It was that they have the Sol de Janeiro perfume set for £25.70 including delivery, which is cheaper than other websites where it’s being sold at £34. Not a massive bargain or glitch, but has saved money on something I wanted to buy anyway (and is more bargainous to me than spending a few pounds on something I don’t really want or need!).

does anyone know if the Valentte offer is still on? and what it is? I've been browsing their website but can't quite figure it out...

Any neu members, there's a 20% off mountain warehouse for you and a friend in the magazine this week.

I think it's on top of other offers.

I've just bought the sol de janeiro perfume set for my niece at 25.70 with free delivery, which is the cheapest I've seen it anywhere. When I was checking out they also offered me further SDJ sets st a discount price so got the bumbum body delights at £19 as well

Got mine from Lidl last year, was really good.

Re: Wrapping paper

Tgey had some good wrapping paper in Hobbycraft today. A good bargain for anyone who has downloaded the £5 free Hobbycraft voucher and not yet used it.

socks - i only got one confirmation email despite doing 2 orders. no dispatch email yet.

i got some really nice paper from whistlefish.

Primark have good quality paper £1 30 for 8 metres. Thick with a cutting guide on the reverse. Don't forget to grab your tape on a dispenser for £1 too.

I have been rather silly and buying things and not writing down what they are and who for so I'm doing an audit tonight ☺️
I'm debating a bitzee for my youngest (7)- has anyone got one yet? Are they good?

Anyone else who did the Valentte order finding they get several emails A DAY now?!!

Aww @Beckafett I have a app to track my 🎁.

My youngest tends to borrow my phone now and again so I'm scared to have an app! Trusty pen and paper hidden in my sock drawer after tonight!

Great! Thanks, kids need a few bits for their D of E expedition in half term. I rarely read the magazine!

@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz or any other valentte customers- please could you confirm the best value combos? So far I have 2 bogof refills in my cart & then a code for either a free diffuser or candle.

Do the bogofs only apply to the same scent? Many thanks in anticipation

@Beckafett the gift list app has a pin to get into it

@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz - yes, Valentte are super annoying - I unsubscribed!

@Beckafett I use Gift List app on my phone (based on recommendation from this thread last year) which is free to download and is password protected so my two haven't cracked my Christmas lists yet!

@Beckafett my four year old has a bitzee, i use it more than her though. It’s not as exciting as the advert makes it look. and it’s very much just constantly repeating the same things to get a new pet. my four year old was bored quickly unfortunately

@buckeejit - yes, the bogof for Valentte is for the same item.

I have just realised that they didn’t send me my ‘free’ diffuser.

Unfortunately, in my enthusiasm to unsubscribe from the annoying newsletter, I seem to have deleted my account with them and I have also cleared my order emails. I am annoyed with myself!

A few deals through email today:

Copycat fragrances have 60% off certain fragrances with code OCT60

Thank you to the previous poster for the Home Bargains game tip - I bought three and so far we are all enjoying Nice Buns! Also thanks for the Radio Times subscription deal, the Notino SJD deal (seems to be the hot brand for tweens) and the socks! Which I’m not really expecting 😆 The best deal I can share is a subscription to Homes and Antiques magazine that comes with a free Orla Kiely teapot, if that’s your thing. The teapot retails at £40 and the subscription is about £21.

I just managed to order (very late to the game) the 7 pack of men's stripe socks and a pair of the 2 for 10 from the woman's which came out at £10 plus £2.50 collection. Will see if they actually dispatch/turn up but always worth the try.

@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz yes and it’s very annoying. I would have bought from them again - now I think I will just unsubscribe and ignore them!

Oooh think this was me resharing this that I read a few threads ago. You are an absolute gem as I now remember my mum loved a magazine subscription I got her one year so that's sorted. Thank you!
