    I ordered three and they arrived this morning - absolutely lovely, so nice I don't know whether to keep them or give them as Christmas pressies which was my original idea. I don't want to unwrap them incase I give them away - can anyone please tell me what size bed they fit? Know it sounds stupid but I don't know!

    I have still to unwrap mine,they look so pretty in their big blue bow I just dont want to mess them up.Must be a single size though,not thick enough to be bigger.
    Oh alright I,ll open one.
    Wow,bigger than I thought.I threw it on my kingsize bed and it overhangs by about 4" either side so I think it would be okay on a double or hang right to the floor on a single.Nice!Measures 56"x66".

  • My DD came into my room and saw the blanket,I was keeping it as a tidy your room incentive but she's of with it round her shoulders playing at being Queen Susan of Narnia again.
    It would also make a pretty tent in the garden this summer,lower the washing line and peg it over.

    I just phoned the number given in the first post as said that I wanted to order the free Laura Ashley throw as detailed in the Express. I gave the catalogue number and order code and declined all their other kind offers. I paid £3.50 on my Visa card.

    Two minute phone call - no hassles. Lovely throw for £3.50 to be delivered in 3-5 days. Excellent![/quote]

    Arrived in 3 days - super duper. Looks poorer quality that usual Laura Ashley, but for the price is a bargain
  • Well I just phoned, quoting the free offer with the Express, and got told - repeatedly - that I had to purchase something else from the catalogue before I could have the free throw. I declined to do so.

    So I ordered online, and when I verified card details, it confirmed that only 3.50 would be debited.

    I've a feeling they may be about to close this offer.
  • Loads of these on ebay just now.Wonder if they are all being sold by MSE ers?

    Finaly took the plunge after dithering about it and ordered yesterday online. Arrived this morning! Although the order confirmation said £7 it only says £3.50 on the delivery note. I'll have to check the account in a few days to be sure.

    Got mine yesteraday. I paid £6.15 for mine (but then had £3.15 refunded). It is pretty, but smaller than I expected (barely cover a single bed)

    I got mine yesterday too, and although I'm pleased with it as a £3.50 bargain, it's clearly been made as a cheap offer item and isn't anything like normal Laura Ashley quality.

    It's still a fab bargain - but I wouldn't be best pleased if I was one of those people paying £10 upwards on Ebay for one of these - I'd assume the item was a fake.
