Are the shampoo and conditioner in the same draw or separate?

I assume that they should be in the same drawer.

Watched a couple of YouTube videos and the conditioner was missing in both, so I assume that Harrods have left it out of all the calendars that they've sent out so far! According to the contents listing, we should have shampoo and conditioner though.

I wonder whether they will have to send it out separately? Or provide some discount?

Thanks Midnight….I’m going to have to check contents now. Any idea which draw it should be? Or are products random?
What a pain for anyone that’s purchased!

Mine is obviously missing too…only one item in each draw.
Have you emailed customer service or phoned?

Goodness Midnight! I just hope the products aren't the same!

I haven't seen that happen before....though I did read a comment on the video that people have been missing the conditioner from the calendar.

I'm not entirely sure I will resist...four of the products that I LOVE make up the price of the calendar alone and the others look pretty enticing!

Please enable us by telling us which four 🙏

MidnightMeltdown · 12/11/2022 23:31

@SoloCat

My shampoo was in drawer 3. I've just sent them a message.

I would assume - not definite - that it would be ok but don't do them both at the same time or quickly after the other as they have to 'set your account up' if you get me. I'd give it an hour or so until the subscription is showing in your account until you buy the advent :)

I did the subscription and then it had advent calendar as a suggested offer, and at the subscriber price l so cost about the same as non subscriber but got a beauty box. Only went for one month . And got £7 top cash back on order !

I just ordered H&B. I used code 567334174491 to get it for £29.50. I also went through topcashback.

Tried that code, doesn’t recognise it . Were you emailed it?

MoriaRoseForever · 13/11/2022 01:18

I used top cash back to buy the Glossy box, along with codes.

I have never used cash back sites, but hearing people use them and get money back off them for beauty made me go for it .

So it set me automatically to the plus version, I think paying £5 a year . That gave me £9. I downgraded to free and it was then £7 back.

so seems the rate was higher with the £5 paid for service .

is it £5 a year , not a month and is it worth it ?

BrokeAsABone · 13/11/2022 07:02

@Twinsandsome @stupidannoyingtaxthing Lol well if you're sure and don't mind being £250 lighter in the wallet...😂 I really like the Murad Youth Renewal Night Cream of course, the Bio Effect EGF serum and the bottle in this one is huge, Dr Dennis Gross Lactic Firm and Bright....and I have a soft spot for Natura Bissé products. Even the first three products make up the price if I'm not mistaken.

I am going to have to think long and hard about it.

polmnlj · 13/11/2022 08:18

@MoriaRoseForever I found the code in one discussion forum. Maybe they noticed and stopped it working. It's odd code compared to the usual SAVE15 etc

HashtagShitShop · 13/11/2022 09:32

It now says on the h and b calendar that codes won't work on it to reduce it further

Help! Im trying to get the space nk gift with purchase but can’t see it in my basket with the calendar and a couple of other bits to bring the spend to £250- does this mean I’m too slow and it’s run out or is it still available?

LoveLabradors · 13/11/2022 10:57

The £250 minimum spend GWP ended several days ago. There is a £60 minimum spend GWP currently. Code MORETHAN.

It's £5/year and I've have found it to be worth it

Just saw this one on special deal today www.brandalley.co.uk/beauty/sales/beauty-advent-calendar.html

Not seen it before but looks quite good for the price with Elemis, MB. Filorga etc.

That’s last year’s Feel Unique calendar!

That is last year's Feelunique calendar. It was on sale until sometime this summer.

LookdeepintotheParka · 13/11/2022 11:31

Ah I see ! Last ditch attempt to sell them off then.....

Brody77 · 13/11/2022 12:52

Thanks @LoveLabradors . I must be more on the ball next time!

KimmySchmitt · 13/11/2022 13:30

So funny, marketing definitely works as last year's Feelunique didn't appeal to me at all, but I also saw that email from Brandalley this morning and thought this mysterious calendar looked quite good 😂 maybe it was the £50 price reduction...

Mysterious calendar 😂

I felt quite proud of myself that I recognised it. It felt like I had my fingers over the buzzer on a game show 😂

The blue No 7 one has been showing as sold out on the website for a while and not getting any further stock but there was four of these beside the till in my local Boots on Friday
