I have an offer code, how do I use it?

Shop as usual on the website and then proceed to your basket. Add your code to the Promo Code box and hit Submit. After entering in the code, your order value will be automatically updated with the offer. If you are still having problems, you may want to check the offer is still valid. Offers do have terms and conditions and may run for specific times or be for specific products. If you’ve checked this then please get in touch with us.

I would like to order for a friend and get it sent to their address. How do I do this?

This is no problem. If you go to your ‘My Account’ section of our site (which is also accessible at the top of the site from every page) you then need to just click the ‘My address book’ link. From there you can add as many alternative addresses as you wish. You can arrange for items to be delivered to any address you wish and this is done at the checkout process where we ask for delivery details.

Note: Your first order from us has to be to the same address as your card billing address. This is an extra security step.
