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

[Reastie]

Look to next two posts for links

Another thank you to Birding - have just spent £30 on Melissa and Doug bits and bobs with free delivery - equivalent would have cost £57 on Amazon - an absolute steal

Thanks for the info on the Playmobil advent calendar Moosey, I missed it last time.

Can't believe another thread has passed!

Just for the record I am 100% English, but pretty much as North in Scotland as you can get. So I'm happy either way...no bloody shops here though

My LaRedoute order arrived and I am living in my cardi, the children's stuff is for gifts so I bloody hope it all fits.

I've ordered 3 gum ball machines from BHS.

I need to be added to the Paw Patrol gang and all things Bing, and a ride on tractor or car/truck of some sort.

I bought the Boots star gift this week and it is great, I was very tempted to buy 2 but resisted

Thanks for the thread Reastie

Denby have a big sale on, with free delivery on £20 spend. Also, you can double up Clubcard vouchers to spend online with Denby, effectively halving the price again. They have Xmas Cookie Cutters (2 in pack) 90p and Xmas design Baking trays etc around £3 each as well as half price cutlery sets etc.
cookie cutters

Cant remember who was asking for unicorn things, but Primark has some seriously cute unicorn nail stickers for £1.

Not sure if already mentioned but some freebies with a £50/£60 spend at the Lego store. Free Gingerbread cottage with a £60 spend from 27th November, free Santa train currently available if you spend £50. Automatically added to basket.

4 for the price of 3 on Amazon groceries. A LOT of stuff can be used as/in Christmas presents (or not!)

I'm looking for a plain white fine bone china mug. Can anyone recommend when to buy from please?

Unicorn moneybox seen in Matalan for those unicorn fans:)

Also saw lego advent calendar in sainsburys this afternoon, didn't see the price though

Qwerty that house is adorable! DD would love it - it's just a shame that the Lego shop is a bit pricier than Amazon etc (although the VIP points and Quidco cashback do soften the blow slightly!)

Morrisons had Elsa/Anna dolls (Barbie style) for £4.50 today.

That website is amazing. A bit annoyed that if already bought a melissa and Doug pizza and magnetic puzzle. Feeling very annoyed with Amazon and wondering if I can justify buying presents for parties that aren't at all on the horizon?!

Thank you to everyone for all the great tips and vouchers.

If you order from LEGO now (rather than waiting until November for the Gingerbread House), all orders over £50 receive free delivery and an exclusive free Christmas train: LEGO train.

Some things are more expensive than Amazon but equally they have some lovely pieces for less, such as this pen pot LEGO pen pot.

I also made good use of the special offers on Melissa and Doug toys on TQ Toys, so thank you for the heads up.

I have no time right now sorry, but whoever wanted a nutribullet it is £75 at very and if you add a £19 accessory pack to your basket it is free. There are usually £30 off your first £60 spend codes floating around I just don't have time to search for one just now.

nutribullet

Hope that helps whoever was looking.

Thanks reastie! Really want to twitch with the playmobil playground at track

*at Tesco!

I love that lego pen pot!!

My local Sainsbury has Star Wars storm trooper figures for just under £13 (big about a foot high). I am in Bracknell so hope I can join in!

has anyone had issues with the white company? i ordered a winter candle from them, and they have sent me a bottle of aftershave instead. bit baffled.

Yes, repeatedly. We call them the shite company now.

Not sure if this will be of use in the UK but Argos.ie had the Dream Town Rose Petal cottage on sale for 25% off but when people (including me) went to buy it it was 50% off the original price. Approx equiv to 53 pounds.

Meant to say might be worth popping into an Argos UK to check

Flash Sale on toys at Tesco. Looks like there are some good things eg like this toy cooker. Only until tomorrow.

So pleased people like tqtoys and have found what they wanted. I hadn't been on the website for aaaages because I bought so much last year that I haven't dared look again but got the email about the 25% off and picked up a few new craft bits. DS has a fine stack of puzzles already thanks to that site!

I have got a lot from these threads (not just bargains but great ideas for presents!) so I'm glad to have something useful to contribute.

Moosey thanks for that, have updated the Black Friday.

Trying not to twitch now as I'm pretty much done bar a few cracker gifts (we do homemade crackers).
