Happiness25 if you have a spare M&S code left I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

Perfect dates on your codes because I'm waiting for pay day!

I've been lurking for a few threads now hoping to join in when I have a bargain but no luck yet!

Forgot to say thank you to PaddingtonBearHardStare and whereisthisgoing. X

MrsSopranos · 14/10/2019 16:58

Would anyone happen to have a Vans code per chance? Would so appreciate Smile

PinkDaydreams · 14/10/2019 17:12

£10 to get the ikea Play kitchen delivered. I hate paying delivery but can’t justify a trip there

NoWordForFluffy · 14/10/2019 17:17

Shit. That's bonkers. Talk about rip off.

lifelongfrugaleer · 14/10/2019 17:21

@Luxplus I didn't get the items you recommended which is cool as my DC aren't into it. Hope the scardy cat keyboard warrior doesn't upset you too much.
Or in blunter terms : ignore the twat

Zillaindie · 14/10/2019 17:25

Thank you @sleepismysuperpower1 and @FlowerTink
Some nice bits, I'm nearly finished buying everyone now so going to keep slowly looking up until Christmas so I dont end up spending a ridiculous amount on extras I dont need!

@Luxplus another thank you for the smafolk rec. Got some nice bits for DTs to wear on the Christmas run up. Dont pay any attention to the PM, highly uncalled for.

www.thetoyshop.com/animals/dinosaurs/Awesome-Animals-Large-Dinosaur-Figurine---Tyrannosaurus-Rex-Red/p/533334_Rred for any dinosaur fans, these are half price at the entertainer, only £3.50. There are 4 different ones. I'm collecting mine at weekend on free click and collect

Thepearofwisdom · 14/10/2019 17:34

@Luxplus thanks so much for posting about the Småfolk bag. Mine arrived today 11-12 sized up for my incredibly tall 8 year old! We got:

2 dresses one red with a unicorn print, one pink with white swan print

Leggings with a cat print

A peach skirt which we'll put by for summer.

I think that's amazing value and my daughter loved it all and is wearing the unicorn dress as we speak! It is a little long but that is obvs cos designed for v tall Scandi kids!

LadyNina00 · 14/10/2019 17:39

@Tellmeitsnottrue
Thankyou for the link for the colouring pages. I'm sure they'll come in very handy, especially once the school has broken up. I'll be having a good look later.

MyFriendKimberley · 14/10/2019 17:42

A little off topic (apologies) - has anyone had problems with purchases tracking through TopCashback? Used it for years without any issue but last several purchases haven't tracked at all. Switched from app to desktop site but same problem. Just wondering if it's just me or a wider problem. Thank you in advance.

patm99 · 14/10/2019 17:43

Just got my costco special offers brochure in (Scotland only).
Some things people may be interest in.
A kinder surprise advent calender for £11.98
A KidKraftDisney Ariel Undersea Kingdom Dollhouse 129.89 (this is online only, but includes VAT and delivery
Globber Elite Prime Scooter avaliable in red or lime green and from age 3+ £59.89 includes VAT and delivery

IHeartKingThistle · 14/10/2019 17:44

@MyFriendKimberley I'm having similar issues. I've just recently become a student again and it seems to be the purchases I've used student discount on that aren't tracking. Very annoying.

Happiness25 · 14/10/2019 17:47

My ten single-use M&S codes have all been claimed now.

I’ve benefitted from many posts on this thread, so am pleased to have now contributed a bit with those codes.

Luxplus · 14/10/2019 17:49

Your all so sweet and kind
Thank you all Flowers

SheStoodInTheStorm · 14/10/2019 17:58

As far as I'm aware, Top Cash Back doesn't work if you use codes not approved by then? So if you've had a discount code it invalidates they TCB.

myfavouriterain · 14/10/2019 17:59

Morrisons still had the 2 x 900 piece Lego boxes for £25 today. They had other toy sets too but this one seems the best deal.

Clinique - if you spend over £45 you can get a large set worth £137 for a further £45. There was a £10 off all foundations over the weekend but I didn't check mail in time Sad

ReindeerPoop · 14/10/2019 18:10

Could anyone give me some ideas for a stocking for a 14yo boy please?

EnglishRose1320 · 14/10/2019 18:19

ReindeerPoop

Things that my 14yr old Ds will be getting in his stocking this year.

Glow in the dark stress ball
Bamboo socks
Foldable Waboba frisbee
Some shower bits- something a bit special compared to his usual 99p shower gel
Some funky pens
Paper edible money (he loves it)
Card game
New T shirt linked to an interest of his
Travel mug
Chocolate orange
New book
Joke book

Essentially a few fun bits, fee useful bits and some edible things as well.

MyFriendKimberley · 14/10/2019 18:34

Thank you @IHeartKingThistle and @SheStoodInTheStorm

I don't think I've used unapproved codes but that may be the problem. I'm hoping to get it sorted soon as I need to do some big purchases (white goods) and any cashback would be greatly appreciated.

SkintSanta · 14/10/2019 18:43

@Luxplus honestly some people. Idiots. The Småfolk stuff we got (as you know) was beautiful and enough for me to order a second bag and a very large order of sale items.

What I can say as a tip for people next time, if you want a girl baby bag or a boy baby bag instead of a neutral baby bag, you select a girls bag, and in the drop down for sizes the baby sizes are at the very bottom in cms. I assume the general baby choice is for gender neutral colours.

smartiecake · 14/10/2019 18:47

@Justonedayatatime11 selection boxes are half price in Tesco at the moment, £1.50 instead of 3 quid for a big selection box

MrsReader · 14/10/2019 18:49

Has anyone got a spare m&s code I could have please? I've left it a bit last minute to decide that I want to buy a few dresses for my little girl 😳

Whenasuitcasejustwontdo · 14/10/2019 18:52

@MyFriendKimberley I went through top cashback for adidas, used their approved code but it hasn't registered on my TCB account. Thought I'd done something wrong!

woodwaj · 14/10/2019 19:05

I dont suppose anyone has a code for iwoot?

coffeetofunction · 14/10/2019 19:05
