ontheedge report them to Trading Standards for misreprenting their products or false description or similar if they are that badly sized and their customer service is so bad - might help to focus their minds a bit... [fnotgoingtobemessedaround smiley]

Ecofreckle I don't know if anyone responded to your question about Superdry discounts as I haven't got time to read the whole thread but last year Superdry did great discounts leading up to Christmas. On different days, they had 20% off t-shirts, hoodies etc. I had flu and missed the hoodies day so was kicking myself, when lo and behold they did another discount day on the hoodies of 30%. It was quite close to Christmas though - maybe mid-December?

Thanks very much for the castle wrapping tips, especially to flop and lapin -bike bags and partial build are both great ideas! Glad to hear it's a winning present too hopefully!

I'm feeling very pleased with myself [smug emoticon] and a good deal I have just bagged for my DD.

She has asked for a posh cleansing brush for Christmas and last night I found a Magnitone brush reduced to £60 on the Boots website. I thought I would have a shop around to see if I could get a better deal, and I did.

To cut a long story short, I got a rose gold Magnitone brush, an OPI nail varnish, a £20 Magnitone cosmetic bag and a £67 Monu skin care pack all for the sum total of £63.38 Grin plus I have confirmation that Quidco cashback has tracked too.

This was from Look Fantastic. The bag was free with a Magnitone spend of £50+ and I used the code ICONIC10 for a 10% discount off any £60+ spend and the free skin care set. It has been despatched already so I am pretty pleased I didn't go for the Boots deal!

On the edge - I'm sure if you bought them online you can change your mind anyway through the distance selling act

Tassimos we're £35 at Asdaliving yesterday

Pengweng · 13/11/2016 17:12

Secretsales.com have lots of whittards stuff discounted.
Lots of hot choc and loose tea etc

Strawberryfield12 · 13/11/2016 17:12

Remember people talking about bloom&wild flower subscriptions earlier on the thread, so thought I would share the code I found in the postbox. WHITE22 gives £10 off, no minimum spend.

On a happy note The White Company has sent me their annual £10 voucher. Got their 70 denier tights with 20% code. Bought them last winter and they are still as new after regular wear and machine wash/tumble dry. And unlike the infamous H tights, skirts don't get caught on them, spares constant checking for a bare boom. Really happy!

Lakeland code £5 off £30 spend, valid til end of November - 1180 0430 9146 7799.

I still haven't received my Red goody bag Hmm

SimplyNigella · 13/11/2016 17:25

Asda have 20% off some gift cards- Vue cinemas, Zizzi, Spa Finder and New Look from memory.

I'm trying to decide whether DS's nursery key worker would like a New Look gift card or whether it's a bit random.

FireflyGirl · 13/11/2016 17:27

For anyone with a geek to buy for, Zavvi have two Geek Tshirts for £20. 6% cashback through Quidco, and 10% off for new email addresses customers with code WELCOME so £18 with 6% cashback.

They have lots of festive styles in the offer, including an Elf one and Christmassy Batman.

Strawberryfield12 · 13/11/2016 17:39

wheat mine came inside a Christmas catalogue. Check them all before tossing anything out!

Oh, completely forgot I have returned from a travel to discover that Red have sent me 3 (!!) dandruff goody bags Shock. No idea what to do with the piles of bronzers and all.

Thekidsthatpukedxmas · 13/11/2016 17:39

Lemon lime loads of minion stuff is very heavily discounted in Argos, picked up all the Plush ones for £1.99 each (paid £10 last Xmas) and a tumbling Stuart for £9.99, it is all around 75% off

After a bit of help if there are any gin drinkers out there Grin? I want to get my dad a bottle of gin, something from a small producer if possible but not flavoured just regular gin! I'm not an alcohol drinker so any advice anyone could give would be great?

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 13/11/2016 17:49

2pandasandapig try Cotswolds gin, my dad adores it and even I (a none gin drinker) thinks it's absolutely incredible

TobleroneBoo · 13/11/2016 17:56

Can you buy the discounted gift cards online at adds?

TobleroneBoo · 13/11/2016 18:05

Asda*

SpaghettiMeatballs · 13/11/2016 18:07

Gah! Need a onesie for a 6 year old with fast delivery and hopefully cheap!

Just had an email to say DD needs to wear one on Thursday and she doesn't have one. I'm at work now so can't get to the shops.

Went to order one from Marks as I can pick up from Simply Foods but they are £20! Sainsbury's is the only supermarket near me and they don't have any on their website so not sure they sell them?

Heeeeellllpppppp me please bargain hunters!

1stTimeMama · 13/11/2016 18:12

Vanilla, ELC and Mother care have the Thats Not My books in their 3 for 2 offer, which ends tonight I think. If you have, or can get a birthday code, you'll get another 20% off the total.

VanillaLatteAndCake · 13/11/2016 18:23

Thanks 1stTimeMama, I'll take a look now.
