Gudrun Sjoden has 25% certain things. They rarely have sales!

Really cross about this - it includes a cardigan I bought full price 10 days ago but which only arrived yesterday.
Tempted to send it back and reorder at the lower price! Even ยฃ3-4 postage is less than nthe saving ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก

Why not? I have bought clothes and a few days later they have been reduced. I took them back got my money refunded and rebought the same article. Some people said I was tight but I hadnโ€™t worn the clothes. Go for it.

I bought a Liz Earle gift set from Boots (for myself!). The set was originally over ยฃ90.00 but was on offer for ยฃ42.00. When I ordered it another ยฃ5.00 off was added. The icing on the cake was that it didnโ€™t cost me a penny as I used my club card points!

Duvetdiva Sun 27-Nov-22 13:46:48

Interrail are selling passes 20% reduction. Offer ends 29 November

Just bought DH a pair of Levi's 501 at half the usual price!

They are the only jeans we have ever been able to find that are supplied in waist size 30" and leg lenght 34".

All other makers of jeans seem to assume that if you have long legs you have a large waist!

The year before last, I bought a vacuum for cleaning ashes out of the wood-burner, likewise at half price, though I cannot now remember from which firm.

Next year, I shall be looking for new bed linen.

Wyllow you wonโ€™t regret it; I predict that it will be the first of many!
Iโ€™ve got lots of Sea Salt dresses - they are so wearable. I wear mine with leggings and a cardigan.
So comfy.

Have just succumbed to a Seasalt dress 25% off in the M n S sale, my first dress for ages, jersey, plenty of room in skirt and a bit hippy, to wear with leggings. In my defence, have had a glass of wine.
btw, never had problems with M n S returns. I collect clothes from a foodie store down the road, try it on next door in another store, and take it straight back if it doesn't suit and get a refund in 3-5 days.

I once returned a camisole to M&S that I got for Christmas that was 2 sizes too big. They couldn't even find any record of it in their stock list going back three years ๐Ÿ˜„ I think it had been circulating in the family for about four years although it looked brand new. M&S gave me ยฃ1 back for it ๐Ÿ˜„

Not even enough for a cup of coffee!! ๐Ÿ˜

Radley have 60% off and Liz Earle 40% so expecting some boxes in the post๐Ÿ˜‰

I have just ordered a dress in the Monsoon sale, half price. I need some new decent clothes as we are going away for Christmas and, having lost a little weight, very few of my 'posh frocks' fit.

Funnily enough. . . . .๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm never going to be housekeeper of the year, but I'm certainly not a candidate for Kim and Aggie!

FannyCornforth Fri 25-Nov-22 15:10:57

Doodledog does this remind you of your friend by any chance?

I once got a 'How Clean Is Your House' book from a 'well-meaning' friend ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Someone (who may or may not be my fatherโ€™s second wifeโ€™) bought me a Detox Diet book from M&S.
I returned it (without a receipt) and got 25p for it (it was the principle of the matter) ๐Ÿ˜พ

MawtheMerrier I returned an item planning to reorder at the sale price however I was only refunded the sale price, not what I actually paid.

That sounds all types of wrong.
Iโ€™m surprised that itโ€™s allowed. Dreadful

I once bought a waterproof from M&S and it leaked.
Took it back about a month later but I couldn't find the receipt, only my credit card bill.
They refused to give me the full price and said it was now reduced right down (because it leaked?)
They refunded me enough to buy a coffee.

That's happened to me in the past - they said they refunded at the current price as there was nothing wrong with it. They only refunded full price if it was faulty.

M&S - 3 for 2 on jewellery.
But I can only find 2 things that Iโ€™d likeโ€ฆ
