Baker Ross have 20% off toys with R735P or free delivery with R77D. I just stocked up on advent calendar fillers and christmas activities to do in December.

I ordered a few things from Joop - similar to Wish etc but without any P&P (someone had suggested them previously on the thread)

A couple of things have turned up already within two weeks. All small inexpensive things but great quality so far. Word of warning though, I ordered five different posters and the first one showed up yesterday. It was completely folded and shoved in a bag(?!) its obviously creased all over and unusable but I contacted customers services via the app, sent them pics of the damage and they've arranged a refund straight away. Pretty impressed with the customer service so far.

Let's see if the other posters turn up in the same condition!

I recently bought a scarf for the MIL from the joules eBay outlet. I was pleased with it. I had been eyeing up the grey oversized one for myself but was umming. Since you posted on here @cookiefiend I thought I'd better bite the bucket and snap it up before you guys raid the rails Wink

As a little bonus I had £5 I'd forgotten about in my PayPal account so it cost me £6.36 🎉 About 6 weeks ago I downloaded an app called VYPR, you earn points for answering questions while looking at pictures. It's all food based and you just select which ever photo appeals to you most. The surveys are very quick and the they're very generous. You need 10000 points to claim £5 but i've done that twice in 6 weeks so it adds up fast!

I've got my daughter a wooden play kitchen (second hand off FB markets, but looks fab)... anyone know where I can buy cheap wooden food? ELC is quite dear if you buy a few sets which I was hoping to x

Snooky17 · 03/09/2017 11:29

Lexie Lidl and Aldi normally do wooden food in run up to Xmas also wilko and asda

whyhastherumgone · 03/09/2017 11:33

@snowbodyforrm i downloaded that app but got to about 4000 points then it stopped showing me pics and kept saying "no steers for you at the moment" and blaming it on my internet connection which was fine, so i gave up on it.

Oh how annoying why have you tried deleting it and downloading it again? Hopefully it'll have your points stored when you login.

I'll be pissed if that happens to me, it's the best paying one I've had 😞

Sophia1984 · 03/09/2017 11:57

Following 😊 Trying to save up for all my presents using money-making apps this year. Thanks for the vypr tip @snowbodyforrm! Have you got Job Spotter?

whyhastherumgone · 03/09/2017 12:02

@snowbodyforrrrm yep tried it :( it doesn't have an in store option available so maybe i need to do that before i can get any more steers. Might email app support as well.

Polkadot1974 · 03/09/2017 12:03

Might have been posted but 30 multi coloured Sharpies £8 down from £22 at Tesco

RJnomore1 · 03/09/2017 12:15

Must go get those sharpies for dd2 before they're gone.

That cocosa site is good btw thanks whoever posted it .

OhOurBilly · 03/09/2017 12:24

Boohoo have 20% off most of the weekend. But it alternates between 20% off, cheap delivery/next day for £1.50/1.99.

20% is definitely he better deal. It's on on/off throughout the week.

Menswear has 40% off plus £1 delivery.

OhHolyFuck · 03/09/2017 13:00

If anyone sees any coffee deals, like the pact one for £1 like it was last year, will you give me a shout?

LexieLulu · 03/09/2017 13:04

Thanks @Snooky17 - I am super late on the Aldi/Lidl bandwagon!

Minster2012 · 03/09/2017 13:42

I received my lisa angel delivery yesterday and it's lovely, I'd never heard of them before so thanks to you lot. They also sent a discount code with it so I used one & happy to share others as u showed me the site, don't know if it's just one use (I used a 15% off £50 so if that doesn't work that's why) valid for a month...includes sale

10% off £30 code 114683
15%off £50 code 115632

Was there someone looking for rubber ducks ?
These ones from Baker Ross would be gorgeous for Christmas Eve baths.

Anybody looking for sports nutrition bits/gift box this looks pretty good: Amazon Bodypower Sports Nutrition Sample Box https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XHZJNFK/ref=cmswwrcppapi_Hg.QzbCZTFJ5V

It's got 11 bits in it I believe, £10 and you get £10 credit to spend on future sport nutrition bits. Smile

Annwithnoe · 03/09/2017 14:08

LexieLulu I know you said wood but Ikea do fabric food sets if that's any good to you. Very good quality.

PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 03/09/2017 14:17

@Cupoteap is this the one you mean? Or was it specifically the signed one? I think he was only going to sign the ones preordered on the 31st August.

AlexanderHamilton · 03/09/2017 14:27

luckiestgirl

My cornerstone link (I assume they are all the same) gives me & the recipient £10 credit.

As the blades are £14 & your first order comes with a free razor that takes it down to £4.

Dh loves them. My link is www.cornerstone.co.uk/7jul0246

SheStoodInTheStorm · 03/09/2017 14:45

I am after Fingerlings and little live pets ladybird/chick/mouse if anyone spots them anywhere on offer!

My local boots had loads of Botanics stuff reduced to £1-2 because they've rebranded the boxes. Good for stocking fillers or beauty hampers.

DumbledoresArmy · 03/09/2017 14:48

Any Trunki offers?

tootsieglitterballs · 03/09/2017 16:02

@DumbledoresArmy I seem to think Tesco had them in reasonably priced, and morrisons had an alternative version to them in
