    Is the 30% off Warehouse stock over? Have something in my basket but no reduction at payment page.

    Tried one myself and you’re right.. probably battery-related.

    AddressPal is your only option.

    Watch yer parcel sizes with PM and addresspal.

    PM will reject anything that wont fit in a locker, and AP will hit you for an oversize charge.

    Vacuum cleaners are NOT drop-box service friendly! ;-(

    Can anybody recommend a good steam cleaner or am I wasting my money?

    Steam cleaners are much of a muchness... Like, they boil water and make steam!

    Karcher, Vax and the like are ok.

    I’ve just heard such much mixed reviews about them.
    Part of me feels like I’d be buying more clutter.

    why are electric toothbrushes so expensive... like are they really worth it? and what's the difference between one for 300 quid and 30 quid

    Around 270 quid I'd say... :D

    When you sign up for AddressPal you'll need to give a credit card for any uses of the home delivery option, as you'll be charged when they receive it in UK. Whereas the older system applies to Post Office where they collect the payment from you when you collect it.

    Update!: Looks like they are closing the Post Office collection option! This was on the screen when I logged in just now:

    >>From January 1st 2021 Post Office/Collection Point addresses can no longer be used.<<

    So it looks like the 3.95 deal is gone. Brexit will cost us....

    There's another similar operation run by DPD called Parcel Wizard. Have no experience of it - I use ParcelMotel, and more recently AddressPal.

    AddressPal's big advantage is their Mainland address. The other 2 parcel outfits are both in Norn Iren...

    I have 2 steam cleaners. a big one and a handheld. They are seldom used.

    Depends on how much of a clean freak you are tbh.
    The big things seem to be capacity, 1L+ ideally, and time it takes to boil the water.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,178 ✭✭✭killbillvol2


    There’s a few sets of them that go on sale from time to time.
    The travellers sell them around me also. Not the worst set of knifes in the World for the price.

    I got a set in a car park last year - I was approached by a talkative gent after I did my shopping. Work fine for the finally agreed price of €10. I think they're shipped from the Amazon fulfillment centre in Rathkeale.

    Waste of money. Wife has bought about 3 of them over the years, all shíte

    I've started to notice more and more 10% and 20% vouchers off on some items but the are only appearing when logged in with a UK address selected. The 27w USB-C charger is currently £15.99 with a 20% voucher off, when added to my cart and changed deliver to my home address I got a notice saying cannot be delivered to my shipping address. When I searched then again it shows up for £16.59 and changes then to £16.72 to reflect difference in VAT.

    3 Echo dots, left UK on the 19th Nov, a further scan on the 20th Nov and nothing since, I was refunded for them on Friday ok, but Im still hoping the turn up as they are all currently out of stock until the new year now.

    In a similar position myself, what happens if they turn up after you've been refunded, will they charge u again?

    I've had a Fairywill Sonic Toothbrush for over a year and I'm very happy with it, it's quite cheap compared to other sonic toothbrushes. Not as powerful as a Sonicare but I find it great.

    Do u have to buy the replacement heads from Amazon aswell then?

    I asked that and was told that if I don't return them then I will be charged for them after 1st March I think they said. If they do turn up, I will ring them up again and see will they do something for me. I have had items go missing like this in the last few weeks, then turn up only to be told that I don't need to send them back. At this stage, I am just hoping they turn up. I took Amazon credit as the refund, so I'll just leave that sitting in my account for a week or two and see then.

    What did you do after you got the email after it was eventually delivered asking you to return the items?


  • Registered Users Posts: 521 ✭✭✭steps_3314


    any good prepay phone deals out there today. looking for a first phone for a 12 year old. so far have come across Huawei P Smart 2021 and Samsung Galaxy a20E. Budget is less than 150.

    I've been charged again a couple of times for normal items but not charged twice for Warehouse items that turned up after the refund.

    Have one heading for AP, it's status is awaiting dispatch, waiting to see can they change it to PW who I believe are a bit better in that department

    Just get the Fairywill toothbrushes, usually around 16 pound and as good as any of the expensive ones I've had.

    No need for the expensive models. Many have gimmicks like Bluetooth which teaches you how to brush correctly.

    Round headed brushes remove plaque more effectively.

    The Oral B 2500 has a round head, pressure sensor + gum cleaner setting and that's all you need.

    The fairywill doesn't have a round head. I have not tried the fairywill but it stands out that the brush head is sized like a manual brush head.

    Different sellers, one is Spigen and the other is Spigen EU. Sometimes only the Spigen store will have a voucher for that product and vice versa.
