 Posted: Wed Aug 22, 2007 1:06 pm Post subject: The 'Purchases made via affiliated links' Thread! |
 |
|
Thought I'd start a thread for us to post what we've bought via the affiliated links & also for you to tell us when you've made a purchase so's we can check it worked. It makes sense to have a central thread for this, and, without sounding nosy, I do like hearing about the books we're often tempted to buy!!

Hi Glynis, just made an order through The Book People link for about £24.00. Just ordered the lucky dip for under 5's, 10 x Jez Alborough books (Thought I'd keep some of the books for Rachel but use some as Xmas pressies etc too), Kids Healthy Lunchbox and a party ideas book but I can't remember what the title was now (it was an impulse buy!). Anyway, hope they go through OK and show on your records x

I bought some books for school from Amazon. 'Knowledge about Language' and 'Guide to Standard Grade English'(think that was the title!). Bit boring really!

I bought a book for a night class I am taking on the Ancient Celts, and I HAD to make it up to £15 to get free delivery so bought a book of literacy games for work.

Been click happy again! I have been trying to get A Thousand Splended Suns for ages! I decided to wait until it came out on paperback, but it was only released in paperback for a while then the publishers have stopped production of it because it is being re-released in a new format - but not till MAY next year!!! Decided to bite the bullet and just by the hardback, again I HAD to make the order up to £15 so got another Celtic book for my night class.

I've just bought some Christmas pressies via our Book People link, spending £20 so it'll bump up the fund a bit.
Bought - The Big Glorious Book for Girls, Usborne Dinosaur lift-the-flap book, Beware of the Storybook Wolves: A Pop-up Classic by Lauren Childs, Dora a Present for Santa, Usborne book on trees, and Outdoor Fun and Games for Kids using points I'd collected

I love the Book People! 
I ordered some books 2 days ago using a free p+p discount code and they arrived today. I was expecting delivery 7-10 days after ordering, so am sooo chuffed they turned up today. Excellent as always. And the Big Glorious Book for Girls is brilliant. I'm tempted to buy one for us! I might get another for our 11 yr old niece who would love everything in it.

Yes, you have to spend £25 but look online for free p+p voucher codes and you won't need a min spend of £25. I used the same code 3 times and it worked a treat.
