I'd wait until Black Friday for any kind of electronics like games consoles and iPads.

Someone has posted on HUKD that the Santa biscuit tin in M&S is half price at £5.

Amazon has dropped the price of the Playmobil hotel to £75, I have been waiting for it to drop for ages..
And they have a Playmobil children's train from 25 for £7.50!

I had an email from the chalk pen guy to say tomorrow I will get a voucher code for a pack of 3 white chalk pens for £1 and only 50 are available. I won't need it so if anyone particularly wants them give me a shout and if it arrives I'll send it over

Mama1980 · 03/11/2015 08:35

Sorry if it's been mentioned but there's a cardboard Christmas cottage, £10 in Matalan. My children love these.

Chalk pens are back!

Search for chalk pens on Amazon, find the pack of white Chalkola Chalk pens and add to your basket.

Get your coupon here.

Result: pack of 5 white chalk pens for £1 - just leave a review on Amazon when you've got them.

Thanks for all the bargains. I also am still chuckling about all being Scottish... For what it is worth, I am not, but do live near a wide range of shops, new and otherwise.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a real tool kit for my 5 (nearly 6) year old DD? I would like something she can really use.

Got some cute stocking fillers in Tiger yesterday - always good value there. Cute notebooks with an elf on for £1. Our elf on the shelf may bring those! Little snow globe for £1, 2 little yarn elf tree decs for £1 too. Yes, we are elf obsessed here! Am looking for elf pjs too, if anyone has seen any, please?

Thank you.

Mama1980 · 03/11/2015 10:14

Ratbagcatbag (hope I've got your username right!) yes you will remember me from that antenatal thread :) I will pm you later, if I can figure out how i'll send you a pic of Alex he's a walking talking ball of utter chaos now Grin

Sorry for chatting on thread BlushWink

Petal7 · 03/11/2015 10:14

And I got an 8pack Kellogg's variety cereal pack, 4 Frozen design, 4 Star Wars for 75p in my local Co op. Thought they would be fun for December.

Letustryagain · 03/11/2015 10:45

I've just had an email from 'Feelunique', £10 off a £60 spend with the code FEELJOY10.

Also, keep an eye on your postboxes, I've had a Thorntons Christmas Gift Guide through with coupons on the back for £5 off a £30 spend and £15 off a £50 spend. They also have online codes on. Great for using on those half price hampers (I've just checked and it does work...).

LittleMissGreen · 03/11/2015 10:47

DeathStar I know I got a KindleFire very cheap in the last Amazon black Friday, not sure about 'normal' kindles though.

fairyjasmine · 03/11/2015 10:52

New Disney Store stuff online today... it looks like they've restocked the Tsum Tsum range and added a few new ornaments etc. Holding out for a decent code now!
I've been waiting for the Christmas Chip & Dale Tsum Tsums (DD apparently needs them) but it looks like you can only get them as part of an 8-pack for £24.99. Thanks for reminding me of Aliexpress itsonlysubterfuge - the trouble is, I must have mentioned these before because DD keeps banging on about how terrible fakes are! Can anyone that's received some Aliexpress Tsum Tsums tell me what they're like? Do they have tags on and look pretty convincing?

Matilda2013 · 03/11/2015 10:54

Does anyone know exactly when Argos 3 for 2 starts (and if you can do it from midnight) and if your basket will empty beforehand?

ItalianWiking84 · 03/11/2015 10:58

Scandi: thanks Flowers
Hope my dd will love toot toot even though she's a girl Smile

2anddone · 03/11/2015 10:59

Fairyjasmine I have the inside out tsum tsums on the way via aliexpress so will let you know what they are like when they arrive! They had labels on in the picture so keeping fingers crossed!

2anddone · 03/11/2015 11:02

Matilda last year I had everything I wanted reserved well before the day it came on and kept renewing the reservation when it ran out. This ensured that the items I wanted were in stock so if you reserve yours now it will be reserved ready for tomorrow [santa]

Letustryagain · 03/11/2015 11:19

Can I ask a quick question about ordering more than one box of chocs from Hotel Chocolat under the Tasting Club?

I ordered one last week but haven't yet received it and they haven't taken the money so I went online to check the status, it says it's estimated delivery is 6th November.

When I went on it said that I can order another box at the same price, offer finishing today. BUT I also know that you have to cancel the boxes within 10 days of receipt. My query is, do you have to cancel each selection or will they take the 10 days from when I get my FIRST box? If I order today the second box won't arrive until maybe 10 days after the first box and I don't want to get charged the £22 monthly fee if I don't cancel the second one within that month. Does that make sense?

So if I cancel the first selection after I get the first box (straight away) and the second selection after I receive that one, will I be Ok?

That's probably clear as mud... sorry... Confused

ihatethecold · 03/11/2015 11:22

I've just ordered 5 OPI nail varnishes for £9.99 from an email I got this morning
