And that thread title's an order!

Thread 13 now, unlucky for some but hopefully lucky for us.

Keeping things same as last thread - if lost then see message 2 on the first page for the codes/info collated from previous threads (to save slow loading for those using phones).

Second message hasn't been updated with new offers from last thread as you are too chatty for me, will do better next time.

Can anybody help me find a bargain on the Playmobil Fantasy Fairy Castle (5142) please? I can see something similar

INeedThatForkOff · 12/10/2013 18:49

Oops!

I can see something similar on Costco for £69.99 but that's 5997. Does anyone know if there's much difference? The one on Costco isn't listed at all on the Playmobil site.

Best price for the one I'm after so far is £97.something.

Thanks!

I love that Barbie storage box Guitargirl, I might have to suggest that one to the grandparents for DD's ever expanding collection.

My sort of bargain: you know those 'put a £1 or £2 coin in, twist knob and down drops toy' type machines they have in the supermarkets after the checkouts? Well, some of the Tesco ones have some nice little Disney bloody Princess branded make up kits in them. They were £2 in my local Tesco but only £1 in the one I popped into today. I let DD use her pocket money and was very pleasantly surprised. They'd make lovely stocking fillers, especially if you stick to the traditional sock- sized stockings. No idea what other wonders might be contained within these machines, but worth a look.

PS. I'm loving the image of notso 's DS yelling 'you're not Pat' at the grumpy postman Grin

PPS. Come back Isaac

Free delivery until Sunday from HushHush (min spend of £30) with code HH3DEL30.

Sorry, lots of messages, just going through my emails and picking out the offers Grin

Just totted up my savings so far... Over £100!!! Thanks so much everyone, I was feeling awful about this Christmas due to money issues but now I'm feeling much better and it's thanks to this thread.

I'm thinking of getting a personalised calendar for my parents with holiday pictures, has anyone seen any deals?

FarOverTheRainbow · 12/10/2013 19:02

Tesco are doing the playmobil zoo for £20 instead of £40. Does anyone know if its any good?

SpookyTeacakes · 12/10/2013 19:06

this large playmobil zoo is at it's lowest according to camelcamelcamel. But it can't be the one you've seen...(might help someone else though)

SpookyTeacakes · 12/10/2013 19:07

Oh ok the smaller one is £19.98 on amazon and lowest it's been so I assume £20 is a good price Smile

itsonlysubterfuge · 12/10/2013 19:07

INeedThatForkOff It looks like 5142 is an extension set to the 5997, for what I can gather.

iloveholidays · 12/10/2013 19:08

Not really a bargain but Lush have their Christmas stock online...

Alice really glad for you! i've saved lots too, thanks to this thread, and its been a lovely place to hang out too Smile

Vistaprint are currently doing an A4 wall calendar for £6.66. - watch their delivery chrages though, order as early as poss if you're using them to save getting stung for 'express' delivery.

NoYeastInMyMuffin · 12/10/2013 19:08

Snapfish calendars are £15 but if you go through a site like quidco or Top Cashback you get cashback. Tesco are £14.50

Vistaprint has some real bargains on calendars again, go through Top cashback for money back on it. It looks like they are less than a ytenner

Sorry the threads are moving too fast for me, so sorry if it has been mentioned, but www.jadlamracingmodels.com has 20% off till 17th October. Code is OCT13 They sell Lego, playmobil, sylvanians, scalextrix etc. I have used them before and their service is fab.

FarOverTheRainbow · 12/10/2013 19:30

This is the zoo from tesco Zoo

Badvoc · 12/10/2013 19:30

I didn't spooky...
I did it whilst drinking lots of coffee and dh continually asking "there's more!??" with a really dismayed expression on his face :)
Then had to go and buy more wrapping paper!
I'm really finished though. Honest.

NoYeastInMyMuffin · 12/10/2013 19:31

Spooky, that's what I do. It's the first real sign of Xmas, I put on Love Actually, eat mince pies and drink Mulled wine then wrap all the presents. I love it!!

SpookyTeacakes · 12/10/2013 19:32

Oh goodness there's too many different types! Sorry I wasn't helpful Blush
