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So I will start a new op at some point but since it's only July and things will be slower the links will portably be out of date by the time the next thread starts so I'll save that for later.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

Magpie have Sale on. Still not particularly cheap compared to some of the bargains you lot have found but some nice and unusual bits on there. I think it was a popular site on these threads last year.

The "Live Fast , Dine Young" range would be good for guitarists, drummers, musicians in general, there's also a lot of stuff with birds on and retro feel odds and sods

Does anyone know if b&m do those s'mores kits all year round or are they special for Christmas?

Hi, first time poster but long time lurker on this thread. I'm struggling this year for DH. He's really good at buying my presents but I always seem to be stuck for ideas for him. Has anyone come across anything good for the men on their lists?

Nzou they're all year round, mine have some in just now, £2.99

There's a rocket one and others too

Thank you for the Superdry link, just ordered some espadrilles, been after some summer shoes to replace my comfy ballet flats for ages!

They had lots of trainers half price and hoodies, so worth a look for anyone who likes the branded stuff.

Code works on Halfords sleeping bags too some of them, like kids secret garden one

Oooo exciting, thanks llama

Thought I'd show you a couple of my Lisa Angel bracelets I got today. They are lovely, fantastic quality and packaging. There's 3 more but I didn't have them out when I was taking pics!

MooPoint Shopkins has a strawberry in it so you can get a cuddly Shopkins strawberry, a cushion and all number of things with it on. Funky does a plastic POP version of it as well. If it has to be a bargain eBay has Chinese versions of the soft toy.

National trust shop sale.

hexbug tony hawk circuit boards remote control board set £3.75 reduced from £15. Reviews are really good but (full disclaimer here) I haven't got a clue what it is or what it does. But something skateboardy for older kids who like that kinda thing 👍

Continuing from the LOL doll madness, toys r us still have series 1 dolls. Just about the only place I can find them at normal prices.

Very has 2 series 2 dolls at £18.99 so that saves a quid on the normal price.

And finally there's a new product out, LOL charm fizz ball at £3.99 and a Fizz Factory playset where you can make your own balls. But be warned it looks shite but I know DD would love it

Girl our toys are us has the series 2 dolls (£9.99) and the baby sister ones (£5.99) , and little fizz surprise balls with a charm inside which I'm presuming go with the new playset?
(£2.99) I asked about series 1 as my dd still likes collecting those but she said they weren't stocking them anymore.

Smyths have the series 2 little sister dolls a pound off, making them £4.99

Love the heart one Drab

@christmasunicorn thanks for tony hawk hexbug link , my son will love these 😊

Popped to shops after work and Claire's have buy 3 get 3 free across almost everything in store. Also had other discounts on other bits I bought some stocking fillers for dd's.

howto I think the factory can make the fizzy balls so it's just a bit of fun. You can hide stuff in them.

Here's the link for the series 1 dolls online

I knew I shouldn't have checked into this thread, I've spent £50 today! £30 at Tinc on stationary for the family children and £20 at Lisa Angel on 4 of those lovely necklaces linked to earlier. I don't know who is going to get them yet but they seemed like a bargain at £1.40 each.

Hi, I mostly lurked last year but you guys have got me feeling Xmassy already. This year I'm after the impossible I think....bargainous sylvanian families!

Moopoint i know you now have a million strawberry suggestions now but lotso bear from the disney store smells of strawberries. Ive had ours 3 years and he still smells gorgeous 🍓
