Pity theres not one spoiler 😍

Ive just looked. They want a screenshot sending to look into it. I sent 3 as did 3 orders. I had lost track of what id ordered.
It's hard to keep track of your points. I looked at cult points. I have over 50 but thats all it says. How much over 50 I dont know. And it doesn't show how many added and when so you can keep track. I got drawn into the offers etc and have spent a fortune this month 😳 so I want the points they promised. I screenshot the receipt from my account online.
Im trying to resist the offers on here as have enough products to last me until Dec 2028 im sure. 😍
Ill let you know when they reply. Ive added screenshot of one receipt that I sent which shows the £5. I think once its added they should send an email confirmation 👍

I sent screenshots too. That way you can prove it without going back and forth with them. I do find their Cs to be hard work 😮‍💨

Thank you - I've sent off my screenshot too, hopefully they send us all our £5s!

I’ve also not had my £5. Their customer service is unhelpful and a bit rude imo

I think some people might have had the £5 credit added without realising. I did 2 orders and got tge £5 credit once they'd been dispatched, I didn't need to wait until the 19th.

They've said they'll credit me £5 but are still calling it a goodwill gesture. I've told them how little goodwill that is generating in me, given it's money they owed me! It's only £5, it really doesn't matter, but the audacity to tell me that they're doing it because they're so nice and generous.

I’m holding out for Trinny BF - last year was 40% apparently.

How many orders made you qualify for £5 at CB?

I don't know about anyone else but I'm feeling overwhelmed every time I look at my email inbox today. So many deals. The sheer volume is actually tempering my usual impulsiveness.

I'm aiming not to buy anything unless it's something I need or the offer is better than all year round 20-25% discounts.

So far I've bought

Kerastase serum and some eye patches from Amazon
A necklace from Missoma at 40% off
MAC lipstick - free with Boots points

Oooo a necklace 😍 what an absolute treat 🩷

So far today I've bought
The OK mystery beauty box
Chloe le Parfum 10ml and maybelline eye brow gel from debenhams - I don't normally use maybelline but I needed to get my order to £25 or pay for delivery. I'll give it a try 💁🏻‍♀️
Paid vets bill 😮‍💨
Bought a blouse and sequin skirt from Tu
A faux leather skirt from primark
And a velvet jacket and faux leather skirt from next. (I ordered the next one and then saw the primark one for half the price, so I'm going to compare them so one of them will go back).

My focus has moved from beauty to clothing now 🙈🤣 But I am returning a jacket skirt coord to m&s and a finery dress so it's balanced 😇

Sorry I started off with beauty purchases and then everything got thrown in, including the vet bill 🙈🤣

I've just been deleting the emails except the OK one this morning. I find enough things to buy on my own without extra help 🤣

@OvaHere which eye patches, please? I actually need some.

Grace and Stella. They have some large multi packs. I got 24 pairs for about £10. They also have some 48 packs for about £15

This was last night so assuming pricing hasn't changed today.

Thanks, I’ll have a look! Never heard about this brand.

Earlier this year i went through my emails and unsubscribed to alot of companies. You end up bombarded with offers, and i was just too much🙈
I only want a few bits when BF starts, KS Goat Milk, Rare beauty perfume, Ouai body cream and the CEW beauty box (only if goes down from £175) Last year SNK did 25% off, then a couple of days later an extra 10%, so hoping for that again.

I had some in a beauty box and used them up recently. Thought they were decent. Not my favourite but the price seemed a good deal.

I did 3 separate orders and got a £5 credit for each one. Hopefully

Mines a space nk advent that I haven't wanted for ages but now it looks good! If they reduce at a later date ill rebuy and return x

Thanks @Doglover73. I have placed one order so not sure if I qualified for one.
I can see £30 worth of vouchers expired on my account which I think could be recycle me vouchers, I tried to find out from them but no luck. CB system around vouchers and points is super confusing.

I’ve been holding pretty strong on Black Friday deals. So far I’ve only bought a shampoo/conditioner set from Amazon (plus some coloured art pencils).

I told myself absolutely no more skincare purchases but I’m wavering, partly because between them DD and my mum have had half of the Boots skincare advent I opened last week. Also Skinsider has lots of APLB products on offer - I really like their cleansing balm and I tried a sheet mask earlier this week and my skin looked so good the next day, so now I want the serum in that mask.

I reckon I’ll break and order something later this evening once I’ve had a glass or two of wine 😄

Cult beauty have given me my £5 credit now, so it's definitely worth chasing customer services if you haven't already!

@Beautydiva if you earned a £5 you'll be able to see it on your order confirmation saved in the app, worth checking there

Those who got the clarins freebies, have you seen the bath and shower concentrate!!! It's so teeny tiny 🤣 I might just be able to do my left leg with it 🤣

Thank you. I just went and checked and I’m meant to have it!
