[GodReastieMerryGentlemen]

No exciting thread title this time I’m afraid...

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.

Ok, need some help/ideas please.
Have bought pil a week at center parcs with us and kids for Christmas but don't have anything to give them on the day? Can't afford much more now and they have a lot so don't need anything but any ideas what we could get as 'token' gifts that could link to the holiday? Was thinking hamper type things but bargainous and no idea where to start!
Massive thanks in advance!

Good idea iheart

They have some American apparel ones on eBay which I think are supposed to be good quality

Crafty how about a book each, wine and sweets to take with them?

Please has anyone got a matalan discount code?! The item I've been after for ages had just comeback into stock!

Playmobil Fairies Take along Unicorn Land is now £14.99 at Amazon. Not worth the RRP of £35, but a really sweet set for the current price.

Ladies, can anyone post me a link to the instructions for the google goggles? `i'm getting lost trying to find them...

Caved and bought DS a Kindle Fire !

craftcraftsrson I have a discount code for £10 off a £30 spend at matalan if that's any use? Pm me if so.

Pamela thank you! Have pm'd you

Soap and Glory day! Just got mine online.

Ooh I'm hoping they've got some in my local boots! Off into town this morning.

SOAP AND GLORY WARNING

Website says only available online

Not sure if it's true but if you really want one I'd get in fast and not risk it.

RJ- no idea how to link from my phone, but car phone warehouse have the Fitbit flex for 59.99 according to HDUK. Not sure if that is the one you were after.

Panic not! There are two versions of the soap and glory box (only the packaging is diff not content) they are DEFINITELT in store I unpacked enough of the fuckers yesterday

In store the box is pink, online its pink leopard print

It's the pinkness that puts me off.

Is it really good? Because it always looks cheap and nasty to me.

I am perfectly prepared to be persuaded to buy one though.

I got paid today

Hi all, Has anyone bought a reasonable quality selfie stick to take photos using your phone, preferably with an integrated shutter button? Some of the bits for holding the phones look a bit flimsy, to say the least. Or are they hopeless and I shouldn't bother? Thanks

Does anyone have an ELC code I could have please? :)

I'm here to share my disappointment with people who will care more than DH who just won't get it

My faux fur throw parcel arrived today, I'm thrilled as DD really wants a furry throw like the one on my bed which I won't give her, I open it up and inside is a fleece throw in the same colour.

It looks like a nice throw, but it's not furry

I have emailed the seller and will report back, has anyone else got theirs yet? I will be if everyone else gets fur!

The Book People have an extra 20% off all orders with code ELF20, ends midnight tonight.

15% off orders over £50 with code WPET15 at Waitrose Pet

argghh Elvish, I am waiting for my furry throw to arrive- better not be a fleece one

Oxfam currently have a half price sale on some of their 'unwrapped' charity gifts - e.g you can buy a chicken for a family for £5 instead of £10 but Oxfam will receive the full amount due to match-funding.

I have bought some as stocking fillers and teacher presents. According to Oxfam, they are not missing out by offering these items af half price.

From the website

'Is this going to mean Oxfam (and Oxfam's beneficiaries) get less money than if I paid full price?
Quite the opposite! Your money will help us meet our co-funding obligations, which will unlock the funding that other donors have promised!'

Half-price charity gifts

Yes Elvish mine came yesterday and it's lovely and soft but definitely doesn't look like the one in the picture

I saw absolutely tonnes of Soap and Glory sets being offloaded into our Boots the other day. They must be in store.

Bespoke offers have a "Buy a £10 Amazon voucher for £5" offer today.

I've just bought it and redeemed to my account so I can vouch for the fact it definitely works, however the payment page on Bespoke Offers was slow and threw me out a couple of times before it went through.
