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

Has anyone else had trouble with their early learning order? I placed mine on sunday and have a confirmation email but today received an email to say they had saved my items in my basket. When I logged in there were n items saved in the basket and no record of any orders in the last year

reastie · 28/08/2012 17:19

wolf no probs with mine (apart from I couldn't do more than one order with the bluebird code, think it's limited to one time per log in person only). Mine arrived a few days after ordering - have they got a phone number you can try?

moonblushtomato · 28/08/2012 21:03

Noticed that Asda has some great toys in their 2 for £20/£10 offer.

Had DCs with me so got lots of ideas!

pickofthepops · 28/08/2012 21:07

The Mr Bean 4 DVD box set mentioned on hotukdeals for £3 is a great buy I think (sainsburys in store). Marked at £14 in my branch but I queried and sure enough went thru at £3. Even if just to watch at crimbo if all else on tv dire.

Eddas · 28/08/2012 22:22

ooo dd loves Mr Bean, bet my Sainsbury don't have any!

Levantine · 29/08/2012 00:22

Blimey, just trawling through that Argos clearance section this playmobil explorer boat is a total bargain, down from £40 to £11.99

I bought it near full price for DS a couple of years ago or I'd buy one! it's really great, loads of detail, he played with it in the bath for hours

DoubleMum · 29/08/2012 07:23

My Sainsburys didn't have any Mr Bean. Sadly I had my children with me and still spent a fortune though.

fuzzpig · 29/08/2012 07:29

Is it the tv series or the movies of mr bean? I prefer the series but I'm sure DD would love the movies too (she saw the holiday one and found it hilarious)

pickofthepops · 29/08/2012 07:38

Tv series

fuzzpig · 29/08/2012 07:57

I'll have to look for it. We only have a tiny Sainsburys here but I'll ask my dad to look in his nearest one :o thanks!

fuzzpig · 29/08/2012 07:58

Haven't read whole thread yet Blush but in case it's not been mentioned the barbie ultimate closet thing is half price on amazon

SayHelloToMyLittleFriend · 29/08/2012 08:11

I've just ordered a spiderman mr potato head from amazon for £7.61 (reduced from £14.99). I'm not even sure who I'll give him to, I just thought he was really cute :)

NameChangeCentral · 29/08/2012 09:23

also in-store at sainsburys, a pack of three Thomas The Tank Engine trains for £5, was £14.99. Thats a stocking half-filled Smile

fuzzpig · 29/08/2012 09:37

Oh that's cool which type of trains are they? The chunky toddler ones or the more grown up ones?

BeaWheesht · 29/08/2012 09:57

Levantine do you think that boat would be ok for an almost 3 year old?

BeaWheesht · 29/08/2012 10:23

amazon has monoey off a lot of playmobil including this take along princess fantasy chest

NameChangeCentral · 29/08/2012 10:33

Fuzzpig, they're the Take n Play ones with magnets at the front and back. The pack is Thomas , percy and Rosie

HabitsofaLifetime · 29/08/2012 10:42
