    Essex boy - you are my Hero.

    I really appreciate, as others do, your generosity of spirit, by doing this
    With love, POSR <3

    Gosh I am sorry I have questions. It has been several years since I have booked and it looks confusing

    1) - what is the difference between the regular token way - and sun savers? Which way is the best to book?

    2) I have managed to join ''the community'' on the sun hols page...will it be the same log in and password, upon booking day?
    With love, POSR <3

    There's no benefit of using Sun Savers unless you normally buy the newspaper, as you then get £5 for every 28 sun saver codes you enter
    Also no need to enter code words on booking day, but still need to enter 4 sites and dates

    However with this thread entering Codewords you normally get to book earliest as with Sun Savers you need Sunday's Newspaper before you can book
    Someone's normally posted Sundays codeword here before then

    Booking Day no login or password is needed
    The booking office opens on the link I supplied on the first post
    The Find out more picture will change to BOOK NOW

    Essex Boy, thank you so much for your work! I'm slowly getting to grips with the whole thing, and I've just realised - if I want to book a couple of holidays together, to make a 7 day break, I can't just use the codewords, can I? Or can I? I'm a bit confused about it, sorry.

    Yes you can. You just book two consecutive holidays at the same site.

    It's in the FAQs on the site

    Please note that you may not be allocated the same accommodation for both the 3-night and 4-night breaks, so you may need to move accommodations. If you wish to be in the same accommodation you would need to contact your park operator once you receive your confirmation, however, some parks may charge an amendment fee for this.

    You can book 7-night European breaks on the website, but it is not possible to book a 7-night UK break online.

    Does anyone know if you can book the same again for friends at Butlins like you could a few years ago? Once one family is booked, you used to be able to call Butlins and book a second family in at the same price, we did it a few times but haven’t booked a £9.50 holiday for a few years. TIA.

    I don't know if you can do that
    We've booked two chalets in the past
    Booked one then rebooked another straight after
    It is a gamble though, as once one chalet is booked no guarantee the second would still be available
