    sorry to be asking again,but we are newbies to all of this, does the priority number and online booking guarantee the dates you need,not so much concerened about location as long as it is south coast,just the date is important.thanks for the help and advice so far.:T

    It won't guarantee it, but it will let you play around with different combinations so you should get lucky, also it depends what dates you are after, if its Oct halfterm it will be v popular.

    Got my priority booking form through the post on Saturday complete with free printed first token on it. Got an email from the sun today(with the same priority booking code, never had that before!) which said there was a priority form on it's way to me, complete with 2 free starter tokens......... am I missing something here? I can't see a second token/codeword. Anyone else had this?

    if you are going in school term time, it may be worth looking at the website of wherever it is you want to go, as the prices are usually as cheap as the sun holidays if not sometimes cheaper, especially at that time of year
    Take every day as it comes!!

    had a look at this and it is £306 for 3 nights at rockley park,but maybe it would get cheaper nearer the date.

    No, I don't think so, I have had the same email and can't find a second code word anywhere, same discussion going on on another thread too, no-one appears to have it.

    I haven't received a priority code for the last three promotions... and not had one this time either (yet)

    TBH without a priority code, unless you happy for them to choose your date & park then may as well give up! All the people that send them in via post should just be told "we will choose a date and a park for you" rather than asking people to choose their 5 choices.

    Last year there was another promotion in July I believe.

    Watch this space!

    Has anyone received a priority booking number yet? If so can I be first in the queue to claim an unwanted number!

    TIA.

    Hi, have you been given a priority ref no. yet? If so, I can be your fairy godmother....as I have one and won't be using it!!

    If you want/need this ROBERTA1 - please PM me...

    If I don't hear from you by Thurs - I'll re-offer it to the next person

    Good Luck everyone else in getting priority no's.
  • Has anyone ever booked a Butlins break and not paid for the entertainment passes??
    I was lucky enough to go to Minehead a few weeks ago on a Sun break and found that they never issued us with any passes even though we paid for them. It seems that once your in the park knowone ever asks or is given a pass so wondered if you could get away with not paying the additional cost. Has anyone ever tried it?????????
