@Talisin ahh dammit! I'll not get my hopes up of a further reduction then!

TreesinthePark · 02/12/2022 07:59

A good summary of discounts available here:

I just got all excited when I went on the selfridges website and the calendar came up and the option to add to bag was there! Except you can’t add it to your bag. Why not just take it down or mark as sold out.

I’m contemplating Harrods as I have a £20 voucher, but cult beauty have triple status points…

6poundshower · 02/12/2022 10:10

I got the JL, thinking I'd be really excited about it. But I'm not, not really. I hope the Bare Minerals shows up as actually that could be more fun.

Pinenu · 02/12/2022 10:15

I’m gonna hold out on CB. Today it’s triple point, tomorrow it’ll probably be a different offer.

Harrods is still showing as out of stock, but funnily enough Harvey Nichols is back in stock online but at full price. I think I'm getting obsessed 🤩.

InfinityOrUndefined · 02/12/2022 10:34

Penhaligons went to £100 last year at selfridges. I had a sample of their parfume and I didn't like it at all. Not going to get calendar even if it's goes that low this year.

Bananaman123 · 02/12/2022 11:37

Someone take my bank cards 🤦🏼‍♀️ Just impulse bought CB for £175. That’s in addition to 2 LIB, glossy box and look fantastic. I’m telling myself it’s ok because I’ll sell what I don’t want 😂

Wish HN would just reduce it already. I'm getting bored of refreshing my browsers!

JourneyToHappiness · 02/12/2022 12:27

Well that’s the Harrods problem solved!
Also wish Harvey Nichols would reduce, I really wanted that in the beginning but talked myself out of it as it was so expensive and I wouldn’t have much use for the treatments.

JourneyToHappiness · 02/12/2022 12:31

Harvey Nichols says out of stock now 😒

MidnightMeltdown · 02/12/2022 12:36

From the reviews, it looks like there were some very disappointed HN customers who clearly didn't check the sizes before buying the calendar, so you may have dodged a bullet!

Pinenu · 02/12/2022 12:41

@Bananaman123 2 LiB??! 😂

InfinityOrUndefined · 02/12/2022 13:35

Debenhams is still in stock. I had a look again but nothing interesting in it for me.

Oh wow really? I did think it not good value for money having so many treatment vouchers. I mainly wanted it for the fragrances.

Branster · 02/12/2022 15:05

My LIB AC arrived last night and the free beauty box separately today.
The box is Stylist Party Edit, worth £260 this one whichbeautyboxuk.com/?p=30242

I was really really hoping for the Summer Box or the Caroline Barnes box.

Regardless, I won't have time to indulge in opening either of those or the Flannels AC just yet, might keep them to mid December and stay away from the opening threads.

It's been a bit mad and I must be insane, was very tempted by 3 other ACs but I remained strong.

CultBeauty are a bit up themselves so I stopped looking at that one. No doubt they will resell under a different name.

I started the Liberty drop subscription not long ago and next year I will only get their AC, hopefully with enough credit by then.

I want to thank all of you for keeping thus madness going.
In particular to the poster who directed to CEW - fantastic, and to the poster who directed to wedding beauty boxes, I can't find the website right now but it is really good.

What a journey!

I wonder who buys the Chanel AC? I can only think it's for a collector as a sort of investment, or for someone utterly obsessed with No 5 or a careless husband who orders in multiples to impress the wife and his misstreses. Who wants a bunch of stickers?

InfinityOrUndefined · 02/12/2022 15:33

Do you think F&M is going to reduce the price or is it going to just disappear?

I am interested but price should be at least 50% off.

That REFY eyebrow pencil is absolutely brilliant, I’ve bought it direct before. Best one I’ve ever used.

Barnesand2020 · 02/12/2022 16:30

Well my Cult Beauty from Tik Tok arrived today - looks amazing. Just waiting on LiB also from Tik Tok, then I can delete the app…. But will reinstall next year to hopefully grab the bargains again!

Pinenu · 02/12/2022 16:58

@Barnesand2020 that’s great. My LiB from TikTok arrived out of the blue with no email or text alerts so it was a nice surprise.

How much did you manage to get CB for?

Zeeza · 02/12/2022 17:03

Mine was 135. Its my second 😬 first was full price.

That's a really good deal for CB!

I paid full price 😬. I've had a few with very good discounts this year though, so I'm not complaining.

Barnesand2020 · 02/12/2022 17:12

Pinenu - I got my CB for £144 and the LiB for £99.50. Both including delivery. I’d never used Tik Tok before but all seems grand. I would definately try again next year. Big thanks to this thread as this was how I found out about the Tik top shop!

Pinenu · 02/12/2022 17:16

They’re amazing deals you both got.

I feel the same about TikTok, can’t wait to delete it but will definitely install again for next year’s discounts (if we have any).
