Christmas bargain thread 21 <passes around some Lindt chocs>

[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.

Knowledgeable types: Does anyone know whether GLTC do a good post-Xmas sale? Wanted to get something for my niece for her early Jan birthday but it's quite pricey. They are doing 20% off pre-Xmas but it's the last day today. Do you think it's worth waiting?

Sorry if this question is cheating slightly as not quite Christmas-based but hoping someone might know!

My rabbit hasn't arrived yet, neither have the finger puppets I ordered.
Things have taken a good while before, but never have I had cause to chase things up.

They have very similar rabbits in home bargains for (I think) £2. Got a couple last year and they're ace.

Hi
Just a word of warning -my debit card has been cloned. Bank couldn't pinpoint exactly what happened, but said it happens a lot this time of year! Apparently I have been to New York and Indonesia

Oh no janx how rubbish. Did they pick it up first or did you notice it? Hope you get all the money back without stress. I worry about that sort of thing happening.

No rabbits here yet :(

massive smartphone virus has knocked me off course tonight as had to restore my phone back to factory settings. was a horrible message saying i had been found guilty of crimes and had to pay x amount immediately. please keep your eye out and dont fall for it!

They also have rabbit lights in primark.

I ordered my rabbits in August and got a refund in October!

Dh lost his glove, good excuse to get his smart phone gloves, but there do I get them in store please? Was it Lidl?

Tits - we are looking for a wiiU too.

Smyths have the 8gb white one for £169 with Mario and luigi game I think.

The 32gb ones are around &250, come with Mario kart 8 or Mario game and other accessories. We are thinking will get this from isme with the pay over 3 months plan. Thru also offer 2years guarantee, compared to the one year argos offer.

Voted

Voted too [gsmile]!

Has anyone seen any bargainous magic growing snowmen/trees (you know the crystally things)?

gsmile?

of course!

I had a refund on the rabbits yonks ago as well.

Was disappointed

I've voted- think this link should take you to the poll rather than the results.

VOTE REASTIE

Hope you win- you have spread so much good cheer round here.

Grr no that link didn't work either. Oh well- hopefully you all find it and vote.

temporaryusername they have the crystally light up snowmen in tesco - at the entrance with all the minature christmas trees and the flowers. didnt see many but did have a second glance at them.. hands firmly stuck in buttoned up pockets i know they always do a few types at our local 'van hages' garden centre too - christmassy hello kitty's, snowmen and polar bears last year.

ignore last message! read your post too quickly in a rush that i could post something helpful after all helpful tips ive had . cant delete my unhelpful tip... lol sorry!

temporary- Home Bargains and poundland last year had them.

Reastie- have voted! I don't know what I'd do without these fab threads every year! (You also have excellent namechange taste, the only time I ever did the Christmas name change, under my old NN I was BuchaRestYeMerryGentlemen or something )

You are leading by a shopping aisle Reastie. Get your votes in folks.

Ps. This has to be the longest we have got out of a thread all year .

Voted think you are going to win Reastie.

Voted earlier

Voted, reastie has it in the bag and rightly so. She is the queen of Christmas x

Hi Peeps,

HELP! I have bought a few of those personalised lego mini figures (thank you so so much to the poster who recommended them) but I don't have any gift boxes to put them in.

Does anyone know of anywhere on the high street that will do cheap gift boxes small enough for a little lego man?

PS - My Dad would like a bottle of port - I don't think the stuff so no idea what is a good bottle, any recommendations?

Thanks so much
TOOIK
