    Did yours change over night then? seems strange, thanks for your reply

    Yeah it did... it changed when the deal ended and was accepted. So it was running for one day and ended; now it's running for another day and will end again tonight. That make sense? :)
  • If you want to order today the discount codes should be live and working now.

    Thanks! Been trying to order for a while, but the site's veeeeery slow and keeps timing out! :(

    I just ordered the voucher from Groupon and selected to pay with Paypal. I was then redirected to a page on Groupon.co.uk that said my payment data seems to be incorrect.
    Checked my PayPal account and the transaction has gone through.
    Just thought I'd mention it on here in case anybody was planning on using PayPal for this.
    I guess I'll have to contact them and I'll probably be too late for the deal. :mad:

    Just spoke to an advisor, and the website has crashed.

    Me thinks they weren't prepared for the moneysavingexpert users !!
  • Has anyone else tried to buy glasses with this voucher, the webpages keep crashing on me and I don't have fast broadband where I live so am trying to go as fast as I can?

    So much for their claims they could handle the traffic! Never underestimate the size of the Money Forum shoppers ...
