Thread 14 - the one where we sell our souls to the devil for the illusive unicorn fingerling

[Reastie]

Welcome one and all, see post two for links.

Any referral links to go on this separate thread please

Very cute but then I love lego and often buy sets I want for the kids .

Lots of Luvabellas in Tesco today it is hideous.

Does anyone know if Amazon prices will just keep increasing now. A few things in my basket have gone up.

Oh lord, got my stash out and I’m most definitely done 😱😳

Robosapien was the robot we got my son. It walks, dances, farts, says ow and a few other things you can do with the remote control. Think smyths have a black version. My son was far too young for it and now at four still doesn't play with it.

I’ve got a £5 off £30 spend at Lakeland voucher if anyone wants it

Thanks for the Penwizard code caffeinated . The Snowman booked is ordered and another gift ticked off my list with a lovely discount.

@Angryangryyoungwoman you put the code at the end of the web address. Laithwaites.co.uk/

Wow what a bargain! Would be a fab add on gift for the kids. If it's too big for their stocking, Santa could just pop it under the the duvet as they sleep so it's the first thing they see when they wake up

Can anyone recommend some portable speakers? Good quality but bargainous? Thanks

An absolutely lovely mumsnetter has sent be a discount code for Disney that can be used in conjunction with other offers so thank you so much for that, saved me £3.60 so essentially free delivery

But on my quest for a discount code I did find GIFTMAGIC which gives 15% off but can't be used with any other offers (so can't be used on the blankets) but might be useful for full priced stuff. No idea how long it lasts for but might help someone

AtSea1979 thanks

I've had an email from Lisa angel to say they're doing a £25 jewellery surprise box with contents worth st least £50.

Also amazon are doing sample boxes for women's beauty or men's grooming products priced £14.99 but giving you £14.99 credit to your account to spend on amazon beauty.

The women's one looks well worth it, the men's one includes a razor so may be good. It's effectively free if you use the £14.99 on things you would have bought anyway.

I got a unicorn fingerling - went into tour r us on the off chance

Can i ask the disney free delivery code telly? got a basket lol x

Thanks for the Lloyds banking tip, I had no idea that existed!

Not really Christmassy but I got DS some sealskinz mittons last week from hope valley saddlery. He had played in a bucket of water wearing them and his hands stayed warm and dry and they actually stay on (!?!?)so I've ordered another 2 pairs. They are down to £6 so a real bargain

For the poster who was looking for the Ali Express grid it type thingys, I’ve screenshot (ted?) the info.

I want one of those (IWOOT) - 20% off everything today only with 20MVC24
10% off a £50 spend at Debenhams YF23
20% off at Thornton’s MVC200
15% off all QWERKITY orders with AFSPARKLE
15% off Ernest Jones VCLOUD15

I get loads of these damn codes in my emails but never for anywhere I need to buy from, hope someone else can use them

Quick question for all the wonderbly wonka book owners please- is it worth the extra £6 for the hardcover book? I’ve finally given into temptation and decided to treat myself DS to one!

Paperchase have a few nice bit in their stationary sale, remember to go through top cash back too !

Ok knowledgable ones - talk to me about fingerlings.

I have managed to get my hands on 2 sloths (our local smyths had a shelf full this morning) and 2 white monkeys (ordered from toys r us). I also have a purple one and turquoise one on pre-order from smyths.

I KNOW it seems like a lot but I have 3 DD and hedging my bets somewhat. I promise I will return any unwanted ones to the stores and won't try and make money on them! (I know how hard it is to search and search for that elusive thing and would never do that!)

Anyway - here are my queries - I initially thought of getting them for my 7 year old DTs, but I know nothing about them - is it worth having more than one each? Are the sloths that much different from the monkeys? Would they also be suitable/fun for my 10 year old DD? DD1 is quite a young 10, and I feel like she might Mike them but then I'm wondering if they're actually aimed at like 5 year olds or something and would be far too babyish for her.

Help!

£10 off £40 spend onnsoecific items in amazon pantry.

@RJnomore1 Do you have a link for the Amazon beauty boxes please?

I'm interested in the Amazon sample box for women's beauty mentioned previously but I can't find it - is anyone able to link please ?

Got my M&S advent calendar, plus I got a very unbargainous personalised Santa sack in there for DS2(11). They print it while you shop. I had vouchers but it still makes me a bit when I think about the cost! He never asks for much and I think this will be the last year of anything Santa related, so it's the end of an era really.
