Well no... I like finding nice reasonably priced things and stockpiling... but for example the birdhouses, you find them and then suddenly it's ripped off and put on sites. I could have put anything I found on a site but didn't because I considered it helping out Mums.

I understand exactly what you mean goth

JerseySpud · 17/06/2014 21:33

Aaaah i get you now Goth, i was a bit confused (its easily done around here)

Is it too early to get the twitch? I am now thinking frozen toddler dolls!!

ItStillLooksLikeRainDear · 17/06/2014 23:11

I've been twitching for a while nick I promise you I haven't bought the Anna, Elsa, Olaf & Sven for DC already I'm lying btw

Can't link and don't have time to read thread so apologises if been mentioned. The www.dotcomgiftshop.com has some real bargains in the clearance section. Jewellery reduced to as little as 69p stickers 10p a sheet, jam making kits, pens, mugs etc.

ValiumQueen · 18/06/2014 06:06

This is an open forum though. Anyone with any sense would come here to look at the bargains found by the mighty MNers.

I do not have broadband at the moment so I cannot follow any links or look at the Facebook page so hope I am getting the gist of the convo right.

Last year a bargain would be posted and a few minutes later they would be sold out or price would increase.

Is anyone else wary of putting their debit card details into Aliexpress?

It doesn't use PayPal and I don't have a credit card so don't have that added protection.

MayhemMostDays · 18/06/2014 10:03

It's the deciet though isn't it.

Nothing wrong with Spud being admin on a fb page and sharing the deals and letting us know she is doing that.

Sharing deals on fb and then linking through from here, without acknowledging that it's your page that your linking to feels wrong.

From MSE - from Wed 11 Jun – Fri 11 Jul, new Picanova customers can get a 30cm x 20cm (so A4ish in size) personalised canvas print for free by entering the code CANVAS4YOU online at Picanova.

Users just pay £6.49 delivery (20% off the standard delivery price).

This is a cracking offer, as it's usually £27.40 for the canvas plus £7.99 standard delivery

Thanks Soontobesix - just ordered some more Xmas pressies from that website! Smile

MayhemMostDays · 18/06/2014 10:24

USB mug warmer This could be good for a female office worker in a secret santa (or a man who likes pink)

JerseySpud · 18/06/2014 13:43

To be fair most of the time im taking deals posted on the group i admin and posting them here Blush

WisemansBridge · 18/06/2014 14:08

Doc Mcstuffins bag 3.99 reduced from 9.99

here

JaquelineHyde · 18/06/2014 14:37

I don't think it matters where a deal comes from as long as it is a deal.

If you are quick enough/lucky enough then you will get the deal, sometimes you won't that's true of every deal and sale on the planet.

Lets just shop people! Grin

worm77daisy · 18/06/2014 14:53

M&S have got 20% across clothing including school uniform today. Not very Christmassy but might help save some pennies for September.

YaMasYaDaWithAWigOn · 18/06/2014 15:04

I hope this isn't going to turn into another HUKDgate!

HaveYouHeardOfGoogle · 18/06/2014 15:07

YaMas - exactly what I was just thinking. Now back to the bargains...

MayhemMostDays · 18/06/2014 15:29

It could be breaking site rules.

To link to a page without declaring an interest.

MayhemMostDays · 18/06/2014 15:31

I guess it depends if the person is making money from the fb page or not. If they are then it's advertising to link through and they should be paying MN.

JaquelineHyde · 18/06/2014 15:56

I don't understand...maybe I missed something? Who is advertising anything/making money from this thread (feel a bit thick now).

I absolutely agree with mn rules about advertising but I've missed where that has happened.

I just want to avoid all the ridiculousness of last year, this thread is a lifesaver for some people. I don't know how I would manage Christmas without it. It makes me want to send Reastie Thanks every day Grin

Reastie · 18/06/2014 16:25

I'm confused! Confused

GrownupGoth · 18/06/2014 16:27

I love this thread too, I'm a fantastic bargain hunter and always have been. If only I could have a job as such!

I'm sort of sorry I said anything, but the birdhouses, shopper bags and other things I posted were just too much of a coincidence.

I just think that taking links from here by an admin to their own site is slightly disingenuous, when I don't post deals from other sites. Obviously it's open and all but it smacks of ill play. If everyone else disagrees then I completely accept that. I won't be posting things that I find though.

lucysmam · 18/06/2014 16:34

Has anyone seen any discounts/bargainous micro scooters? We finally decided on them last night so am hunting for the cheapest price I can get Smile
