Matalan is website currently down, whoever was asking about the Christmas duvet link. Though I'm not sure if the advent duvet is still available.

Pizza pasta, Ikea do have goats in, but silver or red wool ones rather than the straw ones of last year (as far as I saw).

Amazon have the Brio Monorail station reduced from £59.99 to £19.50.

Oh AuntieMaggie, that sounds like such a pain, not what you need on Christmas eve! Funnily enough I had an almost identical issue with the Body Shop last Christmas and there were a few posters in the bargain threads experiencing the same. You'd think companies would allow for the extra orders placed in December! And also that employees would use their common sense sometimes. One of the reasons I'm planning to have everything done by the end of this month.

Thank you NoCuts for the Frozen advice .

Thanks Pamela!

Thread 17! Blimey

I've seen a few items I fancy on zulily... Anyone have a code? Google isn't helping me this time! I have a £10 off £30 matalan online voucher if anyone wants it, please PM me

My kids are desperate for the john lewis penguins, does anyone know if there is a way to get an alert when they are back in stock?

Thanks.

PizzaPasta my sister mentioned the IKEA goats are fabric this year, and about £25 she said. Can't remember how much I paid last year, but can't imagine it was that much! The wicker one takes pride of place in her kitchen, and over the last 11 months has had bunny ears, a sombrero and sunglasses and devil horns. We decided he is a 'festive' goat rather than a Christmas goat - makes him a goat for all seasons

billings I'm sure if you have a John Lewis account you can set up an email alert for when the penguins come back into stock?

Yes marme I've already booked morrissons last week my xmas slot I've got a reminder set up to amend order as one year I forgot and ended up with lots of loo roll, washing powder and turkey that lasted us 6months!

I have had an email back from glamour magazine to say they have received extra body shop cards from their printer and have put one in the post to me (must have picked up my work address from teh bottom of my email) and sorry for the rare omission.

I had to prod them by emailing again to ask what was happening as a week had passed since I sent the info they asked for.

Will report back again if/when the card actually appears...

And hi everyone!

I've got a John Lewis account & can't see how to set up a penguin alert. Anyone know?

place marking til I can catch up on new thread properly

A know its a little soon, but can I nominate "a goat for all seasons" as a possible next thread name?

Ooh blushing that I made the thread title, and I swore ( my mother would not approve)

I think body shop are quite good to their word RJ I didn't receive my Loyalty card and they chased it up and also emailed me few days later with number. Another time they where out of stock of item so refunded me, but it was a free gift with purchase I told them and they said they would look into it, a week later I received it.

Finally got something to add! Hope it's not been mentioned already, sorry if it has.

This month's (December) Elle magazine has a l'Occitane promo on page 206, either take the page into store to claim 4 free hand creams and purse with any purchase or use code ELLEHC online with a min spend of £25 for the same freebie. Not valid in dept stores unfortunately.

The hand creams and purse have French illustrations on which look like they are from one of my favourite French illustrators/writers Penelope Bagiou, but it doesn't specify... Might be a good gift for a travelling friend or language student anyway!

I can't see how to do the penguin alert either. If anyone figures it out, please report back!

Boots has 15% off iTunes vouchers

B&M has tonnes of toys in now, lots of new Peppa stuff being added in my local one today.

I need wine for my dad (red ) and ideas for dd2& dh and to stop buying for dd3 and ds

£25 off £50 spend online and in store with Bodyshop. Code 14671

Sorry if this isn't allowed because it's off topic, but I've got my DS's a HUDL each for Christmas (thanks Tesco boost!) they've each got headphones too.

I'm thinking of setting up an audiobook app/account for them and getting a voucher if possible.
Can anyone recommend a particular service to use?

Also, I'm going to pre install some apps from the Google play store (and get another voucher each)

I'm going to put the Kindle app on there and Netflix, YouTube.

Any others that are good for a (v.young) 10 year old and an 8 year old?

Quidco has a few bonuses to earn. Through buying and through some tasks. Quite good earners.
I need to refer someone for one of mine if anyone is interested.

Ooh. Dh might not go for Silverstone but maybe I could get him an 'experience'.
