I haven't used them before but I've just ordered some petite woodwick candles as part of a housewarming gift. They're tiny but I think they burn for 8 hours and I love the scents. They're £3.99 each and buy 2 get 2 free.

Looking for a nice but cheaper cocktail shaker kit to go with the craft gin subscription

thaegumathteth · 14/10/2019 00:05

@SleeptightDaisy amazon have a few from about £10? Some have decent reviews

thaegumathteth · 14/10/2019 01:53

@Reluctantbettlynch thanks so much for the YOURS code! Just saved myself £30 on stuff I was buying anyways!

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 14/10/2019 04:51

@Kutsy I seem to be getting regular emails from them with offers which I immediately delete so I aren't tempted but will look at the next one. I just recovered the most recent from my deleted items but it's expired

Nordicwannabe · 14/10/2019 07:09

Thank you Naradeer for telling us about the Yumi sale. There are some great reductions on there (eg lovely kids dresses for £12, pretty cardis for £9), as well as lesser reductions on Christmas jumpers. And I found an extra 15% discount which even works on sale items: BASKET15

WhereIsThisGoing · 14/10/2019 07:11

@Kutsy I think HAPPY still works for 50% off, but haven't tried

SandraOhshair · 14/10/2019 07:12

I couldn't get the Adidas extra20 code to work, so I googled and picked up a 25% off family & friends codes via the Metro for an additional 20% off the original 50% sale price. The link generates a one time use code.

SandraOhshair · 14/10/2019 07:12

25% off not 20!

Nordicwannabe · 14/10/2019 07:18

Joules just sent me a 10% additional discount code for their sale which ends midnight: EXTRA10

IKEA duktig family price doesn’t seem to have gone live as yet Hmm

PinkDaydreams · 14/10/2019 07:24

That’s the duktig kitchen I mean sorry!

Barbarara · 14/10/2019 07:27

Last day for 20% M&S in Ireland with code YESPLEASE

NoWordForFluffy · 14/10/2019 07:28

Thanks for the sainsburys date - looking if I can team it with money off vouchers I have - got to buy myself a Xmas tee shirt and dd winter pjs, snap bracelet and purse. Plus dh needs work shirts.
I’m also looking for recommendations for a home brewing starter set - lots of choice around £30 on amazon but I’d love a personal recommendation.
Also struggling with camelcamelcamel atm - keeps giving us site.
Looking for good price on Harry Potter lego beauxbatons carriage

Seen orchard toys match and spell game for £5.81 and I’m happy with that so that’s off my list this morning

Whatsername7 · 14/10/2019 08:19

Very excited about Sainsburys! Dd1 is so nearly done!

PinkDaydreams · 14/10/2019 08:26

@NoWordForFluffy I’m logged in, doesn’t show up the price. I’ve added it to my basket anyway and it’s come off there! Grin thank you!

PinkDaydreams · 14/10/2019 08:28

Does anyone know the best place to buy orchard games please? I’m looking for the post box game at a bargain price

Reluctantbettlynch · 14/10/2019 08:29

@thaegumathteth you're welcome! I'm glad it helped someone.

NoWordForFluffy · 14/10/2019 08:36

@PinkDaydreams, I got some great-priced Orchard games from Amazon. And Sainsbury's might have them in the sale too (I don't have a big Sainsbury's near me, so we don't get great toy deals. We go to Rice Lane if we want that kind of thing!).

I'm glad you got the kitchen. Xmas Grin

PinkDaydreams · 14/10/2019 08:43

@NoWordForFluffy I hadn’t thought of sainsburys, thank you! I regularly walk to the new one on Jennifer Avenue So will take a look next time I’m in there

NoWordForFluffy · 14/10/2019 08:49

I think someone said the sale starts on Weds. helpful to have one in walking distance!

We're meant to be getting a massive one, which they closed Homebase for 2 bloody years ago. No sign of anything happening yet though.

Whatsername7 · 14/10/2019 08:57

Ive checked online and Sainsbury's have 2 lovely outfits that I know dd1 will love. Shes a fussy moo but they are right up her street. One will be her Christmas day outfit from Santa. The other will be her fancy outfit to wear for Cirque du Soleil (her main present). Do you think I should stay up until midnight on the 21st to ensure I get them before they go put of stock? Or does that make me a crazy person?

flooredbored · 14/10/2019 09:02

Has anyone seen any bargain garden water features?

Yeknom · 14/10/2019 09:09

@Wait4nothing I got my dad a brew kit from Wilkinson's a couple of years ago and it went down very well indeed
