Spooky: when are you planning on going, you should be ok in the week except for the last fortnight before Christmas in my experience.

IHeartKingThistle · 17/10/2013 16:29

Thanks crafty! OK so I've joined topchasback, authenticated my email and clicked through to the site I'm shopping from. It says I can get 8% back but it doesn't say how and it hasn't asked me for any details apart from name and email. Did I do it wrong?

kiwidreamer · 17/10/2013 16:30

Just wondering if anyone else ordered the eBay Christmas pj's that were linked to many many threads ago, still not got mine but I guess that's not too bad as coming from China or HK I can't remember, anyone else waiting on theirs??

kiwidreamer · 17/10/2013 16:34

Oh and the Peepo book set turned up today in the most ridiculously massive box you can imagine!!!! I caved and finally ordered the Magpie mugs after weeks and weeks and before they even arrive my bro and his girlfriend split up!!! So yeah , I'm guessing funky coordinating mugs in their initials are not going to go down well lol

craftynclothy · 17/10/2013 16:34

IHeartKingThistle As long as you clicked the "get Cashback" button on topcashback to get to the site you're shopping from it'll be fine. After you've finished shopping it will update at some point to show your cashback as tracked. It can be a few minutes or a few days - depends on the retailer.

TheOneWithTheHair · 17/10/2013 16:36

Thanks Reastie. :)

Rugbylovingmum dh got some merino wool skins from the work section in Aldi. They are very warm and hold their shape well after washing. They were very cheap. Can't remember exactly how much.

Right off to read back.

HoneyBooBoo, bloody rl got in the way and I missed the opportunity to finish a bargain thread. Angry Sad Twice I've thought I'd done it, then other posters have come on and the threads gone on to 1002 posts. Still plenty of time between now and Christmas.Grin

Hope your still with us Isaac. Thanks

WeleaseWodger · 17/10/2013 16:45

Kiwi dreamer, still waiting on my pjs too, but they did say 20-60 days, so I wasn't going to worry til next month.

Eddas · 17/10/2013 16:45

Jaquelinehyde Boots had slushy cups on 3 for 2 so if you need 6 they'll be just as cheap as when Amazon had them reduced (I think)!

Someone was looking for Moshi Monster things, I have seen lots on the fb selling sites so they're worth a look if you're on fb, plus I think someone on these threads said The Entertainer had a deal on the packs of them.

TheOneWithTheHair · 17/10/2013 16:46

I wanted to say thank you for the links to the starwars stuff. Also for the spicery. I've ordered loads. :)

SpookyTeacakes · 17/10/2013 16:48

Oh no mama we're going the week before Christmas Grin

Wait I thought I'd done it this time Sad I was number 1000 though!

IHeartKingThistle · 17/10/2013 16:49

Thanks crafty!

Has anyone seen any good offers on photo placemats?

Champagnecharleyismyname · 17/10/2013 16:50

I have been lurking and buying, fab thread! I am after an iPod 4th gen for DD2. Where's best to get it from?

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 17/10/2013 16:51

I got my pjs - they're not great quality and very small sized (DS is 3 in January and just about fits in the age 4-5) but cute xmas design and will look good on photos

neddle · 17/10/2013 16:54

If anyone's looking for calendars or diaries for next year, Calendar Club are pretty good. They've got a 15% off sale and delivery is only £1 at the moment.
