Does anyone have any experience of wiggle pricing structure/policy?, i need to purchase quiet a few bits and pieces and wondered if it was worthwhile waiting for their next offer/vouchers to become available or do people tend to find that the online prices go up and down depending on what vouchers they offer etc? so that they always make the same amount of profit? hope that makes sense :?

    It's always easy to get a £5 off £50 voucher via email sign up, otherwise I'd wait for an offer if not in a rush, I've never seen them put up the rrp in line with an offer.

    thanks appreciate that, i know RRP wont go up, just wondering if the 10% off certain items disappears when offers come along. I'll keep my eyes open!

    Don't forget the 2-3% cashback through Quidco as well, and if it's a full priced item, and if you have BCF membership you can get 12% off as well, though if it is more than that off already you see no benefit, and I do not belive that will work in conjuction with the quidco cashback - may be wrong though.

    Topcashback.co.uk is similar to quidco. An additional 3.03% off Wiggle prices if you go through Topcashback

    BC discount works in conjunction with Quidco, I use it regularly.

    Wiggle sometimes do good prices at the same time as voucher codes. Just before Xmas I bought a Sportful Goretex Active shell jacket from them for £111 quid. Unfortunately the medium was too small and the large too big so ended up sending it back for a refund. Checked the other day and its gone back up to £176!

    - just for balance - for every example like this I can probably add one where the price of an item was reduced a day after I bought it. Wiggle prices are quite volatile. Generally service is good but occasionally you do feel a bit cheated

    If that happens I simply order again at the reduced price and return the other one for free using collect+.
