There's a free delivery code for beauty club members on Debenhams - SHBC. I like the little MAC quads.

I'm not a beauty club member, though. You have to be able to actually go into a branch to get a card or to spend the points, I believe. We don't have Debenhams in our town, only House Of Fraser. Bus fare for 2 (I'm a full-time carer) to the nearest Debenhams, which doesn't stock MAC unfortunately, would cancel out the savings.

Oh sorry, didn't realise! I have a spare one you could have if you wanted? You do have to redeem the points in store for now, but they say they're working on getting that online so who knows.

Yes please! I have spent so much at Debenhams online lately. I do go through TopCashback, but miss out on the bonus points offers. This way I should have some nice points saved up for when I finally get to go to a branch, or if they make them available to spend online. Mind you, HoF told me they were working on making their vouchers available to spend online, but it hasn't happened yet. They don't even have an internal ordering system - if you order in store, you have to go online via the internet to order, so can't pay with cash or points (unless you buy a gift card and pay with that). Boots can do it, so why can't HoF?

PM me your address and I'll pop it in the post for you
You're good, I always forget to use cashback sites! It's definitely worth it if you're spending the money with them anyway. Boots were working on it for ages too and they've finally pulled their finger out, I'm hoping Debs and HoF follow them out of the dark ages. It's silly that you can't even order in store using points, tut.

Thank you so much, will do
I use TopCashback whenever I can. HoF only do 1% for existing customers, but when buying beauty products I get 6 points per pound on my card. Debenhams seem to do special higher percentage offers from time to time, and I weigh up which is best to use. I get my Topcashback in Amazon vouchers (they top it up a bit more when you do that) and I spend those vouchers on DVDs, CDs, games and suchlike - it feels like I'm getting them free

Topcashback isn't working for me at all. My latest HoF order never went through either. I've cleared my cookies, started from scratch, still nothing. I give up.

Strange! HoF and Debenhams seem to track very quickly for me. I do my TCB purchases using Internet Explorer, as I can clear the cookies and cache on that without affecting anything else. I have cookies on Firefox that I don't want to delete. Have you tried Quidco instead if TCB doesn't work for you? I think there might be others as well.Topcashback isn't working for me at all.
Boots purchases don't seem to track though, for some reason.

Ugh.
My homework and assignments have me so messed up mentally. I wish I found these subjects easy.
Just been given my Psychology assignment which is due in a couple weeks. I have an English assignment due in a couple weeks.. I still have to do homework for both classes and Math class. I have to finish my Personal Statement for Uni, I have to book and study for my LNAT exam as I want to study Law at Durham and they require me to sit a ridiculous exam which costs £50. If I didn't love Durham Uni so much I'd skip it as it's the only one I'm applying to which requires me to take the exam. It's just ... it's perfect, to be honest with you.
I'm so stressed and my head is a mess trying to figure out everything.
Rant over.

Does the UK have a site similar to Hautelook in the US? I know we do but I can't remember the name of it. I tried googling and found Secret Sales but I was sure there was another one?

I don't know what Hautelook is like, but do you mean ASOS or BrandAlley, perhaps?

Yes, BrandAlley - thank you!
Also, do any of you ladies know where I could get some decent flat knee high boots that have extra calf space? Mine have swollen up it would seem/gained some muscle/fat or mix of all 3 I think and I'm struggling to find any that aren't like £60+.

Hmm I'm not sure! I own a LOT of boots, but since I have stupidly small feet (3s!) I tend to buy them for cheap when Office has a sale. I'll have a think

I bought my most recent one from BHS, they have good wide ones. My calves are stupidly thick, even though I'm not that fat.

Evans' boots seem to be pretty wide at the calf. I have been suffering from swelling ankles and feet (seems to be hormonal fluid retention, and/or may be related to my blood clots) for a few years now, so thought I would try Evans for shoes as they do various width fittings. While there I tried on a few pairs of Boots and they all seemed very wide at the calf. They often have sales, too.

Good luck with your assignments hun! Are you only applying for one uni? I would recommend applying to more just as back ups
Hmm so I decided not to buy anything from the Request collection - I need to save for the winter collections!

Good luck with it all - my daughter is going through similar - we're doing all the open days at local unis - she's not finished her personal statement yet either
Did Winchester last week, Canterbury next week - I wouldn't mind so much, but there's never any time for shopping!! though just as well, as I'm still more or less on a total no-buy until the Guerlain collection comes out - then I feel I can justifiably splurge Any ideas when the Guerlain will release? Also wondering if anyone knows anything about an Estee Lauder Christmas release??

This made me laugh so much!
I bought a few bits of the Guerlain holiday collection from Harrods on Sunday as they had a 10% off day, but they didn't have the eyeshadow quad, so I will order that from Debenhams or HoF. Release day is 15th October ie next Monday!
I bought the Meteorites, the burgundy lipstick and the Liu glitter spray. I didn't want to get the Calligraphy palette, but it is absolutely gorgeous, so I might just have to.
