@Reastie is obviously busy getting her sprouts on, so I've set up a new thread just to keep us moving.

Previous thread here with Reastie's usual helpful posts.

Remember everyone, it's only a bargain if you need it and check it hasn't been cheaper before/isn't cheaper somewhere else! Happy Thanksgiving Xmas Wink

Is there any way to get book tokens at a discount? Prefereably the ones you can use at any book shop but if not Waterstones

GruffaloStick · 22/11/2018 10:20

Thanks Librarymonsterthat's really good of you but I've ordered anyway as there were two left so I got The Twitch thinking they'd be out of stock if I waited

Aworldofmyown · 22/11/2018 10:23

Amazon have a 2 books for £7 offer - I have just bought Wonky Donkey and a Fortnite Gaming book.

Lots of Kevin the Carrots already on Ebay

See I cannot get too worked up about this. Aldi knew they were popular after last year and still they chose to only make a limited amount. If they didn't want them ending up on Ebay then they should have made more available in store and online.

If you still want one keep refreshing the Aldi page they have been coming back into stock all morning. Grin

Does Next do Black Friday discounts?

OldBrownShoe · 22/11/2018 10:30

Just ordered the Jedi robe, chewbacca onesie and a rocky robe too, thanks for the tip!

AlbusPercival · 22/11/2018 10:35

Any suggestions of something bargainius for a 2 year old girl?

Budget £10

SweetPeaPods · 22/11/2018 10:49

AlbusPercival Have you looked on amazon deals? Got play doh etc today.

ShoopShoop · 22/11/2018 10:50

Random question but I'm hoping someone here might know.....when is the new LOL Holiday Bling coming to the UK?

DD is desperate for one but I'm baulking at the idea of paying ridiculous prices to have them shipped from the USA.

RemyRelax · 22/11/2018 10:54

Whittard’s have 20% off their Christmas range for today only

AlexanderHamilton · 22/11/2018 10:54

Get Into London Theatre reduced price tickets go on sale tomorrow to Mastercard holder and on Tuesday to everyone else. In previosu years I've had some great discounts on West End tickets and bought them as presents.

TheGirlWhoLived · 22/11/2018 10:56

Dd is alright, they’ve diagnosed crohns which is annoying for her to live with but somethings better than nothing !! Left at 6am with some buscopan Confused I’m wondering whether to buy dd a Fitbit ace, toying with the god hairdryer, and weighing up the mark hill stuff in boots!

RemyRelax · 22/11/2018 10:56

River Island are giving 20% off everything in basket if you spend £75 or more

gaggiagirl · 22/11/2018 10:57

Ooh Kevin carrot wrapping paper sounds nice! Can anyone remember how much it was?

imsorryiasked · 22/11/2018 11:03

@AlbusPercival the entertainer had snuggle buddies half price? Lots to choose from including unicorns and llamas.
Or Mr/Mrs Potato Head which says age 2+

makingmiracles · 22/11/2018 11:05

@shoopshoop, I heard a rumor that tesco exclusively would be selling them from December, can’t say how reliable the rumor is though!

CoffeeAndEnnui · 22/11/2018 11:08

@Tiggles, thank you SO much for the Jurassic Jim tip. Can't stop finding treasures on his page, amazing stuff, I'm in heaven!

woodwaj · 22/11/2018 11:17

@jammiebammie thank you for the free delivery code! I really didn't want to pay for it.

Maranello · 22/11/2018 11:17

@thaegumathteth and @HoneyDragon - have you had any more luck with Amazon over Harry Potter and the elusive Funko Pop advent calendar (now there's a title)?

Having panicked when Amazon mailed me earlier in the week to say they were out of stock and not sure when/if they could fulfil the order, I bought another one from Warner Bros shop assuming I could just cancel one when the other dispatched.

Guess who woke up this morning to TWO "your order has been dispatched" emails Blush

Not my most bargainous day. I guess I'll be returning one but hoping you've got yours now!

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 22/11/2018 11:17

@Aworldofmyown do you have a link to the fortnite gaming book please.

@Ivegotalovelybunchofcoconuts no next doesn't usually take part in Black Friday. I'm holding off on an order until tomorrow. But I thinks it's likely they will only offer free delivery Sad

I'm still holding out for all the boys I want:
PlayStation 4
Hp sprocket
Mibro robot
Go glow tilt torch

I've also added more to my list
Lego calendars, do we think they will be reduced?
Playmobil calendar (although thanks to a tip on the last thread I will be checking in store at mothercare over the weekend)
Fortnite monopoly

I'm also debating whether to get this for DH on amazon today. Has anyone had one? He's always losing his keys and phone. I must spend hours each year looking for the blasted things. Because of course I know where he's put them Hmm

RemyRelax · 22/11/2018 11:27

Cath Kidston

Up to 40% off

Plus free delivery when spend £25 or more

Discount code: SAVER25

snowmanshoes · 22/11/2018 11:27

Shoopshoop you can get the bling bauble lol doll shipped over from amazon.com for just over £12. If you want more than one buy separately otherwise you’ll pay import fees on two or more. Hope that helps

totallyLosingIt · 22/11/2018 11:27

Just got excited by an email from Woolovers about their 'BIG Black Friday deal', but it's just 20% off site wide. If you're reading this Mr Woolover - that is not a BIG Black Friday deal Angry

RemyRelax · 22/11/2018 11:29

Very have Nintendo Switch console with Pokeman: Let’s go Pikachu & Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for £299.99. Seems good price.

ShoopShoop · 22/11/2018 11:31

@makingmiracles and @snowmanshoes thank you both so much. I'll get one from Amazon US now and then see if I can grab another one if Tesco have them in December.

Thank you!!! 😊
