HERE'S SOME GREAT NEWS ABOUT LAND'S END!
To make a long story short, like Amazon, if you select your shipping destination as Canary Islands, not Spain, Land's End (.co.uk) will automatically take off the VAT, saving you 20%.
I just had a call from Ann at Land's End who was concerned because the fleece robe I ordered was going to Spain (from where it should be rerouted here) and I would not receive it next week. So she's sending a new one to Tenerife registered mail and I can return the other one when it eventually gets here. And they'll refund the postage when I send it. She also refunded the VAT on my order.
I told Ann I would let everybody know. I am overjoyed because I can now shop there more frequently. Also the robe I ordered was originally £49.00, marked down to £19.50 in the outlet section, and now I'm saving another 20% off that!
I very much look forward to not freezing next week too.
