Christmas Bargain Prequel Thread

[SideOrderofSprouts]

I’m late this year!!

But here lies the Prequel thread to run until Reastie comes back in the Autumn :)

I'm on the hunt for a watch for a 12 year old girl. Analogue, not digital. Bargain hunters coming across any?

Banana did you get yours from the iPhone App Store? I've looked and looked and can't find it.

I've found something called Gift Plan though - anyone used it? It's for birthdays as well as Christmas so thought might be doubly useful.

InNeed there was some Christmas paper in the John Lewis sale recently but it wasn’t very childish, think it was red with white ‘happy christmas’ Type words all over it

I'm glad the afternoon tea idea is going down well on here. I think I'm just going to do an afternoon tea big enough for everyone at preschool (there's 5-6 of them at most) and they can share it after 'graduation' finishes. I'll do 2 types of homemade jam, lemon curd, scones, cream and a bottle of bubbly. I might just do the same for my daughter's teachers / TAs too. Makes it easier and they can always divvy it up!

Woodwaj, that's understandable re your son's nursery. It's so hard to think of stuff, isn't it?

@InNeedOfALieInNow Studio have some wrapping paper here

@imsorryiasked they had EXACTLY what I needed. Thanks so much

Good call, @imsorryiasked. 3 rolls of 18m wrap en route to me!

I'm on Android, so mine came from the Google Play store. Although it's called Christmas Gift List, I also use it for tracking birthday gifts.

@Becles I'm not sure what a 12 year old girl would like, but John Lewis have some superdry ones half price at £15 here

I’m trying to buy the snowman bedding from asda but although I have it in my basket, when I come to pay it says basket empty I’ve tried so many times.

Only £5, the snowman and snow dog dvd and toy gift set m.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Snowman-and-the-Snowdog-DVD-and-Toy-Gift-DVD-/271967755130

Can anyone recommend where to get nice personalized Christmas stockings please?

Oh my god. My DS utterly ADORES his Snowdog. Everyone with a preschooler should buy that! 😂

I bought stockings from eBay last year, @Smellybears. These ones.

They're nice and big, but probably wouldn't hang well with heavy stuff in. We hang empty but put in the kids' rooms on chairs when full though!

That looks nice, looks traditional too which I prefer

I wanted Scandi-type to go with my tree theme! 🎄

Just a reminder about the Lisa Angel sale, I just bought £164 of gifts for £64... Very satisfying to see the £100 discount in my basket!

playmobil treasure island advent calendar is down to £10 from £17.50 on amazon

I'm not sure if anyone can help, but I am on the hunt for this baby changing bag from h&m. It was on sale at £11.99 and is now out of stock in my nearest H&M and out of stock online.
I'm going to a baby shower in a couple of months and my friend will love it. Plus I can fill it with a few bits and pieces.
Can anyone track it down? I tried Ebay but couldn't see it.

I’ve just gone on the h&m website and it’s in stock

Sorry link before I did wrong! I’m not very good with links!!

@Smellybears Brilliant! I looked last night and it wasn't! Thank you!

@Smellybears are you on private browsing? Things added to Asda basket seems to disappear for some reason when private browsing, usually swapping in to regular browsing solves the problem for me.

Spagfull thank you!
