Christmas bargain thread 3 - I'm back!

[Reastie]

Look at post two for some hopefully useful links/info.

Has anyone ordered the fake Shopkins from Ebay, Wish or Aliexpress?

Can anyone recommend a seller they used?

Also did your DD mind that they didn't come in boxes with the leaflets explaining who they were?

I did an order with wish in the end (Pokemon plushes)
I'll let you know re quality etc when it arrives

Does anyone use a price tracking app similar to camelcamelcamel?

Have been part of the Xmas bargain threads since the beginning but learnt not to start too early as I end up with far too much! So have waited till I returned from holiday.

Have just done an order from Sports direct for the HP stickers and badges and a few frozen bits including a paint your own Elsa reduced to £2.

Barginous M&Co order, lots of lovely Harry potter clothing and a 2 way MLP top all with 25% and free delivery.

Thanks for the tips!

knope2020 (is that a Parks and Rec reference? Is so I love it!) I'd appreciate that!

It certainly is jangle
😁

Can anyone recommend a dolly sling for a toddler? Would love to get an ergo one (that is what we have for DC) but at £25 I wonder if there are any other cheap but good versions out there? Preferably buckles not ties.

Oh if anyone sees a non kinnerton brand Pokemon advent calendar can you let me know??
Thanks!

I was in B&Q this morning and in the sale I picked up some outdoor toys (frisbee, soft tennis set, Chucky rocket thing) for a couple of quid. I also got a 'sit & draw table' for £10 and a kids fold up chair for £5. I'll be saving most of it for next summer

I cannot remember who was looking for parks and rec merch but I ordered this MouseRat T-shirt and it arrived today.
It is good quality for the price but I would say slightly smaller than I expected, so maybe size up?

Cool!!

Thanks for that...just ordered it for ds1 :)

Came across this whole trawling thru sports direct. Live pets that PPs were talking about, don't know if this is a good deal or not.

Delivery not cheap at £4.99 but maybe worthwhile if ordering other things! I've seen a few wee things to do my DD 2yo

no problem knope! It is my favourite show of all time. They also have a little sebastian one that I am thinking of buying for myself

I've got a Ron swanson pop vinyl on ds1s list :)

Lidl have pirate/ unicorn/devil rubber ducks in their Irish catalogue (mon 11th) for €1.99 so worth keeping an eye for in UK as stock is usually similar goes off too google if rubber duck obsession syndrome kid a thing

Ooh DS2 would love a unicorn rubber ducks (he is obsessed with both nusual rubber ducks and unicorns ) if anyone sees any in English Lidl's, let me know please

This thread is torture as I am on a spending ban this month due to an humongous tax error in DH's pay but soooo many bargains that I am going to miss

@Reastie inspired by you I did a big tinc order and it came very quickly. One item was damaged and I'd forgotten to order one thing and they put replacements in the post really quickly. I was very impressed by their customer service so if you call them I'm sure they will try to put things right.

Just seen and bought large tubs of play doh at Aldi. 79p a tub.

Not strictly bargainous but I'm looking for a child friendly CD player for DD1 (4). Extra points if it's a bargain.

ryan cd players not particularly bargainous but a good selection of child-friendly ones to give you some ideas. Could probably Google ones you like and see if they are cheaper elsewhere

Does anyone have any John Lewis codes? I have £150 of clothes for DS in my basket. Mostly pjs but I have his Christmas ones in as I have been caught out every year up until now. Feeling slightly smug. Well except I haven't checked out because I could cry at so much money

Not had a phone for a few days so just catching up on the thread.
lexie we've had wooden food from Wilko which is good price. But also might be worth looking at TQ toys as they have Melissa & Doug stuff at good prices, cheaper than Amazon. They also sell some items cheaper with damaged packaging- the stuff I've had could barely even work out what the damage was meant to be

travelling my dd has this one from Wilkos. It's might not be as robust as the ergo, but she's happy carrying her baby dolls around in it.

travelling build a bear do a good carrier - dd has it and puts teddies and dolls in it. Think it was about £6/7. Before that I used to have to tie a scarf around her for her dolls 😂😂

strawberry my dd (5) has a plastic pj's masks set of figures from tesco (not a bargain at £14.99 but well made and she loves them) other bits that are used a lot - imaginext particularly the batcave, argos art tray (was about £10) used for arts, snack and lego!. Paw patroller and paw patrol figures. games - buckaroo, tummy ache, bugs in the kitchen, game of life junior are favs. Dressing up - especially accessories such as pup pad, hats, swords . Amazon fire tablet. Build a bear. Lego - box of simple bricks and small sets like mixels and people. Busy books - set if 12 figures and playmat - normally about £5 and loads of choice inc paw patrol, moana, guardians of the galaxy etc.

Knope wrapping already? That is impressive.

Frisky tinc have said they will resend. I'm crossing fingers everything is in stock.
