Hi folks,

We're very impressed (and slightly intimidated!) by your bargain hunting and we'd like to lend a hand if we can.

We would love to try and secure you some exclusive discounts from your favourite brands to help Christmas budgets stretch a bit further. With that in mind it would be great to know what you've got your eye on and which brands you're hoping to find a discount for. We'll then try and pull a few strings to get you some great bargains. Of course, there's never any obligation to buy!

In the meantime we'll also be posting any offers that come our way on the Christmas Bargains thread, so keep an eye out for them Xmas Smile

Very - they did a £25 off £50 spend last November I think and I managed to do my husband a really good stocking. Supermarket deal on booze is always good.

itmustbemyage · 16/09/2016 16:55

Big white goods discount would be good, for some bizarre reason every year just before Christmas something major breaks down in our house. Fridge one year, dish washer another year, microwave twice (no I don't know what we do to them either0 Confused Then the hoover two Christmas's ago, must be the washing machine's turn this year. We even had a total toilet blockage one Christmas Eve, maybe I should just cancel Christmas Grin

RoastieToastieReastie · 17/09/2016 14:51

Hi Amy,

I'm looking for baby born and Blu blue dolphin for DD so some kind of good discount on a toy store would be great.

I imagine Lego would be a very popular one and l'occitaine is always a good one for gifts for myself

SnowBodyforrrrm · 17/09/2016 18:46

AmyMumsnet · 19/09/2016 10:25

Thanks for your ideas everyone - unfortunately we can't guarantee to fix itmustbemyage's toilet, but we're speaking to some of the brands you've name-checked here so hopefully we'll be able to secure some good offers for you all.

Another one for Xbox 1 please Grin

stripeyzebra32 · 19/09/2016 18:40

Not read the full thread but watched it this morning as was on the look out for a Xbox one with preferably a Kinect.

After trawling the shops all day and not seeing a single Xbox with the Kinect I came across this.

Xbox one & Kinect with dance central, zoo tycoon and sports rivals

It's £229 but £204 with discount code TDX-HTNK (£25 off over £150 spend)

That is a fantastic price and just paid for ours. The best deal we saw all day was just a console 500gb by itself and the was £199.

Here is the link:

Black Friday was shite last year, in 2014 I got an iPod and an iPad mini at good reductions.

Discounts from places like KoalaPak and ToucanBox.

Also places like Hobbycraft for Christmas craft activities
