I got my Ali bargains Grin. Not all of them, some had sold out. I'd been getting the individual sellers vouchers as well, they vary, which knocked approx another 25% off my total. I got a few of these flying minions and this striking owl scarf with a voucher I paid £3.62.

How do you get the £10 off £99 voucher on Ali?

Silky2015 · 11/11/2015 12:06

Hi, does anyone know any good sylvanian families deals? Starting from scratch.

zipzap · 11/11/2015 12:11

Or seeing the price that the Kinder Maxi egg Toddler posted was going for, you could get a four pack of Christmas ones for £22, sell two for a tenner and have 2 for your ds for a couple of pounds or sell three and make a profit on the one you give to your ds! Grin

Anyone know any Peppa pig toy deals at the moment? Cheers

ToddlerTantrums · 11/11/2015 12:32

Oh I missed the 4 for £22 post Blush

itsonlysubterfuge · 11/11/2015 12:42

neddle It just deducts automatically if you add more than I think it's something like £99.68 to your basket.

BaBaBaBoomBoom · 11/11/2015 12:42

I'm looking for socks... With animal heads on..
These are ds' that we were given, and dd loves them! But have no idea even where to start with a Google :/

FernArable · 11/11/2015 12:48

Silky I got loads of Sylvanian Families last year in the Amzon black Friday deals if you can wait.

VinylScratch · 11/11/2015 12:48

Musical Christmas train set £5.60 at the works.

ToddlerTantrums · 11/11/2015 12:51

Baba I saw some in B&M yesterday but no clue how much they were sorry

CRtester · 11/11/2015 13:08

Toddler thanks v much for looking for me, but as zipzap says, think I'd be better buying the 4 pack and selling the ones I don't need! Which is actually not a bad idea - I can't believe people will pay such crazy prices.

Actually zipzap thanks v much for your soft toy idea. My DS would love that. For some reason he always wants a soft toy, even though we're already drowning in them. That way it would cross the chocolate and soft toy off the list for the stocking in one go. Smile

Think I'll wait til Easter for the big ones, and hope the supermarkets stock them then.

I might pop to whsmiths later in the week - I'll let you know if I see them at a better price than the £6 in tesco.
Thanks for your help Flowers

teabird toysrus have a Peppa deal at the moment. If you spend £50 you get a free Peppa toy - the house I think, worth about £25. Depends how much you were planning to spend obviously. £50 on Peppa stuff is quite a lot!

margaritasbythesea · 11/11/2015 13:18

The 20%off at the works code that comes with Vinylscratch's link works on all items not just the train. Including these magic Christmas trees.

ilovetosleep · 11/11/2015 13:20

Thank you so much for this thread, I have done most of my shopping in a matter of days! I am really tempted by AliExpress for the paw patrol toys, but we have some already and I think DS will notice a difference if they are obviously different/fake. Has anyone received their paw patrol toys and what are they like? I'm looking mainly at the little figure that you press the tag and something pops up. Thanks!

Reastie · 11/11/2015 13:25

I wonder what the huge kinder eggs have inside them Hmm and why do I want one so badly?!

Don't forget 18% cashback at the Works for the next 4 days too.

Ekorre · 11/11/2015 13:30

Reastie, if the easter ones are anything to go by a toy that is not worth the amount of money you paid for it.

Reastie · 11/11/2015 13:33

How disappointing ekorre just like the normal kinder eggs then

Thank you to whoever posted about the Natural History Musuem! I got a nice few bits, ordered today and already had notification that they will be delivered tomorrow. Not bad for free delivery! Flowers

My offering...it's not a reduction as such but I think they are really good value...personalised Match Attax cards. I ordered what I thought was one card for DS last year but you actually get 5 cards, one of which is a sparkly Grin. You upload a photo, can change the stats and they come out really well. They're £3.99 with £1 p&p. Nice stocking filler for a football-mad person.

Silky2015 · 11/11/2015 13:45

Fernarable thanks for that. How does Black Friday work. Having attempted complete failure on the Argos 3 for two with site crashing. Will Amazon be the same do you think? Is there much discount... Any tips welcome Smile

Scaredycat3000 · 11/11/2015 13:46

I refuse to buy Kinder eggs anymore. After buying a 3 pack of their heavily gendered eggs only to find one contained the wrong gender they can fuck off. My eldest DS doesn't really like chocolate as well. I'd rather take them to the £1 shop.

shash1982 · 11/11/2015 13:56

silky argos had the sylvanian family beechwood hall starter set (huge house with electronic lights, furniture & figures) reduced from £100 to £60.

zipzap · 11/11/2015 13:59

oooh Borntofolk where do you get the personalised match attax cards from please? I've got 1 MA obsessed ds - and a little brother that is being conditioned by his big bro to think that they are the best thing ever even though he hates anything to do with football

WoahBodyforrrrm · 11/11/2015 14:05

You know it's coming up to Christmas when you spend £47 online at the poundshop Xmas Blush solely on chocolate

Also I went into the Lego store today and picked up a few bits and some gift cards, coming to just over £50. I was given a free festive train for spending over £50 which I was surprised by as I thought I wouldn't qualify for it as I was buying gift cards. It's bigger then I had expected from the advertisement in the window, so perfect for a gift or extra stocking filler or to save as a collectable
