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

aspie I saw the video camera there, do they have the normal camera too?

3duracellbunnies · 26/09/2012 10:45

Yes there is no mention of the 3 for 2 on the argos website, maybe they mean that it starts on thurs? Might reserve it today and check tomorrow.

The Argos offer is on, 3 for 2, but IN STORE only. You can reserve items online, but the offer is taken off at the till when you collect the items, so it doesn't show up in your shopping basket - a bit annoying. I am collecting my items tomorrow and I will be insisting that I get the cheapest toy free!

Also, 20% off The Works until 30th September, instore only, with this voucher:

Thanks Monkey, it does actually say that I just didn't read closely.
However do be careful - I've costed the 3 items I wanted from Argos - 81.98 with one free. The same items purchased elsewhere (2 from Amazon, 1 from ELC with SAFARI code) comes to 79.43.

whoneedstosleep · 26/09/2012 11:03

Ignore that last comment! I have now read yours properly.

whoneedstosleep · 26/09/2012 11:18

Sorry I should have added that you need to register as a new customer for them to send you an email with the WELCOME20 code to get the discount.

Badvoc · 26/09/2012 11:32

Maranello
You can get the exact same playmobil set in amazon for £25
Sorry.

Maranello · 26/09/2012 11:37

Good spot, Badvoc, thanks!

Maranello · 26/09/2012 11:52

Ok, to compensate! The Mr Potato Head Spider Spud is back down to £7.61 on Amazon.

hophophippidtyhop · 26/09/2012 12:50

Just seen this chuggington interative set on boots - was £61.50 down to £25! www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/EndecaSearchListerView?categoryParentId=&storeId=10052&searchv2=true&categoryId=6223&N=4294906917+4294742492&catalogId=11051&langId=-1#container

Waitingforastartofall · 26/09/2012 13:04

do you think im best buying the batcave from amazon for 43 pound or 54 from argos as part of the three for 2... hmm pondering!

gleemama · 26/09/2012 13:26

MOOSEYMOO Thanks. My Space NK order has just arrived. Very pleased with it. £93 worth of goods for £18, delivered. Unfortunately one of the soap packets was a bit grubby and not good enough to give as a gift, so had to keep it myself. Just opened it, so now my bathroom smells amazing. Smile

3duracellbunnies · 26/09/2012 13:29

Think it depends waiting what else you would get on the 3 for 2, if you got two other things for 50 quid then you would save 50 pounds, so ave spend 34 pounds per toy, plus maybe a voucher to go back and spend more there. If you are buying other lower value toys then the savings diminish.

Badvoc · 26/09/2012 13:31

I have a £50 John Lewis voucher....come on ladies tell me want the beat bargains are!!

Waitingforastartofall · 26/09/2012 13:45

ive got £75 in amazon vouchers but would use them for other things if not for the batcave just looking if there are other 50 pounf price range for ss and sd if not then not really worth it for the saving.

Badvoc · 26/09/2012 16:51

Aha!
Am using JL voucher to get ds2 a Samsung galaxy tablet.
£200 but with the £50 voucher and £30 cash back offer its a really good deal :)
Pils and my parents have all chipped in too (his main Xmas gift obv) so it will cost me the grand total of £20!!! :)

OodHousekeeping · 26/09/2012 18:49

Anyone got a link to the Argos clearence?

oreocrumbs · 26/09/2012 19:29

Argos clearance. You just put your postcode in and they take you to the clearance at your nearest store. They you can chose your search criteria if you want. I generally search all and set the low to high preferance!

oreocrumbs · 26/09/2012 19:30

Then and choose! - it's been a tough bed time!

OodHousekeeping · 26/09/2012 20:20

Thanks!

MistressIggi · 26/09/2012 21:37

oreocrumbs - I've just bought a couple of O'Neills beanie hats for family for 2.99 each on the Argos clearance site - thanks!
