For any Twiglet lovers, this might be a nice little (synthetic leather) present

Twilight pencil roll 70p!

I found it whilst searching for this bag that I found on Ebay to see if it might get here any quicker as a present for a 11 yr old boy;

Ninja Bunny bag

Not sure what I will put in it yet but if it doesn't come before Xmas I can keep it for myself...it will go lovely with my fox bag I am 36 years old, a mum and supposedly grown up teacher but who cares if I can't get away with it

JacquelineHyde are you near a costco or similar wholesaler as you will be able to buy multipacks of selection boxes.

For costco you can get membership as a member of public then as a business.

warehouses.costco.co.uk/membership/

For JJWholesale you dont need to join up, just order online, choose your collection or delivery time.

Funky - thanks for that.

I just see that as spreading the Christmas love

TheOneWithTheHair · 23/11/2013 20:36

Can anyone link to the Black Friday thread please? I can't find it and I need to keep an eye on both threads.

minsmum · 23/11/2013 20:36

Thank everyone haven't been back as have been walking the hell hound. Zipzap that's a lovely idea but said hound has slobbered all over everything so its going in the bin, I've seen where her mouth has been (shudder).

My owl pendant has finally arrived! Ordered it in early/mid October, about 300 threads back Grin It's nice, pretty much as expected and I will go ahead and give it to the friend who I had it in mind for.

Love the thread title Reastie!

Woolworths online has 3 for 2 on toys

nickname (and mulledwine if you bought from Amazon too); email Amazon and ask for the difference back.
I've done it three times in the last few weeks (twice on the same item) and whilst they say that it's not their policy, they should refund you the extra.

My shopping is nearly done.

More stuff arrived today from the works, which finishes a few family members nicely. And an ebay parcel arrived, with a Monsoon shrug for my Mum.

I'm awaiting the ending of another ebay item that other people are thoughtlessly bidding on don't they know it's mine?

Also waiting on the free label from Famous Grouse.

And I need to place an amazon order for some Columbo DVDs for my husband.

Almost forgot to post, Skylanders and Hello Kitty chocolate advent calendars were about 40p in Home Bargains today. In Wilkos they were a quid. (I didn't actually get to buy mine because the schoooooopid fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate Sad )

SpottyTeacakes · 23/11/2013 20:58

I have a confession to make....I bought a truly unbargainous advent calendar for dd Blush it was £6 ShockBlush

Reastie · 23/11/2013 21:03

Tsk tsk spotty how disappointing I may have bought an expensive lindt one for myself as an impulse purchase

IHeartKingThistle · 23/11/2013 21:22

I'm looking out for some lovely toddler cutlery, preferably something that can be personalised - anyone seen anything on their shopping travels?

Guitargirl · 23/11/2013 21:26

missmakesstuff - thank you for linking to that bunny bag on Ebay. I had seen those on notonthehighstreet and I was planning on ordering them after payday but the EBay price is definitely cheaper!

Anyone come across a bargainous Junior Scrabble by any chance?

IHeartKingThistle · 23/11/2013 21:28

NOT CUTLERY! Crockery! Argh why don't I proof read?!

girlsyearapart · 23/11/2013 21:34

Phew found you! Have had an epic iPhone failure & couldn't get online.
Bet I've missed loads of bargains Confused

MulledWineGless · 23/11/2013 21:39

Notso - thanks but it was toysrus.

Worth a go though..... Off to compose a suitable email

Louisey13 · 23/11/2013 21:40

anyone follow Savvy Saver UK on facebook? Seems they have some bargins and money off codes

lucysmam · 23/11/2013 22:10

Grin ThisIsMe dd2 actually cried and dd1 told me to go back to Home Bargains because they were cheaper even though I offered them in Wilko! (training her early Wink Grin )

MulledWineGless · 23/11/2013 22:10

Result on the Furby front!
I realised I had a £15 off £100 toysrus after my skylander order.
So I ordered furby boom plus other gifts which family have asked me to get for DC.
So £15 off furby =£30.99

Just had email for quidco with£5 cash back so he just cost £25.99!

Makes up for my swap force disappointment Wink

lucysmam · 23/11/2013 22:11

Guitar try Home Bargains for Junior Scrabble so long as the fire alarm doesn't go off!

Guitargirl · 23/11/2013 22:22

Thank you lucysmam, I will have a look in our nearest one this week.
