Been having a good look around this site and some adult and kiddies books come up @ 1p!!!

BUT if you try and pay with the free delivery option the card payment does not seem to go through

So I chose special delivery and got 20 books for £6.12 :j

I say ''got'' ... We'll see what happens! lol

They have an AMAZON shop as well with books for 1p BUT its £2.80 per book for postage on there!!

They have an Ebay shop as well but I couldn't seem to find it!!

Try not to take the **** with this offer as in LEAVE SOME FOR OTHERS PLEASE ... Like anyone will listen coz you know we'll see 'em on Ebay next for more , but I'd LIKE the everyday families to enjoy this one if possible , those with kids and Grandkids etc for Christmas and Birthdays rather than the hoarding sellers!

Good for gifts I reckon & hope we get them!!! :j

    Thanks - ordered 5 books for £1.33 - no idea what most of them will be like though but can't go far wrong at that price!

    Wow - How did you get postage at that price??

    Was it special delivery?

    Maybe it goes on weight I suppose and works out at approx 30p per book!

    ( The ones on Amazon look okay , thats what swayed me , apart from the amazing price , would have LOVED it if they went through on their free delivery offer but not surprised it didn't!! lol )

    Any of them suitable for age 10/11, would be a cheap deal for my class.

    Thank you ordered books and a hand held game (This was under the toys section).
  • Quidco must have kept a cookie from my first visit ... My 2p tracked!!! :rotfl:

    I was on there to look for toys but then got distracted by the 1p books , in the hair section lol

    I think most of the books might be a bit young for a 10 year old unfortunately ... Is he still into stickers though , but you'd want it to be worth your while re the postage.....
