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

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

I will not mention the last thread.

Thanks moosey can't believe they haven't done the £10 off voucher this year, that has been a mainstay of many of my Christmas/Birthdays for years!

20% off all toys on the woolworths website incl the furby boom for 48 pounds .

Thanks Jilted brill name BTW, love that song. We will be ok but just have had a really shitty year with bereavement and a MC and now with Xmas looming I am a bit worried. The boiler broke down today as well, never rains but it pours! and leaks through the hole in the roof we can't afford to mend

The nuts about you Jar made me cry a bit, but it has been a long week! I am definitely going to do that for DH, I teach ceramics so will make a jar with a lid for him, he likes nuts!

The Peppa Pig DVD looks great, thanks Moosey, have preordered for DD, she now has for Xmas from us:

Peppa Pig headphones £8 from Aldi (so we don't have to listen to Peppa for the 10th time when she watches the DVD)
Peppa Pig socks - Poundland - bargain! They had a few designs, about a week ago
Peppa Pig DVD - £3
Fake Lego castles - £11.50 with postage

We are making her an Elf for the shelf, might buy a secondhand book, plus have the night before xmas book and CD recommended on here I think, for an Xmas eve present.

Just need to find her a nice new toothbrush (poundland probably!) and some Pirate underpants - she really wants some and we promised we would ask Santa to exchange her pull ups for some (she is 3 and has issues with withholding poo so still in pull ups)

We are probably going to tell MIL about the Kiddizoom for £29, as she would love that and MIL usually spends about £50 on her, I reckon the rest could go into savings for her then.

I will make her a basket for her scooter and she will no doubt get lots of other bits from family, so that will be her done.

Just got to sort DH now, he has a voucher for all you can eat buffet in the hilton canary wharf for the two of us, a subscription for a cycling magazine so far, both from Groupon. Will make him some cufflinks, apart from that I think it will be all.

Sorry, wittered on a bit...

One code I found was for a personalised book from penwizard - £2 off 14.99, so not amazing value, but might be a nice present - enter code 919897.

Don't know if it's been mentioned already, but amazon has annuals half price today. Just got ds' Beano for £4. They didnt get much cheaper than that last year.

scarerandfuck bananas are a brilliant idea, DH loves bananas so perfect!
I've been sitting going through foodstuffs trying to find what else would work. We're plums/raisins/tea bags about you didn't have the same ring to it

Glad to help notso. Not sure what made me think of bananas. It definitely wasn't the box of chocolate ones I bought in lidl and ate by accident earlier. Oh no.

Anyone have any ideas for cyclists? DH has just bought himself a road bike, whatever that means, and he has a phone app that tells him how far he's travelled and on what terrain. And a puncture repair kit. I'm not sure what else a cyclist might want or need.

lights? cahin? how many cal youv burned? a

you can buy straps tha th old your phone..

so he can get to it easly or listen to music/hands free talk?

Groupon have about 7 hours left on an online children's story writing course for £12, might be a useful gift for an aspiring teenage writer? Have just bought the course for myself - hope this helps someone!

Thank you to whoever posted about the kiddies apron & chefs hat in Aldi. Popped in earlier and they still had a few designs left.

Has anyone seen toy robots but I'm looking for quite a big one that can walk and maybe have some kind of voice command? Any one? I'm desperate, I've looked online but can't find nothing

Thanks for the info regarding the Woolworths saleBrockle. Does anyone have a free delivery code by any chance/any other promo code for Woolworths? TIA :)

missmakestuff primark had some pirate themed pants in yesterday. Obviously they are in the boys section as girls don't like pirates & are a bit boyish, again girls only like pink but it may be helpful!

I may also ask u a clay / about pottery stuff question later if you don't mind?

marne... I had just done a Boden order without the code, and then saw your post. I called them and they added it on saving me another £10! Just wanted to say thanks

cataline Lovefilm 6 mnths £10

sarahandfuck- my dh is a cycling geek and I got him a cadence monitor for his b'day. He absolutely loves it. It tells him cadence, miles, time and speed. But get a wired one, rather than wireless. It's a bit of a faff to put on, but the wireless ones are terrible at cutting out because of interference. this one

Thanks numberfloutyfour I will have a look at it.

marne thanks for code, it worked for me. I got a shaggy lined zip up for DD (these are so lovely and comfy), a pointelle tshirt, and new pjs for DS

littlemissmaker you can get the kiddizoom plus for £24 at Smyths using primary5off

Any ELC free delivery codes floating about? Or any ELC codes at all?

Thank you for that Boden code tip. Just bought a few things to pack away for Christmas.

Thanks Marne Got 20% off a couple of items from Boden and a clearance item (no discount on that though). One will do as a Xmas present to me from my Mum (she gave us cash to get something with). Actually I bought craft stuff with some of the cash so I might just say two of the Boden tops were from her as she'd probably prefer to buy me clothes. I'll just wrap them all up so it seems like I have more presents please say I'm not the only one

sarahandfuck lidl always has great cycling stuff in. The padded bum cycling shorts from there are good

mismake hope next year is better for you.

There's whispers on a boden fb group about code stacking alongside 40% off in sale at the minute.....am off to investigate

OK, couldn't get codes to stack and ended out getting in the sale this cat skirt for £14.40 when full price it was £24. I couldn't resist . DD has a similar one but with rabbits on and she ALWAYS gets comments on how people love it when she wears it!

Reastie, that cat skirt is £18 when I click on it? It's so cute!

missmakesstuff They had Peppa pig toothbrushes in B&M the other week two different ones in a pack for £1
