Liking the look of the White Company calendar. Shame the code doesn’t work online

If you sign up with White Company they frequently email 15% codes, but I don't think they're generic, they might be account-specific.

Could anyone who ordered the space nk lip cracker report back when they receive if the4 products come in their boxes? Trying to work out if I could get away with splitting 1 up for 2x nieces along with chocolate etc for Christmas or if I need to buy them one each xx

The Invisibobble Advent Calendar is £12.99 at TKMaxx:

I managed to get the John Lewis calendar last night. Thanks@IlovePond .I already had the ASOS and Look fantastic. Not sure if anyone is interested but the boots Macmillan calendar is down to £45 and the men and women's ted baker advent calendars are down to £36.80. Also some good deals on fragrances.

IlovePond · 30/10/2024 11:10

You’re welcome @Pickled21 - glad you got it!

Puravida23 · 30/10/2024 11:15

I can’t see it available here yet though.

Can I just say I love your username Smile I often, when faced with a dilemma in life ask myself, what would MR do?! And do that.

Ordered the J L box yesterday and it's out for delivery today!

Impressed with J L at the minute; my Ninja 15in1 has failed after 22 months and they are refunding, no issue at all.

I'm in the market for a gent's box or similar to break up for the Christmas stockings.

Range goes from early 20s nephew with acne to bearded older chaps, one does beard grooming, one doesn't!

All suggestions and Recs most welcome!

This one isn't bad. Most of the products are larger sizes.

@Twinsandsome there’s a video on their Instagram today of the cracker being opened and it looks like all are boxed.

hby9628 · 30/10/2024 17:56

I've caved on John Lewis. I've been watching it for a while. It looks amazing. Still some in stock. Also get a little bit off through top cash back.

Thelifeofawife · 30/10/2024 18:30

@hby9628 I got the JL one as well, I was impressed with it. And the box is much nicer than it looks, with nice sturdy drawers

Christ this is a dangerous thread 😂 I've held back on buying a beauty advent this year as I had so many GWP and edits that I filled an old Diptyque calendar with bits and bobs. But did I have the willpower to resist Jo Loves and L'occitane discounts? Of course I didn't!

ACAC2023 · 30/10/2024 18:50

Just checked my TopCashBack account and I got Cash back for the Space NK Calendar 🙂. As I was a new customer, I think it was 9% 🎉. Thanks to whoever shared the tip.

I agree. Best not to look or you will be tempted by something…….
Though if anybody spots an Elemis offer, please let me know 🙂

bizzey · 30/10/2024 18:58

JL Bb has arrived 😄😍😍!!

Now to work out what order I use all these wonderful products in !

Putting evening on my skin tonight in one go , isn't going to result in a miracle is it ? 🙏🙏 😂😂😂!

I would actually be annoyed if it's now available for £70 when all the waitlist customers paid £90. It's not even November yet. Mine arrived yesterday, really looking forward to opening it.

Also on the lookout for a good men's fragrance AC if anyone has any suggestions.

I’m so annoyed, mine tracked at £0.00. I thought I would be classed as a new customer but unsure if this is the case as I purchased something in store prior. But regardless, it should have tracked something even if not the full 9%
I’ve had to lodge a claim but apparently it can take a few months

Yes I understand it would annoy those who purchased at release. Unfortunately I think it hasn't sold well and I that is why there was a window today where people paid between £70-£85 and that included a gift with purchase

Doubleraspberry · 30/10/2024 20:59

Future discounts is a risk you have to take if you buy early. I got Glossybox ages ago and it’s been on sale for less recently, which is a bit annoying, but it happens.
