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

Not a bargain exactly, but my bil is a pain to buy for, so takes an extra bit of thought. He loves to cook so this looked perfect for him.

3 month subscription for a monthly spice box £20.

I've also carefully chosen some spices for my dad.

I ordered on Sunday and they arrived today. Really pleased with them.

Being a bit lazy but I have a big shop in my basket with the entertainer, do we have any discount codes floating about?

Many thanks.

Thank you mustbe I have ordered one for DD, I must stop spending!

Quick look for GHD and found ASOS has them

www.asos.com/Women/Beauty/A-To-Z-Of-Brands/Ghd/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=1904&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1

ASOS have a 10% off code MEGA10, but not sure if it will apply to this or not (sorry couldn't check as don't have account with them).

This is a great thread, thanks! Thought I'd mention that although Ocado has a good deal on the Vtech kidizoom camera, the video camera is even cheaper at Sainsbury's (£39.98 instead of £44.97).

Just ordered the Asda wooden kitchen. Friends DC's have it and love it and I've been waiting for it to be half price!

Thank you for the Joules code - have just ordered a new hand towel for my newly painted bathroom (ooh the excitement!) and a top for DS1's Christmas.

sayhello elc always do the mansion for half price in the run up to Christmas - be warned it's huge!!

Also the last 2 years it has come up on Groupon - well one exactly the same - last year there was also a deparent store which looked like great fun.

Has anyone else heard from boden? Ive had two items dispatched.

I found this if anyone likes Plain Lazy...

www.plainlazy.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=Kidluckybag&source=AffWin

It's £83 worth of kids stuff for £26 - two nightwear items, T shirt, backpack, Socks and £5 worth of accessories, but you don't know the design til it turns up.

Thanks mustbetime, I had a look at it in elc today and dd loved it (although I did wonder where I would put it). I saw an old post on hotukdeals from last year where it went half price and the 20% off code also worked on it so if that happened again I wouldn't be able to resist it. I think I'll hold off buying for another few weeks and hope I get a bargain :)

Does Joules usually send confirmation emails right away? My order (of a rather fab sweatshirt with a squeaking pig on it!) seemed to go through fine but I haven't received an email to confirm. [worried]

If anyone is looking to buy the elf on the shelf, the girl one is on for £17.58 on the book depository at the moment... Cheapest I've seen it.

I haven't heard from Boden, but when I checked my orders progress they've all been cancelled except one which still says 'order placed'. It was worth a shot though!

I must stop looking at this thread!!!
Just ordered the Wooden Rescue Center from ELC, DS1 is going to amazed at christmas!!!! Brilliant - Thanks to whomever linked that

Rhondajean, what is the plain lazy stuff like? Thinking of it for Xmas hamper

It's reasonably well made - the potential issue would be, you don't know what slogan you will get till it arrives (that's plain lazy).

I ran the code through at boden a few times - two items have been despatched, the rest are still showing as ordered, nothing's been cancelled yet. I think I may have broken boden

Sminko, I got my Joules order confirmation through straight away tonight... but it took a few hrs last week :-)

I will not buy elf on the shelf

I will not buy elf on the shelf

Can someone please come and erase my debit card numbers from my memory until December the 1st please?

MooseyMoo, thanks for the spice link, what a fab little website!

You can put a few of these together for not much money and make a decent looking gift for those hard-to-buy-for people. Love it.

Awesome Joules code, thanks! Got DD's Christmas dress in the sale for just over £20 so the code made it £11!

Just ordered a Kiddizoom Camera on Ocado for DC1 - sorry for those not in the delivery areas - the offer is only available until midnight tonight. Some great other toys on offer there as well. Can get £20 off a first order if you spend more than £80 - so net £60 - offer code is VOU0681753.

DC1's presents almost sorted now and have lots of lovely things for DC2 - am so relaxed this year thanks to this thread giving me a kick up the proverbial to get started with some great ideas.

I have another tip for an easy Xmas present - magazine subsciptions. Here's a website but there are many others so shop around - here

milkymocha SAVANNAH just worked for me at ELC. Haven't tried it on a sale item though.

I love this thread!!!

Last week I had purchased one tiny gift... I now have almost all of DD2's, a heap of DD1's and some ideas for DS. Not to mention a good few bargins!

I have just got lots of ELC toys in the boots 3 for 2 offer and free delivery with a £45 or over spend.

On MSE they've got a code for free shipping from Plain Lazy if anyone is thinking of getting the goody bag.

It's MSEFREESHIPPING12 (am I allowed to post that here?)

No bargains to list but wanted to say that dd and ds both play with the asda toy kitchen everyday - give yourself a while to construct it though!
