Thread 7: stocking fillets and mince pies

[Reastie]

As ever links etc on post two

My boys are forever losing their Nerf bullets and I just across these on Ali Express. Looks like a bargain at £2.54 for 100 bullets.

I'll second strawberrypenguins comment re character.com pj's
The sizing is pretty accurate, and they are decent quality - enough so that I can pass them down to DS2 and they're still in decent nick.

With the character pjs I find the ones with a full body print wash better than the ones with a shiny printed logo. The shony ones tend to be cheaper too though. (if that makes any sense at all) sizing pretty accurate.

Free Delivery today and tomorrow at Mulberry Bush with code FROG

I bought stuff from Vertbaudet recently, kept one top and sent the others back. Also got a free gift, but they sent the wrong size Anyway, despite buying with a card, not on credit, their refund to me is in the form of a credit - so I need to buy more crap stuff from them. Not happy at all!

Rainbow dash play doh set is £6.49 on Amazon here best ever price according to ccc

Thanks!

Gumigem 10% off works on sale stuff ILIKEDU (thanks to whoever posted about the sale!)

Ooh I missed the character.com post, are they just bargainous or is there a code I can use too? Seen some lovely pjs for Christmas Eve

Iggi this is from their t&cs
'Once we receive items, we refund the cost of those items using the method you used to pay.'
So give them a ring and get them to sort it.

Probably mentioned but

M&S have 50% off some of their yummy chocolate biscuit boxes in store at the moment - saw them today. Down from £6 to £3

Did you all know if you keep the tasting club you get 5% off all hotel chocolat purchases? Online and in store?

At £22,95 you'd only need to spend erm £459 a month on chocolate to break even?

Are M&S doing any musical biscuit tins this year? I'm kind of concerned by their absence. They've become a bit of a Xmas tradition in this house.

Thanks bumpkitty

Ds is always playing on my iPhone - CBeebies app mostly and some cartoons on Netflix. Does anyone know is there a cheap smartphone I could get him, to use on wifi only without making any calls - do I still need a contact to do that? I am tired of being worried about him smashing my phone (and stopping me mumsnetting!)

Just saw your message, whatsonyourplate, thank you

Thank you for this thread

Ja9R - re M&S - register for a Sparks card and you will likely get a personalised 20% off code (with a time limit so do it when you are ready to spend)

Thanks for the 15% of Bijouled Betty - just trying to decide if I need a trip to Harrogate to "save" £3.50 or will they mind holding things until early December when I'm coming down for the Country Living fair....

(Another North Yorkshire girl here)

A further 20% off everything at Mountain wWarehouse this weekend with the code TREAT20.

Iggi, it might be cheaper to get one of the tablets mentioned below than a phone?

I have no clue about MLP but saw these MLP night lights on bargain buys for busy mums

Sorry, they are 1.75 +99p delivery

iggi99 how old is your DS? I've just ordered the Kindle Fire Kids for DD. It's £79.99 and comes with a two year no quibble guarantee and a year's free subscription to Amazon Kids Unlimited.

Obviously if he's a bit older and you want him to have the functionality to makes calls it's no good.
