Is there a discount avout for Wish website?

I want to order DD a Harry Potter hat.

Is wish a decent company to order from? Anyone had any problems?

Letustryagain · 09/11/2016 16:29

I received a couple of White Stuff 20% off codes in my BookPeople order today if anyone wants one. Drop me a PM because I'm not sure if they're specific as they have different codes on...

Was just I'm m and s- if you are in today check the kids clothing section for a final reduction area. Got Halloween socks in a pack of four or five pairs reduced from £6 to 0.39. Also Halloween onesies and t shirts reduced to about £1.

Lovemusic not sure of your budget but they have sloths in build a bear both in the store and online.

Lovemusic33 · 09/11/2016 17:09

Thank you, I will look at build a bear for a sloth.

NoFucksImAQueen · 09/11/2016 17:35

Thanks zeusette
I think some things on there are expensive but the magnets and prints are definitely good value. Delivery was a bit slow which was fine for me but might be a pain if you needed something quick

NoFucksImAQueen · 09/11/2016 17:48

I'm also going to use the polaroid style photos as gifts and use the caption to write out a long message over the space of several photos.e.g a lady I was caring for recently passed away. Her daughters have said they class me as family since I was going for so many years and they love my kids etc, so I'm going to print off photos of them and their mum and us and have the message "thank you for making us part of your family" across the photos.
It's a super cheap gift but from the heart and will mean more than the most expensive fragrance set or anything else

Can someone help...on one of the earlier threads there was discussion about Pokemon cards....my DS (always late to any fashion) is now expressing an interest (my ears are bleeding)

-but i can't find which thread it was in....so if someone could point me in the right direction would like a good price for real ones ! as I know theres lots of fakes but neither of us would have a clue.... thanks

Haudyerwheesht · 09/11/2016 18:49

averythinline I think the website recommended was chaos cards

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 09/11/2016 18:59

I have wanted this sloth teddy for so long why does DS not collect soft toys??

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 09/11/2016 19:02

Not a sloth but I also think she is gorgeous hen
Or I need to stop now!!

RoastieToastieReastie · 09/11/2016 19:17

Unicorn must be the Christmas trend (we are such trendsetters with Robert!)as there was a whole unicorn section in Sainsbury's with the Christmas gifts too.

Able Of the four things I've ordered from Wish 2 never arrived and one was of questionable quality...

Haudyerwheesht · 09/11/2016 19:34

Anyone know about Pokemon cards?? If you had £25 to spend on a related present what would you buy ??

perditalost · 09/11/2016 19:36

A man on Leeds station tonight - mid 2Os alone. Clutching a giant Robert.

I was so tempted to take a photo but it would have been obvious. was he waiting for a date?

Also wanted to say thank you for the playmobil codes, my order arrived today and I'm so happy with it all, very impressed with the playmobil store, even full price some of the things I ordered would have been way cheaper than amazon etc so I will be using them again.

lifelongfrugaleer · 09/11/2016 19:59

Have the playmobil codes stopped,. Please can someone remind me of them?
Unlucky playmobil customer service is awesome, not to mention free spare parts for sets.

unicornsarenotjustforchristmas · 09/11/2016 20:03

Dd once got a cuddly duck-billed platypus toy from her schools Christmas fair. It is the most awesome cuddly toy ever! So do check out the tombola

Unluckycat1 · 09/11/2016 20:05

I think the codes stopped the day after they were posted, lifelong sorry :( good to know about the spare parts!

ipswichwitch · 09/11/2016 20:13

Someone up thread asked about the Death Star ice mould - I got mine about a week after placing the order.

BWatchWatcher · 09/11/2016 20:20

Pokemon cards
They all want Ex Pokemon/Mega Ex Cards. You can buy the EX Boxes on amazon, tesco or argos. They had some tins in the argos 3 for 2.
Beware the ebay mega ex cards because they are fakes (apparently).
I also bought card covers in Toys R Us the other day which brought much joy. You can also buy 'Break' boxes which they like.
