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

To do click links you do this put link in here then a space then the name or phrase you want to go with the link . Don’t put a space between the start of the link and the and then last word and the like I have or it won’t work but I had to to demonstrate.

To follow the thread without using up a post to mark place you can click on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first post.

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 [thanks

What I missed drumming? My Elemis arrived too. X3 all in gift boxes chuffed to bits. Taking samples out and putting into one box. Hmmm may keep a hand wash myself !
Been sorting out the present Stash - so much from this thread !

wencheleda here is the very offer code.

Re the elemis offer I've no idea how i managed to get the gift wrap option at checkout as it wouldn't appear again when I did a second order the next day on a diff email. Nor did it appear when I did an order on black Friday without the code. It's not the end of the world although it would have been nice.

drumming just do the order with the code. Once the order has gone through your account will show ie £75 spend then 30 deducted straight away so your balance left to pay will be £45. As it's a credit order you're not paying out £75 straightaway so to speak - hope that makes sense.

Elphaba17 · 04/12/2018 17:04

Though you can then pay off your balance in full by card right after as long as your initial order is to your credit account.

Wenchelda · 04/12/2018 17:13

@Elphaba17 and @Rockhopper81 that is an excellent suggestion - thank you 

beadyboo · 04/12/2018 17:37

Are there any M&S codes left out there? DSis has requested replacement slippers and I’m almost conditioned not to pay full price now after following this thread!! My sparks card has 20% off kids slippers but not adults!

These gin making kits are still only £7.98 I bought a few for presents for friends.

SleeptightDaisy · 04/12/2018 18:36

Sandy leaf farm do free delivery on those gin making kits plus their others if you don't qualify on Amazon.

ritzbiscuits · 04/12/2018 18:54

@beadyboo I don't think so, I'm holding off buying a new duvet now until I get another code.

I think the 20% off codes were the week before Black Friday (same as last year). There is always a chance they could drop in a promo if their trading isn't where they want it to be, but they may just hold out now until New Year.

Turns out I do need the laser need guns (cheers Scof!) for my nephews and they are now £34.99 on Amazon - sure they were about £10 cheaper before? Has anyone seen them anywhere for less than £30? Or do I wait it out for Amazon to hopefully drop again? Thanks

Casablanca78 · 04/12/2018 19:22

Nerf guns even!

eastmidswarwicknightnanny · 04/12/2018 19:24

Think I missed the elemis offer - too late???

fairiesandelves · 04/12/2018 19:34

No not late for Elemis ! Just placed another order !!!

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 04/12/2018 19:34

We've just drawn our family bran tub and I would love any ideas please. Our budget is £20, I have
My Granda who has very far along dementia
My cousin who is severely autistic and non verbal and my Auntie who I am thinking about something Bee related for because that's what we call her or maybe something for her house as she's just separated

fairiesandelves · 04/12/2018 19:36

Xmas10 gives you £10 off with no minimum spend. Hand washes out of stock now but body balm / shower gel etc working out about £12 delivered in a nice box with tissue and you get to choose free travel size sample. Thanks to a fab poster from the weekend whose name escapes me

imsorryiasked · 04/12/2018 19:41

Several threads ago someone was looking for Bambi stuff. Kath Kidston has but two get one free

imsorryiasked · 04/12/2018 19:57

Hope no one minds but saw this online and thought it was a good thing to share as so many of us have managed to get good lego deals: lego build to give charity just share a photo online or in-store of a lego Xmas ornament that you've made. In exchange they will give a lego set to one of these children's charities

sunshineNdaisies · 04/12/2018 19:58

any discounts or deals on board games? DD has asked for some.

Also any wine deals that don't involve subscriptions?

I twitched on Elemis!

ecofreckle · 04/12/2018 19:59

Last couple of gifts to get now. MIL wants a full length dressing gown. Any bargains to be had at all that anyone knows of please?

I also have two children left. 5 and 7 years old. Boys if that makes a difference. I know one is into transformers/dinosaurs. £20 budget for each but generally try and make that look great. I am hoping this challenge might help some of you twitchers: you can put your focus on my real buying challenge instead of your imaginary one Grin

With all your help and bargains I have nearly ploughed through my ridiculous 55 person long list (I know the madness must stop and I have great intentions for next year) Flowers

eastmidswarwicknightnanny · 04/12/2018 20:11

@fairies what is the elemis offer along can find is a travelsize freebie with each order?

fairiesandelves · 04/12/2018 20:13

Re Elemis Add xmas10 into discount code box

YahBasic · 04/12/2018 20:23

Fueled - I got a gorgeous bee print from Die Monde called Beetopia. Think they have the small version on notonthehighstreet for £15 and you could get a frame at Wilkos for a fiver?

PunkAssMoFo · 04/12/2018 20:26

I’m loving of the Elemis deal so much that I’m thinking of buying another and putting it up for end of year teacher gifts Blush. Will it keep unity July?

fairiesandelves · 04/12/2018 20:28

I would punk great idea.

NewDayBlankPage · 04/12/2018 20:30

Can someone help please? My dh has asked for a speaker so he can play music out of his phone. I’m an absolute technophobe and have no idea what would be a decent speaker. Budget around £50 (would that even get me anything??)
