Sun £9.50 holidays are back from 5th Jan. Am a virgin Sun holiday person. Are there any tips to guarantee a good holiday?

Due to a mixture of the credit crunch, me being a mature student and DP having had an accident and not working, I am going to see if I can get a Sun holiday this year for us. Ideally we are looking at North / Mid Wales, Southern Scotland and Yorkshire. Are there any fab places to go that we should ask for? Are there any dives to be avoided at all costs? Can anyone share their experiences from years goneby? Thanks!!!

thanks

it says that you can only have one bonus word, does that mean we need to get tomorrows word before we can book it?

nappyaddict · 10/01/2009 18:34

I thought only the first word which came out was saturday was a bonus word?

J2O · 10/01/2009 19:08

Not sure, it says here there has been 2 bonus ones

nappyaddict · 10/01/2009 19:23

The one printed on sunday was also available online so perhaps that's a bonus one too? Think we better get tomorrow's code aswell.

J2O · 10/01/2009 19:24

yep better had do, suppose theirs no harm in trying when it opens though! wonder what time it'll open...

pscc · 10/01/2009 19:58

Brilliant! Thanks- which ones are the bonus ones? this is my first time booking on line and I have read that you can only have one bonus token?

J2O · 10/01/2009 20:04

think its Line and Band that are the bonus ones

pscc · 10/01/2009 20:09

J20 you are sooo good!
Thanks and good luck.
Maybe once everyone is booked we can see if antone has booked same park at same time and have a coffee (or even better a glass of wine!).
good luck to all booking tommorrow!

J2O · 10/01/2009 22:47

right well booknig is open, but the words we have DOES have 2 bonus words so looks like we definately have to wait while tomorrows News of the World!

nappyaddict · 10/01/2009 23:26

Just thought do petrol stations have the newspapers from midnight or do they come in morning?

Did you get what you wanted Seb1?

J2O · 11/01/2009 00:04

seb1 · 11/01/2009 00:07

Yes

ChippyMinton · 11/01/2009 00:13

J2O · 11/01/2009 00:14

We got one in wales for the weekend the kids break up for summer, a 6 hour drive but got confused!

nappyaddict · 11/01/2009 00:17

How did you get today's code already?

I can't seem to get into the one I want

onadietcokebreak · 11/01/2009 00:17

got my first choice and really pleased!

ChippyMinton · 11/01/2009 00:18

lol, it's a bit manic, shoving in all those dates and parks. I had to ask DH's opinion and he's a bit the worse for wear, so in the morning he'll probably deny knowing what i've booked

J2O · 11/01/2009 00:19

just kept trying them, your not using both the bonus codes are you? Don't use LINE use ABLE or ROAD instead

ChippyMinton · 11/01/2009 00:19

the lovely folks on the moneysavingexpertforum posted the code.

J2O · 11/01/2009 00:20

oh....mis-read nappy-i couldn't get in any of my choices for the dates i wanted either, for some reason i thought the june and july ones where in the summer holidays. Are you trying to get the half term date? i bet a lot of them wont allow it
