Thread 7: stocking fillets and mince pies

[Reastie]

As ever links etc on post two

I'm not far from Edinburgh either.

Am jealous of people who have The Range though - I have never even seen one.

Edinburgh has The Range now! Where Big W was.

Smurfy - I saw that Minnie Mouse toy in B&M today in the Basingstoke branch they had lots in stock.

Spotty (was it you who wanted something for teachers?), I'm a teacher and I like these m&s initial candles They're in the 3for2 so if you're buying anyway you could poss even get it for free. And there's that 20% off code too: OCT15SM.

I'm From Scotland to and very proud! We have no new shops opening near us. The only shop we have is a Coop. Not many Christmas bargains there!

Someone was asking after feelunique codes, just seen this on hukd:
feelunique

Anyone noticed emails from The Hut and Look Fantastic that have codes in, say click on the shop now button below? Wonder if they are trying to stop us sharing codes.
Anyway back045 might give you 15% off The Hut and 5hair25 might give you £5 off £25 spend at Look Fantastic on selected hair care.

Asda have MLP dressing gowns

Edinburgh has the range????! Next to asda???

BeaBoo I can recommend the Mister Maker craft box sold at ELC nearly always in the sale for £10 it's been a big hit with my 2 year old (although she needs help with cutting / sticking)

Beaboo I bought a paint your own Santa kit from Matalan the other day. Think it was £3. I'm sure she could make an interesting job of it.

Not particularly Christmassy but both my DDs enjoyed the Paint A Teaset by Galt. They often stock them in supermarkets and Amazon has it for £7.94.

Thanks all

Well, I was going to place an order for the Avengers Age of Ultron DVD along with a pre-order for Fantastic Four for DD1. Until I found that you can only buy the Avengers for £10 if you are a prime member. It's £15 for all the plebs who aren't members. I dislike that pricing policy, so will be on the look out for the 2 dvds elsewhere - probably one of the supermarkets will have a decent price on them.

Just wondering if anyone else received a £10 Boden voucher in the mail today? It's my third in the past month. I'm not really complaining, but it just seems a little strange. Today's is to entice me back to Boden. But I bought some tights for dd with the first voucher, and the second I haven't spend yet. I have 4 Dds, so I guess it will never go to waste. Just wondering if they can log how often I actually visit their site and how low that transition to actually purchasing is .

Thanks Carrie & neeko. I'm not looking for particularly Christmassy crafts, just crafts in general. Will look up your suggestions

Yup, it's been there a while now!

Sideorder thanks for the MLP hoodie link. What's the sizing like please? Debating whether to go one or 2 sizes up. Congrats on your DS1

Wow, 3 Boden vouchers. I've never received one. I don't buy much and never full price which might explain it!

I NEVER get Boden vouchers. My mum does. I have a conspiracy theory about it - she lives in a much posher town than me so I think that's why she gets vouchers and I don't.

Johnny can stick his vouchers up his bum!

20% off WYS £20 on No.7 at boots (online) but also works on 3 for 2. So buy 3 things, pay for 2 but then get 20% off. Might be good for stocking fillers.

I feel left out that I'm not Scottish nor do I have anything new opening, oh tell a lie I think there is a range coming soon. I do however have an abundance of home and bargains and b&m's near and near enough every supermarket brand I can think of so I can't complain too much.

Charley if I am right Ant man is out next month so naturally I'd expect Age of Ultron to come down in price around then so may be worth waiting? Totally made up this theory though!

Desperately trying to catch up the last few days especially since I've missed some hoo-ha!! Are there Argos money off vouchers just now?

And speaking of christmas scarves, there are loads of different ones once you start looking.

I like the look of the polar bear one for me - splashing out at about £3.50
Was a toss up with the Santa scarf but at over a fiver that starts to feel like real money rather than a bargain - plus the polar bear one I can wear after christmas too, at least while it's cold!

And I'm getting one of these fleecy santa ones for ds2 as he adores santa - but there are also snowmen and a reindeer - for less than £2

But there's loads - search on whatever festive/wintery thing takes your fancy - penguins, foxes, deer, stags, reindeer, snowflakes, snowmen etc

Seriously tempted by the MLP hoodies (not that they girls need them! )

side How was the sizing? Big? small?

Feeling distinctly unfestive today despite a stroll round all the decorations at the garden centre :( The puppy is destroying eveything in sight and im beginning to dread putting the tree up this year which is normally something I love.

Any Kent bargain hunters??

Thanks, wood. In the absence of a better price, I'm happy to wait and see what happens to the price.

I've noticed that DVDs are quite low on release, then go up before they come down again.

I'm almost as far as you can get from Scotland on the Dorset coast .

Also, I was in a Disney Store today - the medium Olaf is reduced to £8-99 in there as well as the 'buy a second for £1' deal.
