Not sure if this is the right place or has been mentioned before but whilst looking at my paypal account I noticed that chain reaction cycles have a 10% off code if paying by paypal for goods over £100.

Code = FCYHGPMQFKLT

:D:D:D

    doesn't seem to work :-(

    perhaps it's a personal code?
    Everything in moderation ... except beer
    Beer in moderation ... is a waste of beer

    If riding an XC race bike is like touching the trail,
    then riding a rigid singlespeed is like licking it
    ... or being punched by it, depending on the day
  • hardyp - I tried adding the code as an e voucher code but it wasn't recognised. Where do you add it? Thanks

    was a good find and you're right, it's listed on their public site so not a personal code.

    I was pacing an order with them today anyway and paid through Paypal but the code didn't work either on the eVoucher dialog on the CRC site or on the discount code dialog on the paypal site so I've emailed them about it. Would be nice to get some cash back

    update; I received a refund to my paypal account of the 10% that should have been discounted. pretty quick turnaround I rekon and I have an extra 30 quid to spend on beer this month!

    well done CRC and PayPal!

    So, apart form the exciting news that the queen of pop is now full time with CRC, it seems that the offer is valid and they'll sort you out. The offer page says it's good through Nov 11.
