John Lewis have some half price crackers

Does anyone have an m&s code going spare please? I'd be so grateful.

Goodness knows what I ordered from sports direct at midnight last night, but I vaguely remember filling a basket!Xmas Blush

I've had 3 pairs of the 8 pairs of La Redoute pjs I ordered. Ordered age 8, the waists just about stay up on my chubby 6-next-week son, the legs need taking up at least 6 inches. Need to check my bank to see how many pairs I've paid for. So irritating- if you massively discount your stuff, be prepared to have to post loads of it out!

Spent 20 minutes frantically searching for the last present to wrap- it was in the other side of the present hiding wardrobe, but I didn't see any of the other missing stuff from this thread whilst I was there. Wrapping pretty much done, dd has a couple less things than ds and isn't at all likely to care (other way round would be disastrous). But if I go near actual shops, I might have a small twitch...

FabFlo Amazon have dc jackets like your pic at £19.79 and they can be personalised.
Can't do a link as at work but search for kids baseball jackets. Hope this is of help.

Just come to ikea to get a tree and only 6 left!! Parents got only decent one, so will be my fake one and pine scented air freshener for me now!!

If anyone has a money off voucher/ code for Argos that they don't intend using I'd be so grateful for it.

My camera has decided to pack up today and need to get a new one in time for ds1's nativity, hoping to do click and collect in time. Any money off would be fab and bargainous

G1veMeStrength · 14/12/2015 15:12

NoManJan, Poundland have 2 selection boxes for £1.50 - well they aren't cardboard boxes just sort of plastic packages.

For your 11 year old boy - Hype gym bag, £12?. Or Lego Hobbit only about £8 on PS4 (if applicable!)

mrslebon · 14/12/2015 16:02

Thanks to whoever posted the WINTER20 20% code for Joules. I used it in store today by just saying what the code was and they took it off at the till. Yay!

SconeForAStroll · 14/12/2015 16:43

Tiredoftiredness · 14/12/2015 17:35

Anyone else had an email from flavourly membership has recurred, and money has been taken from their account? Rather confused as no money has been taken, and when I log on it says no live memberships, and doesn't show any card details!

Very confused.

PepperMallow · 14/12/2015 17:38

Sorry if it's been done to death...could anyone give me links to or the name of sellers of Amazon vouchers which you can buy cheaper than the face value please? Are they reliable? In-laws had problems last year. TIA

Tired I have. I'm confused too! I may need to contact them. I was happy to get this months box anyway but when I went to cancel it said I had no live membership.

Fox28 · 14/12/2015 20:21

Thanks for the ladybird book suggestion - I've given the idea to DH who was struggling to think of something for his secret Santa 👍🏼
