The third bargain Christmas gift ideas thread

[reastie]

You lot are just giving too many good ideas out, we've filled the last thread

New one here for all the ideas so far, I've spent saved a fortune

Phew! Finally made it to the end of the thread!!

Ordered my Paper Jamz drums from the entertainer yesterday and they arrived today!!

That gltc caravan looks fab thanks atalossforwords that goes with DDs dollshouse so will order it.

Thank you, thank you...great thread

My word! I've just taken all of my shopping up to the top floor to sort out. I've gone a bit mad .

Have roughly sorted into piles for everyone and my pile is the biggest . May have to put some of that stuff onto other peoples!

So despite saying I would be very frugal with DD the child who has everything, I seem to have ordered quite a lot .

The poor menfolk don't have much, while all of the ladies have gorgeous piles of luxuary bargain presents.

We need to up the ante on the mens gifts.

Also teenage DSD. Her pile is very small still, although spent pretty much the same as DD. I feel I need to pad it out with more things, but not sure what.

I second the request for more men presents, have lots of male relatives to buy for who I don't particularly like and don't want to spend a fortune!

Hamleys Sylvanian families half price.

Free delivery and 5% cb from quidco too!

Sorry I can't help myself, someone please come and confiscate my laptop.

Oh ffs, I've just bought a telly

This is what happens when I have a night off work. The excitment has gone to my head, and my finger is trigger happy.

Just got an email from Amazon with their latest micro scooter deals. A Mookie Street Cruz pink scooter - £24.45 and free deliv.

For people searching for mens presents, while searching the sock shop with the 'SOCKIT' code for free delivery, I saw they have some football socks for £6.25 down from £10... I saw Arsenal & Man U but there may be more? Can't link sorry as on phone.

Sadly DH not a footie fan so I'm still looking for him too!

I am not sure this will work as have only just ordered it, but my payment has gone through. I orderered stuff up to £60 on La Redoute, then put in the 0280 code to get £30 off a £60 order. I then removed the additional items I did not want bringing the total to quite a bit below £60. The code still seems to have held. So, fingers crossed I have a nice pair of converse for me and a lovely Vertbaudet winter coat for DS for £37.49 delivered!!! (Plus a free Moc Croc Handbag!)
I will let you all know once/ if they are delivered.

If anyone is shopping for 17 year old boys i am after inspiration for dss!

Oreo Do you need an intervention?

New thread already here

I think I may MistressIggi! I'm developing a twitch if I'm away from a bargain for more than 5 minutes .

I'm going to try and focus my shopping now rather than just buying anything that looks good.

Off to check out the men's stuff links .

Marking place

My La Redoute order arrived few days ago (thanks for the code!!) but don't get excited about the free handbag. It's horrible, very bad quality and smells. Won't use it as a present, not sure I even want to take it to charity shop. Got lots of lovely clothes for kids and DH though.

Doshusallie - link for you for the shark soaps

Another poster had recommended this site and I bought them to go with the flannels as part of a christmas eve hamper.

Men's gifts - brandalley is very good for designer menswear at reduced prices, up to 70 percent off, and deals change daily.

I use it a lot, best saving so far I think was a mastrum jacket at £800 for £170, a £135 ed hardy hoody I bought for dd1 last christmas for £29, etc.

You have to join to view the sales - delivery can take a few weeks so don't leave it too late.

If anyone does want to join, if you pm me with an email address I can invite you and we both get £10 off.

My Hexbug and Toot Toot drivers have just arrived

I love this thread!

I have ordered a couple of these as an adult men's present. Says it is unboxed but I'm not too bothered about that and don't really like the men but have got to buy for them anyway

Hexbugs - anyone know what age range they are for? I have 2 brothers to buy for who are late primary age (11 and 8 I think). Too old?

My 5 year old got lots of Hexbugs for Christmas last year. My 8 year old Nephews were very jealous and requested Hexbugs for their next birthdays.

13 year old Nephew not so bothered though.

Be careful with GLTC - they are notorious for rubbish customer service. An advanced search on here will bring up loads of threads!

They missed a load of stuff out of SIL's order once and then accused her of lying when she called up to report it. Basically said she had received it but was trying to pull a fast one by saying it was missing
