Thanks NoWordForFluffy. I didn't think of looking on their own website!

Buildabear.co.uk have 25%off everything until the 18th with code TAKE25

woolovers have a buy one get one free offer on their 100% cotton men’s jumpers. Obviously nowhere near as amazing as the offer from a few years ago, but still!

Ok I have a weird one. ASOS sent an email saying it’s ovie day (much Googling tells me he’s from love island - I’m out of touch!) anyways.... putting in ‘ovie related words’ takes off different discounts from ASOS. Best I’ve found (after even more googling) is the word RAYMOND takes 17% off. I’ve put in basketball, soko, message and ovie and they all take between 10-14% off. Can anyone think of any other words? Got a feeling there might be a 20% code there somewhere.

Don’t know about anyone else but that message confused me - sorry!

@gaggiagirl you’re welcome, do shop around though in case they’re reduced elsewhere first.

imsorryiasked · 16/09/2019 09:40

Jammiebammie can't get above 14% (with Amber) and I've tried lots of things Blush

recklessgran · 16/09/2019 09:44

@Jammiebammie - have you tried KING - that's what Ovie means apparently.

margaritasbythesea · 16/09/2019 09:45

Sorry build a bear code is SAVE25

Jammiebammie · 16/09/2019 09:46

@imsorryiasked RAYMOND gives 17%

@recklessgran King sadly doesn’t work, good one though, I’m way over invested in this 😂

TheGirlWhoLived · 16/09/2019 09:58

Love, island, India, hat maybe? Or that sleeping hat he wears !?

Whenasuitcasejustwontdo · 16/09/2019 10:10

Re the ASOS code, try Eggs for 18% (I don't know who Ovie is either, I just found it on a reddit thread!)

PiePieChickenPie · 16/09/2019 10:21

Trying to think of Ovie words for ASOS don't have time to check but try India, Amber, CasaAmor, Message, Basketball, Raymond, Hat, Eggs, Wheelbarrow

Ratbagcatbag · 16/09/2019 10:22

Quick question. As I'm now on my way bargain hunting thanks to you all, what is the best app for keeping track of everything?

imsorryiasked · 16/09/2019 10:46

@Ratbagcatbag I use Christmas Gift List which was recommended on here a couple of years ago. It's the one on the left of the photo - red present, yellow ribbon.

@CoffeeAndEnnui If you do decide to get an Amazon fire I would wait until they do their black friday sale as they have always previously reduced the price. I got my OH the Fire 7 for £29.99 and an echo for £54.99 instead of about £80.

TheGirlWhoLived · 16/09/2019 11:01

I just tried UCAMMERCIA (his most recent basketball team) and it’s given me 20% off Grin

tabbycat985 · 16/09/2019 11:02

@QVCismyJam Oh no maybe make sure they haven't sent you a ladies fit by accident?

Does anyone understand Wish? I was trying to buy a few joke presents & a discount code popped up but it's not doing anything? I emptied my cart to try everything individually but still no joy

I just found the same Chilly fakes in B and M that someone else found in Wilkos for £4.99 in case that makes getting them easier for someone

For the poster looking for sketchers - sports direct often have them at a discount so worth looking. X

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 16/09/2019 12:01

30% off at Redbubble with code THIRTY till wednesday

RosieBdy · 16/09/2019 12:03

Lidl had their mini stollen bites in today. Smile
I know that’s not actually a bargain as such, but it made me think of you all!

Snooky17 · 16/09/2019 12:26

Asda have the series 2 Rainbocorns in the toy event, I can’t find it on their website but they were £15 currently £23 in Argos

ScoobySnacker · 16/09/2019 12:31

Body Shop are having a flash 50% event. Included in it is the Vitamin E skincare gift set. I got the set for DD last year and it was lovely

ShoppingBasket · 16/09/2019 12:39

Wheelbarrow for asos apparently

CoffeeAndEnnui · 16/09/2019 12:44

@Nordicwannabe, there are £1 tables in every Flying Tiger store I've been in so far and it was a cashier who told me they're in every store as part of their policy not to be left with excess stock. They're discreet but are papered with pale pink and are usually 3/4s of the way around the shop. Just after the party goods and before or opposite kitchen ceramics. There may be one or two small £1 signs but they're easy to overlook. I'll try to get a pic next time I can get to a branch.

Last week I got a full-sized boxing bag (of all things!) from there. There are crates on the floor in that area which are also included in the clearance. Always worth checking out. I got huge adult Christmas slankets from there this summer too. Look out for a cluster of odd things (odder than usual) grouped together - lots of stationary mixed in with kitchen and bathroom goods etc. all in the same tiered area. Fingers crossed for you!
