I use the "this works" pillow spray. I've always found it cheaper to buy from an online beauty place. I think I ordered from feel unique or something like that last time.
Depends a bit what size you are after though.

Anyone looking for tablets? The samsung tab a, 32GB is on offer at currys. £149 with a case and antivirus. Tablet is £159 in most places and the case is a decent one usually around £25 so I'm happy.

Won't end up using the antivirus ourselves, but was advised by the shop assistant to stick in on ebay as apparently they sell well.

Was looking for a deal on a kenwood chef blender, didn't want to spend much as I suspect it may end up in the back of a cupboard. However, got one from freecyle, hard to beat free

Argos have this infinite journey set down to 7.99

Do you think we are expecting any bigger deals generally on Friday or is Black Friday a week long situation now?

Yes msmiawallsce they sold out quick last year. I got two. And I saw them on eBay later that day at ridiculous prices !
Anyone got an Iceland orang utan? They're £5 and lovely quality and great cause. Got one for my DGS and again they're on eBay now for £22!!

Thegiftandgadgetstore.com have a flash sale on Wilkinson sword razors at 99p each. Add 5 to basket and it automatically deducts £50 with 1.99 delivery you get 5 razors for 6.95. Just ordered...site gets good reviews. Great stocking fillers for men new.thegiftandgadgetstore.com/product/wilkinson-sword-hydro-5-transformers-razor/

Elpheba Jellycat has 20% off at Campus Gifts

I've used them this week to buy a baby soother/comforter for a friends dc. Look in their CLEARANCE section under JellyCat its got 35% off cant remember price sorry and Im rushing to go out so havent got time to check or they have others in the Jellycat section. Think Black Friday has also got a deal on re; delivery. Hv used this site before and they were good. HTH

Re..Wilkinson sword. You don't have to get 5 (I thought you did and glad I did anyway) but you can just buy 1 (max 5) discount is automatic.

I'm so frustrated with myself. I thought I'd bought the Scotland Yard game yesterday, but it turns out I'd only put it in my Amazon basket and I didn't actually check it out. It's now gone up to £20...

Aldi has their ski sale starting on Sunday. The thermals etc are brilliant for any cold weather / outdoor activities. My
dc wore theirs loads last year, not just for skiing. The quality seems really good too.

BLACKJACK code gets £5 off orders on Jack Wills free delivery if click and collect is chosen. Some nice stocking filler bits

Has anyone bought from giftandgadget store? Only two trustpilot reviews which aren’t good

Clintons has online exclusive Black Friday spend & save

10% off when spend £15
20% off when spend £30
25% off when spend £40

Discount applies automatically at checkout

I went to check out m&s jumper offer at the original factory shop. 2 for £10. Mostly large and XL sizes. Various colours. But, the labels are cut out so not a great gift.

LOL surprise biggie pet now down to £27 at Asda

I’m looking for ghd original straighteners bargins please!

The pink scruf-a-luv is down to £16 on Debenhams.

Can anyone recommend some nice (not Nanna 👵🏻 style) boot slippers with a rubber sole?

Ollie & Nic have got 50% at the moment, plus you can get an extra 10% off if you are a new customer

I’m losing it with Amazon. I usually spend a bomb with them this week but I’m so posses if with them.
Within an hour I got one email about dds advent calendar saying it’s outvofvstock and another saying it will be with me on Monday!

I’ve sent screen shots. I was really hoping they’d reduce the occulus rift to a more affordable price on Friday so we could possibly justify buying it outright for ds rather than giving him money toward it. But tbh; I don’t trust as far as I can throw them at present.

Just checking again - does anyone have any idea about a cheaper I phone 7 plus or do I just have to grit my teeth and pay the full amount!!

I would also really love a 10 pound off 30 for Boden if there is one spare! I want to buy my mum a top.

Thank you.

@ReindeerPoop Next usually have some nice ones in. I’ve had a few from there and they wash really well too.

Desperately hoping that Emma Bridgewater will do a discount on the non-personalised mugs this week. Not sure if their current 'Black Friday deals' are the best we can hope for

wellfuckme 30% off at ghd website

Nicky unless you go for a refurbished one in somewhere like CEX

Nicky what’s the cheapest you’ve found so far?

Personally I think the Very offer on the IPhone 8 at £599 and then £100 credit back is an excellent deal .... and obviously will be a longer term investment in term of software updates.

It really does depend on your budget though.
