Nope not ridiculous, I get it. I often have decent S&G offers on my Advantage card but I've never tried any of the range because something about the name really puts me off! 😵‍💫😆

Meant to add I'd save a bargain calendar for January, something to cheer up a quiet month.

Can I ask what advents are still around for Jadvent, I had ordered Debenhams and it’s now been cancelled so need to find another.

Imperfect Boots 24 day for £130. All products there but not all outer packaging - whatever that means.

I noticed that @OvaHere - I thought the price was a bit cheeky as perfect ones had been available for 20% off a couple of weeks ago.

Not in the same league as Debenhams and other a/cs, @MrsBnow12 but I picked up the Soap and Glory one for £24 in Boots yesterday and there are a few Ted Baker ones knocking around in-store too.

The Just My Look one seems to still be around too.

Has anyone ordered from them and are they a reputable company? Any codes available? Thanks

@MrsBnow12 - the Rituals wreath is available at LF and code: 40PLUS brings it down to £77.45:

Clarins 12 day is still available too:

@IlovePond i keep looking at the just my look one. It did have £3 off it for BF but has gone back to full price. I'm not sure why I'm eager to get another 🤣 I guess we're all just obsessed 💁🏻‍♀️ I keep looking at the Next premium one too. I'm wondering if that'll go in the boxing day sale 🤔

does anyone remember if space or liberty did a GWP at all over the next week or two? I want to get a couple of Diptyque candles for over Christmas but because they are normally excluded from discounts I would hold off for a GWP if anyone thought one was to come anytime soon x

Liberty sent an email out this morning for a free Sapin candle with £120 Diptyque spend. I think it's only a mini one though.

Not sure whether to expect a general gwp. I feel one from SNK is more likely but also think they could leave it to Jan to try and get everyone to spend when they've had enough of spending. 😄

I still sort of regret not getting GlossyBox @JoRaRaRa - I really like some of the things in JML, but not at that price!

Harrods 12 day Hair and Body calendar is back in stock 💚

SpaceNk fragrance calendar now has 25% off, making it now £120 🤑

I really regret not getting the Kiko one 😭

25% off SNK Fragrance Calendar, now £120

I’m toying with the Clarins 12 day one. But I definitely didn’t need it.

The one I really regret letting get away was the LF fragrance.

I am tempted by SpaceNK but don’t know what any of them smell like and daren’t take a chance at that price as it’s quite likely I would dislike all of them 😿

And don't forget, they're hazardous.

I was waiting for the 25% off to buy but it's only an extra €2.80 off what I paid so I'm not too traumatised by missing the extra discount 😁

😹 @OchonAgusOchonOh has your parcel arrived yet?

Re Vinted-gate, I have photos of the bag label and lots of how it looked before I sent it so have given them to Vinted. 🤞🏻I’ll let you know what they say.

To cheer myself up I ordered the Space NK fragrance AC. I had some points and a voucher so got it for £96. I don’t feel too guilty about it as I’ve never had a fragrance AC before.

It hasn't shipped yet, never mind arrived.

It's not the best curated set they've done but for £96 it's pretty good. Hope you enjoy it and get some resolution from Vinted.

25% off Spacenk advent again. Now £120

Just got an email from SpaceNK. They've shipped it!

@OchonAgusOchonOh 🤞it arrives soon

🙏

Ohh, i am tempted by SNK at £120. I might have to sleep on it🤣

@Caggie09 double points tomorrow so you've got an excuse.
