I can't get the studio code to work - anyone know what might be stopping it?

I've just read my ds letter to santa, not finished and I was told not to look until he had finished but needs must! Anyway he has put Teenage ninja turtles. First he's mentioned them, does anyone know of any bargains? I'm thinking ebay is my friend on this one but thought I'd check with you lovely lot.

@RJnomore1 I can’t belive I managed to miss free Baileys and chocolate reindeer having been on these threads since the beginning! Please enlighten me - are they still available?!?

Ruralretreating · 12/11/2019 01:03

Congratulations @Tigger83, @bikini and @PaddingtonBearHardStare and all others with thread babies recently arrived or due. I’ve been feeling like I must be mad to have DC3 on the way (especially as am currently sitting up looking after a vomiting DS2) but the excitement of the thread babies news is helping!

Ruralretreating · 12/11/2019 01:07

@ToTheRegimentIWishIWasThere thanks for the PJ Mask watches link. DS2 will love one, just not sure which is currently his favourite.

I can’t work out amazon Confused . They have a 2 for £7 book offer atm and included is a book dd wants for Christmas. I’m trying to find a list of all the other children’s books on the offer to buy my second book and have tried 3 times and can’t work out how to do it... I can get a list of all books but I don’t want to browse the adult books in the offer just children’s and I can’t work out how to filter it by type of book. Can anyone help?

@Courtney555 & @dancemom
Woolovers have lots of sheepskin slippers (& gloves etc) which are already quite a good price but WH20 or FROSTY then gives 20% off and free P&P
DBRO has just had a restock of jumpers for his birthday and the lambs wool half zips are lovely

@BadgerFace - Thankyou for the make your own hot chocolate bomb tip! That is genius.

John Adams hot wires electronic builder set down to £31 on Amazon today has been around the £40 mark

ZIGGY911 · 12/11/2019 06:39

I’m looking for a board game for teenagers. I’ve got all the usual ones of monopoly, game of life, scrabble etc as tradition as a new game every year so I’m struggling this year. Any suggestions

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 12/11/2019 06:47

@RagingBall the Studio code was just on the front page before I logged in so not account specific. What's it doing? You need to go to checkout page for it to actually take the money off. There may be T&CS about gaming etc depending on what you are buying

Speaking of Studio for anyone still looking for a kitchen this one has loads of money off and the 009 code seems to work on it as well but a PP was having issues Halloween Confused

@noodledoodler my local home bargains had reusable coffee cups that were £1.79 iirc with funky designs so they don’t look like they were home bargains Wink

linentowel · 12/11/2019 07:03

The big Christmas L’Occitane deal is available on QVC now. On 4 x easy pays of just over £12 too. 3 fragrance choices.

I'm looking for something for my 8month old nephew around the £35 mark (or more in the hope it'll come down in Black Friday!) he's got lots of generic toys as hand me downs from his sister. Any recommendations?

margaritasbythesea · 12/11/2019 07:06

Does anyone remember Selfridges having a 20% off deal last year? I don't know if f I'm just imagining it. I'm wanting it to happen again thus year!

Dolphintrainer · 12/11/2019 07:07

@Reastie try putting “2 for 7 books paperbacks children” in the search bar

allatonce99 · 12/11/2019 07:09

24% off at shop Disney with code TOYTUESDAY

DustOffYourHighestHopes · 12/11/2019 07:10

@ZIGGY911 Magic Maze is really fun and collaborative.

Chocolateteabag · 12/11/2019 07:15

@ZIGGY911 - look at the Big Potato games - we've also really enjoyed one night ultimate werewolf

Just seen Lands End have 30% off their sale prices today

Sizeofalentil · 12/11/2019 07:16

I would love a spare m&s code if there is one please.

My local TKMaxx has a load of Zara home goodies - reed diffusers, homeware, toys, clothes and kids' shoes. Sadly not on line though.

Typo has 30% off their Harry Potter shop and Find Me A Gift are promising a 64% off Black Friday sale

margaritasbythesea · 12/11/2019 07:18

Just read in MSE that Selfridges 20% iff is thought to be around 28th November. Now do need the extortionately expensive orang utan soft toy as much as dd?

imsorryiasked · 12/11/2019 07:18

@Reastie this will hopefully give you them..
If not then search 2 for 7 childrens book, select one of them and then click on "see other items in promotion" and it should just give you the children's books rather than all if the books.

RagingBall · 12/11/2019 07:22

Hi Paddington- hmm, very odd. It's not on the front page when I look this morning and at checkout it was just telling me that I didn't qualify to use this code.

Would be interested to hear how anyone else gets on.

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 12/11/2019 07:23

Oh that's odd according to the T&Cs the Studio offer has finished but I used it last night and it's still working for me today Halloween Hmm
