Free durex condoms & 10% off

http://www.xessentials.co.uk are offering three free durex condoms with every purchase, even if you buy just one condom.

There is a £1.50 postage charge on orders under £5, but if you buy just one condom for 20p that means that you get 4 condoms for £1.70, which is still good value, as Durex condoms from vending machines go for about £1 per condom.

AND you can get an extra 10% off that price with the discount code blue476 (EDIT to correct code!) (this is a freely available code (see https://www.geocities.com/activenetuk/))

    Those are NOT good prices.

    Comparing to vending machines is pretty daft IMHO.

    You can get Pasante condoms for 20p each from xessentials using this link https://www.xessentials.co.uk/pasante/regular and they deliver free over £5.

    29p if you HAVE to have Durex, by the way.

    So why order 4 for £1.70 when you can have them for 20p each?

    Better off going to Boots/Superdrug when they have BOGOF & BTGOF deals.

    Why are they not good prices? Can you find better prices to buy these from? Sainsbury sells a pack of 12 durex perfoma for £9.99, not the cheapest of the supermarkets. This site sells them @29p, thats about £3.50 for 12.

    Read the original post thoroughly, Orange99 said postage is £1.50, so if you just buy one for 20p it would be £1.70 for 4 with postage as there is a offer of 3 condoms free with every order in november. If you spend £5 or over on an order postage is free.

    I don't know about superdrug (as their wesbite doesn't list any and I'm there isn't a shop near here), but looking at boots.com it is still cheaper to shop at xessentials than boots even when they have an offer on, for example :

    Durex Extra Safe - Buy two get one free on packs of 12,
    plus two free condoms = £14.98 + £3.50 delivery for 38 condoms = £18.84

    At xessentials buy 35 Durex Extra safe and get three free, (i.e. 38 condoms as before), free p&p = £10.15 And save a further 10% by using the discount code at the top of this thread (now that I've corrected it :D).

    Even if you buy from the boots shop and don't pay the delivery, it still works out cheaper. Plus they do Pick and Mix, so you don't need to buy 3 or more of one particular type, you can mix and match to suit your mood :o

    I agree with knight-on-the-town though, finding the cheap condoms is the easy bit ;D
  • Save money and have fun!!!! No excuse for falling asleep.

    With the expansion of the WWW new domain names are now being considered and approved by the internet powers that be e.g. .org, .net, .bus  Surely the previous reference should be Boots.!!!!!! for those of us north of Watford ;D ;D

    Perhaps it could be available on a Buy Now- Play Later option?  ;D ;D

    Also to be found on Ebay ...  purchase by Playpal !!!

    Ummm... Is this a challenge to other MSEs
