    There are a few free delivery codes available for the .co.uk site but don't work on .ie. :/

    That's disappointing. I wonder if you could put the item in your basket and enter the free P&P code on the UK site then log in and order in Euros? The only other way would be too spend €55 or over to qualify for free P&P. There's some other good books on sale, but I don't think the ones I'd be interested in would add up to €55. :(

    Try 163-PP, 166A or 167FPP.

    Those codes don't work for me, even on the UK site. :( Anyway I think even with the €7.99 P&P those books are still a bargain at €22 for 20 books.

    I've been looking around the web site and I've found a few more good book prices that bump that total to just over €55:

    1) Books That Changed the World (see above) €14
    2) Penguin Celebrations 14 Modern Classic Fiction Books €27.49
    3) Rachel's Food For Living €11.49 (Good price plus might make a good Mother's Day, Birthday gift etc...)
    4) Rachel's Diary 2008 €4 or any €4 book from the sale section.

    Grand Total €56.98 (Orders over €55 qualify for free P&P.) :D
    There's lots more combinations, these are just the ones I thought offered the best value.
