Add it to your basket then minimise the window go to your email follow the link to the site then add another to the basket, you can do this until you have added any 4 items, your 4 items will be free you will just pay p&p, hope this helps:)

Thank you but its not working. The first pen is free and then anymore add is 5.99 on top. I may just make several orders.. I'm a newbie to vistaprint so am a little clueless. Never mind :idea:

Me again!

Just used the Whittards code from Martins email and got my Nans present sorted. Got Best of British preserve set, 80 teabags, shortbread biscuits and then the 4 free mugs. Also treated myself to the Luxury Hot Choc and also a Rocky Road Hot Choc quite dear but going to pop them into the Christmas Eve Hamper. Got free postage too and 15% topcashback.

Yankee Candle wise my fave so far is the Cranberry and Mandarin one it smells amazing!! Dont like the cupcakey ones as I find them too sickly and cannot stand the minty piney ones either, yuk!

6 days until Pea arrives now but midwife said the other day "it" was almost fully engaged so might not make it to then!

Oooh do you have the Whittards code please.Hoping to get the outlaws a hamper each for chrimbo..

Just been looking at Centerparcs facebook page with their preparation for christmas wonderland photos...sooooo excited now..dd (4) is going to love it..hubby cant swim (forgotten to mention to him what the park is based around..lol) but wanted to go for so long :j

It was CAFE for the free mugs or WELCOME10 for 10% off first order.

The free mugs worked out best for me for the present as the 10% one knocked me under the £30 for free delivery!

Don't know if im wrong or not(could someone confirm) but do you have to be careful with Vistaprint and make sure you uncheck a box somewhere as sure there was some problems a while back with them subscribing people to membership with them and debiting their cards with it.I could be wrong but a bell went off in my head when i read the name x

Thanks again for all your kind words and thoughts.

My brother is a complete star - what he's been through is horrific but he never complains and trys to work through the pain. Luckily he flipped over the top of the tractor trailer so didn't actually see Dad lying there already gone (he's not lucky but I'm so glad he didn't see Dad, Mum and I had to identify him and I don't think my brother would of coped with seeing him) but Dad's friend did poor poor man

Enough of me going on again! Sometimes it helps me to get it out but please feel free to tell me to shut up and stop depressing everyone

Tomorrow I'm going shopping to get a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks (I'm also obsessed with Halloween and Bonfire night) I shall have a sniff in the Yankee shop but need to get my Autumnal/Halloweeny candles before Christmas ones and have a pootle in Primark for some Christmas pj's.

Has anyone ever seen the Peter Collington film 'on Christmas eve.' There's no words in it but it's a lovely 20 minute film.

((Hugs)) dont feel bad hun..its theraputic..i lost my mum on 23rd december last year..She had collapsed on 8th October but didnt pass until then..some things are horrific and the only way to deal with them is to talk about it and try to get the positives from it..:A
My mum was in a vegetative state for that period and as heartbreaking as it was they discovered that she had advanced breast cancer during that time(she had a v morbid fear of cancer)and she wouldnt have had long to live.So im grateful that she never knew about it as she wouldve given up on life.xxx

Hubby going into Primark to hopefully get my throws today! *fingers crossed*. Vintage Queen I hope you get them!

Has anyone got the Christmas hand towels from Dunelm? I absolutely love the Rudolph one but it isnt available for home delivery and the nearest store is 28 miles away, I can see somebody selling them on ebay and overall it works out £1.56 more than if Dunelm do get them in (they charge 1.99 + nearly £4 delivery whereas on ebay its 4.99 + 2.50 delivery) what is the quality like? it looks so nice Im tempted to get it from ebay so that I dont have to keep checking Dunelm, it would cost me 1.56 more but do you think it is worth getting?

ive never bought from Dunelm but they look really good


thanks!

Oh gosh emalou, what a sad, sad thing to happen. I mostly lurk on this thread as it moves very fast, but I did want to pass on my condolences.

I am looking forward to Xmas, but also expecting some sadness. We lost my hubby 5wks before last Xmas, so the anniversary is looming, but I do want to make it nice for the little ones. Hence asking about the elf. Not sure my youngest will really "get it" but DS, who is nearly 4 will love it!
