Why is my Debenhams promo code not working?
There may be several reasons why your code isn’t working at checkout. Check out our troubleshooting tips below:
Spelling. It may seem obvious, but it’s important to double-check check you’ve spelt the code right. Follow all capitalisation and make sure there are no extra spaces at the start or end.
Terms and conditions. Every code has different T&C’s and you need to adhere to them for the offer to be valid. Common terms to meet include minimum spends, brand exclusions and limited-time offers.
Expired. There is a chance that the code may have already expired. In this case, you will see an error message at checkout reading “This code has already expired”.

Whether you’re looking to update your wardrobe, give your garden a makeover or treat yourself to a new beauty arsenal, you can maximise your savings with these shopping tips.
1. Go straight to the sales section
Debenhams has a huge sales section listed on its website, broken down into hundreds of different categories. Depending on the time of the year, you’ll find up to 70% off across fashion, garden, home, fragrance, furniture and much more. Plus, Debenhams loves to run promotions for an extra 10% off selected items on top of the already-discounted price.
Some of the best Debenhams sales we’ve seen include:
Blue Cross Sale. This usually falls in April or May, but we’ve seen it at other times of the year too. Expect savings of up to 80%.
Black Friday. Landing at the end of November each year, Debenhams tends to run promotions for up to 20% off sale and full-price items.
2. Check for any discount codes
You’ll find a regular rotation of Debenhams promo codes throughout the year, each putting the spotlight on a new brand each week. Previously, we’ve seen promos offering 10% off popular brands including Maine, Mantaray, Principles and Regatta, along with beauty retailers Lash UK, Liz Earle and Charlotte Tilbury.
Debenhams loves to mix it up though, so you never know what brands might be included next week. We keep a close eye on the retailer’s upcoming offers so don’t forget to check back here before you shop.
3. Look into your free delivery options
After you’ve scanned the bargains in the sale and applied any discount codes you’re eligible for at checkout, it’s time to see if you can save on your delivery costs. At Debenhams, there are two ways to do this:
Free delivery with Debenhams UNLIMITED. For £9.50, you can waive the delivery fee on every single order you place for an entire year. Signing up also unlocks free returns, exclusive offers and VIP member days.
Discount codes. Other than savings on brands, Debenhams often releases free or reduced delivery codes. See if any are available right now in our list of promo codes.
