Christmas Bargain Ideas Thread 1. We have lift off!

[Reastie]

Wow, prequel is all filled up and it's not even august!

So I will start a new op at some point but since it's only July and things will be slower the links will portably be out of date by the time the next thread starts so I'll save that for later.

Welcome everyone to Christmas Bargain Central, a place to post and share ideas and offers .

Last year b&m had some cheap smores kits in (£2/3 if I remember right) in their American sweet section-cheapo alternative if people prefer maybe?

As from 1st November Sipsmith website will be selling gin filled Christmas tree bauble bottles at £25 for boxed set of 6

Now a B&M £2/£3 smores kit is more my style! Will keep an eye out for those. Thanks

I'm sure this website has already been mentioned on a previous thread but shoeaholics has got lots of shoes and bags in their clearance section, including Kurt Geiger bags, some up to 75% off.

Furby connect £34.99 on amazon

Thanks Betsy. Looking to get a hoodie for 13 year old girl - didn't see anything nice in Nike sale unfortunately.

Aldi baby and toddler event starts 17th but you can pre-order online now, some cute toys.

We make our own s'mores- 2 rich tea biscuits, 4 "giant" cadburys buttons and one marshmallow. Put in the microwave for 20seconds. The dc love them

I got a label maker from Amazon a couple of years ago. Not particularly bargainous but I do love it!

I need to make those s'mores Christmas, I'm adding the ingredients to this weeks shopping :)

Thank you for ideas bargain hunters - have a couple of tshirts for granddaughter and some man socks coming from Mountain Warehouse and a couple of bits from Lisa Angel (never heard of them before). I get quite stressed if my Christmas sopping hamper is filling up by October so never too early to start. I always fins that if you leave it late you dont get such interesting gifts let alone bargain ones and I love feeling all smug and relaxed in December whilst everyone gallops about like headless chickens. It's not like Christmas takes us by surpise is it?

I was coming on to mention the s'mores kit from b&m, but beaten to it!

I've bought dd2 a Lego elves queen rescue set from amazon this morning, down to £32.49 whilst over £60 some other places

I'll post some pictures later on if anyone would like to see, but I've been very impressed with the new stationery at poundworld! They have a cue unicorn range with lovely sets, a flamingo/pineapple range and a range for older children which is marble/gold... bought quite a few pieces for the dds going back to school but would be fab for stocking fillers too.

For the people looking at s'mores kits amazon do some similar kits and the brand has quite a variety and prices don't look to bad why have I added a sticky toffee pud kit to my basket when I'm doing slimming world

I've just bought an inflatable kayak for my DH for Christmas, it's for him and my DS to go and play (I'm not a water baby), and it was only £44.95 from Outdoor Value, it's the cheapest place I've been able find one, and the price includes a foot pump and the oar. Thought it was quite a bargainous price

mrsCrimbo that's a brilliant price! definitely not wondering who I can buy an inflatable kayak for

playmobil 1.2.3 boat £17.99 reduced from £29.99

My 2 year old has her 3rd birthday in December, and I am managing to almost fill my wardrobe already with gift ideas for her big sister but I can't think of anything for her! She gets a lot of hand me down toys, poor thing, and when I ask her what she wants for her birthday or Christmas she says strawberries...
Any present ideas for the most adventurous, energetic, loving, adorable almost 3 year old?
