MyGeekBox has got 2 for £10 on selected mugs, including a My Little Pony one (a Twilight Sparkle one, sadly not the Rainbow Dash one) - [http://www.mygeekbox.co.uk/merch-accessories/my-little-pony-star-power-mug/11100199.html offer mug]]

Lots of Harley Quinn stuff here, including t-shirts in the 2 for £20 offer.

I also have a Boden referral code - just send me a PM if you'd like one (you get 20% off your first purchase and I get £10).

WuTangFlan · 13/09/2016 09:14

This looks like it could potentially be a great bargain, if anyone is interested in MyGeekBox:

You can use code POKE1 to get free pokemon headphones with your order - if you get "Geek Box Lite" it's on offer at £9.99 with a value of £20, and that qualifies for the free headphones. There is also a referral code which gets you £5 off your first order (and £5 for me for referring) - my code is AMY-R9U if anyone is interested. So, in theory you could get the headphones plus the box for £4.99...

Geek Box Lite - despatches Oct 15th.

coffee Ive been charged by Iwoot too even though I'd already had cancellation email. Think my email said refund could take 3-5 days though so will wait a couple of days & see what happens

snow I've used your achica referral link but not ordered anything yet

SweetPeaPods · 13/09/2016 09:19

I've been charged by IWOOT too

EdwardTheBlueEngine · 13/09/2016 09:20

If anyone has a Boden code that they don't need then I'd be extremely grateful for one!

woodwaj · 13/09/2016 09:21

Just be aware of my geek box. Lots of fuss with them on the thread last year. I personally only received one of the two boxes i should have got and 16p cashback instead of £5

WuTangFlan · 13/09/2016 09:29

Geek Box update - not such the bargain: just tried with a friend, adding the referral code and the headphone code and it's either/or. :(

AdmiralCLingus · 13/09/2016 09:31

Oh woodwaj I'm sorry :(

I'm really annoyed with myself, I had two letters off them with promo codes on and binned them thinking I wouldn't use them

TobleroneBoo · 13/09/2016 09:36

Has anybody received their shark beds at all, or should we just presume that was a bust :(

I emailed seller on Friday but no response, I am gutted!

JesusDontWantMeForASunbeam · 13/09/2016 09:37

Geek box just worked for me. Thanks for the referral code. The headphones alone will make DS1 very happy!

My code is KAYLEY-RB if anyone wants to use it!

Clarabella8 · 13/09/2016 09:38

No sign of shark beds here either , ordered 3 (2 little dogs and a cat )

JesusDontWantMeForASunbeam · 13/09/2016 09:40

Bugger. Just checked order confirmation and headphones aren't showing up. Have just messaged them.

SweetPeaPods · 13/09/2016 09:41

Any ideas on a pirate themed present for a 5 year old. Max £30?

GerrardWinstanley · 13/09/2016 09:43

Thank you for all the amazing and inventive advent calendar ideas. I'm liking the idea of the Ikea bag. Minimal effort from me and an excuse to go to Ikea Grin. Can anyone remember when Ikea's Christmas section is up and running?

TomHaverford · 13/09/2016 09:53

Ideas for sporty/outdoorsy teens- surfdome outlet have a huge sale on with lots of North Facep/Patagonia tshirts and gloves, hats etc for less than a tenner.
I just brought a mens TNF jacket reduced from £370 to £104- down filled too.

ThomasRichard · 13/09/2016 10:02

SweetPeaPods a bit over-budget but this looks amazing! There's a step-by-step review here.

DiscoMike · 13/09/2016 10:05

Geek box warning please please don't use them. Look online for their bad reviews. Last year I signed up, 5 minutes later tried to cancel but my order was "despatched" yet didn't arrive for weeks. What turned up was poor quality and not worth it. But I wasn't worried because I'd already cancelled the next box. Except that arrived. So I sent it back. And made sure I had cancelled the subscription - again. Yes I had. But then, what's this - another box? I refused this at the door. I chased and chased and chased but despite removing my card details, cancelling on line and via phone, sending two boxes back (and receiving confirmation that they had received them) I never got a refund. And as I said if you look online at their shite reviews you will see that this is how they do business.

I've been lurking on these threads for weeks as I lost all my login info when that wally hacked MN ages ago and have only just got myself back on properly.

Just wanted to say I have got loads of things courtesy of people posting here and the stockings are all done so Thank You!!!

Just need to get a play kitchen for the 18 month DD and we're all set Smile

Ps also got a pet bed for DCat.

SimonNeilshair · 13/09/2016 10:15

Thanks for the warning Discomike, i was just about to order but don't think I will now. I've ordered other stuff off them though, Will that be alright do you think?

EmGee · 13/09/2016 10:22

Do Matalan do discount codes? If so, where would I find them?

WuTangFlan · 13/09/2016 10:29

Oh no - thanks for the warning DiscoMike. I assumed as they were part of the Hut Group (same as IWOOT) they would be sound. :(

TobleroneBoo · 13/09/2016 10:29

Sweetpea I also saw a cardboard, colour in pirate ship yesterday but It was a bit smaller and I think you wore it or got in it?

Found it, pirate ship

TipBoov · 13/09/2016 10:31

Checked my Iwoot account, blender had been cancelled, but I've not had an email!
