A happy friendly bargain christmas present ideas thread. Does what it says on the tin.

[Reastie]

I hope . I’m getting really uninspired with thread titles aren’t I

I will not mention the last thread.

15th 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).

Letterbox is now 60% off everything - assuming there's anything left!

Jersey the printers are gone now. If they were ever really there...

I've just been emailed by argos due to the amount of times I had looked at sylvanian families. The regency hotel is down to £87.99 from £110 here

I received the cath kidston necklace this morning. A real bargain! It comes with a nice little ck paper bag and ribbon. That's sil sorted!

Oral-B Kids Electric Toothbrush - Disney Princess and Cars
£17.49 from £34.99

My snitch came today....highly recommend it. Took ages as it came from China but I am delighted with it!

Dammit :( I need to buy a printer soon

coffee pod thingies I think somebody was looking for them? They're £20 :)

not a bargain per se but this pencil case is gorgeous. £7.99 plus £2.99 delivery. My DD is going to love it!!

Quality Save have some little transformers THAT ACTUALLY TRANSFORM for £1.99. Great stockingfillers for either man or boy.

Do you know what I don't understand? Lots of you mention husbands finding out about purchases. Why the embarrassment/ shame re: doing the Christmas shopping? Someone's gotta do it!

20% off at BHS
Onesies and slippers for my godchildren !

Toothbrushes from Argos btw

Frisky this set of three baskets these and this looked really nice in RL (I've seen the HB ones in RL also) more expensive but with the 20% code would bring them down a bit. They also had a lovely heart one with a lid for 8 pounds. Might be worth a look in your local one.

lilo thanks for that info re what happened with your card

MistressIggi Oh no! Did you get 'an ear bashing'?

You see, lilolil, you need to keep up with this thread and just order things as they are posted, then you won't have that problem...

My DH has actually been encouraging me to use this thread and is very pleased that we are almost done. December is very busy for us and it'll be lovely to do Christmassy stuff with the family instead of having shopping runs and crises!

Not to mention the fringe benefits, like Flavourly and some of the samples I've had!

Question for CamelCamelCamel experts please!

I keep getting notices that an item that retails for £108 has dropped to £55 by a third party... but when I log into amazon, it says

£55.00+ £51.87 UK delivery

WTF?!

Is this a common tactic among 3rd party sellers?

The charge does appear all the way through the checkout process, though I'm afraid to click all the way through (in case it does accidentally go through).

Protectivemother Its the postman who is making me feel guilty had another load of parcels arrive today.

Dh laughs when he knows ive been shopping. Though I did feel guilty yesterday only cos we're really badly off and got other issues going on that means we should b saving not spending lots. Though we are saving in the long run as wont have to spend much later on nearer christmas.

I would hazard a guess at "Yes", Wodger. You may just need to take off your third party notification (or set it to 54.95 to take that particular "offer" out of consideration). Could also be worth emailing camelcamelcamel to suggest an enhancement to their software to take postage into account.

I just tried letterbox site. I think you lot broke it.

If you prefer Lorraine Pascale instead of the Delia cake book in op (I have bought 2 of them, so a fan of any kind of cake!), her baking made easy book is only £4.85 (free p&p) on amazon:

www.amazon.co.uk/Baking-Made-Easy-Lorraine-Pascale/dp/0007275943/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1382100365&sr=8-4&keywords=lorraine+pascale

Every time Letterbox is mentioned on here the site crashes.

Sorry if this has been already posted, haven't read the whole thread.
Home Bargains have Sylvanian Cedar gift sets which include the house, a family which I think are mice and a car, its £49.99 and claims to retail for £99.

I just ordered a Moshi Monster snap on watch from Amazon for £5.09 which I thought was a bargain. Ideal present for 4/5 year olds.
