  • There is only one JL here...so it would be difficult to return it there, but I am down in London at the weekend so I could poss take it back to the oxford steet branch.

    Queenie - I'd try it! John Lewis are usually pretty good about that kind of thing so you'll likely get a credit note or shop voucher for it. £25 is not to be sniffed at!

    Yeah I was thinking I'd get a credit note/voucher but like you say £25 is £25 and they do some lovley homeware in there which is usually ay out o my price range.

    Queen - perhaps you could tell them it was a gift and you dont have the receipt?

    I was thinking along those lines...I've reurned something before to JL without receipt but that was faulty and they did a straight exchange

    Moring, lovelies!

    Just a quick visit 'cos I'm off exercising and meeting Mum.

    Great bargains Queenie. Dying to see them on your blog.
    I've just seen that the bag I bought from the jumble new with the tags on is showing on the John Lewis website...do you think it would be wrong to take it back to John Lewis?:o or would that be too naughty

    I don't think I could, I'd be too frightened.
  • have a lovley day goan xx

    Queen- there is early, and early! I'd give anything to "lie in" till say, 6:30! but still, bedroom looks better and course work for today is done...so, relaxation before work tomorrow, which I am dreading but at least it will be busy with mother's day on sunday.

    Quiet morning ahead I think, maybe some lazy time in front of the TV, meeting friend about half one, not seen her in a little while and I've been good with money (as in have way more of my fortnightly budget left than ususal) so think I will treat us to a pot of tea at costa ;) wild life here!

    Morning everyone. Just a flying visit...posting and packing to do.

    Queen- I would definitely return the bag. What can the worst be but saying no way!!

    Goan.. have a lovely day

    Daisy.. enjoy your friend time at Costa and well done for getting your course work done and finished so early.

    Alex- you should Ebay your stuff.. once you get started it's really easy and when the money appears in paypal it seems very worth it:). Plus it doesn't cost anything unless it sells so no loss.

    I am meeting friends haven't seen for a while tonight, so am hoping to get slightly enebriated since they do lovely cocktails where we're eating!! not sure what to wear yet!!
