If you spend over £150 in the sale you are then able to buy a mystery box of goodies for just £50 while stock lasts.
While you won't know what colour or items you get inside, the mystery box is worth grabbing.
Each mystery box have a minimum value of £500 RRP worth of Le Creuset items, and are guaranteed to include at least one piece of Cast Iron cookware.
The total minimum amount you'll have to spend to get a box comes to £210 which includes your ticket, sale item costs and the mystery box price.

Another commented: "Wait please do London!"
"No I NEED this," penned a third.
Top kitchen trends for 2025
Josie Medved, Design Manager for Symphony Group, has shared her insights on what she predicts will be big news for 2025.
Matt finishes
In 2025, the focus shifts to more matt textures, which offer a sleek, sophisticated look that complements modern kitchen designs. A matt finish is low-maintenance, perfect for families and busy lifestyles.
Textured cabinets
Surfaces with a textured finish have become increasingly popular this year and 2025 will see them adding visual interest, feature focal points and even sound absorption in the kitchen. Ribbed effects will be particularly on trend.
Pocket doors
When entertaining in an open-plan space, it's nice to hide away all the cooking clutter and washing-up without having to leave the kitchen. Pocket doors are space-saving and flexible for different needs.
Caramel colours
After the recent surge of interest in yellow kitchens, Caramel cabinetry is the next colour trend that is set to be a huge hit in 2025. Adding warmth and lightness to a space with limited natural light, this tone is uplifting and inviting, and it looks super-glam when teamed with contrasting Black.
Mix and match
Whether it's to create a statement look in an otherwise neutral scheme or simply to introduce two favourite colours to the kitchen, taking a mix and match approach is set to be
the
look in 2025. For an eye-catching design, grey or white cabinets around the room are the perfect complement to a standout island in a more daring shade such as Dusky Pink or Hunter Green.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "OMG it's happening."
"I will sell my soul to make it please,' claimed a fifth
Someone else added: "I can't physically contain my excitement I have been checking my emails the last 2 days."

Savvy shoppers race to Claire's for ‘closing down' sales where earrings cost a PENNY as company file for administration

EAR THIS Savvy shoppers race to Claire's for 'closing down' sales where earrings cost a PENNY as company file for administration SHOPPERS are racing to get their hands on a piece of their childhood, as a wave of bargain hunting takes over social media. Following the news that Claire's has collapsed into administration, a frenzy of viral videos shows customers swarming stores to grab heavily discounted items. 2 Shoppers are racing to Claire's to get their hands on some bargain items Credit: Alamy One such shopper, TikToker Shivani Khosla, who is known as 'khoslaa', shared a video of her rushing over to the high-street store, which was a staple for many Brits growing up. While explaining how she got her ears pierced at Claire's when she was five-years-old she filmed the inside of her local Claire's and challenged herself to see what she can get for £10. Shivani discovered that "right now, there is a sale. If you buy three items, you get the fourth one completely free." Her video gained 597.1k views and 491 comments after just two days of being shared. One person wrote: "Guys we need to save Claire's." Another TikToker who is known as 'toosexc4diswrld' revealed that they even got a pair of earrings for a penny. Her video gained 2.6 million views and 866 comments after three days of being shared. One person wrote: "I'm going to miss this store." Nostalgic 90's retailer files for bankruptcy after chain misses rent payments for June and July The beloved high-street brand officially collapsed into administration, but all 306 stores across the UK and Ireland are set to remain open, with no jobs lost under the current plans. However, a number of changes will impact shoppers directly. Online orders have been suspended, and any outstanding orders that have not yet been shipped will be cancelled. Customers who placed these orders can expect to receive a refund. Meanwhile, orders that have already been dispatched will arrive as usual. In a further blow to customers, Claire's is no longer processing refunds for returns. Shoppers who have items to return may need to contact their credit or debit card provider to see if they can obtain a refund. Consultancy firm Interpath has appointed Will Wright and Chris Pole as joint administrators to manage the struggling company. 2 Khoslaa headed to her local Claire's store Credit: tiktok/@khoslaa Mr Wright said: "Claire's has long been a popular brand across the UK, known not only for its trend-led accessories but also as the go-to destination for ear piercing. "Over the coming weeks, we will endeavour to continue to operate all stores as a going concern for as long as we can, while we assess options for the company. "This includes exploring the possibility of a sale which would secure a future for this well-loved brand." The current situation follows the Claire's parent company's second bankruptcy filing in the US this month, having previously declared itself bust over unpaid loans in 2018. Global presence Although Claire's has a global presence with 2,750 stores across 17 countries, reports suggest that the UK branch is not expected to find a buyer. A senior insolvency expert noted that potential buyers, such as Hilco Capital, have recently withdrawn their offers upon realising the severity of the chain's financial issues. Claire's UK division has faced financial difficulties, incurring losses of £25 million over the last three years. In the year ending March 2024, the company recorded a loss of £4.7 million, a slight improvement from the £5 million loss reported the year before. During the same period, its turnover declined to £137 million.
