Welcome one and all, see post two for links.

Any referral links to go on this separate thread please

Ha iced- funnily enough I have been putting of buying stockings for exactly that reason- I would hate to have one child the odd one out or to have to re buy them!

Hope you find one somewhere.

ja9r I'm a bit jealous. I could just do with a nice cuppa and that mag!

Ooh. Mine is here too.

@cookiefiend I wish I'd waited, wise move

@Santaclauseiscomingtotown I've just looked back at my past orders on AliExpress and it was Cocoon Grid It but it seems they don't sell them anymore as it says "no longer available".

The seller was 'China (Zhejiang)' if there's a way of searching by seller - I'm wondering if they just can't use the name Grid It due to copyright or patent??

Yay!!! Delighted that Sainsbos are doing the nectar double up in Nov - was so annoyed they cancelled it in the spring

If you login to the nectar desktop site enter "e rewards" into the search box & register with them.

The surveys are worth 100-300 points. They pay out every 1000 points , keep old survey invites and click on them to get more surveys..

I've linked my nectar card to my online shopping account so I can do my Christmas shop for free this year.

I've found a perfect stocking filler for my 10yo DS. Would make an idea gift for a football mad kid/teen/adult. It's called the Boot Buddy. Such a simple concept. It was on dragons den and backed by 3 dragons. You basically fill it with water and one end is a scraper and the other is a stiff brush. No more muddy boots! Brilliant. It cost £12.99 but there is a £3.99 delivery charge.

Talking of dragons den, my cousin and his business partners were on it recently. They've come up with something called Pouch. You download it (just to android devices ATM) and it will automatically search for discount codes when ever you go to a retailers site and the code will pop up. It's a brilliant idea, in fact, all the dragons wanted a slice of the pie 😀 I'm a little bit jealous I didn't come up with the idea given my shopping addiction and he was rich to start with sob

IceLemonGin Primark has some lettered stockings in store but not the same as the one in your photo but maybe close enough.

Train set is half price in ikea atm, and with the £5 off voucher with the family card a bargain for £7 if you can brave the half term crowds.

@icelemongin are these from marks and spencer any good?

Does anyone know, has the Sainsburys toy sale finished or will it still be on tomorrow?

Can second the Boot Buddy as a top up present for boys (and girls!) that play sports where their boots get muddy. DS is 12 and desperate for one - he was going to buy with his own money...

Managed to stop him as I have one for him ready for xmas - although might be a bit big as a stocking filler unless you have big stockings as it would fill most of the leg of ds's stocking.

They sell them in Sports Direct as well - in store so no postage or you usually get a £5 voucher back to spend in store when you pay £5 for delivery. I usually end up getting rugby or footie socks or a tshirt as they always get used!

Lands End have £10 off over £40 spend with free delivery with code WARMER

Just spotted and bought this for my OH www.groupon.co.uk/deals/build-on-brick-mug-19

Sad that the White Company Beauty Advent Calendar is sold out online. Anyone recommend any other beauty/fragrance ones? Jo Malone too pricy for me sadly

Have a look on ebay.co.uk for the build on brick mugs - they are £4!

I've just had an order delivered from hogies online. It's a Dior gift set and it was £21.99 rather than £59.99. It's definite genuine and in perfect condition however it does say spring 2015 on it. It would still be an ideal gift for a teenager, trying to decide whether I give it to dd1 or keep it for me.

Anyway they have the deluxe body shop advent for £59.99 not £89.99 and code HOGIES5 should give you another £5 off. Free delivery too. Any good ByAllMeans?

Thanks Rj will take a look at the body shop one!

There is also an advent calendar thread somewhere in style and beauty.

I'm looking for a coffee advent. I can find plenty of tea ones...has anyone seen a coffee one?

30% off www.veryexclusive.co.uk until the 27th with code PASSITON

20 Full sized play doh for £11 on Amazon.
In a yellow school bus box which my DS will love hope he doesn't notice I've been dipping into the one I bought and there's only about half left

*@RJnomore1 I got this onee from 'not on the high street' last year - was lovely but not bargainous although o2 sometimes have codes

Ooh that looks ideal! Thank you! Will look for a code now...

Thanks lancashiretea and bunbunny
I've just bought two of the lego build on mugs for the older (almost teen) lego lover nephews
I went for the eBay ones - £4.50 each because I wanted red.
