    so according to the OP this was last week, you all missed it!

    seriously though, this does look a lot like spam, it seems pretty likely to me that as someone from hobbycraft did another post about this earlier today, which was removed because it was obvoiusly spam, then lo and behold another new member posts about the exact same thing...? well that pretty much loks like spam to doesnt it...
    ... didn't think that was really in the spirit of this board, but guess some people like companies taking advantage of us all... using the mse forums as a means to a bit of free advertising isn't right if you ask me... but then you didn't ask me....

    There's a voucher to print on their facebook page for tomorrow - http://www.facebook.com/HobbyCraftUK . They're not the cheapest place to get stuff anyway but if you live near one and want something anyway you might as well go tomorrow.

    eta. it says from 5pm on their fb page!!!

    Spammed - just like the earlier one.
  • Sorry I did get the date wrong - this is today. This is not spam, I am a new member to this site but I shop here all the time as I am a card maker and scrapbooker. I apologise if you thought I was trying for some free advertising but I thought those people out there like me would appreciate a bargain. I normally post things like this on a website I go for on for new mums and a friend recommended this website to me to join. I thought it was all about sharing info to save money. You can always go on the hobbycraft facebook page and have a look, this is how I found out about the deal myself. It is worth calling your local store though as the ad says store opening times vary from store to store.
