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

Nerf 'dart tag' gun is down to £2.49 on amazon today. Rrp is £10 and they're normally £6-7 on amazon (been on my wish list for DS for several weeks, glad I checked it today!).

Very pleased with the cafe press deal, thank you for posting that Grin

The book people have an extra 10% off over the next couple of days with the code sparkle. They do some pretty good collection deals

Aspiemum2 · 01/10/2012 18:23

Oops Blush sorry, that was already posted

SlinkyPebbles · 01/10/2012 18:35

Ditto waiting's message - what's a singamajig?

SlinkyPebbles · 01/10/2012 18:38

Skip that question - just remembered that we had one of these a while back. I wouldn't pay more than a fiver for one (seem them priced at £13!). It's novel for a short while, but not much longevity.

Waitingforastartofall · 01/10/2012 18:41

Argh don't keep me in suspense, what's it do. Am I likely to shut it in the freezer

MegBusset · 01/10/2012 18:41

Not online but was in Aldi today and they had long-handled wooden children's gardening implements - rake/spade/broom. £1.39 each! Got a broom for each of the DC :)

fuzzpig · 01/10/2012 18:42

Anyone got any ideas for finding a cheap Sing it game on wii? We tried DSDs' one and it was fun, I've seen there's a Disney film songs one which DCs would love but it's quite pricey!

whoneedstosleep · 01/10/2012 18:44

Thank you theangel

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 01/10/2012 18:53

fuzzpig i am selling Disneys Wii Sing it with the Disney microphone that came with it on ebay.

silver28 · 01/10/2012 19:54

Sorry I didn't link to the nerf gun, am not sure how to do links on my phone. But just checked amazon and cuts gone back up to £8.33 now anyway.

IsItMeOr · 01/10/2012 19:56

Just got a Peso (Octonauts) kit reduced from £9.99 to £6.99 on Amazon.

MistressIggi · 01/10/2012 21:23

Have just googled singimajig. Good god.
Worse than dragon butter.

BuntCadger · 01/10/2012 21:29

First off a huge Thanks to all you lovely bargain finders

I need to keep away..

I have pretty much completed birthday and Xmas shops for all 3 dc and some friends dc.. Then I log on here again.

I've taken advantage of the following (and prob more)
Argos 3 for 2 (Lego again..)
Smyths with the link from here (Lego stuff mainly)
Jojo maman - black maxi scooter thing and almost bought mini for dd as she's almost 1... I stepped away tho and figured she would enjoy one more next year
Various bargains like the Peso link on amazon (for dd)

I now need to focus on getting dh, parents and big nieces and nephews gifts.

IHeartKingThistle · 01/10/2012 22:07

Waitingforastartofall · 01/10/2012 22:10
