A rain jacket that finally fits under a backpack strap
The one offer this issue is about, why it made it past checkout, and the three we looked at and left alone. Read it here or in your inbox; the code is the same.
28% off a three-layer shell from a Ljubljana outdoor maker
Autumn in Zagreb means two weeks of cycling through drizzle, and most shells we've tried bunch up under a pack strap. This one doesn't, because the shoulder panels are cut wider and the seam sits lower. It was 219 euros in July. With the code it's 158.
We placed a test order on Sunday evening: the code applied at the basket step, shipping to Croatia was 4.90 euros, and the returns window is stated on the order page rather than buried in a PDF. That's the bar, and it cleared it.
One thing to know: sizes run a touch small across the chest. If you sit between two sizes, take the larger.

Looked at, left alone
Three offers we checked this week that didn't make the email, and why.
- A 40% markdown on trail runners Only two sizes left, both at the ends of the range. Not worth your click unless you wear a 37 or a 47.
- A "free shipping weekend" from a kitchen retailer Shipping was free, but the prices had been raised by roughly the shipping cost on Friday. We compared against our July snapshot.
- A discount code for a language-learning app Worked at checkout, but the price reverts to full after month one and the cancellation page requires a phone call. Skipped on principle.
Earlier this month
Issues stay readable here for thirty days after they're sent, then they're retired along with their codes.
