:D:D You can never have enough Portmeirion especially at these prices

I must be the embodiment of that motto:rotfl:Anytime the shop runs out of stock they can pop around the mine for emergency supplies. Not that I would hand them over though.:rotfl:
My MIL has shares so our excuse is its not shopping its dividend support

How much did all that cost? And how much did you save?

I am so trying to resist this. I don't really need them but I really want them. The only thing putting me off is the delivery cost. I know that's really reasonable, given the weight and how they need to be packed but......

It's FREE postage over £50 £4.95 isn't bad considering they are £4.99 each (against £2) in T K Maxx

They are good, I have cupboards full and its all seconds but you couldn't find the fault. they also second items if they have a motif that's been discontinued or that's not normally on that item but I don't know if you can order those online.
The sales people pick the orders and we saw them yesterday going over each plate carefully.

Me too - most of mine are Seconds & it's hard to spot the flaw got some unusual ones from Portmeirion Village in the 80's.
My original collection were wedding presents in the 80's & these are all Firsts. But never used as I have numerous Seconds for everyday use
I love the fact you can mix & match rather than having them all the same. I do have my favourites - Daisy, Passion flower & Honey suckle ♥

Thank you so much! I bought a full set for around £50.
I never thought i'd ever have a 'proper' dinning set. I could cry with joy.
