Thread 14 - I don't think a parachute is something you want to scrimp on

[RoastieToastieReastie]

That quote tickled me after a poster asked for a bargainous parachute

Look at posts 2 and 3 for links and quotes

Bosch Tassimo T1252GB down to £33, lowest ever according to CCC

Thank you very much for all the cellophane bag suggestions. I have ordered some from the eBay seller suggested by ohtheholodays

Glad it helped Dogmatix.

Please let 'cheapest onions from China' be the next thread title. That made me chuckle!

I just got £30 off a Very order and am an existing customer!

If you ever had a Very account (mine hadn't been used since 2010 and tbh, I'd forgotten all about it) check the mails they send to your inbox. I got a code for £30 off £60 (the usual ones they offer only to new customers)

Got dp his Ray Bans which were already down to £80 something for £50 something.

(was a bit bemused actually as assumed it would go all "oh no you don't, this is only for new customers [santa])

Well I've no idea if you can get onions from China or whether they are indeed cheaper but

Starspotter thank you. You are right. I have just fallen out of love with Playmobil a bit as, until now, everything we have had has been battery & noise free.

Where us my Boden voucher?! Do you think this is punishment for not having used the one they previously sent me?

Twitched on the Tassimo for DH. Hiding it in the boot of the car at the moment!

If you need cellophane bags from a real shop (as opposed to online and not knowing if/when they'll turn up) Wilkinsons has them - clear with white snowflake design and a silver tie - 5 for £1

Wall-e Lego £32 at John Lewis (39.99 elsewhere). Bought for the higher price but they refunded me the difference!

Disney sparkle Elsa doll on amazon for £6 instead of £27!!

Ooh just to update my look fantastic order I mentioned yesterday came today with free delivery, the free gifts for spending over £60 included very decent travel sizes of posh looking facial oil, leave in hair treatment, facial moisturiser, full sized lip pencil and a handbag sized bare minerals foundation with a powder brush, and a detangling wet hairbrush. This korres set was good value with 20% off, there is only 10% today so would be £8.40. Am a little miffed as I missed the fact TCB was about 7%, today is 10.5%. tcb

Finally ordered the gift from VERY at a great price with code and cashback, only to notice on confirmation that the delivery date in end of Jan! So had to cancel. Bang goes my bargain.

The cars factory had those mini snow globes in

Thatsnot shouldn't be, I didn't use their previous voucher either. If it doesn't come next week maybe worth drop them a line wondering whether your Christmas card has been lost in the post?

Anyone know any real-life shops selling moleskin notebooks? Thanks!

Sorry, don't know if it's been mentioned but there's a up to half price sale at mothercare including ELC toys with an extra 20% off using code TOYS20. It did include some half price happy land stuff so it would be 70% off - I noticed the happy land mega village set was reduced from £100 to £40 and with the extra 20 it would only be £32!

I think paperchase do iggi but I don't know if there are any bargains to be had there

Thanks for the lookfantastic tip, yumy, have bookmarked site for a proper look when everyone is out of the house!

Waterstones usually have moleskin

Picked up this doll with accessories today in Morrisons for £5, it's quite biggish (like Baby Born size). It's a 'drink and wet' doll too

Grabbed two of these as well for a fiver each, going to put them away for my niece and nephews first birthdays (they were only born in September and October )
They're normally around £15-20

Thanks Lucy and YaMa - have a waterstones near me so will go there. I'm getting past the stage of bargains and just into the stage of desperate!
In IKEA today, nothing bargainous but they did have new ones of their soft cuddly toys - a polar bear and a husky. we may have brought one home

So, Pieface is out of stock everywhere! Anyone know of a good alternative silly family game? The cheaper version, 'splat' seems to have bad reviews.
