Has anyone noticed the small print this time? Collect 9 tokens to send off or collect 10 codewords to book online?0

Thanks Beth01dog
I was looking at Sandbank as alternitive to swanage but I was hoping they would still have dates in the summer. As my oldest girl will be starting nursery in either September/October we will try and maybe book early in sept. Its going to be a nightmare when they are both at school!!! alltough I dont see the problem in them missing the odd day as long as you dont do it all the time0 -

Would i be right in thinking that the sun hols released in September will cover dates up to Feb next year, and the January 2011 ones will include spring dates,- ie Easter, and May half term?
I was about to book la croix de vieux pont last night for a week in the Easter hols next year with thompson Alfresco. It was a good price, but then i thought i might have a shot at booking this in January if the Sun holidays cover those dates. Would save £100 approx booking with the sun (or the DM (which i've done before)
As we like to go away as much as poss, i'm always looking for the cheapest way to get away! Less means more holidays iyswim:)
Any information gratefully recieved.
They should do
Thomson Alfresco accom is lovely! friends of ours stayed with them when they joined us on our SUN holiday @ La Croix one year
not sure I would pay £100 more for it though,but if you don't get a SUN holiday,you may kick yourself for not booking ? and it may not be available then?
guess it depends if you definitely want to go at that time,or are more flexible with dates?0 -
We are there Oct half term too. Paid for Eurostar with Tesco deals now looking at cheapest way to buy D Paris tickets! Annual passes are as cheap as buying a 3/4 day ticket - maybe we can book another Sun break for Easter.......
May see you at campsite!
I'm going Oct too!
I got my tickets from DLP online, bought them a few months ago as I never seemed to find any deals.Lightbulb moment Dec 2005 - debt £23700

How can it open next week if you have to have 10 tokens and it only starts tomorrow? confused...0 -

online you only have to collect 6 code words, instead of the 10 tokens, so if you have a priority number you can book online from when the site opens, and by the time you have finished booking, you know what you have, rather than the lottery of sending of 3 parks and 3 dates, and waiting to see what you get, the site is supposed to open next saturday, but normally opens early, friday, sometimes even thursday, and then we have a mad rush on to try and guess the last code word to try and book.Take every day as it comes!!0 -
