The Bodyshop have 20% off with code 18074 and free delivery over a £25 spend, it only seems to exclude sale items but there aren't any :/ stock is admittedly a bit limited but I've bought lovely bath sets for a tenner with the discount.

My Melvin is humbled and honored to be in the thread title and she wishes you all a bargainous Christmas.

Home bargains have gingerbread matchsticks for £1

@Courtney555 I can PM
You a website where the fragrances are 80% cheaper than in the shops plus all contain Parfum not EDT

Tesco has chocolate oranges for 75p!

Did anyone want a £10 Boden voucher?

Asda have 20% off kids coats.
I know it's not really Christmassy but still a bargain!

The TREE20 code also still works on the Spode which brings it down to £33 for the set

Yes please @CamdenTownie if you still have it!

@BigmouseLittlehouse STOP IT

@MulberryPeony 😁

I may have just purchased it in addition to the other one. Because you know I need 8 dinner plates

@Jammiebammie my DS would be over the moon with one of those pets.

@BrylcreamBeret he’s huge.

@BigmouseLittlehouse it’s the bowls I really need and I have the candy cane mugs so don’t need the ordinary mugs even if they are cheap and DH has already said no

@MulberryPeony this the danger of this thread! I didn’t need any Christmas dinner sets at all!

@WhereTheresAHill PM'd you

@MulberryPeony it was me looking for the copy and paste Fjallraven Kanken backpacks! Thank you I'll keep that one in mind, it's pretty much the colour dd is after! Much cheaper too

I got a Book People catalogue through the door today and there are quite a few good deals. I love the Usborne sticker books and got some Christmassy ones less than half price 👍

So tempted by the spode set. Arghhhh shall I get it? I really don't need it. Can already see DHs Eye roll when the parcel turns up....

@WhereTheresAHill

@Spam88 Buyagift have a three course meal & glad of wine for two at prezzo for £30 and you can get a £10 off voucher as a new customer.

Hoping someone here will know the answer to my paw patrol quandary! I am looking to get the new mighty pups/super pups lookout tower and super jet. Does anyone know of I’d be better off buying them in the smyths offer or are they likely to be reduced more in Black Friday or another time maybe?

I missed Melvin being mentioned the first time. Good luck hiding him until Christmas!

Fine! Since you all FORCED me .I've bought the Spode set! Happy now?

I'm so excited for it to arrive I can't believe what a fantastic price it is. Free p&p too.

Good spot @BigmouseLittlehouse. I was still dithering. The matching bowls are reduced to 7.50 each on ecookshop.co.uk if people want the bowls as well. Im just going to use the side plates for pud!
