I love the unicorn hoody. Might get dd that.

My first issue of red magazine has arrived. I've not had time to look properly but it does have a code RED30 which it says gets you 30% off your first glossy box. They are usually £10 so £7 seems good value for a beauty box. You get 5 items which might be helpful for anyone making their own beauty advent.

White Company online only discount codes for 20% off and free delivery until 18/10

AN069 and AN288

I got three sets of 'use in store' code cards too with my Book People order

Decent discount on Gap at the moment - code STOCKGAP gets you:

20% off 1 item
25% off 3 items
30% off 5 items

It works on full price and sale stuff. Very helpful given ds's wardrobe needs replenishing!

Anyone looking for Shopkins ... I spotted in Sainsburys today the Halloween pumpkin 2 packs £2.50. Sadly they were sold out but should have more stock on Sunday. They were in the Halloween aisle (not the toy aisle).

Tbh the whole Christmas shebang at boots is a massive debacle!

FeelingSmurfy · 30/09/2016 10:50

Are there any m&s codes at the moment? Mum wants to do an order

I got 2 Baker Ross codes with my order, £5 off £25 spend, they are both different so I think they might be single use, message me or comment if you want one and I will send one over. They expire 31St of December

For anyone interested in the pig poppers, they have a Plants Vs. Zombie popper on AliExpress I got for DD last year. Peashooter is only £5.90 and free shipping.

The first of my many Wish impulse buys (a little gorilla pod type camera tripod for 95p) has arrived and look/feels really good for the money.

nickdrakeslovechild · 30/09/2016 11:21

Just been shopping IRL and got some fantastic bargains, my toys R us have lots of christmas things reduced at the front of the store, got a penguin fluffy had for 96p a lovely set of 2 christmas pens with post it notes for 96p which I am giving as TA presents, make your own cracker kits for 96p and best of all my local Santa is coming to .... colouring books reduced to 50p!! I have now sorted out my christmas party bags.

I wasn't keen on the Christmas stuff in my local Boots...didn't get anything and usually I get a few gifts there

woodwaj · 30/09/2016 12:31

The thing with boots is the 3 for 2 choice doesnt vary year on year its just the packaging :(

AmyAmoeba · 30/09/2016 12:55

Thanks ShoopShoop for the Schleich advent calendar. I think dd will love it and it's a nice counterpart to the Lego ones.

balalalala · 30/09/2016 13:14

scarlett sizing was pretty generous but dh can hardly be described as tall...

Hadiever · 30/09/2016 13:34

Saw this one earlier on another site.
Lego hard back books set of 3. Maybe useful for stocking fillers or the birthday party drawer

My Sainsburys has all their Star Wars stuff heavily reduced - think it's 70% off. Heat colour-change mugs for £2.40, hologram wallets £1.80, and various bags, bottles etc. Good for presents for DC friend's parties I thought!

cookiefiend · 30/09/2016 14:07

I have been searching for my early leaving centre birthday discount for ages to offer someone- just managed to find it in my inbox- 20% off if anyone needs it. I think it is still valid- has no end date I can see. PM me if you want it.

EmGee · 30/09/2016 14:24

I have bought a secondhand wooden doll house (for Barbie-sized dolls). I would like to supplement it with some more furniture - it came with a bed, bedside table, sofa, table, loo and bath. Any idea where I could find some more bits and pieces? (Not ebay)

alabasterangel · 30/09/2016 14:40

em if you are near an ikea they do a folks range of furniture which is Barbie sized?
