    Can you put your items in a basket and save it before the Sale day and then just add the code on the day? I did the first 20% off sale, went to the store on the last one but walked out as it was far too busy, then I was busy and forgot to order on-line.

    I missed the last one, this one's cutting it a bit fine, it always takes 5-7 days to deliver when I order from them.:o

    yep no problem, I've done this for all the sales as I live 25 miles from a store. However, don't rely on items being in stock on the sale day and order as soon as you can. I've only lost one item (out of stock) recently as I tend to order just after midnight :)

    No idea why this has a thumbs down? It's definitely a thumbs up!!

    Hi! I've been to both the 20% off days but surely, if we all wait a few more days it will be the proper January Sales with more off than 20%. (If you don't need things for xmas that is!)

    I posted this elsewhere, so apologies for repetition, but in case it helps...

    I bought three gifts on the 3 for 2 last 20 % off day. They charge (on the receipt, in order) the full price for all three (in my case £20), then they take off 20% then the extra VAT reduction, THEN (and only then) do they take off the free 3rd item - you get 20% off an item which is free!!! My total bill for all three went from £20 to £10.63....

    This worked instore for me in London, on Oxford St - might work again on the next 20% day - HTH,

    xxxx
    :grin:If at first you don't succeed, then sky-diving isn't for you
  • I'g just be happy if they had managed to send me all the items from my order from the first 20% off day!!!!:eek:
