@PaddingtonBearHardStare

Oh dear .. and I so thought I'd solved the problem of the missing codes!
My neighbours daughter works for M&S and she told me that this is apparently how it works.
Perhaps call them?

I don't know what I'm going to do with 12 tiny penguins but these just fell into my basket 😊

Saw these spirits reduced in Sainsbury’s today - could be good for presents or for stocking the bar for the festive period!

I really want those penguins for my Xmas cake now BlushGrin

nocutsnobuttsnococonuts · 12/10/2019 22:22

that envelope advent is very cute!! I might get that for dh as he's having a rough time at work at the moment. could fill with scratch cards and snacks!!

jammie I think it was did you manage to find the lol swag omg doll? dd2 has decided she wants a few more bratz dolls after finding a couple in the charity shop so will be sending back the one I bought her! If you are still looking I can send to you for the cost of doll plus postage. (I've got PayPal so all secure!) send me a pm if you would like :)

@coffeetofunction thank you! I'll have a look...

Canklesforankles · 12/10/2019 22:28

Not sure if anyone has posted Iceland’s offer of 20% off from 14th October - 21st for NHS/emergency services/armed forces etc. If you have the freezer space could be useful.

Kate Spade have bags reduced from

CatelynStark · 12/10/2019 23:01

That Kate Spade website says they don’t ship internationally which is a shame.

ADayAlwaysHasToEnd · 12/10/2019 23:04

Asda have their matching Christmas pajsmas in

NoGravyForYou · 12/10/2019 23:18

@CatelynStark I'm not sure if the UK do similar but an post here in ROI gives you a US address for use and then you collect at your local post office.

whatwillicallmyself · 12/10/2019 23:20

@Barbarara thanks for that I had never heard of the Luas one, I must organise something for that too but I have been collecting things for kids do you do a kids one ?

Thanks for the M&S code too I must go look at the christmas pyjamas and duvet covers.

Serin · 12/10/2019 23:37

TKMaxx had gorgeous Emma Bridgewater mugs in today for £12.99.

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 12/10/2019 23:55

@Zillaindie word of warning about the trolley - it doesn't stay upright, which made it pretty useless... DD still liked playing with the broom, but I wish I'd just found a small broom rather than have a useless trolley on the floor... maybe you'll have better luck!

FabulousCandelabra · 13/10/2019 00:06

Apologies if this has already been mentioned but lego Friends Advent calendar is 17.59 on amazon and an absolutely gorgeous Playmobil 9485 Advent Calendar is 16.99

Isadora2007 · 13/10/2019 00:15

Hey fellow Christmas fans. I have a bargain of sorts to share or offer here. I am a student and the cleaner at our library wanted to offload her quota of eco friendly menstrual cups to me as I showed interest in them. She had managed to pass out lots of the sizes that were for women without babies but had struggled to get rid of the final ones for women over 30/post vaginal delivery. So I have managed to gift a few to my friends in return for a small donation to the local foodbank (I offered them the cups but they said no thanks!)
So I have 3 left which would be ideal to include in certain niche eco Xmas baskets or to just share the eco joy... I would like £5 to cover post and a small donation to the local foodbank and they are Time Of The Month cups which sell for £19 each currently. Pm me if you’d like one.

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 13/10/2019 00:21

Ah, how does that old saying go... 'Tis the season to be jolly and share menstrual cup bargains 🎄[santa]
