Seems a good thing to do to get best value for us, is look for vouchers that have say £5 or £10 off but the original total still being less than around £22.50. That way you get the tax deducted but as well as that the full voucher amount deducted on top of that. Gonna post a beard thing now as an example.

Did the 60p beard growth thing not work for people? Thought that would get more likes at 60p! I got 2 myself.

I don't see that voucher anywhere, how do you get it to apply, or is it finished?

My Ulster Bank Black Mastercard has given me the cost of €5.42.

Must check out Avant.

Where do you get the voucher ?

Just below the £19.99 Price there is a Promotion box to tick which knocks £12 off the price making then £4.66 with the VAT off at the checkout.

That voucher is under the price, but it sort of comes and goes, just hit refresh or try another browser. Happened the last time too.

Muahahaha

yeah the voucher wasnt there for me but I clicked into the two sellers and it showed up there under the one fulfilled by Amazon.

5.52 is a great bargain for the 8 pieces by the looks of it. Will only use about four of them but my current silicon spatulas are looking pretty weathered, probably from throwing them in the dishwasher which Im guessing you shouldnt do with silcone rubber. But for 5.52 this lot will be going into the dishwasher as well :pac:

Thanks. €5.41 for me using Curve.

Aldi have something remarkably similar for €1.99 each so probably overpriced at £19.99 for eight but undoubtedly a bargain for about £5.50.

Very well reviewed masher

£4.09 for us

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07MM5CBX9?tag=lates05-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1

Its more expensive but if you want the best easiest to use masher we've had this for 7 years (just checked Amazon buying history). You won't beat it.

Using Prime for free delivery! Delivery fee bumps it above the threshold for customs, then they remove the discount & delivery fee!

Does Prime cover free delivery from items packaged by third parties? Assuming no.

Only if it's fulfilled by Amazon

€22 is the limit without the UK VAT. As £17.49 is under €22, Irish VAT was not added on.

21 stg Inc vat. UK 20 percent vat is removed at checkout. This will take around 4 pounds off leaving it around 17 pounds

gazzaman22

So riddle me this. On that link for the britas. There is other seller options, who are cheaper. Say 1 there at 19.99 stg
When I go to check out it costs me 24 or so stg because of Import fees....

muffler

The other sellers would be third party sellers and they dont remove the vat. Stick with items that are sold and fulfilled by Amazon.

How much is a pencil these days? No idea but Amazon have 5 HB pencils for 77p at the checkout.

Helix Oxford Clash Pencils (5 pack) - Blue £0.77

Quality?

Helix would be a good traditional brand not that that means much these days but I buy these https://www.amazon.co.uk/BIC-Evolution-Original-Graphite-Pencils/dp/B003V8BIFE/ because they are bendy (yes they are very flexible) and the lead doesn't break as easily.

The Dealz ones I've looked at and the wood seems very rough on them but fine if you loose a lot of pencils.
