Thread 8: just pooped on to say the one where we're all Scottish

[Reastie]

Look to next two posts for links

Also whoever was asking about the willow tree ornaments, there are some nice & reasonable ones at the Brilliant Gift Shop

so glad I'm not the only one who wanted a bath foam cone maker

you can double up Tesco clubcard vouchers on books if that is any help?

thunderbird will have a look how much I have in vouchers, hadn't thought of that, thanks

Still welcome any other reductions but that's one idea already!

GardenWorm I did two separate Gotrovo orders, one straight after the other, paid both through PayPal, had confirmation emails so hopefully it'll work that way for you?

Does anyone have an Apple Watch? Does it do it all the fitness stuff that a Fitbit would do?

Has anyone seen any Matalan codes floating around please?I know there were some a while back but I can't find any recent ones.

L'Occitane code I won't use if anyone wants it -

PS10 off when you spend PS35 valid 04/11 to 06-11 - 10VI

Free gift when you spend PS25 (hand creams x3) valid 07/11 to 09/12 - PETIT15

Thanks wild

gardenworm it seems to work fine to the same address if you go back in and do a separate order.. I now seem to be the proud owner of 2 gotrovos it's looks like an ace game though, thanks cookiefiend!

I'll reserve judgement on the Gotrovo thing until I've spent 20mins setting it up, and the kids finish it in 1 minute and then want to do it again!

Another thank you for the Gotrovo suggestion, my DS will love it.

coolpattern I don't know what the Fitbit does, but apple watch has various movement tracking features, including movement reminders and workout tracking. I love mine!

Minions air blast rocket only PS5

5pounds (the ps instead of pound sign is annoying!)

Ok weird question but instead of a pound sign is anyone else seeing ps before the numbers??

Cross posted with smurfy guess that's a yes!!!

It's annoying isn't it, especially in here where I keep thinking its a code to use on website they are talking about!

I am too

FeelingSmurphy - I got ripleys for 6.80 using codes at the book people, with a combination of codes and offers (spent 34, used a 5 off code plus a 10% off code, all from HUKD) with a few other books and it came down to 26.

My Ali Express cheapo superhero figures arrived today and they are actually really good quality. I paid £3.15 for a set of 8, they arrived in just over a week and are perfect stocking fillers.

love the air blast rocket, can't seem to pin down any post charges?

Free delivery when you spend over 15 pounds at the Book People with AFVBOX15 (valid until 6th November). It stacks with XMAS20 for 20% off hand-picked favourites (valid until midnight).

I've just been to asda and hit lucky with the Halloween reductions, the woman pricing them said she was sick of the sight of them and to get what I want and she'd stick 10p stickers on them..... So I've got a bag full .

Wrt the Argos pricing, I've been in to pick up a reservation and both items have gone up in price. All I had to do was show the price on my email reservation and it was honoured.

The woman said that the prices change on a Wednesday morning. And as long as you have the email they will honour whatever is cheapest. So if you want to buy anything from Argos, reserve it on a Tuesday and collect on a Wednesday.

I don't know how that works with the 3 for 2, but from what she said, I presume they will honour the cheapest way e.g pay the reserved price for 3 items or pay the new price for 2 of the 3. IYSWIM.... That's just an educated guess mind.... We shall see!

Some Aliexpress feedback from items I ordered on 22 October and which came today:
Frozen necklace I ordered Olaf and he looks lovely for £1.30. The sharpie pen in picture is for scale.

3D butterflies wall stickers for .50 a packet. Some are nicer for older kids, I think the plain colours are better for younger ones. Great for stocking stuffer or advent calendar in a single pack but to decorate the wall like seller has pictured, you'll need a bunch of packs.

I ordered an adult tiara to go with a frozen dress, so will report if that works on a child's head with a bit of ribbon or elastic when I receive it.
