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

Def children's magazine subscriptions - have you seen the cost!!

mayathebee · 24/09/2016 21:38

I'd love a discount on Bayard magazines - storybox and adventurebox - as I don't have anywhere near enough Tesco vouchers for a subscription but the kids love getting these magazines through the post.

Playmobil (especially fairground sets or advent calendars) or lego discounts always good.

A flip-a-zoo this thing
My kids saw them on an advert (and in Debenhams) but I don't want to part with £20 for one (especially as I'd need 5) so if they can be found at a bargain price we'll have a very happy house on Dec 25th

Early learning centre half price sale on now, just bought half price happyland farm for 2yo ds. They've got lots of nice bits in the sale.

SymphonyofShadows · 07/10/2016 13:25

I'll be holding out for the Soap and Glory set that Boots have for about £30 for me

From M&S it will be crackers, 'big' decorations when they are half price light etc, beauty advent calendar and hopefully the half price fragrance and beauty sets that they did last year. I got a half price Burt's Bees jar full of stuff that went down well with the recipient. Also very marked down decorations from Homebase or Sainsburys.

Ceaser1981 · 07/10/2016 15:06

Any playstation vr deals

WhatWouldTheDoctorDo · 07/10/2016 15:18

The new skylanders imaginators game. They're so blimmin' expensive when they first come out, but DS is desperate for it. It makes me weep how cheap they are 6 months later.

An eBay deal would be good - I've spent a fortune on 2nd hand discontinued Lego.

A Milton Brown deal is always good for presents.

And Lego of course!

Whatdoesaduckdo · 08/10/2016 11:44

Another one for the elc till

CuriosityWinsTheDay · 08/10/2016 15:52

Id imagine they will do the bath and body stuff too though.
