    MY PROMO CODE ISN'T WORKING

    Entered a promo code into the “coupon code box”, clicked “use” but getting an “invalid code” message?

    Check the below helpful tips and FYIs before getting in touch:

    • All codes have an expiry date. Check the email in which you received the code to confirm how long you have to use it.
    • Check you do not have any sale items in your basket. Codes cannot be used on these.
    • Make sure you are entering the code in capital letters and without any spaces. This is super important!
    • Make sure you are not trying to apply more than one promo code per order.
    • Make sure you have selected the relevant delivery method, if your code is a delivery discount.
    • Some promotional codes only apply to certain items. If you received your code on email, the full details of the items the code is applicable on will be included.
    • Items that are already on sale will be excluded from any further discount via promo code (unless otherwise stated).
    • Most of our codes are single use, so if you have used the code before and it is now showing as invalid then please check the terms of the code to confirm if it is single use.

    HOW DO I RETURN ITEMS PURCHASED DURING A PROMOTION/ WITH A PROMOTIONAL CODE?

    • When returning items that have been purchased with a promo code, you will be refunded the amount paid after the promo code has been applied. 
    • When a promotional offer applies to more than one product, the total value of the promotional offer or discount is split and shared across each applicable products in the correct ratio.
    • If an item or part of the order is returned, then we will refund the relevant correct value.
    • If an order containing a free gift with purchase is returned, the whole order including the item received for free must be returned for a full refund.
    • If the free gift is not returned the original value will be deducted from the refund for the order.
