The second bargainous Christmas online gifts thread

[reastie]

The last one is reaching thread capacity so am starting off round 2 on sharing great bargains you have all found. Last thread has been fabulous so please keep the ideas coming.

Thanks btw to whoever linked to the Dr Seuss/hunger games/free angelina books - they arrived today and are fabulous

Thank you for that Evans code!!! One boy will be very happy

Octonauts Octopod playset is £23.97 from asda, I'm sure someone here was asking about this before.

I've just bought 3 personalised books for the DCs for Christmas from Living Social for £17 - they look fab and reviews are great - the link below is as recommended by me (gives me money hurray), or if you look on the living social website - they are in national deals.

The Best Daily Deals in National, UK: Personalised Kids' Adventure Book with Delivery books

Some bargains on the ELC site. I have ordered the wooden rescue centre for 70 pounds reduced from 140.

Also tempted by the build it set but resisting for now!

The BBC Shop have lots of cheap DVDs -I've linked to the childrens ones but there are lots of comedy ones too eg. Mitchell & Webb Series 1 for £2.35, Mighty Boosh £3.49 etc

Oh gosh thisthread - we had been talking about the build it set the other day as it would've been £32 with the 20% off, which was a bit much... but £20? Very tempting!

I know fuzzpig I almost want it to go out of stock to make my decision for me!

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet but...

The Book People online are doing TEN Julia Donaldson books for £10!!! Free delivery if you spend over £25.

I seem to have ordered the build it set! It's either going away till his birthday or my dm can give it him for Christmas!

Build It is evil stuff, I've a binbag full in the garage from when I thought it was a good idea for DS1's third birthday!

No email from Boden yet...

Wooden toy kitchen from Asda for £35.

This is mentioned on a thread in Chat and I've copied it over here. Seems like a good deal?

Oh no is it rubbish Meg? It gets good reviews online. Oh we'll might return it.

*well

What didn't you/your DC like about it meg? I think DS will like it and I know the nursery children liked it.

Some toy bargains at Asda

Any ELC codes floating about please?

Toy kitchen - that's dd sorted, thanks!

Hello, planning a Boots shop - apart from the 3 for 2 offers, do they ever do discounts worth waiting for?
Also off to try another MB shop!

mustbe the site you linked to is down at the moment but I did add my details without it asking what book or personalised name I wanted.

How does it work, do they take payment details and then confirm your choice of book etc?

Yes Kate - you buy it now from living social - then they email you a voucher code - then you order. I've mostly used groupon, and they've always been fine.

MistressIggi, they do a star offer every week - this week is the boss perfume set reduced from £60 ish to £30. If you look through the catalogue at the big £50/£60 gift sets (last years included Champneys, Soap and Glory, Ted Baker, FCUK) they will probably all be dropped to around half price for a week.

So if you are planning to buy any of these then it is worth waiting. However I don't think they include them in the 3 for 2, so I would buy your planned 3 for 2 and just keep an eye on each weeks offer.

Have now bought some MORE toys, from Asda this time. Couldn't resist the wooden toy shop. We have a makeshift shop at the moment, this one will be much better - and hugely cheaper than the Great Little Trading one.

Thanks, Oreo. I'll do that. Never want to make a move now without checking this thread!

For anyone who has ordered the wooden kitchen from asda, we bought my dd it last year and she loves it. It's great for the price, my 3 and 1 year old both play with it every day.

I'm considering buying the wooden doll house but I'm not sure whether I should go for that one or wait and see if the elc mansion one goes on sale.

Still looking for a deal on Ghd staighteners if anyone should spot one on their travels?
