Not a swipe at you as 10secondsurvey pointed out, but I think you'll be very lucky to get anything other from the airline (or any other airline) than an apology for a short delay, by which I mean that you got your bags back at the airport, not a few days later.
Now when they go missing for a few days, you might be able to get something then. Its happened to me three times in the last year and one one occasion I got £100 to cover emergency clothes purchases (missing for 2 days), whilst on the next it was a free overnight amenity pack (a very good one) and the bags back the next morning.
Until then, you have a choice who/where/when to fly with/from and it appears that late night arrivals at Stansted may well have baggage delays, so its a judgement of whether you are prepare to trade off some frustration for what you report as being a good deal, just as I sometimes have to decide how much I want to get home on a Friday night, when airports are mad places, compared to a leisurely Sat am. start.
