Thread 13: Will this be the thread I finish my Christmas shopping on....well, until I twitch

[Reastie]

See posts 2 and 3 for links and info

theimprobable what about a scramble bug? Similar to scuttle bug but four legs/wheels so a bit sturdier. DD got hers for her 1st birthday and still plays with it at 3. And it folds flatter for transport/storage

I need presents for an 11yr old boy, 11yr old girl and 9yo girl. Ideally less than £5 each. Books?

Still need to buy a Sofia the first dress but they've sold out of the one I want online, will have to brave an actual shop. Also need to order a Mini Micro scooter as I don't think there's any chance of getting any offers on one

The musical Christmas tree tins (and in fact I think all biscuits) are half price at M&S at the moment. I also twitched and bought choc sprouts for the kids stockings. I am now officially done!

My IKEA had SOLD OUT of gingerbread houses but had some very reasonably priced poinsettias (sp?)

A4B6 gives 25% off and free deliveries and returns at Boden.

Hi all, thanks for some excellent bargains! I was wondering if anyone can help with this...I need a roll of My Little Pony wrapping paper. It's proving impossible, so if anyone had seen any on their travels please let me know! Dd says that she thinks that Father Christmas will bring all the presents with Mlp paper so it would be great to actually do it.

Don't know it's already been mentioned but Primark have Pez sweet dispenser things for £1. They had mlp, star wars, avengers, cars etc. Not a bad little stocking filler.

mrs rudy how much mlp paper do u need? found 2 sheets and gift bag for £4.45 on amazon

2 sheets and gifts tags for £2.49 on rakuten

toys r us had some rolls of character paper instore but cant remember which ones they had.

or wrap one special gift in a mlp blanket/duvet set with ribbon and a bow?? then she can use it afterwards

Do Lindt ever do offers or codes anyone know?

Aww that's a lovely idea Nocuts, thanks! I have 6 ponies and 4 equestria girls to wrap so a roll would be best as a couple of sheets won't go far but if it comes to it I might have to. Will check toys r us

Fatima there's a new David walliams book out, a new Jacqueline Wilson and anew wimpy kid. That short sort all 3 and they should be £5 each in the supermarkets roughly

mrsrudycould you wrap in plain paper and use mlp ribbon?

Oh wow I never thought of that, thanks insan! It's perfect.

Kicking myself, have been waiting on delivery of one of the bargain Amazon Kindles from Black Friday and have now seen I never checked my basket out! Feeling such an idiot, are there any still around for £35? My googling is drawing a blank.

I need to buy a nice bottle of Vodka up to £25 or worth at least £25 if cheaper. I like the look of the crystal skull vodka but the cheapest I've seen it is £33. Anybody seen anything?

I've just received an email to say sainsburys finest hamper is reduced from £50 to £35

For beauty gifts Feelunique has up to 25% off and you can stack £10 off a £60 spend (some brand exclusions) with FEELJOY60. I've used them recently and they were v.quick to deliver.

Voldemort I've seen a few bottles on Amazon deals today

Did anyone buy a hover ball from Amazon at £2.95 and have the order cancelled today because of a "technical" error?

Boughttoomuch mines been despatched apparently....

If only I hadn't chosen no rush delivery! Have a feeling they didn't mean to reduce it to that low a price.

Thanks toblerone there's nothing at the moment but will keep an eye out.

boughttoomuch my hover balls still say preparing order. Hopefully it will slip through the net I've now decided I really need them.

Thanks for the heads up on the similar Mog at waterstones I think I'll get one from there any discount codes anyone? Xxx

shufflebum I think all the kindles have gone back up in price. You could try emailing Amazon and explaining what happened. You never know they may let you buy and refund the difference like they do when prices have dropped. Worth a try, fingers crossed for you xxx

Sylvannian shop has more special offers this weekend, best one of which appears to be the seaside restaurant for half price:

Shuffle bum, I got an email from Amazon trying to sell me a kindle fire fir £49.99 this morning (when it was previously £35).
