Massive Halo bricks set. Reduced from £79.99 to £29.99 at Smyths.

wow is that a standard furby or a boom - such a good price!

My best bargain is probably elc wooden garage in the half price sale and then used a 25% off code so only cost £18

Also got hexbug fish for £4 each by pure fluke - i didn't realise they are usually so much more (until I went to buy one for one of dd friends)

also got furby booms for £44, cheap lego friends horse trailer and the big native american playmobil set for £15

All in all I'm quite pleased with our bargains

Mine were Scooby Doo related at Toys R Us, the mystery mansion reduced from fifty something to £29.99, a 3 for 2 offer with another largish set and the characters, a £5 off voucher (thanks bargain thread!) and free delivery. I paid £45 for everything which was half of what I thought I would.

Iittala Kastehelmi candle holders reduced from £52 to £16 was my very best bargain from Royal Design (now gone up to £38 though). They are like little pieces of art.

Becksondergaard scarf reduced from £33 to £7 on ASOS. It's really lovely.

Gü Chocolate cookbook reduced from £20 to a fiver on Amazon.
It looks very good.

Mine have been a hamper for the inlaws at John Lewis, £75 actual price, but I won £50 of JL vouchers so £25 to us.

Converted tesco vouchers and got four pairs of pjs for nieces and nephews for free essentially.

Sold a pair of good cyclcing gloves for a substantial sum which will in turn buy my father a decent bottle of whisky!

cazza2878 · 23/11/2013 21:18

It was a Furby boom (big old mix up on Amazons part as it was a miss-price where 2 different items got mixed up but they were really good and honoured it).

Just got a Peppa Pig hide and seek toy thing down from £29.99 to £10 in Argos. Got good reviews too so hopefully my niece will like it. Also Mega Bloks Thomas the Tank Engine set half price for £19.99. Not really had to buy much this year but I've definitely been keeping an eye out for bargains more than previous years.
