    I find this site- Halfpriceperfumes great on price, not only are they great on prices-usually between 20-40% off boots prices but i am especially fond of their clearance section.

    Do check it out guys

    Loads of bargains to be had, mse style:P

    I find that a lot of the site who sell testers don't sell the full range of products so, if you know someone with rather particular taste, you can be stuck. I've used https://www.LauraPerfumery.co.uk a few times and they always seem to have what I want. And they do giftwrapping (which my husband thinks is a bonus!).
  • I always find getting the other half to buy it for me when he goes away on business to be the best option:rotfl: that way i dont have to pay at all and i get a couple of weeks peace into the bargain ;)
    Will this hammy hunt ever end ???
    So far all 4 hamsters £40,3 beds £15,Skate board and u turn £22,House £25 total £97.00 ....still wanting wheel,car,slide,ball,surf board ....
    HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERY ONE :rotfl:

    Has anyone had any dealings with StrawberryNet as my experiences have not been great, although in the end I have not lost out.
    Transaction no.1 - My partner bought herself some perfume. It didn't arrive. After numerous emails and numerous weeks, they agreed it must have got lost and sent another one. Which finally did arrive.
    Transaction no.2 - Tried to buy some aftershave for my Dad for Christmas. They are actually sending from Hong Kong not the US so I ordered it on 22nd November. By mid December it had still not arrived. Constant chasing and emails, resulted in them putting a trace on the package. The Post Office website showed no trace, the Hong Kong Post Office website did say it was sent on the 29th November. UK said it had not arrived.
    In January(!) Strawberry and the UK Post Office bot informed me it had been delivered and signed for. Where had it been delivered and Who signed for it? Neither party could tell me. The UK post office said I could not make a claim, only the sender could claim, but I was the only one who had lost out.
    However, just last week StawberryNet agreed to pay me a refund. Didn't help the lack of Christmas present though!

    So I'd just say beware. It comes from Hong Kong and it seeme pretty hit and miss to me. Or in fact so far 2 misses.

    Just bought some man's aftershave from fragrancedirect.co.uk :

    1) I bought Dunhill Edition, which you can't find in stores any more
    2) The price was excellent (half the in-store price)
    3) They delivered in 2 days !
    It's only rock 'n' roll ...

    I think boots have a third off selected fragrances at the moment for valentines
  • I Highly reconmend https://www.halfpriceperfumes.co.uk, I find the Perfumes are much cheaper than the highstreet and other online sites, you can also bag a bargain with the unboxed items, plus free delivery to the UK mainland, usually delivered very quickly:T
  • I have used strawberry net a few times and found them to be quite good - my items were shipped from Hong Kong to, but did arrive within about 3 days of me placing the order.
