Sorry, use voucher code SANTA to get the discount. Says first 100 customers only.

WhereBeThatBlackbirdTo · 25/11/2013 10:31

TooWet - I had to keep trying but finally got there.

I've just tried to buy something on the Black Friday deals but my son has also bought a voucher which has credited to the same account. I cancelled quickly - hope I haven't used his £10 Blush

AndiMac · 25/11/2013 10:34

A quick Black Friday offer that may appeal to families is Dobble Card Game down to £6.99 for the next 2 hours. Regular price was £9.99 before, but that's still 30% off. Very good reviews on Amazon.

andimac try boots for dressing gowns - have had fab non-themed ones from there for my dc. The first one is now over 4 years old, has been passed on from ds1 to ds2, been hammered worn nearly every day and still looks as good as new. It was designed so it was like a little dinosaur - eyes and little zigzag ridge in the hood, very cute and had matching pjs.

They also had some that were plain / patterns like stars or spots or stripes if you didn't fancy the dinosaur route! Not sure what patterns they have this year.

Quick thanks to HappyLittleBear for the M&S codes upthread, I used one to get 20% off part of FIL's present. Thanks

I have no bargains to add as usual but just want to say thanks to you all, these threads have been amazing.

Mum2toomany · 25/11/2013 10:41

Any book people code? Plzzzzz

downdownupdown · 25/11/2013 10:46

AndiMac - Have ordered Bobble Thanks

downdownupdown · 25/11/2013 10:47

*Dobble! Blush

notso · 25/11/2013 10:47

I've just bought the Dobbles game it has been in my basket for a while. Nearly got stung by the postage default though!

Happymum32 · 25/11/2013 10:54

I am in need of some help. I am looking for some wooden dolls house furniture that is not too expensive. Any tips would be great.

Also their is a great website that is like a child groupon called little bird. They do not have loads of deals but in the past have got some nice bits from there. www.littlebird.co.uk/

Happymum32 · 25/11/2013 11:00

www.littlebird.co.uk/user/register?source=37376#sthash.jeclsbKa.dpuf just seen on little bird that i can refer people so if you fancy buying anything then use this. Tell me if i am being a bit cheeky :)

AmIGoingMad · 25/11/2013 11:00

I'd second that on the boots mini club dressing gowns- they're brilliant!

How do the Black Friday deals work on amazon? Do they just alert you to when its going down in price and you just keep an eye to check what the deal price is then?

sweetkitty · 25/11/2013 11:03

Squishy cups arrived today I was going to use them as stocking fillers but they are too big.

Got DD1s one direction tour bus for £20 using Argos vouchers yesterday so now only need to get her a Flicker scooter, if anyone has any good deals, she's 9 1/2 so need a large one.

Oh also need a personalised photo frame for DCs adopted uncle.

WhereBeThatBlackbirdTo · 25/11/2013 11:09

Just to warn everyone - I just bought an Amazon lightning deal (Times Atlas for £17.99) which came up at £45.78 when I came to pay, so check your final price.

Amazon were very good, rang me back immediately and have charged the £17.99 it was advertised for. Excellent customer service!

Bertiebutterfly · 25/11/2013 11:18

Hi has anyone got a 20% off online M&S code? I can't get into store today and am gutted as have loads to buy!!! Thanks

DrankSangriaInThePark · 25/11/2013 11:18

I can't get the bespoke to work either....(or I'm going to receive about 86 of them....)

notso · 25/11/2013 11:18

AmIGoingMad you have to look at the deal you want and see what time it starts, it counts down then as soon as it shows click like mad! I have learned to click even before I know the price as you have 15 mins to buy it at that price once it's in your basket.
If you miss it you have a chance to go on the waiting list to see if anyone chucks it back.
It's very addictive, and worth shopping around for prices before hand if there is something expensive you want as Amazon often put the RRP to claim big discounts but as we know from this thread we rarely pay the RRP!

JaquelineHyde · 25/11/2013 11:18

Yes always double check before you checkout last year I had a few glitches at the final checkout but Amazon always honoured the deal price.

clux73 · 25/11/2013 11:20

PM me if anyone needs an M&S code

FarOverTheRainbow · 25/11/2013 11:21

The entertainer have sent me a code for £20 off there furby boom I only valid today if anyone wants it PM me Smile

JaquelineHyde · 25/11/2013 11:21

I just bought Dobble after seeing it recommended here. The DC are really in to games at the moment so I'm trying to encourage it as much as possible to counteract all the electronic stuff they seem to love.

Any other board/card game recommendations gladly received...Has anyone tried the family trivial pursuit yet?

notso · 25/11/2013 11:28

JaquelineHyde I don't know how old your DC are my oldest two are 13 and 9 but for the past couple of years we have enjoyed playing the Logo Game, headbandz, Pictureka and the Yes No game.
Linkees is supposed to be really good, am hoping to get that this year.

DrankSangriaInThePark · 25/11/2013 11:31

45% off Body Shop from 2pm today for a week, with XMASJOY

JaquelineHyde · 25/11/2013 11:38

The dc are 8, 8, 6 and 6 months, although I don't think the 6 month old will be joining in much Grin

notso · 25/11/2013 11:42

All full price women's dressing gowns now half price at Debenhams, 20% off Mens and Kids.
For free delivery add a cheap beauty item and use code SHA5 apparently or free delivery to store. Seen on HUKD.
Good thing to note, the last couple of click and collect items I have got from Debenhams have come with a voucher to get 10% off in-store on that day it works on reduced items too.
