So did I - mine seems to be stuck in the system annoyingly, I will give them a call.

Grrrr, Harvey Nichols seem to have 'lost' my parcel. This must be karma for getting the perfume society box.

Brightermornings · 05/11/2025 13:25

I don’t know if anyone remembers but I was going to treat myself to a 12 day calendar if I got the job. Well readers I got the job 😃
I wanted the Harrods one but it’s oos so I’ve gone gone for all beauty 12 day calendar 😃

IDontKnowWhatYouMean · 05/11/2025 13:28

I posted this on the freebies thread, but meant to put it here:

I had told myself I was only going to do a DIY advent this year, but …..

I’ve just been to a new SNK store which opened today and they had 10 advents in stock (original, not the fragrance one), so I couldn’t resist getting one - especially as it was alongside an offer of a goodie bag (worth £400) for spending £150, plus a spin-the-wheel offer for spending over £30 where I won a full size By Terry vitamin c serum.

I’m so happy 😀

IDontKnowWhatYouMean · 05/11/2025 13:29

@Brightermornings huge congratulations! Enjoy your purchase 👏👏

Congrats. I saw an unboxing of the allbeauty calendar. It looks good.

Does anyone know - I jsut got an email from Liberty about an excellent GWP. Does it stack with the calendar?!

Strawberryfield12 · 05/11/2025 13:44

I don’t think it does @trying29 I added random things for £220 and GWP was added in the basket, no suck luck when adding their BAC

IlovePond · 05/11/2025 13:56

Congratulations @Brightermornings!

@IDontKnowWhatYouMean - what a fantastic deal!

shinny · 05/11/2025 13:57

Brightermornings congrats!

SNK purchase sounds amazing too!

Liberty GWP better not stack with AC as mine was delivered this morning ❤️

I also love Fugazzi - got it in the BD and have been using it ever since.

Congratulations @Brightermornings 🍾💐

ElizabethG81 · 05/11/2025 14:43

I’ve got a £10 off £160 spend offer in my John Lewis app, worth checking your account if anyone is thinking of getting the BAC (just checked and it works with it).

Sorry meant to tag @IDontKnowWhatYouMean to say well done on your Space NK good fortune, not @Brightermornings again (although you did deserve two hurrahs) 😁.

Caramelandsalt · 05/11/2025 17:40

My husband has just asked if I need all this advent stuff ? I said I think I have been brainwashed by a beauty cult.

Sexentric · 05/11/2025 17:56

Has anyone got the Lookfantastic one? Is it any good? I quite like the look of it. Also anyone got a discount code for it, please?

OvaHere · 05/11/2025 18:04

Some insider goss for you!

You may recall my friend kindly ordered me the HN Frag calendar along with hers using the 'special people' code. 😂Well, there was a mix up and they only sent her one. Several phone calls later she's sorted it and another is being sent out.

However she did discover from the nice man on the phone the remaining stock of the frag BAC is allegedly around 3000 units. Make whatever predictions you will with that information. 😃

I think that's quite a lot to be trying to shift with less than a month to go. I wonder if it'll be discounted soon for everyone 🤔
