it can vary over the years).

We were most impressed with the fact that a good 70% of stalls were local with local products. We had one rule today- only buying Scottish- to boost the local, small-businesses.

We got wonderful things including: soaps, chocolate, fudge, balsamic vinegars, skincare, teatowels, artwork, slate kitchen wear (wedding present), wooden bowls, books and fabulous locally made candles where the owner - who makes in her kitchen- will come to collect your empty, glass jar and refill it for a tenner! Presently am rejoicing in orange spice scent all over the house.

Those thinking of going this weekend it's well worth the trip (just don't pay the rip off parking- park and ride or park and walk). I'm sure the London one will also be great. Feeling a bit Christmassy now!

Only thing was, there was no coffee. Looking for a nice one for DH. He loves Paddy and Scott's Jerry Can, bit I'm loathe to pay postage for one packet.

Any suggestion/ free delivery codes?

chocolatepudandchocolatesauce · 17/11/2022 18:01

Chocolate alert. I got some!!!!! Finally!!!

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 17/11/2022 18:01

Just got the chocolate after failing a few mins ago when others got theirs.

Squ1ggle · 17/11/2022 18:02

Me too! Don't know who I'm giving the chocolate too but I'm so excited I finally got some 😂

Fartymcfart · 17/11/2022 18:05

Got the chocolate as well, that's all my nephews sorted, thanks

ColeXander · 17/11/2022 18:05

My ds asked for me to get 5 chocolates for him to give his friends. I finally succeeded in getting all 5! It’s a great value present at an amazing cost!

Beingacatbed · 17/11/2022 18:08

Still cant get the chocolate 😬must try harder!!

LittleRedYoshi · 17/11/2022 18:10

My DD has had a couple of these sets and they've become a go-to gift for me now - much nicer and more grown up than your average sticker mosaics:

On a separate note, this chocolate is driving me mad. I've seen it at offer price 5 times now, with various degrees of success adding it to my basket and going through the checkout process, but still haven't been actually able to buy the damn thing.
