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

10 points to you logo Poor girl is having a bad brow day (I know the feeling.) I guess she will be the bargain that never was as they're now OOS everywhere nearby 🙄!

has anyone seen any of the Moana soft toys? They seem to be sold out everywhere, except for cheap looking ones from China on ebay.

Just a word of caution re: stockinformer - I have the page open on my phone and constantly refreshing, but it's not picking up the early morning stock that ToysRUs have had for the last few days. I've got 2 white ones and a purple one just by searching the website randomly and they have never appeared on stock informer as being in stock - not even after the event.

That's fingerlings I'm referring to obviously!

Can Argos codes only be used if you are having the item delivered as there is no where for codes when collecting?

Any suggestions for a hard to buy for SIL? Mid 30s, recently married, likes yoga, works in books - budget up to £50. Previous presents have been meal vouchers, throws, purse but fast running out of ideas!

Lakeland have £20 off their throws this month bringing them down to £25. Ideal for a DM or MIL present.

@balalalala Might be good for your SIL?

Don't know about her but looks good for me haha!

I just managed to get the original Game of Life for £13.19 at Argos with the FLASH20 code. I couldn't be bothered to look through all the sale items, so just popped stuff from my wish list into my basket and tried the code to see which ones it worked on. Off to catch up on the thread now...

@IHeartKingThistle have you looked at Gap for Christmas tops? Using the 40% off code YAYGAP all of mine worked out cheaper than supermarket ones. They aren’t actual jumpers though, more like long-sleeved t shirts. Just a thought.

You can't use buyagift referral voucher with the discounted £22 zizzi voucher, but if you search zizzi £30 voucher it gives you £15 off. £15 for 3 course meal and glass of wine for 2 people is still a good bargain.

Hi,

I’m looking for cheap stickers for a 2 year old. It doesn’t matter which pictures are on them. I don’t want to spend a lot as it’s just as an extra but I don’t want cheap stickers which will rip as he won’t be able to use them on his own.

Any ideas?

I’ve swapped my nectar points for vouchers while doing the shopping today - £40 tu clothing, £40 ttd wine and £20 toys. We are doing alcohol for Xmas dinner so will only have some beer/cider to buy with real money (I’m pregnant so the wine consumption has decreased dramatically).

@Avoca76 I’ve had good luck with stickers from the range, which reminds me they do fab little lift the flap books for £1 which I was going to get dd for her stocking (the one she has got quite wet on holiday and could do with being replaced)

Is the emergency gin still on offer - it’s nearly £10 delivered. Was there a code?

30% off Accessorize kids at the moment, some lovely bits for stocking fillers:

If anyone has a spare Lakeland code going it would be much appreciated!

wait4 or anybody doing the Sainsbury's nectar vouchers... when can you use the vouchers from please?

I don't want to swap my points in advance as if I don't get there in good time and the things I want aren't in I don't want to end up forfeiting points... also want to get there early to increase the chance of the things I want being in!

Cheers!

DH is impressed with how on the ball we are this year.

Troublesome early - mid 20's nephews are proving tricky. Any ideas? None sporty, or boozy. More arty.

Where Bonnies eyebrow??! Don't mean to laugh but I did have a little giggle - is there anyway you could paint an eyebrow on with acrylic paint? I'm hoping Argos get back to you with a resolution.

I looked through my Xmas list yesterday with dh, he thought I was finished - I'm literally only 10% done 😬

Waitfornothing - the code is getstartedfb
I have just ordered it successfully.

@thisandthat2017 thank you will try now
@bunbunny - pretty sure it’s wednesday (I work wed-Friday but have 2 decent Sainsbury’s nearby so could do the other if stuff is sold out.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I can get a 12 & 9 year old boy for £5? Their parents will just get a box of celebrations or similar, but I cant get the boys any food gifts as one has weight issues. I don't know them well so any ideas would be fab, is it doable for a fiver?

Free exclusive gift when you shop at loccitaine! I get a £5 voucher too x

@Llamacorn maybe a pack of Pokemon cards, or a big bar of chocolate with two £5 notes attached? I think boys are hard for stocking filler type gifts. A lynx gift set would please my 10yr old too.

Sorry just read about food issues. Scrap the choc. Do you mean £5 each or between them?
