You can buy all those things without the carousels. But if you don't actually need anything to go in the kitchen, then something else.
I don't think it's hard to spend £100 in john lewis on a treat if you wander round.
A new light fitting, celebration drinking glasses, a picture for the wall, even wallpaper. A bluetooth speaker for the kitchen worktop, lol!Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Help needed. I'm in a present hole.
Was bought a present previously that I rejected it and took it back for gift card (JL), this was from someone who often rejects my presents. Apparently this way round is a big issue and I now have to buy a replacement. Rejected present was a smoothie maker that was too tall to fit in the cupboard, so would sit out unused gathering dust. So ideally an electric kitchen appliance but apparently anything for the home would be acceptable. Cost £75-100 ish.
Would a nice pot or two for the garden be acceptable? Don't think JL do plants to go in them though.0 -
They are very nice, but I am trying to reduce the clutter on the work surfaces, even if it is nice clutter.
A good/proper pantry - that's what I've always wanted as you can keep everything in there and nothing is constrained by daft unit widths or heights or anything. Leaving worktops free.
I'd love a clutter free kitchen, but I've permanently got on the tops: kettle, toaster, microwave, bread bin. So annoying.0 -

I have toaster, kettle, bread bin and banana tree out on the top.

Sounds like the price of a nice knife or a cast iron pot. Or a really beautiful wooden chopping board.
Mrs Generali reckons something from Joseph Josephs will be available from John Lewis and is very nice.
Spotted something similar to this in the charity shop for £85. Would that be any good?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
Or buy a Roomba. Nobody actually needs one of those. But you'll need to top up the £100 quite a bit.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0

I don't need a roomba, I have a henry.
Remember the house near me that was on Sarah Beeney's double your money programme? It was bought for 900k June 2012, they spented a good few hundred thousand on it. It has just gone on the market for £2.3m:rotfl::rotfl:

If there is nothing you want from JL (or there is something you would like, but is cheaper elsewhere...), Waitrose also take JL vouchers.0
