Christmas bargain thread 18 - a goat for all seasons

[Reastie]

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

If I’ve missed anything good from any last threads onto the list please let me know.

Are there any h&m codes anyone knows about? All 3 dc desperate for new clothes and there's a few bits in there I d like to stock up with.

Sneakret. All the foot spas seem to be reduced on Argos.

Reastie, when my Nanna had dementia she loved:

A teddy bear with a bright pink bow that spoke when you pressed it's ear (recorded message of my kids saying Love You Nanna)

Tissue paper flower craft set (v simple)

A photo mug with recent pictures of her on it with different relatives. So when we visited (and introduced ourselves each time) we could show her we were on her mug with her and she trusted who we were a little bit more.

Though now my Grandad has dementia and none of those would be suitable for him - it's such a shitty illness and so hard not to patronise sufferers. You have my sympathies x

Can't remember who wanted a magic set but Hobbycraft have a large Marvin' s magic set in store and in their brochure so probably on line - half price at £12.50. You could also try my code from last thread which gave 20% off if it still works and click and collect t for free delivery. Mine took 8 days but they rang me when it arrived

Hobbycraft 20% off MBXM24T may still work

Any 'Next' codes about? Need a suit ordering and cant face paying full price before looking for a bargain now addict?

I am mentally spending my nectar points! Even off to another store to use them tomorrow as it has a much larger selection.

Reastie how about a tangle creation I have been looking for a present for an autistic friend who loves tactile things and from what I have read its also fantastic for older people with alzheimer's.

20% off M&S coats until 8am.

NeedToEmigrate, there's a card for 20% off h&m in this month's glamour magazine (mag is £2 but comes with a free nail polish worth £11 and a body shop gift card too). Not sure if you can use it online too - have misplaced mine . If you are able to use it online there's a code above posted earlier today for free delivery.

It might be a once only code as doesnt say but 4UGGW in VERY gives you 20 credit when ordering over 100 (for those with credit accounts with them - might be worth opening one then paying back the full amount for 20 for nothing :D)

other codes mentioned at the beggining of the thread all seem to be expired for Very - 4R4VT and 4J4JW

The Entertainer had some good deals today. All their science sets were £6 which seemed a bargain half price. I got jenga boom for £12.50 at 30% off too.

Needtoemigrate I have a one use 20% discount card for H&M which I can't afford to use spent all my money on throws and frozen goodies! pm me if you'd like it and I can post it to you?

I've just joined quidco - have downloaded the app but can't see anything about the £50 challenge. What do I do next?

reastie my niece worked with dementia patients and soft toys are very popular, as ninja said upthread.

They do seem to invoke some sort of memory and bring comfort to the patient,

Thanks king thistle will check it out- he was looking at the crayola one on smyths but it was very small, he had to stoop down to reach it!

Wherethecoffee- would love that if u pm me thank u so so much !

Any good deals on magformers floating about??

Really annoyed to have missed the toot toot animals as I had them on stock alert but didn't see the email in time! Damn!

Saw this Yankee Candle Peppermint Swirls Medium Jar Gift Set (really nice Christmassy box and very minty smell) in Clinton Cards yesterday for £9.99, also available online (+ deliv costs).

Oh no, keepcalmanddrinkwine, what a 'mare. Hope your bank refund you soon as.

clr- the quidco £50 will be automatic if you shop at so many retailers who are participating, the ones which are have a wee blue parcel on their merchant page.

I think I might need a window box bird feeder for my Mum and/or the cats which seem to gravitate towards her.

Argh just wrote out a whole post and my stupid phone froze and I lost it
