What is WEEE?
From 1st July 2007, all retailers of electrical goods must comply with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) legislation. This is a scheme to prevent all such waste being disposed of in general landfill sites and to promote recycling of components and materials. The legislation aims to minimise the impact of electrical and electronic equipment on the environment by creating products with recycling in mind and encouraging reuse, recycling, and recovery of WEEE.
The consumer has a significant role to play in reducing the impact of waste electrical and electronic equipment on the environment, through re-using or recycling such articles. Some of the components used in electrical and electronic equipment can contain hazardous substances that can damage the environment and present a risk to human health if not properly disposed of.
The crossed out wheelie-bin symbol on products is to remind you that Waste Electrical and Electronic products, batteries and accumulators should not be disposed of with household waste. If you are unable to re-use or recycle your article it should be disposed of at a civic amenity site/local authority recycling facilities.
Alternatively, a take-back service operates within Debenhams stores, whether you purchase instore or online. When you purchase a new electrical item from Debenhams you can exchange an old similar item for recycling (eg, a toaster for a toaster, or a similar small domestic appliance such as a kettle). Debenhams will then dispose of your product responsibly.
In order to do this, you must take your new purchase receipt to store in order to prove that the old item you are bringing back has a new similar purchase to link to.
You have 28 days from date of purchase to bring back the old item to your local Debenhams store. This period is lengthened to 48 days for debenhams.com, Telephone and In Store Ordering customers.
Waste Batteries
Portable waste batteries, including rechargeable batteries, may be taken back to any Debenhams store, or any other retailer operating an in-store take back scheme, for recycling free of charge. There is no obligation to purchase when returning an old battery.

When should we compile our list?
We recommend you compile your list three months prior to your wedding, but no less than six weeks.
How do we compile our list?
You can compile your gift list in the most convenient way for you. You can either:
1) Make an appointment in store with one of our wedding experts
2) Or create it from home at debenhamsweddings.com
> Create a gift list
How do I inform my guests that my gift list has been set up?
Once you have registered with us and created your gift list we will provide you with guest cards informing them of your list number. Simply insert these with your wedding invitations. You can also spread the word via your own free personalised website.
I have seen coded letters on my list when I click on ?View my Purchases'. What do they all mean?
The different codes you see are to let you know about the status of that particular item. Below is a table illustrating what each code means:
| Status | Description |
| S = sold | This item has been purchased by one of your guests. |
| D = delivered | This item has been delivered to you or is on an impending delivery. |
| C = collected | This item has been collected and taken away by the guests. |
| R = request | This is an item that is currently not in stock and we are trying to obtain it. If we have difficulty in obtaining an item that is in the 'R status, an alternative gift from your list may be selected or, alternatively, the funds may be added to your giftcard for you to select another item of your choice. Please note that if the item is to be ordered this can take up to 12 weeks to come into the store. |
Can prices of items change from when we first set it up?
Prices are subject to change between the time you compile your list and when the gifts are purchased. The prices on your copy of the list are a guide only; guests will be charged the current price on the day they make their purchase.
Can we manage our list online?
Yes, you can manage your list at debenhamsweddings.com once you have fully registered your wedding details with us. Once set up you'll be given a password. Login to add more items, bookmark favourites and see what gifts have been purchased and by whom.
What if we need to add more items later on?
Quantities of items already on your list can be decreased or increased online - simply follow the instructions when you login. You can add additional gifts online or contact your wedding expert for further help if you compiled your wedding list in store.
How many items should we add?
As a guide, you should aim to list two to three items for every guest attending your wedding. It's better to have too many gifts than not enough. Remember to include a wide selection of prices, and don't be put off having more expensive items on there - friends and family may want to club together. You should also include a gift card which you can spend after your wedding or use to save for larger items - we will also credit this with £50 once £250 is spent on your list.
Can we add larger appliances to our list?
Yes, we have a wide selection of electricals and large appliances including TVs, cookers, dishwashers and fridges as well as some online exclusives that can be added to your gift list.
How do our guests buy items?
Guests can buy items on your wedding list from any Debenhams wedding store, online or by calling our Customer services team. The gifts will either be held at the store and delivered to you for FREE, or your guests may take gifts themselves to give to you personally.

Some of our roles involve a second interview stage, practical exercises or attending an assessment centre. The interview process will be discussed with you in advance if you are progressed to this stage.

We have many international stores around the world. Local franchise partners operate these stores and their staff are employed by them, not Debenhams.
We do have an international division in Head Office that liaises closely with our franchise partners. Many of these roles involve international travel. Any vacancies in this team will be advertised under Head Office opportunities.

It is only for students taking a sandwich degree course and a year out in industry.
