    Just spotted this on HotUKDeals:

    Buy any greetings card (from 50p) and it allows you to buy a £15 giftcard for £10.

    The small print doesn't mention stamps being exempt from gift card purchases, and WH Smiths have a 5% off stamps promo.

    Therefore, if you buy 3 books of 12 1st class stamps it only costs £11.22 (incl birthday card) rather than £16.56

    The photobucket link takes you to a receipt so I guess that should verify this.

    Here is the original post though I don't know if it's much helpful as the HUKD-ers appear to be arguing amongst each other mostly.

    They are definitely giving 5% off at Superdrug on 2nd class stamps too - I questioned this with the SA the other day.

    The Superdrug in Queensgate Peterborough are definately doing 5% off both 1st and 2nd class stamps; I know as I got 3 books of each.

    I also asked how long for and I was told until early April. So as I've used a bookfull already (selling on ebay) I'll be getting a load more soon.

    P.S. you don't need to buy anything else to get this offer.

    Today I got 8 books of 12 (1st class) = £41.92 and 2 books of 12 (2nd class) = £8.20

    Total: £50.12

    I believe Superdrug have been doing this for several years now just before April !! :)
  • This week`s weekly email suggests stamps may be bought at a discount at Superdrug. My local store this morning told me the offer ended on Mother`s day......

    mods please merge this. thanks
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.
  • Offer still on at Superdrug - although are they really going up, or is it just a ploy to make us all stock up on stamps. I have enough for 18 months now - don't send many cards and will defintely be using e cards more now.

  • Today in Ashford only 5% off 1st class not 2nd class which was really what I wanted.
