As with previously, if I have missed a link you think would be good on the list please post on here or message me. Also if a link doesn't work anymore or an offer is no longer standing please flag it up by telling me in bold .

Firefly has reported the dates for the Sainsburys 25% off clothing this year are likely to be:
23-31 August
20-26 September
25-31 October
28 Nov - 5 Dec
Then 16-22 Feb 2017

Camel camel camel is a great amazon price tracking tool here

Top cash back here is a cash back site where you get a percentage of cash back from what you buy when you shop with certain retailers. Just search the shop you want to buy something from in top cash back to see if there is a cash back offer and follow the link on the site to go to the website you want. You can then choose to have the cash back directly in your bank account or have various vouchers. I've managed about £100 in a year but many seem to accrue more maybe I don't buy enough, that's a good excuse if ever I've heard one . You have to earn something like £5 in cash back before they start sending you money. If you need insurance etc they can have great cash back offers. If you follow the link above it will earn me referral credit.

Quidco here is another cash back site like top cash back but has a different offering of shops. See info above.

Grrr I couldn't get the happyland Safari, anybody any ideas on the age they are appropriate for? The 5 year old had decided she wants them Confused

I have a 2 year old so might buy a couple of token sets and see if they get used, but I was hoping to move on to playmobil. I might get a couple of playmobil figures and edge her in that direction!

TheImprobableGirl · 25/08/2016 08:00

Also popped into real life shops yesterday (dreaded back to school shop) and after a delightful hour and a half buying definitely not bargain school shoes (£38 for some tiny patent shoes 😡) I went into m and s and they have heaps of stuff in their sale- particularly shoes in a range of sizes. Really limited online but got glittery pumps for £5-£6 and lovely party shoes £7-9

Nursenat100 · 25/08/2016 08:12

Madcatlady thank you! I'm going to give them to my two best girlfriends so they are actually very bargainous and save me from thinking about it nearer the time

SideOrderofChip · 25/08/2016 08:40

theimprobablegirl

Playmobil do some lovely safari sets, maybe try one of those

thatslow · 25/08/2016 08:45

Admiral...I bought the bracelet maker set in b&m for £7.99. Also TKMaxx had sets of the tinies for £4.99 (I think), although was a month or so ago, maybe worth checking.

FlopIsMyParentingGuru · 25/08/2016 09:01

Theimprobablegirl try having a look at playmobil 1,2,3 as a crossover maybe? Not cheap but its indestructible and the boats still get used at bath time here five years on!

supermariossister · 25/08/2016 09:04

Mermaid tail here from eBay, UK seller. It's lake blue and was £18. Really cosy and a great length I love it.

Just got an email from Emma Bridgewater, 15% off everything over the back hol. No code so looks as though it applies automatically. Sale and seconds included in the discount too.

Mummyshortlegz · 25/08/2016 09:26

I was just coming to say about Emma bridgewater, too! Same as last year I think and cross site so pretty useful.

Not a huge bargain but free delivery until 10am Tuesday at the Natural History Museum shop with code BANKHOL10. If you sign up to their mailing list you get 10% off your first order. Lots of stuff for the dinosaur mad child (or grown up). Adult dinosaur tail anyone???

rainbowglitterunicorn · 25/08/2016 10:23

Good idea chip and flop I'll get 123 for the smaller and then try the safari set/ swimming pool for the eldest 😄

1122christy · 25/08/2016 12:10

For anyone getting Christmas duvet sets from studio, just to say I bought 3 single ones that had the personalised pillowcases last year and they are good quality. Iv got a bed wetter so their sheets were washed several times a week in December and washed up great, still looks new.
I'm going to get this year a king size one for me 😃

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 25/08/2016 12:19

Bought a transformer and a thunderbirds rocket, annual and dress up set ready for a Christmas collection. Not sure which ones there are but will try and find one that's uk based in addition to the link to hope shoeboxes

RoastieToastieReastie · 25/08/2016 12:58

Not a deal, but it could earn you money to spend on deals Smile I mentioned it last year too. It is a referral link but I only get a few pennies per referral, and only paid to me if I win.

Free Postcode Lottery

You check it every day, if you see your postcode you win. There are numerous different draws every day, just go on once day and click the different pages at the top

I hope someone on here wins before Christmas Smile when I first joined I shared on Facebook and within a week my friend had won!

FeelingSmurfy · 25/08/2016 13:01

From the same company, a new one with just one winner a day at the moment

Free Emoji Lottery

That is not a referral link

New winner selected at 7pm every night, but you can check (and claim if you are a winner) 24 hours a day
