😩 help! I’m on the hunt for leather/leatherette placemats with either a beach scene or beach huts on (preferably beach huts!). I can’t find leatherette ones anywhere! Any help would be so appreciated!

Thanks Trixy Malixy I have looked but a lot of its clothes in that price range and have no clue what size. However with Elphaba’s idea of the hygge band and which Id already ordered for DDs with some spare, I could put a sweaty Betty voucher with it.

The QVC Tili glow jetters beauty box is £12 for 10 items. There are some nice items in here and what you see is what you get. NO subscription needed. I also used a code of FIVE4U for new qvc customers who spend over £20 to get 2 sets for £19.

This thread is just fabulous. It has sorted nearly all my shopping. Although DH only outsources because he thinks I’m good due to everyone else’s wonderful suggestions.

Thanks Renarde

I'm really nervous about the birchboxes not arriving in time and/or being shit. So I'm having a look for other beauty boxes or makeup deals that I could use for presents for DNeice. Anyone got any recommendations? Needs to be suitable for a 15 year old (no anti aging products lol)

Thank you for recommending RedBubble . I’ve never heard of it before, lots and lots of suitable gifts for my 13 year old daughter.

Morrisons have 3 new release dvds/cds for £20. I got mamma Mia , Peter rabbit and Fleetwood mac. That's my sister, dh, and me sorted ( in no particular order)

@NotReve Great tip on the scratch off card, perfect for my dh who has a season ticket for his present (which won't be sent until feb). And I found it for half the price on Amazon!

KISSANDMAKEUP gets 15% off a make your own box at www.lookfantastic.com

I don't know whether you'll automatically be subscribed to their service if you order it - do check carefully

Don't forget that Tesco's offer of 25% off 6 or more bottles ends tonight. I couldn't make it work online but it worked in store.

I did a trawl of online reviews of bottles around 7-8 quid in the Finest ranfe and things I have read about as recommended are the
Fuzzies
Finest Vintage Cava.
Blanquette de Limou
Reds
Rioja Viña del cura Gran Reserva
Finest Medoc
Finest St Chinian
Finest Minervois de Liviniere
Whites
Finest Passerina
Finest Torontes
Tim Adams Clarke Valley Reisling
Tesco Finest Falanghina
Tesco Finest Greco Igt Beneventano

It took me ages to do it so thought someone else might benefit from it for a quick shop!

Fizzies not Fuzzies

and range not ranfe.

I haven't tried them yet BTW, but they got great reviews.

thanks but I cannot see the make your own box option anywhere?

Duplo Town Toy Truck and Tracked Excavator lowest ever price £12.47 according to camel camel camel here

Oops I just posted a Christmas bargain on a thread in aibu about brideszillas
Anyway, I bought a few things from this lady at a comic con so can vouch for quality. She does geeky things like wallets, hair bands,
Notebooks etc and in themes like Pokemon, stranger things, gaming and my little pony. She has 35% off today with code HAPPYBIRTHDAY

@IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece
Not quite the right picture but there are these on eBay. Description says they are leather. They might perhaps be able to do a beach hut set?
Otherwise there are some on Noths which have an engraved line design so may be able to get them personalised to a beach motif?
Assume it's essential they're leather?

Shameless placemarking.

I managed to get three advent calendars each for half price on Saturday. At a little independent shop. Went in for something else on Sunday and they were back to full price. Lego City, Star Ward Lego and Playmobil Santa's Workshop. I was very pleased with myself

Thanks floorboard the QVC beauty box looks like a good back up present - I can think of lots of people I could give it to, and if not I will use it myself!

Not so much a present bargain, but Iceland are doing 3x party food, 2x party platters, crisps and soft drink for £15. Might be useful for somebody having a festive gathering!

Looking for very bargainous gifts for a 5 year old girl and 8 year old boy. No ideas what they are into as they are friends of the DC and my DC don't know anything about their friends. £5 each ISH. Thanks in advance.

Have I missed the boat with discount codes for Lottie dolls??! Never heard of these dolls until these threads and I'm now hooked, and want them all! ( For the 4 year old of course, not me ) I'd be really grateful if anyone could let me know of any codes please.

Thanks also to the poster who posted about the scratch card gift reveal, I've ordered one for Dh surprise week away, will look a bit better than my collection of print outs of flights and hotel confirmation etc!!

Free sizeable box of chocolates when you spend £35 at Thorntons. You’d just have to decide whether they are for you or somebody else!
