Possible £15 Maplin glitch

alexisuk_2

If you spend more than £39 at Maplin, you can qualify for a free gift. Type in code (in the vouchers board) in the vouchers when you check out. It puts in a remote control plug thing, price £15, then gives you £15 discount. If you then remove the plug, it keeps the discount in place! I only found out by accident, but they have honoured it and I got my order this morning (placed yesterday).

Plus quidco at either 6% or 2.5%, not sure which.

Hope this helps someone

Did your confirmation email show the total price with the discount included? Mine still says the full price, even though at checkout it displayed the price with the discount...

yes mine showed the full amount without the discount too. I paid with paypal and it showed the discounted price.

Great deal, too bad the only thing I was looking for was an mp3 player, and the one they have for 39.99 is unbranded and doesn't work with windows 7 (according to reviews). Ah well.

Still pay for postage £2.99 if basket is under £35.

Any ideas which delivery service they use? Royal Mail? I ask as I have gotten RM to keep mail at delivery office due to dodgy neighbours, so if it was another delivery service I'd be concerned the parcel might disappear if I'm not in
