edited 9 January 2011 at 10:01AM in It's gone, but was it any good?
After buying an elephant for my son's birthday and finding the ticket to London or Whipsnade could be used for an adult, I returned to the Debenhams webby to find they had sold out. I have found some in Viking Direct (both business and personal site) for £8.39 each. Delivery for the 2 cost £4.03 but considering the saving I will make at the zoo the £20 spend is worth it :D

Sorry no link - can someone else enable??

ETA - quidco is 9% and you can register your nectar card too to get points!

EATA - apparently you can still get these instore at Debenhams for £3 or £4 so check there first

    I bought some when they were online for £5 but now i am looking for a couple as nephews would like to go too. Had a look near me in Debenhams Sutton but there were none. Someone posted on HUKD that TKMAXX were selling them for £5.99 instore if that helps? I am going to have a look in my local one this week! :)

    Guildford had loads the other day but with an extra 20% off as the zoo tickets were missing! I already have 2 as it is a massive saving and you can use them at London Zoo!
