Musical christmas tree tins are on offer in M&S for £5. Got some more to add to the ones I already had! It is my standard add on Christmas gift this year!

tipsy

bettythebuilder · 09/12/2014 14:28

Thank you cookiefiend for the Amazon code, dh has put a £17 book on his wishlist which I thought was rather profligate but he really wants it, so well chuffed to get a fiver off it!

Thanks everyone for the help with wheaty-heaty things, I'll try the Works first as have one in town.

Earlytorise · 09/12/2014 14:32

Can the Amazon code be used more than once but on different accounts that use THE SAME credit card Confused?

tipsyloolah · 09/12/2014 14:33

That is an excellent idea zipzap! I was asked to do raffle prizes and they specified Frozen stuff, but I will suggest Olafs to them as well - thank you!

Truprint's personalised Calendar offer has been extended until 16th December according to an email- code is FROSTY (buy 1 get 50% off, buy 2 get 60% off)

The Works have 20% off and free delivery on orders over £10 with code SAVE20 today (they do free click and collect, too, so I might give that a go!)

HELP! I suddenly need two children's xmas jumpers (9 and 4 yrs) Need to be purchasable on line and arrive within a week! and cheap...(obvs) Smile

Jagsy · 09/12/2014 14:43

RJ, don't know if you have bought it already but FIFA 15 is £24.99 at Smyths Toys, lowest price I have seen it.

Jagsy · 09/12/2014 14:48

Sorry ignore above post, doesn't apply to xbox, it's for DS version.

lynniep · 09/12/2014 14:59

Thanks for the amazon code. DS1 suprised us with a christmas request for an extra xbox 360 controller the other night (he hasn't actually asked for anything else so we've had to wing it on the pressie front) Going to get DH to log into his account tonight so I can get them the DVD they want too using that code.

ihatethecold · 09/12/2014 14:59

If anyone is going in Boots or super drug today can you see if they have iTunes vouchers on offer please?

Earlytorise · 09/12/2014 15:08

lynniep do you and your dp use the same credit card but on different accounts too?

halestone · 09/12/2014 15:15

Where is the Amazon code please i've looked back on the thread and cannot find it anywhere. Me and DP are only buying token gifts this year and have set a limit, i would like to buy him the fast amd furious box set which is £16 on Amazon.

Also does anyone have any ideas what to get a 71 year old active grandad. I cannot think of anything at all.

BonzoDooDah · 09/12/2014 15:28

Thank you thank you LittleMissSparklyGreenTinsel Furby ordered (£39.95) and delivered FREE from Entertainer by adding a bit of tat small £1 thing to the order!
(There were absolutely none in Home Bargains when I looked)

LinzerTorte · 09/12/2014 15:29

Amazon code is MCARD5OFF. Have just bought three paperbacks for £5 - thanks cookiefiend. Flowers

Earlytorise · 09/12/2014 15:29

halestone MCARD5OFF is the code, you need to have a mastercard attached to your Amazon account.

halestone · 09/12/2014 15:31

Thank You, i have no MastercardSad

Earlytorise · 09/12/2014 15:33

Same card on more than one account didn't work for me, though I decided to use the one use code I got sent when I bought a £20 gift card- Thanks for posting that one FluffyRedSocks

Elvish · 09/12/2014 15:36

I have received an Ali Express order this morning, these dolls.

I'm very happy with them, they look very much like the official Disney ones (which are £12 each) but the collars on the dresses are a bit off center, so I'm assuming these are seconds. They have Disney tags and paper labels.

I ordered on the 20th November, so 2.5 weeks for delivery.

Elvish · 09/12/2014 15:38

Has anyone tried the Mastercard Amazon code with kindle books? Would be good to add some onto FILs kindle for him...

BornToFolk · 09/12/2014 16:42

Has anyone seen any nice and bargainous ladies' socks? For my mum who wants "ordinary socks" Grin

tipsyloolah · 09/12/2014 16:52

I posted upthread about itunes cards, but not sure if the offer is still on Ihatethecold.

cookiefiend · 09/12/2014 16:53

Elvish I think you can only buy kindle books from the Amazon account tied to the kindle and no as gifts- so only if it is your Amazon account linked to it. Not sure whether it works on kindle books- I assume so.

Glad everyone got some use of the code- I was pleased. Xmas Smile

zipzap · 09/12/2014 17:34

Re nice women's socks - TKMaxx is my go to place for decent but cheap socks - often have identical ones to those in John Lewis for at least half or more off the price!

If anything I reckon the selection in store is better and cheaper usually (although as with all things tk maxx they can have good and bad days!) but here's the online selection...
