I am well into my christmas shopping now Grin . Just wondering if we can share any good reductions online for those early organisers. I got some lovely body lotion from L'occitaine last week 70% off plus a code for free shower gel and I've already used half a pot of one of the lotions already Blush but I just checked and it's finished Sad .

I remember last year I got a practically free tin of celebrations from viking direct via here and on the look out for bargains and was hoping people would share.

If you have someone who would like dove toiletries see this thread for £30 of free dove stuff from ocado (I've already ordered mine probably use it myself though

Matey bubble bath is £1 bottle in tesco until tomorrow. Good for sticking fillers

Nat38 · 23/08/2012 21:45

Thanks Phantom-have just ordered my Elemis bath milk tooSmile for my sister-either for her birthday in November or christmas!HmmGrin
ThanksThanks

Just ordered 2 elemis bath milks (created an account on DH's behalf) that's 2 friends presents taken care of.

3 of the Lego dressing gowns for £4.99 from Argos reduced from £13.99, for nephew, and 2 friends DC.

Home bargains online had some great, well, bargains. A glee sing along microphone for £6, glee stationery set for 59p, that will do for my cousins wee boy.
A Beatles memorabilia set for £9, my 14yo goddaughter has gotten into the Beatles in a big way recently and will be delighted with this.

Ordered hydraluron cream from boots which came with a free peptilash (lash growing serum thingy) worth £24.99' would it be too cheeky as a gift for my cousin?

reastie · 26/08/2012 08:26

Don't think so terra - loads of people buy the boots gifts 3 for 2 around christmas so effectively give every third person a free gift don't they. Plus, I wouldn't have thought she'd know about the offer so have any clue it was free Grin

I'm completely stuck for something for DHs niece who is about 10. Apparently she's into 'fashion' but my idea of fashion and hers are probably somewhat different Grin . Bought her a nice monsoon handbag for her birthday so can't get another bag. Any ideas? I was wondering about a tshirt but not sure on her taste/size Hmm

How about accessories? A necklace, bracelet, purse, scarf.

Or a cool hat, scarf and gloves set?

Can you find out her size from her Mum?

Is she interested in the fashion industry? Would she like on of those glossy coffee table books.

milk · 26/08/2012 10:19

reastie, Claire's Accessories voucher?

Primrose123 · 26/08/2012 10:29

reastie how about this for your niece? It includes stencils and patterned paper and she can design her own outfits. My DD loves it!

ChiefOwl · 26/08/2012 11:15

Btw the Elemis bath milk says 125 ml so about the size of hand santiser bottles - jut in case anyone hadn't noticed!

laurenamium · 26/08/2012 11:16

Marking my place!! This is an amazing thread!

Wolfcub · 26/08/2012 11:21

Thank you I've ordered the Elemis and I'm looking at the Happyland for my neice

laurenamium · 26/08/2012 11:24

So already I will be buying the designing kit primrose has linked the rocket reastie suggested and the Elemis bath milk. You people are heroes! Grin

fuzzpig · 26/08/2012 11:28

I use amazon wishlist to keep track of things I would like to buy, all year round. Sometimes random products go on ridiculously low price just for a brief time, and it's not advertised, so I just take regular scrolls down my wishlist (I have 5 Blush) and see if there are any bargains.

milk · 26/08/2012 14:14

Good idea fuzzpig :)
