My New Years resolution was to not buy any new clothes for myself this year, charity shop, eBay only. However I have just got a purple Borg zipped hoodie in the Saltrock Sale £18 reduced from £60 and an extra 20% with GETSRK20. It’s as good a sale I’ve seen there for a long time.

Code isn't working for me

Threeboysandadog · 13/01/2023 22:45

@Cuwins sorry it’s GETSRK20

@Cuwins sorry it’s GETSRK20

That's the same as below, not sure if you meant that?

Anyone who likes to buy sale items from frugi- I would be a little cautious at the moment. Another company that seem to have overloaded themselves rather. Seems in the middle of big changes including a site move they launched a big sale. Resulting issues with sending parcels out are meaning big delays and computer issues meaning orders are unable to be fully completed and items being refunded without customers knowing until the parcel arrives- frustrating as I have now paid postage for 1 swimsuit which I would never have done had I known the other items weren't actually in stock!

QuiltedBear · 14/01/2023 07:30

I’ve had the same experience as @Cuwins . I paid via PayPal so have had notification of a refund - but no notification from Frugi at all (and no parcel as yet either). My sale items from Babipur on the other hand arrived promptly and completely.

Some great bargains there, thank you. Code worked for me.

Estella Bartlett has a great sale on at the moment. Some lovely jewellery pieces at half price.

The saltrock code worked for me too. Thank you.

Monsoon have a lot of dresses £40 and under (just in case it's time for you to have a treat). Some very wearable shirt dresses. It's not all party wear.

Cuwins · 14/01/2023 10:07

Code working for me too this morning! Not sure if I was being blonde last night or what. Thanks

mac1974 · 14/01/2023 10:16

@Threeboysandadog thanks for the Saltrock heads up. I got my mum a Borg lined hoodie from there a couple of christmases ago so I've ordered her the purple one and a gorgeous blue campervan hoodie for my bro. I've had quite a lot of stuff from them in the past & it's been brilliant quality.

mumonthehill · 14/01/2023 11:36

Slaltrock code worked for me! Also Anthropologie, where i got a dress for myself!

QOD · 14/01/2023 12:01

Still waiting for bloody smashed grapes

NoWordForFluffy · 14/01/2023 12:15

PayPal refunded me on SG this week. They're a total shambles!

MissMarplesbag · 14/01/2023 13:47

Went to boots this am and all their Christmas gifts were 50%. I didn't have much time to browse but grabbed a nandos grill pan gift set for £10 & a large dove set for £6. I'll go back on Monday for a proper look around.

Pompomagogo · 14/01/2023 15:17

Thank you so much for all the bargains. I've shopped the Anthro sale, such bargains. I'll also take a look at Saltrock.

I got to go to the actual shops yesterday..its worth taking a look in Superdrug at their clearance. I got 2 really sweet sterling silver necklaces with little dream catches on them reduced from £10 to £1, great for tween/teen birthdays. Also got 20p cards from.M&S and a set of 3 room sprays, which smell amazing from £7.50 to £2.50

Someaddedsugar · 14/01/2023 18:13

Paperchase had 10 cards for £5 in their sale today. I managed to get cards for Father's Day, Mother's Day and family birthdays - should have cost nearly £45 if I'd bought them full price - one has a label on for £7.50!

user143677433 · 14/01/2023 22:04

I went IRL shopping today at it was rubbish. But on the plus side two of my parcels from Anthro arrived and I am so pleased. Thanks again to the person who suggested them, particularly as I would never have guessed they did plus size clothing! I got a couple of lovely dresses (Somerset) a jacket, a couple of tops and some jewellery- all for me but most with 70% off and then code EXTRA30 for additional discount. I also got mugs, vases, candles and jewellery for birthdays through the year. All much better quality than I would have expected for the price. All female relatives now sorted!

Anybody know the cheapest way to buy a new ipad 2022 model? Usual Very codes etc not available.

AnotherOne4 · 15/01/2023 19:27

Did anyone buy a BuyAGift voucher back in November time (when they were on offer)?
Just trying to redeem mine, and it won't let me. Wondering if anyone else has had trouble.

snowmanshoes · 15/01/2023 22:03

some great boots on offer in the river island sale - quite a variety!

Are you in a hurry for it? If you can afford to wait in June I saw them price drop on very. I managed to get 3 iPads for £700

Theraffarian · 16/01/2023 07:50

@AnotherOne4 oh no , I hope they go through , I bought a couple of afternoon tea for two for £11 each as presents , although I can’t remember if that was October or November , that will be embarrassing if they don’t work , and cost me a fair bit if I have to buy them at full price 🙀

AnotherOne4 · 16/01/2023 08:11

@FetlocksBlowingInTheWind and @Theraffarian Ive emailed them and asked. I’ll let you know if I hear back.

I got the afternoon teas as well. So was really looking forward to using it.
