The Christmas bargain thread 1 - the one with no name

[RoastieToastieReastie]

I couldn't think of a name for the thread.

Hopefully links in message two work. Thanks to chips with helping me ok so she basically did it compile the initial list.

Here's to Christmas 2016

Where is the shark bed link please if anyone still has it fresh. I can't find it!

Ignore me. Shark bed found and ordered!!

Vinotime - I love the idea of the Christmas monopoly will sit tight in a hope that it drops in price.

Christmas bedding ordered from studio which is lucky because we only had 2 Christmas sets per bed along with a few other bits

The have swimming sets reduced to £5 for a character bag, plain but personalised with name towel and either armbands or goggles

3 for £12 on the Harry Potter adult colouring book range on amazon

Thanks LancashireTea I ordered a couple of lovely scarves from Lisa Angel one for DM and one maybe for a friend or me I was very impressed with free delivery with no minimum order value.

Thanks Firefly for the feedback I think I'll forget about Studio. Sooo many bargains to be had, thanks to this lovely thread.

If I'm ordering a lot I generally open in new windows and leave them open after adding to bag. That way they are all ready if I need to add it again, it's a precaution mainly because I shop then go through topcashback and open it in a new window that I then check out in

I logged in to my account and then checked out and it was all still in my basket

If you fancy giving it a third go then that's what I would advise, leave the pages open and log in before you try to check out

Thanks for the suggestion FeelingSmurfy

Disney Elsa doll, £13 was £30

Thank you to whoever said about the disney books!

Pokemon Badges

Hope the link works.

To be honest there is probably cheaper but I was getting a bit of eBay rage so picked a decent seeming seller and just clicked buy. Not the bargain hunter way. .

This seller sent quickly - arrived in 11 days! Packaged well so the case was perfect - some others sellers had feedback complaining about destroyed boxes.

I actually gave my 11 year old this today and he was properly over the moon with them, so I can definitely recommend them for other Pokemon fans.

Thanks ovo, just ordered some badges.

I found some 2016 annuals on amazon for 49p each.

Amazon just screwed me over with the beat bo!! I ordered one for me and one for a friend. Amazon just dispatched.

i managed to cancel one but the bank is holding the money and the other one was dispatched.

I didn't have the money this month. I have £40 for a week. Going to go cry now. Bastards

(i dont normally order stuff when i dont have the money. But got the email update at 11pm and they dispatched at 4am. so no chance to cancel)

Hi again everyone really need to stop buying Christmas presents for ds as I have 5 birthdays before !

Ooh I love this thread, have lurked for years!
Quick question on the mermaid blankets. DDs love mermaids and a relative sent them swim tails as a gift. I then got stung for almost £30 import duty . As they come from China, are there any additional charges or is the price on the site the price you pay?
I also have a challenge for all you brilliant bargain finders. DSis has got into camping and really wants a Coleman Comfort dual air chamber double airbed. Amazon had them for £17.99 + delivery a few weeks ago and I dithered, they are now up to about £37. When will I learn?! If anyone can find it for less I'd be very grateful.
Off to do real life shopping today so will report back with any finds.

Argh! I fell off the thread! Panic over.

beady i didn't get stung for anything

I ordered 2 mermaid blankets (one after the other) and have had no additional charges beadyboo.

Thanks everyone that's posted the Pokemon bargains. I've ordered pikachu, gym badges and a cap.

Beady the item has to be marked as a gift - it it isn't customs will charge.
This happened to me with relatives sending Christmas gifts from Canada. I think you can refused to pay it and it gets sent back but then of course you have no gift,

Side - yes I got the email about the beatbo (I also had a thread baby in September last year, he's walking and trying to talk, how?!) thankfully I have the money but I really feel for you. It was so sudden and there was no time to cancel as you say. I was grateful it wasn't coming till October for budgeting and I'm sure most people were too.
