Wiggle rant - and still no Haribos!!!!

alfablue

I generally get them, it is the exception when I don't. (Give them away though - got meat in them). I am starting to think they are more prevalent with lower value orders, but probably its just random.

Just dunked my free Haribos in the my beer opened with my free bottle opener, been a stressful evening as had to fix my blown fuse by free wiggle torchlight using my free wiggle multi-tool!!!!!!!!!!

Spanked £300 on a new fork last week and got nothing, spent 7 quid on a crud catcher this week and got free Harribos, what's that all about?? So wanting a bottle opener/torch, you can never have enough tat

So perhaps their using the sweets to entice those who don't spend much to spend more, however, it's having the reverse effect on me who always spends fairly decent amounts of money. I have placed two revenge orders with CRC this year due to Wiggle depriving me of gelatin and profiled aluminium

chuckd

I have received some haribo this time

Raymondavalon

Argh! And just to spite Wiggle I placed a "revenge order" with CRC last week and paid for ParcelForce delivery, Parts took longer to arrive than the Royal Mail 1st class service offered free by CRC

Fuggid! I am going to do all my shopping at Halfords from now on.. :twisted:

timmys

Hadn't had any for a while on reasonably large orders.

This week I place a £4 order and get HARIBOS!!!

fourcrossjohn

i suggest you get a can of mtfu from wiggle, they come free with every order !

scale20

I get that many haribo's I can't eat them, had to start sending them back to wiggle

I might order a spoke nipple to see if I get a torch

prawny

Skonk

My last order had none but the one before that had 4! That was only for a waterbottle and 1 tyre too

fourcrossjohn

Price drop tyres, and Hello Mr Haribo

Oh and on a non-Haribo related subject, if anyone is thinking of getting some Intense DH Fro Lite Tyres on pricedrop (now down to £14.67 each) I can recommend them. saving mine for summer though, dont look like they'd be great in mud.

Raymondavalon

I am so going to send a link to this Thread to Wiggle's management!
They'd probably be laughing in hysterics at just how much influence a 15p packet of sweets and cheapo bottle opener can have on one's purchasing decisions

More importantly they'll hopefully send me at least ONE packet of Haribos this year seeing as I've spent quite a bit of money with them! :roll:

So, being a phat bastid at 210LBS

maybes just maybes they know this and thats why they've not been sending you them little red packets of happiness and joy. i'm a sprightly 165lbs and have received at least one pack of haribos with every order i have ever made with wiggle.

cdubu

never had any haribos from wiggle, doh! Maybe I need to spend more.

In defence of Wiggle a mate of mine ordered some Juicy's from Merlin and one came without the post mount to IS adaptor (even though it said IS mount only). Maybe it's an Avid thing?

MrVanilla

New shoes, grease and haribos. Perfect

The Big Cheese

Pair of Kona grips came today - with tang haribos - get in!

Actually I usually buy from CRC and my LBS. For once Wiggle were actually cheaper than CRC and had what I wanted in stock.

Raymondavalon

Eureka!

After months of placing sizable orders from Wiggle and getting diddly squat from them in rewards for over 6 months I finally received my long overdue Haribos.
Do Wiggle have any idea just how many "F*** You" revenge orders I placed with CRC over this irrelevant and trivial matter?

Anyway I am happy with my new purchase and of course the Haribos.

In the BikeRadar tradition of "A photo or it didn't happen", yes this was indeed what I would term as a "Kodak Moment" :¬)

And I must add that when I checked out yesterday at 15h30 the Wiggle Shopping Cart put the Next Business Day delivery charge on at £3.50 (I think, but it could have been £2.50) and I was in no hurry I opted for the free 2-3 day delivery service.
Well, the order arrived on my door before 10h00 today! Result..

I've learned that to get a 10p bag of Haribo's you don't need to spend £10+, you can spend 10p in Morrisons and all other good supermarkets.

i had an order placed with wiggle on sunday night, a lifeline chain wear tool, it arrived today, and no haribo!

there had better be some with my camelback mule that is presently in the possession of Royal Mail.

slightly offtopic what is the fucking point in paying RM to post something first class when they don't even bother their collective arses to make an attempt to deliver the package. this morning i got a wee red card through the door, i opened the door to the postie, and got the excuse that they tried to deliver it monday, except of course they didn't cause it was only posted on fucking monday. tossers.

scottbowlby

Hehe, got some Haribo's with my first Wiggle order but nuthin on my 2nd got something else coming today so fingers crossed

scottbowlby

just got my Hope Seat Post clamp and got some Haribo cant beat a freebie
