Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

I'll be in London for a few weeks later in the year. Can anyone recommend websites or retailers that I can keep an eye on for good deals? I have an address I can send a few bottles to before I arrive.
 
I don't think ACT is great, I once went through every store there as my best friend lives there but I struggled to find much.

Unfortunately, plenty of people buy during the clearance stage. They don't know any better, or happy to save $10 on RRP.

Exactly

I only found a single wine down to 50% that I wanted, I think in a few months it'll be different if anything's left.

However, 40% is still 40% discount.
For the Whisky lovers - $67 for a bottle of the always incredible Lagavulin 8 is a steal
 
Had a bad experience with BWS today. Wanted to use shop back offer of 40%. Ordered six bottles wine including some on clearance and was phoned by the store to say they are not available, despite showing on the system. They are only prepared to offer me replacements which retail for the reduced price. ( One of the chardonnays is said to be $55 reduced to $27.50, but they will offer me only a $27.50 replacement).
Not sure what to do now.

This is also the second time I have bought from BWS when they have then phoned to say they have no stock, the time before they had no VB beer!)

Unfortunately this has happened to me once, and I only was notified when picking up the order. I think it was only 2 bottles replacement, but still a pain.

Unfortunately, you can cancel but you'll lose the 40% CB.

Take the replacements so you can get the cashback. Then return the ones you don't want at a later date.

I recently tried returning some wines to BWS on the basis that I'd changed my mind, but they wouldn't allow it (the guy was vague as to their returns policy beyond the usual ACL reasons). I was intending to call their customer service line to see whether there was a work around, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
 
I picked up 3 bottles of Chris Ringland Sealed Shiraz. BWS have it at $30 down from $40. With 40% SB it's a nice drop for $18.
That was going to be my plan, but then I got busy and missed the time slot 😢 Ah well I caught the 35% and $10 off the other day, so all good!
