Thread 19 - loling with our fingerlings

[Reastie]

A rubbish thread title but, well, it's 19 now!

20 days until Christmas, I'm imagining us all wrapping late at night like little festive elves readying ourselves for how excited everyone will be with their bargainous presents.

Any referral links to go on this separate thread please

Primark!!

whoops that's because I missed a letter out!

Superdrug has Zoella bits and bobs reduced, stationery and a make your own neon light thing for £5

I didn’t get my Tatler gift either!

Tatler are clearly complete chancers.

I'm waiting for LOL Pets stock too! Can't bring myself to pay more from amazon fr

Grrr - Amazon are saying tough luck over the Echo reduction. 😣

Does anyone know when M&S reduce their Christmas crackers? The ones I want are £35 and that is just stupid money! I am sure last year they reduced them around this time?

Not sure about M&S crackers but I picked up some really reduced crackers in paperchase last weekend.

Playmobil at that price difference, I'd send it back and reorder!

fire that's what I told them I'd do via live chat... the bloke just said it was procedure to refuse and I could return it I I want. Tbh I don't have the time to but I'm pissed off!

PlaymobilePirate im shocked they didnt refund you the difference - go on chat and complain about the first chat you had....they reduced my 24 quid plug to 9.99 because i couldnt be arsed to send back the dot and reorder with the offer of a plug, the chap i had agreed it would be silly to send back and reorder!!

Does anyone know a way of getting cheaper shipping from USA? I've seen a purse but it's twice the price on shipping...

PlaymobilPirate I had the same problem with Amazon live chat service a couple weeks back. Ended up having to return a messenger bag I bought which was £20 cheaper on Black Friday and then buy a new one. Absolutely insane, but I couldn’t not do it at that price difference! Really disappointed in Amazon

May have just twitched on my first 2018 Christmas gift. Great deal on a Sylvanian Christmas set on Amazon - £15.38 with an additional £6 off promotion at checkout, so purchased for £9.38 total instead of original £18.99 link here - off ends on the 18th December. Currently out of stock, hence me planning on saving it for next year!

And I thought buying Aldi cuddly carrots when I should be sleeping was bonkers you’re doing Christmas 2018.

I used to buy all sorts of stuff in the middle of the night when I was on mat leave! Don't do it so much now as I'm generally asleep all night.

That Sylvanian set is cute, but DD will be 5.6 next year and it may be a bit young for her then!

eitak22 thank you for the suggestions, that buddy box looks absolutely brilliant and I have signed her up. Thanks!

Both my DC have rotten colds, hence the late-night shopping. Up since 6 - going to be a loooong day!

My DD will be just 3 next year, so hopefully perfect for her.

The real problem will be hiding it all year, but not losing it!

Do you remeber that mushroom set that someone suggested as a present for the Italian man who liked cooking? It´s on amazon deal of they day today. 12.99.

Does anyone know anything at all about external hard drives? Not for gaming, more for photo, music, video back up. I've had a look and was thinking a 2tb but would love a recommendation.

Grrr - I'm stuck in an argument with Amazon over this bloody Echo. They're point blank refusing to refund. The price dropped whilst it was still in their possession!
