    Because it raises suspicion when all of a sudden the same address makes several orders rather than just one big one.
    well it shouldnt cos loads of times ive placed 3 or 4 different orders from companys
    boots the other week had 4 from me. im always forgetting things i want to order:)

    i have only ordered one book but why does it matter if people order a couple of books separate? if it was 20 or so then yes but how many times have you ordered stuff and forgot to add something or walked into a shop, forgot what for and came out with something different only to remember why you went in?
    A happy wife, and mum to 2 lovely little boys :j

    There is a disclaimer on their website which could see orders being cancelled BTW
    It says: [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The contract will not be formed until Waterstone's charges your credit card at the point of despatch of the goods. We will send you an email to let you know the goods have been despatched to you, and your offer has been accepted."[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
    [/FONT]
    [/FONT]
    PS Why do people have to be greedy by making more than one order :mad:


    I think most sites have similar disclaimers nowadays. Its worth a try and at the end of the day if it works, then great, if not just have to return the books or pay the actual price (personally I will be keeping as I want the books for my daughters birthday anyway!)

    The thing about posting any grabbit offer on here is that the companies will have an influx of orders so that in itself could raise suspicion. Its part of the risk of posting a grabbit but I would rather risk it and pass the offer to as many as possible than keep it to myself if you get me.

    I hope everyone gets their orders at the specified price....or I will be left feeling very guilty at the hassle it could cause for many!
  • I've just ordered "how to post in the correct forum" by M.S.E Member

    I'd recommend everyone read it at least once
  • Brilliant! Haven't had a confirmation yet tho :0(
    :grin: Save me from spending...

  • Also this offer may be posted on many other freebie websites as well so Waterstones will have lots of orders anyway :rolleyes: .
