ELC - pricing error online [CLOSED]

:hello:1st time post for me so go easy on me, ok? just decided to check out early learning site for any bargains. https://www.elc.co.uk Spotted that they were offering a free Thomas carry bag (worth £15) with any purchase of £30 or more on thomas stuff. noticed though that on one section of the site it says it is free with any purchase of £0. yes £0 on thomas stuff. decided to try it by ordering one of the cheapest thomas toys (£5) and lo and behold it added the bag to my basket. did also try ordering a toy then removing it so see if i could just click the free bag but nothing doing! Delivery should be here in about 3 - 5 days time. Will let you know what happens. Think i have a leg to stand on if the free bag doesn't come? it does say it is in my order - even on the confirmation. Only time will tell.

    For anyone else struggling, the cheapest thomas ones i have found are the "Take along Thomas" ones, just key take along thomas into the search bar, as the don't all come up on the other list for some reason.

    Hmmm - I think they must have rumbled this one, because I've just tried to order something from the Thomas Range (it was flagged up as "free toy see offer", but when it went into my basket, it said that my free travel bag when I spend £30 has been added.

    Shame, but you can't win 'em all, can you :-)
  • I've just placed an order for 5 pounds and when it came to my basket they added the free bag, I would think they'd have to give me it as it is on my invoice. Here's hoping anyway.

    I've just received the free bag and the toy (£4.50+p&p). My son is going to love it (it's his birthday next month :)).

    Thanks a lot

    Thanks Firework,
    My son loves Thomas - he should appreciate the toy and the bag!

    I have just added 2 Thomas toys to my basket with a total of £16.50, and ELC have added 2 bags! Does anyone think I'll get 2 or is that being greedy (nice for xmas pressies though!!) :-)
    When I go back to the store, it's showing as 4 items in my basket! Here's hoping!
