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

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).

Thanks for camper info, that is a great price - didn't have it in my local Asda but maybe the bigger one... Online it is out of stock.

POP25 for 25% off the works. Says it excludes multibuys.

MistressIggi · 20/10/2013 13:17

Ihopeyoudance I once emailed Verbaudet fed up that the codes didn't work - they emailed back to say was a glitch and should be working now - it did. Otherwise I'm sure they'd take the order over the phone.

I went shopping in RL the other day. It's just not the same anymore, I feel like I'm being cheated buying things at full price!

I'm guilty of that now too reastie!

I've turned my nose up a few times at paying the full RRP on anything, DH is now calling me a bargain snob Blush Grin

JiltedJohnsJulie · 20/10/2013 13:51

Just marking my place too.

missmakes sorry to hear about DHs job. For Fathers Day we filled an empty jar with nuts and dd wrote a label saying, Daddy I'm nuts about you. He absolutely loved it.

Wibblytummy · 20/10/2013 13:58

Sure it's been mentioned but ELC half term half price toys is on. We got DS the big city wooden garage for £25 down from £50. Very pleased with this as DH was seconds away from buying the £65 equivalent from GLTC! Grin

JustBecauseICan · 20/10/2013 14:00

I haven't spent any money since Thursday and it's all your fault bargainhunters. Grin

I aim to put that right this afternoon.

SpookyTeacakes · 20/10/2013 14:11

Trying to survive on normal mobile internet until it's fixed (Wednesday at the earliest ShockSad). I can just about access mn but not hukd so please post any links Wink also if anyone hears if the sainsburys toy sale will be online let me know. Last I heard it wasn't...

New Peppa Pig Christmas DVD £3 at Amazon. Released on 11th Nov

zipzap · 20/10/2013 14:35

I've just come back from asda in MK where they were marking stuff down out of 3 of those shelf-stacking trolleys. All sorts of stuff from toys and puzzles to sheets, car bits, kitchen bits... The lady was marking it 75-80% off as fast as she could. Or you could take unmarked stuff to her to price.

I got a Ben 10 fake Lego kit for £7 instead of £28, hello kitty set of 10 ravensburger puzzles £3.50 (there were also Thomas and octonsught sets), 2 car rug fleeces for 65p each, some fish steaming bags for 12p, etc...

Rubybrazilianwax · 20/10/2013 14:38

I now need to buy a present for the post lady who is very kindly taking the key from under the flower pot and opening the boiler house to put all the parcels from these threads in, then locking it. Grin

JustBecauseICan · 20/10/2013 14:39

extraten for an extra 10% off the Paperchase sale. Smile

TooWetToWoo · 20/10/2013 14:50

What about making some truffles for her Ruby

Marne · 20/10/2013 14:58

Not sure if this has been posted already (this thread moves so fast), Boden have up to 60% off plus some of the 20% off codes are working on top of this.

JustBecauseICan · 20/10/2013 15:11

Do we know which codes Marne? Is it MCES I wonder.....

BloodysocksAndGore · 20/10/2013 15:18

My cheap bag of chocolate orange minis are slowly disappearing. Blush

notso · 20/10/2013 15:18

JiltedJohnsJudy I love that nuts jar idea, if only DS2 wasn't allergic I'd totally pinch it!
What Molton brown codes are floating about please?

MooseyMoo · 20/10/2013 15:26

notso HOUSE10 for £10 off £20 spend. Not as good as last year. I'm waiting in the hope of another code.

MooseyMoo · 20/10/2013 15:27

MCES has expired. What code are you using Marne as only 40% off showing on some selected items

CatAmongThePigeons · 20/10/2013 15:36

I didn't think they had stacking codes after the massive discounts when they accidentally allowed them last year?

Marne · 20/10/2013 15:42

Sorry, its 40% (up to) plus 20% off with z242 or z454 (I used z242). Tbh only a few items are 40%. I bought dd2 a skits and a pair of trousers, was hoping the boots would be on offer Sad.

Cataline · 20/10/2013 15:53

Does anyone have a link to the Lovefilm Groupon deal or has it expired?

ScarerAndFuck · 20/10/2013 15:54

ASDA had kids duvet covers in the sale today, I got DS a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles single cover today for £7.00. They also had shaped cushions for £5.00 and fleecy blankets for £7.00.

They had different themes and some of the other shaped cushions were down to £3.50 but it's all TMNT in our house at the moment. Also got him some TMNT pyjamas for £5.00.

ScarerAndFuck · 20/10/2013 15:57

notso could you use something else in the jar?

Those marshmallow banana shaped sweets and put "I'm bananas about you" or something like that?
