Basically 20% off Premium beauty, Fragrance and No7 all day today with code SAVE20 but try SAVE25 as well, unclear if that has limited usage or something but both codes were in the email

Added a referral code to the thread if anyone wants to try Holy drinks!

Does anyone know where we can get Touchland hand sanitiser without it costing the earth?

Thanks @Sleeposaurus

I’ve never been brave enough to use Shein or Temu as I didn’t want to give them my details but with Amazon already having them didn’t see a problem.

I’ve managed to get loads of stocking fillers, the tat I’d normally spend a small fortune on: tweezers, screwdriver sets, key rings, hair scrunchies etc, for a fraction of the price. Already low prices then with another 70% off and free delivery over £15. Absolute result.

When you ordered was it the price you paid or did you also have to pay Import Duties, Taxes or fees?

The price just seems too good to be true!

ChristmasMad1 · 14/08/2025 12:36

@Anewuser As you have ordered before, have to pay Import Duties, Taxes or fees?

Edited

I agree it looked too good to be true. The prices already looked good then when it went through to checkout it took another 70% off. No postage due to over £15.

No additional customs/tax due.

The orders show on my normal Amazon account. They are due to be delivered next Tuesday and Wednesday.

Kpop Demon hunters Derpy tiger plush 50% off with voucher (don't think it's "official merch" though)

Confusedmeanderings · 14/08/2025 13:18

Oh, I've found you all! Somehow I managed to lose touch. I've already bought a few bits from Amazon Haul to put by for Christmas and I only looked back a a few pages. 🤣

Crikey. It's now showing as £29.99 with a 50% voucher!

beetr00 · 14/08/2025 14:15

@Tooteefrootee

I wonder if it may be a result of us using "clicky links"

MN always adds their own "MN tag" to anything a clicky link directs users to.

e.g. tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21&th=1

It's a revenue thing.

@Tooteefrootee lawdy!

@beetr00 Most of the things I post come from bargain pages so it could just be that the prices go up in response to high traffic?

hopefully the prices will come back down soon… or if not this one I’m sure there will be plenty more deals on KDH before Xmas 🤞

Hi guys! I’m looking for Minecraft Lego - any sales to look out for? Will Black Friday be the best option?

Sleeposaurus · 14/08/2025 16:30

@christmasmad1 I've just placed another order from Amazon Haul. There wwew no import fees or anything and the quality is fine for stuff I ordered (stickers, paperclips, hair ties etc) definitely from China type stuff so I wouldn't get toys or clothes, but fine. I assume they are giving the discounts to get it all scaled up and running.

Thank you I was just nervous as the price is so cheap! And it looks to good to be true!

IamChipmunk · 14/08/2025 18:06

Just on the Claires giftcard discussion. My dd had £30 on two gift cards from her recent birthday. We shopped today and I was worried they wouldn't accept them but she used them no problem.
Luckily we had planned going there today anyway so I was happy we got rid of them. It was also buy 3 get 3 free on everything and they are doing an additional 15% student discount which stacked.

Did the 70% discount also apply to the second order?

I realised the exact same sleep bras I was going to buy for myself from regular Amazon at £10 were about £1.50 each on Haul (hate the name), so am getting them from there along with stocking fillers, but I’m tying myself in knots trying to sort it all out in one order to make the most of the discount 🙄

fishfingersandchipsagain · 14/08/2025 20:16

I stopped faffing and placed the Amazon Haul order. They must be losing money on it to get the business. I ordered 41 items for £25 including delivery. I ended up with an additional 10% discount when the “full price” basket got to (I think) £50, so 80% off.

Lots of good stocking fillers type stuff - teenage boys in our house so precision screwdriver set (36p), mini monacular telescope (54p), belt (32p), RFID card wallet (76p), manicure set (15p) etc (all prices after the 80% discount)

I also got things for me that I was otherwise going to buy at “normal prices”, like sleep bras, yoga shorts, drawer dividers etc.

Theimpossiblegirl · 14/08/2025 21:39

I've ordered a load of stuff I didn't know I needed from Amazon haul. Also stuff for school as I'd rather get it myself than faff about with requisition forms. Thank you for the tip off.

Choclabratwatowner88 · 14/08/2025 23:08

not so much an offer per say but found this on Asda. a taylor swift duvet set, Ordered one for dd, figured might be a great gift for some swifties.

PurrfectFloof · 15/08/2025 07:14

I can’t navigate Haul easily at all - would anyone who’s used it for stocking fillers be able to list the kinds of things they’ve bought for inspo please?!

Onemoret1me · 15/08/2025 07:17

Glad it’s not just me @PurrfectFloof i struggled to search for things too

i ordered make up sponges and brush sets and some little resin animals that my daughter loves.

I struggled to look for bits. I had to look through generic listing categories. I have bought a few bits of holiday items (travel bottles etc)

PurrfectFloof · 15/08/2025 07:45

Not just me then 😅

attached my basket below in case helpful inspo for others - all for the grand total of £11.58!
