    Could be the ol’ Gillette trick of cheap razor, outlandish blades.

    battery cameras will miss a few seconds as they need to come out of sleep, it is the same with my Blink external cameras but my internal wired one works straight away

    There are a number of powerbank specials that are coming up on amazon but they cant be shipped here.
    I used to get them delivered with parcelmotel or parcelwizard.
    Address pal wont take them because they are batteries.
    Anyone found a way to order or a reasonably alternative supplier?

    Just want to say thanks to the fella who found the toothbrush deal. Got it for 6 euro and was in the market for a good one! Cheers!

    The £7 voucher for using Amazon Photos worked for me.

    I didn't do anything. Just clicked the link and went from there. My default address is here in Ireland.

    Ah, that's disappointing.

    I have 9 Blink cameras (8 external, 1 internal) for over 2 years. Very pleased with them, not had any issues, have recommended them. Would say they are priced high at normal, but good value when discounted for Prime Day, etc.

    I used IFTTT to make them work with Google Assistant / and as part of routines (to set them as I leave home / unset on return), but mainly I set them per schedule.

    Did you get your email to claim the £7 free credit yet or is the free credit showing on your account?

    I clicked the link, downloaded the app and uploaded a few photos so I suppose I may just wait to see if I get the free credit. My default address is Ireland though as I don’t have a U.K. address so hopefully it works for me.

    Fairywill Sonic Electric Toothbrush and 2 Brush Heads - £5.08 with code 4ZX4TW9U and £2.00 off code on product page.

    https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07XZ1YWR5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Edit: Thanks Basq, for some reason I assumed only one code could be applied at a time. :)
    Above from main thread but does anyone know of a deal for replacement heads. They're £9.99 for 4 on Amazon. Have the brush a while now and it's great, took a while to get used to the sensation and the battery lasts for ages but would expect replacement heads a lot cheaper than that showing.

    Didn't see anything decent on Amazon or ebay so ordered 8 head replacements from AliExpress for €6.51 after delivery and discounts. Should hopefully have them in a couple of months.

    I ordered off Ali express 2 weeks ago. Item arrived within 10 days. I was shocked. Absolutely shocked.

    I may have been just lucky!

    First time buying from Amazon since Brexit - Signed up for Prime, and ordered something under €20, and tracking shows

    "Initiated customs clearance process
    Dublin, Swords"

    Just wonder if this is normal, even for items below the 22 euro threshold?

    Yes, nothing to worry about.

    I ordered a quick release seat clamp for the bike from AliExpress and another from Decathlon on the same day. After about two weeks, both orders arrived in consecutive days. Either Decathlon is really slow, or AliExpress is getting quicker.

    i ordered 1000 masks on Friday evening, arrived yesterday morning, in 20 boxes of 50 masks. Great value considering we were paying over €12 for boxes of 50 masks.

    We've bought some of those too, have found most masks and sanitiser has dropped in price as supply has been ramped up. The masks are very good value though (we bought 2 boxes and the VAT came off).
