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

I think someone was looking a football net upthread - this 7ft football goal is £12.99 down from £23.99

Thanks to whoever looked up kids fleece blankets for me!

I'm out of brandy after years and will have to buy a new bottle for Christmas cake making. So if anyone sees good quality brandy on offer... Lemme know!
Thanks

Smurfy YY to cashback sites, we save top cashback all year and in Novemebr get m&s vouchers - which pay for our Christmas dinner. Last year was well over 200quid, we'll be about 100 ish this year as we've already had some money out of there.

Looking for one of those trains that go round the tree anybody spies one let me know

Woodwaj - do you have a link for the M&S preview? I have well over 5000 points but no flipping invite the bastards

Just found the link further up sorry!

Oh my God I'm late to the party this year!!! I've missed the whole prequel and nearly the whole first bargain thread

Plus I've only got three gifts in the stash so far!!!!

I got the MLP stage for DD in Home Bargains for £9.99 last year. She loves it but just beware that the backing part is just cardboard and quite flimsy. Having said that though it was still a hit.
Also, the Equestria Dolls seem to have a fault (not sure if it's limited to the older original dolls) where the legs pop off quite easily and are ridiculously hard to get back on. I emailed Hasbro to ask for tips on how to re attach the leg and they couldn't help but did send out a replacement doll free of charge. Could be helpful if this happens to anyone else

Oh FFS - I have over 8000 flipping spark points but M&S sale preview not for me - I have a major flounce off and leave them but I have a gift card burning a hole my pocket

And I have Prime but cant get the Baby box either

first world problems

Chocolateteabag have a look back to page 36/37 and there are posts about what to do for the baby box. I couldn't get it to work, even with help from live chat, so he told me to order it at full price then he adjusted my order price to £0

Do you have student version, because it doesn't work on student prime

We have prime, I've set up a baby list but no box to claim . Was going to give to a colleague with a baby.

I didnt have enough points for an invite but i had a nosey at the link above and didnt need anything anyway

Amaxon baby box can only be accessed on a desktop was that mentioned above?

I got an email about the M&S sale preview. On the email it says 'As you have over 20,000 Sparks points' so I think you must need to have that amount or over to be eligible.

Reastie possibly for the main post

I found this back in April, apparently the dates for the Sainsburys 25% off clothing this year are:
23-31 August
20-26 September
25-31 October
28 Nov - 5 Dec
Then 16-22 Feb 2017

Might be helpful to give an indication.

DH could only get the baby box via his phone - didn't work on the laptop.

Geeky Deadpool/Game of Thrones hoodie with free t-shirt £13.99 here. I think my teen boys would love this. It doesn't show the t-shirt though so it might just be a plain one.

Roastie go on live chat and they should sort it for you, he asked me if I had set up a list (yes) added the baby box to it (no,so I did that but it still wasn't working) sent me 2 links to try (still showing full price) then said order and he will change the price, which he did while still on chat

Thanks for the Mountain Warehouse tip. I've just ordered a load of t shirts and micro fleeces for my DS, as well as a micro fleece for me and SIL, my first Xmas purchases.

DS has a coat from there and it is good quality and nice and bright.

I also ordered a baby box yesterday on Amazon, but had to have several conversations on live chat to get it free so it's worth persevering. Expecting DC2 in 5 weeks so it's very well timed.

Voldemort your link takes me to a pink elephant phone holder

The Ocado toy sale linked upthread has some Lottie dolls and accessories, different from the ones on Amazon already posted - think someone was looking for a horse rider one?

Thank you for the Ocado sale link, I always forget they do toys. I just got a couple of Orchard Toys games and bunch of bargain stocking fillers (various stickers, pencils, whoopee cushion etc).

Amazon has reductions on some of the toot toot stuff atm. Some are only a few pounds but the hospital is half price.

thread two here

Thanks for the Sains info firefly, have added it.
