Tiny me have packs of personalised Christmas sticker labels reduced to £2 here
Postage is £3 but you can buy as many packs as you like at the offer price.
Think it said usually £10 per pack of 24 so 80% off
Have bought name labels for lunchboxes etc in past from them & they are nice quality

@Tentontessie if you want the same effect and don't mind plastic Smith's have thirds

imsorryiasked · 17/10/2019 10:13

SMYTHS have this, not thirds. . .

Tentontessie · 17/10/2019 10:23

Thanks so much @imsorryiasked and @Unihorn these fit the bills perfectly!

imsorryiasked · 17/10/2019 10:30

London zoo have some random things in the sale - lots half price inc flamingo themed stuff, soft toys, baby items, melamine crockery. I'm eyeing up the ladies sloth pyjamas which I really don't need

Sunshine196 · 17/10/2019 10:36

@RunsForGummyBears thank you that aquarium looks fab.
Seen this at Argos which has good reviews. My youngest is being spoilt at Xmas thanks to this thread. I need to stop!

B&M have single Christmas duvet sets and fleece blankets for £5 in various designs. The quality isn't the best but they're cheap and cheerful so good enough! They also have snowing, light-up, musical lanterns for £9.99.

M & S has sent me two more discount codes. 20% off from now until Monday, online only.

Send me a PM if you would like one.

Jennywallpaper · 17/10/2019 10:41

Asda have some of the wooden toys reduced online, including the castle, the kitchen and a train set.

Had a scout round tesco toy sale, would say it very much depends on what you are looking for. Hatchimals, hot wheels, disney dolls, pj masks sets, playmobil police truck, lego olivias cafe and block set half price, mostly lego is just a few pounds off, I would say if you are buying for quite young children and toddlers there is a good enough selection, for older girls lots of samey jewellery kits, big assorted slime/dough kit. Oh and I can't remember what it is but I know it was a very very popular toy, someone was talking about being happy to get it at sainsburys yesterday, its on the half price shelf too 😳
Happy shopping 😀

CatLadyInTraining · 17/10/2019 10:55

Two more M&S codes:
TKHT-WYBN-NUSL-8RN3
TKBN-7EWB-PECG-8REQ

Thank you for the Bomb Cosmetic link - I've bought a couple for presents.

whoknows1230 · 17/10/2019 11:23

@MyIncapableOne, sorry should have tagged you in my thank you post above!

Luxplus · 17/10/2019 11:36

Thanks @RunsForGummyBears that one gift sorted Smile

Acunningruse · 17/10/2019 11:42

Thanks for the anthropologie code, ordered 2 Christmas mugs for work colleagues which look really lovely.

ERest · 17/10/2019 11:45

Has anyone got offer codes for TM Lewin please? Plan to get Mr ERest some.

totallyLosingIt · 17/10/2019 11:48

I've just received a parcel and couldn't think for the life of me what would be inside... edible money of course, thanks to this thread 😅

PinkJam · 17/10/2019 11:49

The Body Shop have you to 50% off until 18th October

PinkDaydreams · 17/10/2019 11:56

I was hoping body shop would release a code that could be used on sale stuff. Last October thanks to this thread I ordered loads from them in the sale then extra discount off too, got some really good bargains!

ERest · 17/10/2019 12:00

I am also after a Zara blazer for sister if anyone has a code please?

EnglishRose1320 · 17/10/2019 12:18

I'm on the hunt for a decent stunt scooter and don't really know where to begin, they seem to vary so much in price. It's for an average sized 9-10 year old. He can already do a few jumps and things on his basic one so needs to be the next step up from your Argos basic type one but beyond that I am lost. Don't want to spend a fortune £50 ish if it's just from us but could go up to £100 if it's a joint present from the grandparents. Thanks

NotPennysBoat · 17/10/2019 12:23

@Sunshine196 thanks for the Crayola drawing deal, ordered one for DD7 as it's right up her street!

EnglishRose1320 · 17/10/2019 12:25

I ordered this throw from eBay, and it's arrived and I'm quite pleased with the quality for the price
