Does anyone know how the eBay £5 thing works? I managed to get something using both my & DH PayPal accounts (both under £5) & it said when I checked out that the payment had been covered by the voucher. Just had a look at both Paypal accounts & the money has been taken. Does anyone know if they take the money & refund it?

I don't know.

They have taken the whole amount out of my account aswell.
Lets hope they refund the £5.

Will keep an eye on it and post if I see anyhing.

Will check bank tomorrow.

POST2

Me again! This is just to fill you in and what I have been up to recently.

First thing, which I can't remember if I have said this already.. Was got wellies, 3 pairs of ski socks, welly socks, a scarf and gloves.

I also bought a really cute mini hot water bottle from Quality Save. I confess to all eyeing up the thernal undergarments in Sports Direct, but decided that was overkill, even for me!

My Kleeneze xmas order arrived. What I ordered looks cheap and nasty tat and I am really disapointed. but... On the positive, when it arrived and we got it out DD said it feels like its the build up to xmas and so hasn't stopped talking about xmas since. So I have a xmas playmate now : )

Took advantage of the 5 for £20 offer at Thorntons twice! I intended to get DS a Lego star wars advent calendar but when I got DD a thorntons advent (with her name iced on it), he wanted one of those and said he would rather Santa buy him star wars lego rather than a star wars advent, so luckily clever santa already has. .

EDITED TO ADD - I didn't type anything too bad a swearword in the previous post - It was f r I g g I n g. So not sure why not shown. : - /

awww! I used to love that feeling, especially when you lie on your side and put your hand on the other side, mine would always press hands or feet against my hand, would lie there for hours lol! you must be so excited, 12 days!!!!! :T

If you go in to your history it should show up as full amount and then below it a 5 voucher so my PayPal account is now £5 in credit hth

:rotfl:think thats totally normal! its mixed emotions with the first one sometimes, all I can say is that it will be the best thing you've ever done and will get better and better every single day once they are here xx

I did, was really disappointed it it unfortunately, it was mainly set in summer with about half a page of Christmas Day! from what I understand it is another of her books slightly altered and given a lovely Christmassy cover, I felt myself they were cashing in on the popularity of Twelve Days maybe? its just my opinion and others may have different view to me, but didnt feel it was anything like as good as Twelve Days myself.

I hope everyone who has ordered Twelve Days loves it as much as I do!

Oh I'm glad I picked your recommendation then . I brought a Xmas one from tescos last year called christmas at something or the other farm but it was a collection of about 12 short stories and only two of them were about christmas so was very dissapointed can't wait for it to come :rudolf:

On my paypal account, its taken the £5 (or $7.86 as Ive bought from US) as coupon then charged me the remainder and the amount was correct on the 'add funds from bank account' bit.
