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 :)

If you spend £20 with MAC online you can get a free full-size lipstick - I think today only. It is a choice between a very hot pink and a more subtle glossier pink. Delivery is free over £20 too. I have gifted MAC lip glosses in the past and they're always well received.

Brown Rocketdog boots £19.99 on Amazon - also 20% discounts on some Lego Creative boxes like this one. I thought this Amazon add-on diecast Lightning McQueen was decent value at £5 too.

Thanks for the Lottie doll info. Just got a doll and the tree house which is half price at £29.99 for £29ish, would have been less had I not been so excited at the bargain that I forgot to put in my £5 voucher code

Going to admit to spotting this on HUKD - but there's another great Tesco sharpie offer on the go

It's instore too apparently

Thanks so much for this thread going to try to be on top of things this year

I am looking for a wooden advent calendar which has little ornaments rather than the ones where you need to add sweets/small treats.

I got one like this in Costco a few years ago for my niece but would ideally like a different one for my nephew. All the ones I have found are for adding stuff yourself.

Or my other idea is to buy a a wooden one and add little hanging ornaments myself but not sure where would be best to buy these.

Any idea would be very grateful.

Thanks

We've got this one

It's magnetic and you add a bauble every day

For book lovers or writers literary gifts

Same site, might be a slightly unusual gift for a dog lover

And these Roald Dahl Matilda cushions are lovely

Anyone doing advent calendars for tween/teen girls, Argos have got 24 nail varnishes for £6.

They've also got hair chalks half price at £4.99. (right link here)

Argh! Sorry. Nail varnishes DCat keeps stomping on me as I'm typing!

Amazon have the Crayola Advent Calendar at £16.95. Not the cheapest, but having googled the rrp was £46! Very good reviews for the contents - a different craft activity every day.
There is also the Ravensburger Calendar which looks OK and is cheaper at £6.76.
And the Bright Lights Beauty calendar for £10.81

Alana I love that literary gift site!

Asda have bowls, plates and cups for 25p each. Paw patrol, blaze, Thomas tank and a girly one but can’t remember. They also have snack pots for 75p. I’ve put some away for birthdays next year 😊

Reastie, you might like present indicative too. Not a lot in the clearance section at the moment sadly.

Just ordered a knex trill ride ferris wheel for £13 (reduced from £34.99) on amazon for my DS8 - happy days!

I got a 20% off loccitane code that I'm not going to use if anyone wants it

No bargains that I can find (unfortunately!) but heads up that Harry Potter lego sets are released today. Apparently the most popular sets are forecast to sell out within a week (?!) so if you have Harry Potter mad DC it might be worth buying early to spread the financial pain out and spare the inevitable pre-Christmas angst about getting hold of sold out items.

RoI one: Golden discs on Henry street have 10 for €10 on dvds, games, cds, posters. Older stuff obviously but might be nice for stocking fillers, or movie hampers.

monster high playset £27 down to £6.67
