    Offer is valid from 28/9-11/10, and excludes the Edinburgh store for some reason.


    I wonder why?
  • According to the user guide for the mp4 player, it is a 4gb flash video player- videos will need to be converted, with a download available to convert from WAV format

    Any idea how much storage on the MP4 player, USB stick and voice recorder in the Mail on Sunday offer?


    4GB according to the instructions


    LOL at a MP4 player that actually doesn't play MP4 files, you have to convert to AMV instead :rotfl::rotfl:

    Sorry if this is not the right place to post, as this is not really a newspaper offer, but ....

    There is an IKEA ad in the Mail on Sunday (p.12), that says if you donate a minimum of 5 unwanted books, suitable for resale in Save the Children charity shops, they will give you a £5 IKEA voucher in return.

    Offer is valid from 28/9-11/10, and excludes the Edinburgh store for some reason.

    Does anyone know where you can find a list of their shops? Have looked, but no joy.

    Sorry, bit thick me. Does this mean that some of this stuff just comes free wyb Sunday and Daily Mail? No P&P, nothing?

    Apparently the paper tells you how to claim (& pay?) by post, OR you can claim (i.e. pay for!) them online:

    Whole set £9.99 :eek:
    Video player £4.99
    Sticker album & voice recorder £2.99
    DVD & print £1.99
    USB & poster £2.99

    They say the charges are for p&p but that would mean an awfully heavy video player!
  • The reason that Edinburgh and I think Cardiff are usually excluded from offers is because they are franchised stores - owned by the management, they are run slightly differently to the others in the UK

    i'm not sure if you take the books into Ikea itself, or to a local charity shop, or both. this info is on the Ikea site.
    http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/store/coventry
    you need to scroll down for the info about the books.
    the link they have given for further info. doesn't work for me.
    hth.
  • If I want to get the MP4 player not online but by token collect how many do I need and how much is postage?

    Rest in Peace Fred the Maddest Muppet in Heaven :heart:
