Anyone got any vouchers or codes for Lakeland? I've been looking at nativity sets and just fallen head over heels for this nativity advent calendar: Link to Lakeland nativity on Amazon

Do any of you have this already, is it as nice as it looks? It's expensive tbh but I could really see my kids loving it forever.

@SayNoToCarrots your train looks almost identical. I can't see any difference to be honest.

I picked up Lego friend's Emma trinket box for £3.98 in-store at asda

cailingaelach · 05/10/2019 11:59

@TheHammaconda thank you! I'm going to head over to the referral thread..think it might be a gift for me though:)

BernardBlacksWineIceLolly · 05/10/2019 12:00

just had a camel camel camel alert for the playmobil mission rocket launch

current £36.99, average price is £45.59 (lowest was £36.97, so this is a best price near as dammit)

snapped it up for DS2

MrsLem · 05/10/2019 12:23

@cakegoblin if you've got a Santa see account you can get 7% cash back by activating the offer on the app.

I haven't got one but I've read threads about them on here if you search for them. I think they've been hard to track down before

MorbidMuch · 05/10/2019 12:26

Those of you on O2, on the O2 Priorities app they have a make up offer on at the moment for ‘Lottie London’ Halloween set (Witch, Please) with a code to get the £32 set for around £8. Think the offer is on until 27th Oct My order came today and it looks really decent and could definitely be used for Christmas / stocking fillers as it's sparkly with stars rather than spooky looking.

Also, the Cancer Research shop has lots of Christmas duvet cover & blanket sets in for £3-£8.

@QueefLatifah was the yesbebe site the right one?

I like the look of them but always begrudge paying £3 delivery when they're only £3 per toy lol.

Would like one or two wooden figures for my DS stocking

FilthyforFirth · 05/10/2019 12:34

Just back from the Entertainer. Got some good bargains! A Toy Story 4, 3 games in 1 (ludo style, dominos and a puzzle) for a fiver. Set of paints for £6 for my craft loving neice and a snakes and ladders game for a fiver. All 50% off. They had loads in there! I am most pleased with the Toy Story one. You could easily split them up to give as 3 separate presents. So 3 people for a fiver!

margaritasbythesea · 05/10/2019 12:49

Thanks HelloSweetings I shall have a look and see if they deliver to me (rural Wales).

Ftumch sorry I overlooked your post before. Im sure I have had them on amazon deals for about £12.99 several times. If i were you I would set up camel camel camel alerts for the ones you're interested in. Most usual ones are the rabbits i think

Trumpton · 05/10/2019 12:52

For those who like personalised labels . I bought the Nutella ones from eBay a few years ago and put them on my own jars .
This year I went to social.marmite.co.uk/ and I put the girls names and took a screen shot.
Played about on pic collage and printed my own and stuck them on marmite jars !

Bugger Ocado don't deliver to me. It is a great price for the Sylvanian Bakery that HelloSweetings posted.

cakegoblin · 05/10/2019 12:57

This advent tree is gorgeous. We got it last year ( paid about £11) and thought that was well worth it. Just seen it on Amazon for £3.97 and 50p delivery! link

Another thanks to @redwinestillfine for the above as we got one of those little trees a few years ago and I have been looking for them as gifts ever since! my two love decorating it each year.

Whitecandle · 05/10/2019 12:57

@Redwinestillfine what makes it an advent tree?🙈 I thought it would be instead of an advent calendar? Or am I missing something?🙈

cakegoblin · 05/10/2019 13:07

I think it's just an xmas decoration really @whitecandle (unless I'm missing something as well) but it is cute and popular in our house

onedayatatime73 · 05/10/2019 13:19

Has anyone been able to make the hygge code work? It keeps saying not valid for the items?

eastmidswarwicknightnanny · 05/10/2019 13:26

@QueefLatifah wooden animals www.littlefootprint.co.uk and knitted animals www.tiarosetreasures.co.uk

Both have a loyalty point scheme tip for Tia rose sign up before purchase aa you get bonus points you can use off 1st purchase

Both are free delivery

cailingaelach · 05/10/2019 13:28

The Hygge code worked for me, I added 5 to basket and paid for one. I only had bands though, a mix of kids and adults..don't know if it applies to the beanies.

SheStoodInTheStorm · 05/10/2019 13:34

Can anyone here help with ideas for a 12 year old girl? Birthday and Christmas close together and I am struggling!
