SantaStalker check out Tiger if you have one nearby - loads of things for a pound which would be good for adults

Aldi sell the Xmas pud bin bags but they're just normal bin bag size? Also as with all things Aldi just because they've had them in the last few years doesn't mean they'll have them this year!

Spiderpants Can I please have the white company code? X

Thank you to the person on a previous thread who recommended the ‘lego’ tape from AliExpress. Really quick delivery, as you said, and looks good.

Amazon are selling 6 bottles of Campo Viejo Tempranillo Rioja for £25 delivered. Just ordered mine! Good for guzzling or splitting up for hampers etc

Went to go and use my double up voucher for Sainsbury's today (which I got a week ago) expecting the shelves to be cleared, but was pleasantly surprised with the stock and the number of staff present to help!

So I used a £40 voucher to buy dh a shirt and a jumper (that he had his eye on) and a couple of pairs of leggings for me). Only had to pay £4 in the end.

Then as I was leaving, I thought I'd double up again but this time for seasonal. So I had a £20 voucher and used it to pay for some fairy lights which were bang on £20, so no extra cost.

Now I don't have 2 nectar points to rub together! GrinBlush I'd better get saving again for next year!

Halfords Reindeer Bike Bag £3

DillieDoily · 16/11/2017 16:20

@RosieBdy which seller did you get it from? I need to order some ASAP!

torthecatlady · 16/11/2017 16:22

@TellMeItsNotTrue
The voucher came today for build a bear! Thank you so much! SmileStar

I had an email from Argos either yesterday or the day before saying something about Black Friday deals, further down the email was a £5 voucher for online (no min. Spend).

I combined it with a 2 for £15 offer, so managed to get a set of Tomy Hide & Squeak Eggs as well as a chad Valley wooden shape sorter for just £10 for the two. I did fast track delivery to my local store and it was free to collect.

Excellent gifts for my twin baby nephews for Christmas along with a fisher price stacking cup set.

Sorry for spamming the thread a bit this afternoon! Blush

Is it worth me doubling up my points on my nectar card or saving them for next year? I've got 357 points.

Probably best to save them really

RJnomore1 · 16/11/2017 16:33

You need at least 500 to double up I think soub. £5 worth anyway whatever that is.

Jaffalong · 16/11/2017 16:36

The poundshop should have Christmas pudding bin bags

Soubriquet · 16/11/2017 16:39

Do you? Never mind then.
I'll save them for next year

torthecatlady · 16/11/2017 16:41

@Soubriquet Yes I think you do need at least £5 in points to double up.
I guess it's only really worth doing if you need the stuff?
I waited for the double up because I knew dh needed clothes. The Christmas lights we were going to buy anyway if we saw them on offer, so again it was a good deal for us.

Soubriquet · 16/11/2017 16:43

Fair enough. I didn't know this happened. I spent a load not long ago too. Bloody things.

So now I'll save them like crazy and hopefully get some decent amount for next year

torthecatlady · 16/11/2017 16:45

I've found that Sainsbury's are pretty generous with their bonus points coupons when you're checking out, so always worth scanning your nectar card and trying to make use of the vouchers when you can.
I don't regularly shop in Sainsbury's, (I go for reductions and top up shops usually) but still managed to get a decent amount of points.

Downhillatfifty · 16/11/2017 17:10

Just got an email Joules Black Friday event has started, up to 50 per cent off.

Hippobottymus · 16/11/2017 17:10

Saw this in my local Tesco, worth checking yours if you want dobble for a Cars fan!

Did my double up mission yesterday. Saw this leaflet. Looks like you need at least 1000 points which is usually worth £5 but can be doubled to ten

So is the Sainsbury's double up once a year only?
