Electrical goods from LX Direct with code

We bought Indesit washing machine from them last night. Had too coz' my w/machine sadly died on us yesterday (last washed as well).

Curry & Comet (same group) sale was not that brilliant as all their codes invalid!!!!

Seach Littlewood.com (same company as LX direct) cost £239.00 their sale wasn't that good as well even after using 5% discount code. Still more expensive than LX.

Unable to compare like for like at curry & comet as they don't have it .

Seach LX direct & we use the code : XX084 for 10% discount.

As well as taking advantage of their 3 days delivery & installation @ £20.00.

example :-

Qty 1

Item 1100 SPIN, Indesit WIL113G WASHING MACHINE IN WHITE, PE173 (pe173 same ref. as littlewoods but more expensive).

Price : £199.00 less 10% Discount Code £19.90 (XX084)

plus 3 DAY DELIVERY & installation, XX824 £20.00

Sub Total £ 219.00
Total Discount -£ 19.90
Delivery £ 3.50

Total Including Delivery £ 202.60.

Got back our £3.50 delivery charges from them after we called them & asked why have we been charged twice on dely.

Now our total cost for the machine is £199.10 bargain.

My motto ... seach all company if u can before u buy it. As well as getting our cash back from which ever site you subscribe mine is Rpoints.

    With LX Direct you pay interest if you put the goods on account wheras with Littlewoods you don't - and you get 10% back in money or 12.5% back in goods!

    hmm... intriguing.

    I am one of those lucky people who always paid in full once I received their statement. Therefore I don't pay them any interest.

    this is not moneysaving
    it is also deception if not true
    have you not posted this suggestion before and had it removed

    some will want the goods inspected or returned as damage in certain areas of electrical goods can then result in internal damage.

  • its also deception when you use code that have not been sent to you
