Thanks Thanks for the TV recommendations, will have a look (online) tomorrow. Fortunately inlaws are giving us money toward it for our Xmas present Smile

no one has mentioned the Tesco 25% off 6 bottles thing.

The Christmas animation short film "prep and landing" is on E4 next Sunday at 8.30am in case anyone who doesn't have it wants to watch or record it (and save £4 instead of buying it)

Be warned Vistaprint aren't including VAT in the price they advertise the calendars for. So that is a nice little surprise once you've done all the work. Plus they tried to say they didn't do economy delivery to where I live, so I had to pay 12.99 express delivery! 12.99! Seems to have gone through without it but we'll see.

Hello lovely bargain people, so DH has said we can buy DD some new furniture (ie bookcase/storage thingy) if I can raise the money through paypal by selling stuff on eBay... All going fairly well and found bookcase on Vertbaudet with 25% already off making it £89. Should be able to get £15 off £20+ spend, but (May be cheekily clutching at straws) are there any other discounts knocking around do you know?!

happylittlebear · 25/11/2013 01:51

A lovely lady in the queue in M&S gave me one of her 20% off for friends and family vouchers today, I used it at the till but it has some codes printed on it for online use if anyone would like one?

I don't know how to PM so I'll put them up here and whoever gets to them first can use them:

VTDX-QJ35FZ-9BRJN4

Z9SH-3R9TQX-FM9K28

FL4M-U9FKSS-BT8XSH

UYAC-YNXE4T-4E9AUX

They are only valid until 25 November

Hope they come in useful for someone, it saved me £42 at the till today!Grin

I ordered my bird scarf on 29/10, I think we all did it on the same day Grin so the 28 days aren't quite up just yet.

Looks like they could be coming from China as well? When I do some banking I'll check if the postage has been taken.

I do get a lot of emails from the company trying to get me to buy windows and conservatories though.....every time I see the name I think, oooh scarf! Then it's a disappointingly un-Christmassy glass product.

Nice lady in M and S, happylittlebear. My Mum does that, and hands out the free coffee vouchers M and S cardholders get as well!

I ordered (finally) my photo-Christmas cards yesterday- Vistaprint rather than my beloved Photobox because of the postage, Vistaprint postage was free if it was the so-slow-a-donkey-could-bring-it-from-China method.

Ok folks. I've got it right this time - amazon black Friday week starts in about 45 minutes (ie 8am)

They already have loads of things listed so you can see what's coming but not with prices on yet. I may or not have noticed there were Kipling bags but loads of other stuff too.

Anybody know of other places doing good promotions this week? Asda did one last year but it's not showing on their mobile site.

SpottyTeacakes · 25/11/2013 07:22

I think other places only do actually Black Friday as opposed to all week

MrsLoveBucket · 25/11/2013 07:30

One month to go! Let's see how much more tat we can buy before the big day! Grin

Sassee · 25/11/2013 07:49

Thank you happy little bear. Has saved me a trip to M&S today will a poorly baby. I only had an in store voucher.

Titsalinabumsquash · 25/11/2013 07:50

Black Friday at Amazon!

GlitteredPinecones · 25/11/2013 07:51

Yay!! Grin I've been excited for this week for ages all year Grin

Justshabbynochic · 25/11/2013 07:52

I've never cared about Black Friday before in my life, and I'm actually from the country that invented it!

So why am I doing finger-flexing stretches, opening several windows for comparison and buying ease, making a pot of coffee and generally getting myself overly excited??!

Oh yes it's the power of the Bargains thread, where things you've never heard of before suddenly become more dear to you than family!

Justshabbynochic · 25/11/2013 07:54

p.s. if anyone sees a posh coffee maker thingy going for pennies (ha!) can you please alert me?

whatareyoueventalkingabout · 25/11/2013 07:54

has anybody got a recommendation for a black pashmina? Cheap but has to be warm and as big as possible?

SpottyTeacakes · 25/11/2013 07:58

I think there's a coffee maker coming on Black Friday in two minutes...

Justshabbynochic · 25/11/2013 08:02

Saw it Spotty but my DP would kill me even at that price!

SpottyTeacakes · 25/11/2013 08:04

It went really quickly!

Justshabbynochic · 25/11/2013 08:11

It did...I hovered over it and nearly clicked but hesitated, refreshed, and it was gone!

DrankSangriaInThePark · 25/11/2013 08:14

The whole Gary Barlow album is d/l for £1.49 on Amazon. It seems to be a mistake, as each song is d/l for 99p. But I just bought it and checked, and you def get the album for £1.49. (on HUKD)

DrankSangriaInThePark · 25/11/2013 08:15

now I feel guilty for robbing money off lovely Gary

but not that much because I usually d/l everything illegally

PigtailsAndPlaits · 25/11/2013 08:16

Thank you everyone RE: the cross rail train have sent all your ideas on to my mum who is very thankful.
I love Amazon black Friday deals and have my eye on the Gruffalo toy storage not that I have any room for it I just want it lol
