Thread 18 - Remember, it's only a bargain if you need it or will use it, otherwise it's still a waste of money

[Reastie]

Welcome one and all, see post two for links.

Any referral links to go on this separate thread please

Foddy thank you for the mention of those books at Aldi, I'd been looking at those on Amazon and other places

RJnomore1, as mentioned on another post, urban decay have 30% off some naked palettes with code GETNAKED which brings them down to less than £30 delivered. A lot of 15 years love this brand but it does seem a lot of money to spend on just eyeshadow. The kit you have seen looks good and it’s a decent brand.

Just want to say a thank you to the person who mentioned an Argos £5 voucher in emails - checked on the off chance and I had one too so managed to get Lego friends chalet for £25 which isn't quite as good as it was on amazon a few weeks ago (£23) but good enough for me! So thank you very much!!

Thanks for your lala info x

Photo websites seem to have some decent deals for cyber Monday. I'm looking for a personalised calendar and vistaprint doing them for about £6, snapfish slightly cheaper at £5 for the A4 classic (70% off) but personally I preferred layout of the vistaprint one. Worth a look if you're after something along those lines.

I have another Argos voucher, £5 off £40 spend - I won’t use it so please pm me if you want it- single use

Also chickenpie I think book people use hermes too?

Placemarking! Love these threads

WoahBodyForrrrrrm I'm also still waiting for my woolOvers order. I ordered on the 18th.

I did mean to send an email to chase up but I actually forgot about it until I read your post!

Argos code has gone

Found you all! I went away for a few days and missed almost an entire thread

This is a bit random, but I have just decided to return a bargain Lego Minecraft set I bought a few weeks back. However, as it's now out of stock and £££ everywhere, before I return it to Amazon, would it help anyone out to buy it from me at the price I paid plus postage? It's set 21133 The Witch Hut and I paid £36.33. I haven't weighed or measured it yet, but I think second class recorded will be around £3.90 (or collection from south Norfolk).

I need to start the Amazon returns process tomorrow, so PM me before midday tomorrow if you want it.

spelling I think it kind of depends on what technology you already have.. so if you have amazon prime then it makes sense to get the echo but as we didn't, and play everything through Spotify and all TV through chrome cast and use nest and there was no way I was going to let the DCs have half a chance of ordering anything through the echo! so we went for google home and it works brilliantly.

I'm really impressed, there's no faffing around getting apps like with the echo and the google search is amazing and you don't need to say things as precisely as you need to with the echo. Sending me slightly crazy having all DC shouting at it to play YouTube videos the whole time though! and I'm not at all freaked out that google are probably listening to my every word

Thanks Blu123

1clickPrint are fab value, canvasses start at £2.79 for A4 size although I've previously ordered up to A1 size and they've all been fantastic quality

I also have a £5 off £40 spend argos code available, pm me if it would help.

Can anyone help me getting the gap code to work, I put it in at the checkout but it’s doesnt take 50% off, it is off a full priced item so not sure where I am going wrong. Anyone else had issues with it?

Checking in

Thank you yellowsun and endoftheworld - you have given us something to think about with regard to getting an Echo or Google Home 🤔

Hi all, I’m in need of some Play-Doh advice. My inclination to make homemade isn’t there & DS is 18 months but is playing with play dough a lot at nursery so I’m looking for a starter set to try at home.

I’ve missed the Play-Doh workshop toolbox at Argos which is currently half price at £4.99 & looks as though it would have been ideal. Is there anything similar you’d recommend?

Anyone got any ideas of what to get my MIL? She likes Art Deco...

Another one with an Argos £5 off I won’t use, if anyone is still in need let me know

Thanks for the thread!!

My sister has requested a set of 3 Alex and Ani bangles. I seem to remember a post about Alex and Ani a few threads back. Anyway remember??

I was completely done (and overspent) on DD but she’s done her santa list and asked for pj masks toys and magiki ponies. Fucking YouTube!!
Anyone know any bargains? She mentioned the pj masks control centre but that looks very similar to her unplayed with paw patrol lookout tower!

Ekk! Need something for nephew that I will see this weekend, have amazon prime if that helps. He's 5 and likes all the branded stuff e.g. Superheros/ paw patrol but just as happy to vary things. Max budget £30 but ideally less. Help!

Amazon have done that “tried to deliver but you weren’t in” bullshit AGAIN

I guess when they struggle to deliver and you’ve paid for Prime they have to lie and pretend they’ve tried. When they clearly haven’t as I’ve been in all day.

I’ve told them what I think of them.
