whats the bloody boden tease email about?

[BetsyBidwell]

realise i am falling STRAIGHT into their sassy marketing hands here...

Oh it is 20% off coats.

All I am getting is 20% off winter warmers too.

I agree about the perpetual offers. I don't buy unless there is at least 20% off with free postage and returns now. And even then I think the prices are high. The thing is, I am petite, and they are one of the few retailers who do a decent petite range, so I always buy a lot from them. I think I have spent a good £700 at Boden on the A/W collection purely because there are no alternative ranges in a size that fits me.

I fancy the wool skater skirt in that bright red/orange.

Worked for me then crashed. Was 20% off but on selected stock only - knitwear and coats mostly. Was hoping it would include skirts and skinnies as had my eye on those.

LifeofPo the reviews for that skirt are really bad - talk of cheap and thin fabric, creasing really easily and sticking out at an odd angle rather than being flippy and swishy. I don't know. It looks nice and I love lots of the colours and am really taken with the red. I wouldn't even conmsider it without 20% off, but as I say, its still pricey.

Are you happy with it, save for the price?

I am going to shut myself in a cupboard so I don't buy the leather jacket and the leopard ankle boots, and remind myself 20% is not much of a discount!

Thanks lifeofpo for the code

Does the discount stack though Elliptic5? If so, MCES plus the 20% off gets you 40% off which is really good if you really want the items.

Meh.

Took forever to get on the site and then it is just selected items. None of which I was looking for.
Thanks for the code LifeofPro. I shall get the little girl leggings we need.

Like everyone else, I am fatigued from the constant mail-shots and "exciting offers."

Nooooo don't tempt me, the cupboard is lovely and warm and dark

Cheers Life. I think I will give it a try. I am on first name terms with the post office staff given that I buy everything in a couple of sizes to try on, and then have to return what doesn't fit.

Well, that's rubbish. I thought it was going to be a great offer, not 20% off coats.

No, discount doesn't stack Happy. Am now getting my daughter to lock cupboard door

It's very unexciting, as you can get 20% off Boden nearly the whole year!!!

Po cross-posts with me thinking damnit, I am just going to order it. So I did. And I am hoping to wear it for work where I sit down all day. Oh well - I will give it a try! I bought a very similar skirt to this from Hobbs last year in camel. It fits and swishes and feels like a dream. It was bloody £119 mind you, but bloody hell, its lovely. I think I need to lower my expectations for the Boden one.

Oh, I thought it must be something really exciting as I can't even get on the site, presumed it was down due to so much traffic grappling for some amazing deal. I can now get on with what I'm supposed to be doing and stop sitting here refreshing the damn boden site.

Wimba - I just got a message on FB saying their site is down for maintenance at the moment. Someone on there is moaning as they took the morning off work especially for the Boden 'tease' and now it isn't working!

Thanks Dexter, seems bad timing doesn't it. It's back up now. I'm shocked someone took the morning off work for it though, they must be very disappointed!

What a load of nonsense. I'm annoyed now as I could have used a 20% off everything code over the weekend. Now there's only a handful of things on the offer and nothing I need. Has anybody got a decent code I could use?

I think MCES still works for 20% off Kosher :)
