Nope, I have no idea what a present shitting log is either.

See post 2 for links etc and note the addition of a link with more info to the mn Christmas appeal, a very good cause if you're looking to donate to charity this Christmas time.

Did anyone else take up the Mumsnet Beano offer of 12 issues for £12? I did and just received this morning a fantastic boxed Beano Prankopedia with free catapult! Seriously impressed, I didn't have a clue it would be sent and thought that the 12 for £12 offer was fantastic anyway! Brilliant - I can now wrap it up and give it to the DC on Christmas day...a lovely way to tell them about the mini subscription. Thanks MNHQ for the offer Flowers

Try Amazon
Or very with a new customer discount may be bargainous

woodwaj · 10/12/2016 15:08

Ive received this offer from Amazon.

Place an order via the prime now app and add either chilled corona 4 pack or a packet of morrisons the best mince pies and enter code XMASGIFT to get one free with your order.

Its until stocks last. They had what i wanted on prime now but dont accept amazon gift vouchers so i didnt bother :(

SilverGiraffe7 · 10/12/2016 15:14

I'd did, AdmiralSnackBar, and have spent ages trying to work out why they sent me the extra prankster box - but I'm pleased I'm not going mad!!! I haven't had a good look at it as the kids are about but I'm sure they'll love it!
I did wonder for a moment if I'd started ordering things in my sleep... Confused

Strawberryfield12 · 10/12/2016 15:20

bonnie Charles Thyrwitt ATM have 6 free bottles of wine on £50 or more spend. Don't think any code is required, you were asking for deals on jumpers and wine, surely CT do some jumpers?

bonnieweelass · 10/12/2016 15:45

cheers strawberry, was also looking at their ties

IAmAPaleontologist · 10/12/2016 16:02

Oh dear Mrs cocoa. My solution would be that once letters have been sent off to Father Christmas then that's it and all further ideas must go to next year's letter or on a birthday wish list. But maybe I'm. Just mean Xmas Grin

ThornyBird · 10/12/2016 16:18

afternoon, has anyone got a Joules code please?

2legit2knit · 10/12/2016 16:21

I got the Prankopedia too, DS will love it. It's going to be a lovely big parcel under the tree too!

Changingagain · 10/12/2016 16:34

If you don't mind the xbox being 2nd hand then eBay or local groups on fb. Or just mention it to everyone you know, we sold our old xbox cheaply to a colleague a few years back because he just happened to mention he was after one for his kids. It was just sat there not being used.

Admiralclingus · 10/12/2016 17:37

I was DONE but twitched today and bought dd frozen junior monopoly from argos for £7.99 instead of £17.99. I saw junior monopoly of some description in home bargains for the same price and decided she was too young for it, but she played it at a friends today and loved it! (And won!) Seems like quite a good price for it

Badders123 · 10/12/2016 17:44

I twitched too Blush
Lynx set for ds1 - the one he likes is hard to find now
Moon shaped night light also for ds1

Whattodowithaminute · 10/12/2016 18:20

confused think that Thorntons hamper is one that I got a couple of weeks ago, (was down to £25 when I bought it) it arrived in a brown box with the individual boxes of chocolates in their normal packaging

Howmanysleepstilchristmas · 10/12/2016 18:41

Thought I was done, but ds(3) just asked Santa for batman. Which I haven't got. Obviously.
My budget now is as little as possible (unfortunately I suspect he means the imaginext bat cave). Any bargainous batman stuff that may make him happy?
Luckily ds (4) just wants cookies...

Badders123 · 10/12/2016 18:45

I would try b and m or home bargains

ASpiderInTheManger · 10/12/2016 18:57

Almost done..
Need to buy two presents for 18 and 21 year old boys around £5 each. I saw some Lynx sets in wilko today, is Lynx a bit young for this age group? Does anyone have any other ideas?

Badders123 · 10/12/2016 19:04

That age I would suggest a costa or Starbucks voucher

CarrotVan · 10/12/2016 19:05

Gillette, Adidas and David Beckham gift sets are usually available in B&M or Home bargains for £5 or less aspider

Catanddogmake6 · 10/12/2016 19:07

Howmany given he is still quite young would a cuddly batman work? Ocado sell one but not very cheap (although I managed to get half price a while ago in 50% off offer) and I'm sure others do.

scoobdoob · 10/12/2016 19:11

Regarding the Beano subscription. I have received the free gift but no comic. Have you had yours?
I did ring up but they confused me by saying it is out on the 14th but that is not what the first email said. I was expecting it on the 1st. Does it come in a clear bag?

Thanks

Coldilox · 10/12/2016 19:13

Can someone tell me what the M&S recordable biscuit tins look like? I accidentally bought the musical ones today, no ability to record!

Tiggles · 10/12/2016 19:16

Thanks to this thread the next time I go visiting in a clerical collar and someone takes a while to answer the door I will be assuming they are frantically hiding Holy Flaps merchandise Grin

Coldilox the recordable tins are a gold, squarish tin with red or green ribbon criss crossed over it( bit like a present). There is a button to press on the top.
