Thread 11 - the one with the chocolates

Thought I’d do a ‘how to’ for a couple of things people often post about not being sure of

Second message has a few links and info which I’ll slowly build up, let me k ow if there’s anything you’d like me to add to it

Offer ends tomorrow though and £499 for the 8 is better than the £549 that most places are selling a new 7 for.

Nero Hadn't really thought about refurbished but thanks, will look.

HoneyDragon - that looks good! 7plus is 569 I think so will look at very. I can go to around 600 but just really resent spending that on a phone. I am not big into modern technology so I have never spent anywhere near that on a phone before.

beasyboo that’s good I don’t think they’ve ever discounted the Ace since it was released.

I’m lucky as I’ve been with o2 for a long time so can negotiate hard. Ds really wanted a 7 for his birthday. It worked out less for me to get him the 8 thankfully he was really pleased as he was getting the newer model

Honey That is great. We are all O2 but until very recently we just topped up by voucher. Its only as dd got older and used her phone more that we switched to a contract to get her more data etc. Off to work for a bit now but will check it all out later. Phones are all new to me as I have never really been bothered about them before - always just had a cheap one!

Amazon are doing echo dot for £20, and although I never thought I wanted one, I am
wondering about it now! Is the built in speaker good enough to play music through? So, if I had ours in the kitchen and I wanted it to play music, could I just ask it to? Or would it need a Bluetooth speaker, too?

@reindeerpoop try bedroom athletics for booty slippers I got nice ones there last year

@nicky2512 Boden have 30% off everything at the moment x

I have a code for 15% off at BAM Bamboo clothing - CD43

Disclaimer - I haven't worn anything from there before but have just bought socks for df for Christmas as apparently he loves them! they are definitely not cheap socks though!!

Thanks @MuppysMum found the perfect fox comforter (and ordered 3) and a friend needed a rabbit so that pushed us over the free delivery threshold. Would never have thought to look there so really pleased with a 20% off discount!

Is anyone else feeling underwhelmed so far at the black friday deals? I've not found anything so far that's cheaper than before this week!
Holding out for amazing deals on Friday but I don't think it's going to happen.

Hopefully not linked to accounts..

PREVIEW40 takes 40% off everything included in the urban outfitters preview, they’ve got some lovely gifts in the home section, eg boxed panda mug with biscuit holder reduced from £12 to £7.20. The codes normally stack so you might also be able to get extra 10% off when you join UO rewards.

Don’t suppose anyone has a unidays topshop code?! I will be very very grateful thanks!

@IJustWantToWearDungarees I'd actually recommend the one that is £25 - the sound quality is much better than the £20 one and it looks nicer

I'm after Nintendo 2ds xl if anyone sees one please

Just wondering if anyone can help - I’m looking for some board/card games that can be played with 7 or 8 players. Mainly teenagers and early 20s so can be along the same lines as cards against humanity but also can be like monopoly (which is apparently only a 6 player?!)

nicky check out wowcher for refurbished iPhone deals. We actually got our oldest dc phones on contract this year, sky had the xr cheaper than the 8 for some reason but we didn’t want to buy our youngest a contract so I’ve been considering a refurbished one.

Wowcher have had 7 & 8’s on and off for weeks, so I’m presuming they’ll get more in. Right now they have the 6S from £179.

@Christmascookiesmmm is it just the 10% one? I can dm you one

wheely - Obama Llama

Some good jewellery discounts here www.faithjewellers.co.uk/search/coeur-de I got 25% off a lovely couer de lion geocube necklace for my mum. Pleased as I was bidding on a second hand one for the same price on ebay yesterday but I didn't get it!

@wheelygo that would be amazing yes thank you so much!!!!!

20% off Getting Personal with code BLACK20. Haven’t used them recently but got a personalised whiskey glass for my grandad a couple of years back and it was lovely.

I've treated us to a new tree this year and gone waaay a bit over budget. I told DH that I'd just buy a tree, no decorations needed but now we've got a gorgeous tree I'd quite like some new baubles to put on it! Has anyone seen any bargains in naice Christmas tree baubles anywhere? I feel my expensive tree deserves expensive decs

@wheelygo could you get a nice charm and use it for the extra player in your 6-player games? We've done that before with Monopoly, you just need to give everyone less cash float to begin with!

NotPennysBoat Thank you. Hadn't realised - perfect!
Jammiebammie Thank you. Will check that too.

Some advice please! I need to buy a dolce gusto machine but there’s so many! Which is the best option (for the cheapest price obviously )

Thank you for the This Works... replies! Much appreciated
