juliep those necklaces on eBay look exactly the same as the ones you get on aliexpress and Amazon for less than £2-£3 including delivery. It does take a week or two to arrive though

RedToothBrush · 30/09/2015 13:13

WELLEAVES code (free delivery over £10) with The Book People is good until midnight, and works with the flash sale items.

Well call me a slattern but I am doing a Boots Christmas this year.

Just bought the Boots star gift for DNeice, and then saw the 3 for 2 stuff, found a few things that worked well for DNep, then DSis' partner, and by that point thought, what the hell let's get up to £80, get 10% off and free delivery and sort out a couple more people. Not beautiful bijoux unique presents, but presents all the same and given that I'm 6 months pregnant, have a week in England to get everything bought and wrapped in October and can't even be there with them at Christmas, it will just have to do!

Will buy my lovely DM and DS something thoughtful because they are the only two that appreciate it and reciprocate anyway ;-) Lessons learnt from previous years! So if anyone has suggestions for a woman in her 20s and one in her 60s that you have fancied for yourselves let me know!

Thanks for the book people delivery code Grin

spub · 30/09/2015 13:22

Lego starwars advent calendar just dropped to £24 on Amazon (has been above RRP at £29)

LittleMissGreen · 30/09/2015 15:35

d270r0 thanks for the stuffed pony/unicorn idea. Not seen them before but DS3 will love them.

Next week it's October, so it's practically Christmas really. Just saying. Wink

My boots app is saying there is £10 of points automatically added for every £60 spent between now and 1st Oct. 3 for 2 should qualify

Roaring, personally, I wouldn't recommend the 5c. I had four!! in the space of a tear, three I had to take back due to hardware problems. To be fair, Apple were excellent at replacing them, as the phone was under warrantee. I've had friends who have had them without issues, but...4!!

PandasRock · 30/09/2015 16:57

Flowers for the wuggle pets link. They look interesting. Have bought some and will investigate upon arrival - they can either go straight in the draft cupboard if cheap looking (my 3 are forever doing various cut/stick/sew crafts) or if decent will hang onto for presents.

You all probably got the same email but the chalk pen guy has asked me if any of my friends want to join his free Amazon review club, apparently you can order stuff for free if you leave a nice review (like the chalk pens) Smile.

RoaringForties · 30/09/2015 17:21

Thanks for that millie yes I was going to steer clear of the 5c for exactly those reasons. I was thinking the 5s in the hope that it's sturdy, stares hard at DS.
balletgirl yep my feelings to I might wait awhile and see how the new model affects the prices. Quidco looks like it's stopped cash back with Apple sadly.

My Boots vouchers came today, keep an eye out, £6 points when spending £40 in store and £60 online.

MaryJPoppins · 30/09/2015 17:30

Thank you Mipe I have signed up. (Slightly worried about all of the junk mail I may get) I have finally caught up with the thread. Got lots of body shop goodies and took full advantage of the 3-4-2 offer. Grin

RedToothBrush · 30/09/2015 18:03

Just mentioned these Asda Photo Coasters on another thread. They are £5 for 4. Surprisingly good quality. Stick in a photo and they look like you have spent more than they coast. Much nicer looking than printed one imo.

woodwaj · 30/09/2015 18:23

I got the email too mine but I don't intend to keep my Amazon prime trial. I've signed up and I'll see what happens!

brightandshiney · 30/09/2015 18:46

My thoughts exactly Reastie! Smile.

Millie2013 · 30/09/2015 19:31

Duh. Sorry, Roaring, I read your post wrong, the 5S is fab, OH had one :)

MooseyMoo · 30/09/2015 19:55

The Entertainer has Christmas Countdown deals which starts tomorrow. I think tomorrow's deal might be an Elsa Styling head

kavv0809 · 30/09/2015 20:31

There are a couple of Shopkins sets in the Argos 3 for 2 if that helps.

MaryJPoppins · 30/09/2015 20:39

Crew clothing 20% off untill Sunday. Lovely stuff.

TimonAndPumbaa · 30/09/2015 20:41

I think the argos 3 for 2 has finished kav.
