Thread 5: don't forget your Christmas goat

[Reastie]

As usual, info on the next post. Apologies for anything I didn't pick up on, please do let me know and I'll add it for next time.

Festive sprinkles for everyone

Hello lurked on thread 4, loving the bargains. Haven't read this thread yet - 7 pages already!

In Tesco today they had some Lindt Advent Calendars for £2.50. I had a look online and they are £5-6 elsewhere. Not on the website so maybe only in store?

I love this thread
Got cycle mad partner a 'Loopie' with £15 off
Brilliant - am so excited

Coleslaw-do you use one click? If not, it should show when you checkout & select delivery options-there should be a 'free next day...' Then 'free no rush.....' However, it will only be for prime eligible things. There are some items from other sellers that are fulfilled by Amazon, (I don't quite get all that tbh)

Good luck next time - I'll take a screen print next time if I remember.

Did anyone order the sham balls jewellery? Bit concerned as its so cheap!

Oops sorry damn autocorrect should be shamballa*

joycey what's a loopie? (shamelessly nicking ideas for DH)

Thanks evelyn I don't use one click but might change that.

I ordered a fair bit. Had a dispatch email from them today, so just waiting to see. Does say it can take up to a week though...

It's a graphic of a bike ride they've done using a ribbony thing to show their speed etc
I put Loopie into not on the high street and it came up £100 normally but with code £85
Arty and sporty so I hope he ll like

To the previous poster about the matalan card. You get a £10 off £25 online spend along with a 20% off card to use in store

Thanks Bluesky, I've just ordered one of the Matalan £1.50 initial t-shirts for my daughter. Bargain!

Thanks for the TK Maxx free delivery code. Some good Dickie Toys on there for boys!

Thank you for the new thread reastie! I'm cross with myself for not buying boden lounge wear for the tricky blokes last night... And now they've gone back up to full price. Do you think they will go down in price again anytime soon?

Oh and what's this about Cath kidston goodies on aliexpress?? Anyone got any links? Tia

Please can someone tell me what on earth a wiggle scooter is and what it does?! DD has a perfectly good scooter but has just requested a wiggly one for Christmas and I'm clueless

I think a wiggle scooter (no relation ) is like a generic kind of Fliker scooter. You know the taller scooter with the two pads that you stand on not the board.

Tesco have a half price toy sale too
This is a really good one: Half price? large Lego duplo set - Now £12.50

There's also up to half price on some toys at Argos

Animal Wall Stickers
92% off
Now £1.98 & free delivery from Amazon
I'm not sure I completely agree with the RRP on there- but the price is stilll great :)

There's now a UK seller of the great Womdee scarves on Amazon too- lots of colours & styles and just a couple of quid delivered

I can't remember who it was on the last thread that wanted underwater / ocean ideas but I've just spotted this fish costume at TKMaxx for £13 - step into it and wear it on your shoulders around your waist and it's like you're a fish...

Also - have you looked at all the under the sea wall stickers on ebay - there are loads at all different price ranges from a couple of pounds to hundreds! Depends on what you want - from individual cartoony fish to portholes/broken walls which look like you are looking directly out into the depths of the ocean to realistic fish to create your own underwater scene and so many more. And depending on what particular aspects your dd wants you could refine the search to search on things that she would really love (say she particularly like dolphins or Nemo or shipwrecks or whatever!)

WoahBody Can I ask how much the photo blankets were? Keeping an eye on Living Social for the offer to come back.

I'm on a roll now, I can't seem to stop! Finally caught up with the thread.

Joycey29 That Loopie is amazing! I think I might have to pinch the idea. Stupid question though, how the hell do you get the GPS data to them? No way I'll get it sorted by 10am tomorrow so looks like I'll be paying full price, grrr.

I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned, but The Works have 10 kids books for £10 at the moment. There's some really lovely books in the selection . I recognize a lot of them as ones we've read or bought - and I'd say they're worth the £4-5 price tag so to get 10 for a pound each is a bargain.

Anyone know the cheapest place to buy the new David Walliams book?
Grandpa's great escape.
It was a fiver on Amazon but the p + p made it not worth getting.

No don't use one click-it's awful, I've accidentally bought a few things (when drunk) & too much of a pain to return! Normal checkout is best :)

I hate its £6.20 at the book depository with free delivery.

ihate I saw it in Sainsbury's for a fiver yesterday

fullofrage I think someone right at the end of the last thread was really pleased with her Shamballa stuff?

valium Tell me more about the Cath Kidston stuff on Aliexpress

molton and woah thanks for the TK Maxx code, I bought the Ciate dolls house and beach house varnish sets on there a while back and when they arrived I wished I had bought more they are so pretty.

comfort I'm going to dig out my passport and travel (all of 45mins) to the Big Town for Dunelm then!
