Christmas bargain present ideas thread 2: the one with a baby chips?

[Reastie]

Hello all,

Hopefully the second message on the thread will contain a list of potentially useful links. I haven't checked through all of last years useful links so if I've missed any good ones please let me know and I'll amend.

I'll do my best to keep it updated with each new thread.

DD was watching some kind of Disney Christmas cartoon this morning so I'm feeling rather festive today :)

Is it just me but this thread isn't showing up in threads I'm on?

Just been on The Book People website, as always some great deals. Got 10 Fireman Sam, 10 Thomas Tank Engine, 10 Farmyard book collection (including three Julia Donaldson) for less than £15. SEPT10 gives an extra 10% off and delivery free over £25.

Just got a couple of the Wickford & Co candles they sell at Home Bargains, a red Apple & Cinnamon and a white Winter Vanilla, 79p each for a 3inch pillar. They will go in mason jars in my mantlepiece.
I really rate these candles, they smell divine and IMO are equal to Yankee Candles, which I also love.

Thanks Peppas, I have a book people catalogue in my hand as we speak and was just wondering if there were any codes

The rrp on that hulkbuster Lego is way inflated. It's £23.99 at Argos right now with an rrp of £29.99. Blooming amazon!

There's quite a few of those Mellissa and Doug sticker books going really cheap on Amazon, I stocked up in the morning as would be good for those last minute birthday invites etc.

Tesco have matched Amazon on the LEGO Frozen - Elsa??s Castle - so now there are 2 places where it's cheap :)
AND - with Tesco it's on the clubcard boost -so if you have enough clubcard points you only need to spend half too - makes this a mega cheap bargain.

Or if you prefer to order from Amazon - or if Tesco sell out, then it might be the cheapest place - LEGO Disney Princess Frozen Elsa??s Sparkling Castle

I'm not to buy any more stickers even as spare presents.

I bought this book a while ago for DS and he loves it, think it's a bargain at £3.59 (free postage with over £10 of books)

Usborne lift flap See Inside Your Body

I agree with Molten having bought that lift the flap "The Body" book a couple of years ago. Went down a treat in our household, especially the poo and wee pages! Its a great introduction to the Human Body.

Code FREEDELIVERY just used at the works. Got some good stocking fillers

2 for £15 on loads of toys at Smyths toyshop. Free click n' collect and shipping between £1.99 and £4.99 depending on spend amount.

In addition to the Body book the General Knowledge lift the flap book is £4.99, DS has the body book and the How Things Work one both brilliant.

dr270 thanks for the Melissa and Doug sticker book tip I've stocked up the pressie drawer with a few copies for the Reception parties onslaught!

Just settling in!!

For those who don't mind ordering from Aliexpress, I've seen lots of Lucky Boy soft toys look alikes (just search by that name). They retail at a ridicilous £80+ here and are selling for under £15 from China

It keeps happening to me too ballet girl.

Btw I think the smiths 25% off toys is due this weekend or next.

Just looking through the park promotions sale mentioned up thread by a poster and they have lots of scarves down to £1 or thereabouts from £10 and seeds down to 5p a pack! Delivery is £1.99.

Hello everyone, it's lovely to be here and share all these fab Christmas bargain tips. I'd like to add my tip (apologies if it's been mentioned previously) as I spotted Boots Natural Collection cosmetics at the weekend - all items are now priced at £1.99 which seems like a bargain and would be great for stocking fillers for teenage girls or really ladies of any age. I've tried the concealer and the mascara and they are both really good.

reastie Thanks for posting that! 3 scarves for £5 incl delivery!
