Christmas bargains prequel thread

[Sideorderofchips]

Come one, come all it is time once again for the Christmas bargain prequel thread for 2021!

[MrsCrimbo74]

This has made me sooooo happy, in such gloomy times, this thread definitely keeps me smiling, thank you Sideorderofchips

[MrsCrimbo74]

M&M Direct lots on offer for under £10, lots of socks but there are some Puma Sliders and Jack Jones clothes, worth having a look through.

[Lellyo]

Yyyaaa! .... thank you for starting this @sideorderofchips.

[MrsCrimbo74]

£15 off The Velvetiser and you get free delivery at the moment. I got a Velvetiser for Christmas and it's AMAZING, especially when you add a little bit of Baileys

[Sideorderofchips]

😘 It's definitely time! I'll hunt out some bargains when I get home

I’ve already purchased quite a bit in the sales for next year...here’s my list
Ghost perfume sets from boots. Look fab as presents. Really pleased with them.
General smelly sets & stocking fillers from boots for hubby & kid
Rexlondon sale has some lovely stationery
Menkind for gadgets/novelty toys such as bike lights, racing sprouts/Turkey, head massager, light up chalkboard etc.
Ted baker was running an extra 20% off their sale the other day so I ordered a lovely shirt. Not sure if that offer is still on.
I also got a couple of bits from Lisa angel but there wasn’t much left. I got the dog mugs & stirring spoons which are nice.
Skagen has an extra 20% off their sale. I’ve just ordered some earrings for MIL
Revolution makeup. I ordered the cherry gift set (for my niece) & makeup obsession don’t count on me set. Both look great value.
Love lolo scarfs in the sale. Made from recycled plastic. Very soft. Perfect for my environmentally focussed friend.

Phew! Think that’s it. Tempted by the light up Santa sticks but I reckon I’m pretty much done for stocking fillers. Also done my niece, sil, mil from the list above.
I’m being super organised & have even got a spreadsheet running to add up the original cost of each item v the sale cost so I can see how much I’ve saved!

I won’t buy anything for a while now but I like getting bits in the jan sales. Happy shopping x

[Daisy829]

@Sideorderofchips did the slinky’s last long? I think my dd would like one but the one she got last time broke really easily so I was thinking of trying to get her one of the larger ones

[Daisy829]

Sorry the Ted Baker extra discount was from
Martin Lewis so code is MSE20.

[whydoesitalwayshappentome]

I am going to join in this year rather than watching from a distance.

[Daisy829]

Sorry last one! Also got these from the entertainer. They have a code for an additional 25% off all items. You do have to pay delivery though but these look good size pressies for the prices

They’ve also got quite a few funko pop figures in the sale for £5 if anyone has kids who collect them. They have starwars/marvel/Disney.

[NerosFiddle]

Checking in. Glad I'm not too late

[Sideorderofchips]

Slinkies lasted quite well here

[PinkDaydreams]

Yeeessss love the bargains thread! Ive really missed it once Christmas was over.
Thank you for setting up @Sideorderofchips

So annoyed at the Next website, the clearance section in particular. Trying to add things to my basket but everything I select comes up as being sold out. It's very frustrating!

[PinkDaydreams]

Does anyone know how to avoid sports direct postage charge please? Need some trainers for the little one for nursery but I don't like the £5 delivery charge!

[kingkuta]

Buckleys have some really nice jewellery sets on sale for £10 and under www.buckleylondon.com/costume-jewellery-sale?utm_campaign=WINTER%20SALE&utm_source=emailCampaign&utm_content=&utm_medium=email

[WisestIsShe]

What's the quality like at Buckley's? Will it turn my neck green on first wear?

[Imsayingnothing]

Hi just wanted to post that Hawkins bazaar have their kids filled stockings for £7.99 if you use the code VIPSTOCKING. Think it says you get 15 toys in each one.

[Someaddedsugar]

I am so so pleased to see this thread - thanks @Sideorderofchips! I’m hoping to get a few bits a month until the summer and would ideally like to be sorted by early November this year.

[PatchworkElmer]

Lindex have reduced all their sale stuff down to 70% off. Very limited stock left but I got a nice Christmas T-Shirt for DS.

[Marypoppinsisnosaint]

Whoop whoop!!

I've been checking the Christmas boards in case you popped up!

I have already got my dc Christmas pj's from the lady who did my last lot. She had a news year's sale. I'm off to a good start.

Oh and I found a present that I should have given my youngest so that will be fab for later this year.🎅🤶
