18th 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).

Apologies that the long code list isn't fully updated from the last thread - I've been ill and haven't been able to keep up. If there's anything good which I can add to the next OP please will you fill me in and I'll add it? Thanks

are there any ELC codes? only need one thing and delivery is quite high! thanks

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 25/10/2013 17:51

Are you allowed requests yet?!

Either way, anyone got any ideas for SIL DP (got that?!)

I've only met him a few times briefly so no idea what he is into at all really (other than he's Malaysian and a PE teacher?) so any ideas for under a tenner?

farrowandbawl · 25/10/2013 17:52

ELC have free delivery over £50

There's some good things here for men - I haven't looked at the prices though.

farrowandbawl · 25/10/2013 17:59

Sorry

I mean here

The Thorntons Hamper I am waiting for might realistically be called not a hamper but a bloody great container ship of chocolate. Don't think it's on the site yet, it wasn't last time I looked. Full price is £150 (or was last year) The box it comes in is lovely and you can keep your decorations in it after you have eaten the contents and can no longer get off the sofa.

Mckayz · 25/10/2013 18:18

Sorry if this has been mentioned already but I just got DS2 30 books for £15. Its Here

Mamafratelli · 25/10/2013 18:23

Saw the squinkies bundle is back down to £7.50. Big bargain here and free delivery to store.

Brockle · 25/10/2013 18:26

dreamless sleep the boots offer still works for the mugs. I ordered two in Thursday with two diff email addresses Blush I really want two more and DH has said I can use his addresses because of the bargainous. Blush Blush. quality not fantastic but does the job.

Mipe · 25/10/2013 18:28

Have just ordered the playmobil pool even though I already have more than enough presents for dd! Am still tempted by the Tesco squinkies mega pack (back in stock for £7.50) too even though I have no one to give them to :).

Does anyone have any suggestions for a great secret Santa present for £10 please? It is for a teacher, I only know she likes fashion and running (marathons) :).

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 25/10/2013 18:44

Mipe sale on running stuff here

BlackStiltonBoots · 25/10/2013 18:53

Was one of you at a long and dull harvest festival 2pm today in a small village church? I saw someone wearing the bargain black and white blazer from the Hut (looked nice btw)!

LaTrucha I was after that diary, but ended up paying £30 for mine from Debenhams [grr] plus postage. I couldn't be bothered with the palaver of sending it back and ordering elsewhere. That's a great price on amazon.

Reastie hope you're feeling a bit better now Thanks.

ragdollismyname · 25/10/2013 19:11

Hiya long time lurker here!! Loving all the bargains. Ordered a few of the owl necklaces and earrings, the necklaces arrived no problems but i've still not had any earrings. Anyone else had problems?
Noticed they had disney stompeez in Boots for £19.99 but 3for2 with the christmas stuff. Could work out well if you need a few pairs or other gifts for same price.

moomin3 · 25/10/2013 19:14

We have this stamp, a bit pricey but its still going strong after 3 years www.notonthehighstreet.com/englishstamp/product/happy-christmas-from-stamp

WannaSplitAPineapple · 25/10/2013 19:23

I think I need a playmobil pool but I don't think I'd get away with saying its for 15 month old DS.

My phone is still showing all posts as the same colour as the OP's and they are all giant.

WaitMonkey · 25/10/2013 19:25

Ooh. Stilton, I wonder if it was one of us ? Grin

Reastie · 25/10/2013 19:26

black if ever I see anyone in a hut blazer, with a pretend wooden watch on their wrist, and clutching a festive goat I will give them a big festive wave and get very excited, but it'll never happen

Oh, my free boden scarf arrived yesterday, really nice one. Sort of black and grey/white pattern and will be perfect for my technician.

Just watching snowman and snowdog with DD (her choice) and feeling very festive Brew

Oh, and you have all MADE me buy the playmobil water slide thing. It looks like just the thing DD would love (but she's really got enough)

Am about to order this puppet theatre and these Punch and Judy puppets but I need your help please . Do the puppets look an ok size for the theatre? I only really want Punch and Judy but others I've seen are £20 each. Also has anyone seen anything better priced?

Also I really need help finding a stamp which says TOP SECRET it's for going in a DIY spy kit for ds but ones iim finding are pretty pricey IMO.

Thank you!!!

BeaWheesht · 25/10/2013 19:43

Don't know if already mentioned but the mine craft handbook is £4 on amazon

BeaWheesht · 25/10/2013 19:49

Can't see any batman wellies on sports direct but there are v cheap batman trainers, hi tops and even a toothbrush!

BeaWheesht · 25/10/2013 19:49

creepycadence · 25/10/2013 19:52

As someone else mentioned, flipping the thread makes the text go back to normal size and the right colour.

F&F (Tesco) have a good clothes sale on atm. I've just ordered a few dresses and tops which look quite festive. Really good prices and free delivery if you collect from store.

creepycadence · 25/10/2013 19:53
