Christmas bargain thread 14 - the one ode to Tim

[Reastie]

Just who is Tim?

As previously, if you shot a link in the OP links isn’t working/no longer in date, please let me know by posting in bold so I can easily see to update

MN secret santa donation and nominations now open here if you fancy using any excess bargains to send some Christmas cheer to fellow mners.

If anyone sees anywhere doing cut price Octopods can you let me know :) DS has a birthday just before Christmas and we want to get him something he really wants to make it special.

sylvannian families camper van reduced from £40 to £17.99 here - it's a lightening deal though so only for the next hour or so

I got the camper van, cottage and cat family in the end. DD announced yesterday that she now needs Sylvanian Families so it seemed like fate!

Does anyone know if the body shop code is for all items? I have some bits in my basket (polar bear sponge) and it doesn't seem to apply the discount?

Duelling I often see Octonauts stuff in places like B and M and Home Bargains.

Belated to roslet for the Playmobil code on the last thread. I go away for 24 hours and everyone's waaaay ahead of me.

I got that Frozen chocolate advent calendar in Home Bargains, it was either 79p or 99p.

I cant get the body shop code to work either

There is still quite a lot of reduced sylvanian families stuff on the John Lewis site. No idea how prices compare to the Amazon lightning deals. Those little creatures genuinely freak me out

Thanks for the body shop recommends. I fear I am about to spend some serious money

I've just received a Molton Brown email - 25% off orders until Sunday with the code UKFRIENDS if that's of use to anyone?

I received my Flavourly beers yesterday. Definitely worth the £4. Forget who asked, but I ordered the sample box last year and had no problems getting this to go through. Can't help with anyone having problems, though, not tech savvy.

I would, however, like to nominate Virtual's 'sheep loving DNan' for next thread title

My husband cleaned the laptop yesterday and has deleted my Christmas Spreadsheet... waaah!

Thanks Elvish & BreakOut, I think she's got Ballet Shoes but the School for Stars looks right up her street. I'm so clueless for girls this age, DD is only 3 so for older ones all I know is boy stuff!

Sorry I'm a bit late to the Christmas party and I'm sure this has been discussed already but my email from photobox says last day of 70% sale - I think this was the lowest pre-Xmas discount last year? So I am ordering today. A4 calendars are £6.59 if you order 5+ which I think is pretty good.

Just called LaRedoute to chase the order from last week I used the £15 off a £20 spend plus free gift. It's been cancelled. They are saying that the code wasn't valid [hmmm] and all orders placed using this code have been cancelled . As if I should be pleased, the person on the phone was pleased to tell me I haven't been charged!

OutThereLil I didn't get the choice - perhaps because it was the 2nd time I'd complained - my original order never arrived.

Oh Jenni.... breathe!!!

So the woman in John Lewis Glasgow was plugging this 'BARGAIN' yesterday evening. Aparrently every house needs one for festive drinks and it is a snip at a mere £10. I was not the only shopper going .

JL £10 BARGAIN ICE CUBE TRAY.

Apparently my phone does not like spelling apparently!

I've got. 20% off elc code if anyone wants it? Pm me.

Helpful, aren't they Jenni

I had mine on my phone, so you would think it would be safe. I asked DH to look at it as I was having problems with storage, and he deleted the app because he 'didn't think I used it'. Er, yes, I did, that's why it was recently updated Live and learn and buy yourself some of the M&S wine to make it up to you

I couldn't get the code to work for bodyshop either.The code 'welcome' that I got by going through topcashback, which also gives 8% cash back from their link, gets you 25% off and was working, although I had to change Internet browser to use it as I couldn't undo the first code and couldn't find how to clear the cookies on firefox.

It wasn't working on the lovely £50 beauty advent calendar that they are doing though as that's excluded from all promotions.

weemee - according to the La Redoute website 4730 should give you £15 off off your first order if you are a new customer or 8428 should give you 40% off your order.

Are any of those any good to you?

I placed an order last week and can't remember the codes but got about 33% off and free P&P and a really nasty free gift of a hideous bag and purse.

I got an email from Amazon this morning for £5 off a £30 order if you link your Facebook account to your Amazon account.

Can anyone help? I was browsing the Smyths website and spotted this dora toy. DD2 would love it so I was going to buy this, a dora mermaid for DD1 and a mini micro scooter for DD2 (should get free delivery as over £39). My problem is the Dora van is out of stock for home delivery and our nearest store is a 45min drive away. Has anyone seen a similar Dora toy anywhere? I can't find it anywhere online. Also if I don't order from Smyths where is the best place to buy a microscooter - I know they don't do offers but any free gifts etc? I think amazon is cheap for the Dora mermaid but if anyone has seen a better deal please let me know. Thanks!
