Try to find out the companies that offer airport parking at Gatwick and then searching for discounts codes should be easier for them like-
Purple Parking

We've found it more cost (and certainly quality of experience) effective to book into a B&B near Gatwick that offers parking onsite while you are away for around £3-£4 per night (plus the cost of one night B&B obviously). The one we've used a couple of times now is called 'Gable End' and they also offer to take you to and from the airport free between the hours of about 7.00 to 21:00 (check these times as I'm not 100% sure). At other times it costs about £7 in a taxi.
Depending on your distance from home to Gatwick and flight times it can make all the difference to your stress levels getting to the airport! Last time we did this we had a stress-free drive at a reasonable time of day (no getting out of bed at 3 a.m. and being absolutely shattered by the time you get to your destination) and arrived at the B&B about 6pm. We booked in then strolled down the road for a pub meal... meandered back and had a good night's sleep. We then got up at a very civilised 8am to a full cooked breakfast and were chauffered to the airport and were dropped right outside the correct door. On our return we just rang from a special free-phone to tell them we'd arrived and within 20 minutes they were there to pick us up and take us back to our car! Perfect!
I'd certainly recommend doing this if like us you are a couple of hours drive round the M25!“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles.”

If you are a member of the RAC you get 15% discount with Purple Parking at Gatwick, just have to quote your M/ship number when booking.0

Have just remembered,( this is an edit !!) you can do it online but you have to go via the RAC website...right hand side of the page it says 'My RAC', click on there and then enter your RAC number and that gives the link to Purple Parking, lots of other services on there with discounts as well. Reason I phoned was I got the price through the RAC link and wondered if it really was 15% off , so phoned Purple Parking for a quote, and it was 15% more, so I told them I would do it via RAC site and he said not a problem , just give him my M/ship number and he would knock the 15% for me, which I did.Just phoned this last time though.0 -
I booked Tailored Parking Services meet and greet through Park and Go with a 6% Quidco discount and payed less than normal long stay parking with all other parking companys. Service was fine, they will also do some light shopping for you so you don't need to go and buy bread and milk when you get back from holiday.0
