Hi all. Just wanted to share a couple of things that have saved me money booking on holiday parks.  First one was with Park-Resorts. Discount codes you find on the net might be for a special club that you dont belong to. But if you put them in the discount
box when booking, it comes off the bill. I did this and got over £110 off a week at Skipsea in August. But the code was taken off the second time I wanted to use it, so be quick if one works and you want a few hols.  The other one is if you phone up the centre
might charge you a credit card surcharge. But if you book online there is no charge.  There are the normal discounts too like having AA membership and getting around 7% off the online Haven price.

    Also as a club member you will get a discount when booking Haven sites.

    In that case it may have been because the code could only be used once?  I have seen restrictions like that before now on codes.

    I used a code to buy a batery powered Bosch hedgecutter. Neighbour wanted on after trying mine. Could not get the code to work a second time. I cleared the cookies and then it worked.
