Campus Gifts have at least 20% off everything. They sell loads gifty type things, including Jellycat, Yankee Candle and Ted Baker stuff

Does IWOOT have free postage? Or does anyone have a free postage code?

RickOShay · 21/11/2019 19:44

Just wanted to say thank you @catanddogmake6, always nice to get a recommendation. Saying that at the moment I just want to get her a new attitude Grin

Got an Elemis code , £15 off £50, came with an order, and look fairly general: FORYOU

valid until 31.jan 2020, excludes ultra smart pro-collagen, travel sizes, gift cards, sale items and advent calendar.

Poster asking about smart plugs - ds has one in his room (just random one from Amazon) and I can turn it off using my phone or Alexa.
The Lidl Xbox offer is good but do note it does not have a disc drive so only useful for digital games. I would say my dc uses 50/50 digital and discs.

CupoTeap · 21/11/2019 19:53

Hype. Early Black Friday sale! Get 30% off sitewide,Use code: ‘BFEARLY30’.

Mistressiggi · 21/11/2019 19:55

Oops, I see that Xbox info is already posted.
Some people will buy monthly game passes which will bring the cost of going digital down, but discs can be bought second hand which is a saver - hard to weigh up.

IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile · 21/11/2019 19:58

Phew I found you all!!! I have been on these threads for years but that is the first time I've had a red 'thread closed' message! Oooh the panic Halloween Shock

IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile · 21/11/2019 19:59

Anyway, what I was going to say was...
Definitely recommend the tiny treasure dolls, they even smell like babies. I bought dd the girl/boy pack when they were reduced a while back & she loves them. I even find myself cradling them a little when I'm tidying up, can't quite bring myself to grab them by the legs and lob them in the toy box like I do with her other dolls Grin

Bryna · 21/11/2019 20:02

Does anyone know of a Decathlon code please? I need to get my DD a coat.

VividImagination · 21/11/2019 20:03

Are the Tesco deals just in store or do they have any sort of online ordering. I need an echo dot for ds1 as I already have one for ds 2.

MrsLeclerc · 21/11/2019 20:05

Baylis and Harding bath fizzers reduced in Tesco to £3.50 instead of £7. Offer is on until Xmas eve.

Bryna I've never known decathlon do Codes but they might do a black friday sale if you can hold off a week.

Looking4wards · 21/11/2019 20:07

@Mistressiggi thanks re the smart plugs.
I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for any good offers on them during Black Friday.

Really annoyed - just realised that I didn't remember seeing one of the salt rock hoodies I'd ordered for dh - just managed to log back in only to discover that they had cancelled it several days after I ordered due to a lack of stock Angry - it was a similar colour to the one that ds2 has and as dh gets to do loads of stuff with ds1, ds2 would have been thrilled to have a similar sort of top to dh in the same way that dh and ds1 have rugby tops for the same team. And as they send so many emails through and as I've been busy so only skimmed for important things, completely missed it. Feeling all deflated now as I don't have my bargain fleece (also as it's cold dh wears the ones he has a lot so could do with a new one as the others are beginning to look a bit scruffy so it would have been good to have one for christmas so he could go out and be warm and vaguely respectable!

PSA anyone with HSBC or first direct and a visa card, get yourself signed up to the visa reward scheme. They give you cashback from certain retailers, changes regularly. It's not usually loads but if you were buying from them anyway every little makes a difference!

MrsLeclerc · 21/11/2019 20:11

Anyone shopping for a mobile phone handset without a contract... The Honor 10 has great reviews on Techradar’s site (good independent tech reviews) and is massively reduced on Tesco.

Cheapest is currently £320 on Amazon for the blue or £249 in green but Tesco has it in blue for £209 (plus you earn club card points!) www.tesco.com/phones/products/06901443231546

25% off crew clothing

Thank you for the new thread.
Lakeland code has gone.
Thank you also for the Boden code offers. I'm so very touched by a couple of lovely messages I've had. Looking at you @noseynose and @bikinibottommuffintop!

Christmascookiesmmmm · 21/11/2019 20:27

@Restlessinthenorth I also liked the look of the Mahabis slippers for my DP but decided too pricey, so went with these M&S ones for £17.50 plus a 20% off code, which look a similar style to the mahabis and DP loves them! He’s in his early 30s and is very fussy with footwear and always has to buy himself expensive new trainers each year 😆 so i was surprised he was so into them but literally he’s constantly wearing them and they look really good. Yesterday he took our dog out and had to come back halfway along the street as he realised he was wearing his slippers 😆 www.marksandspencer.com/slip-on-slippers-with-freshfeet/p/clp60191568

Has anyone heard if/when Argos might be doing 3 for 2 on toys? Wondered if they might for Black Friday? Thanks

I twitched!

recklessgran · 21/11/2019 20:36

DGCs have helpfully given me their Christmas lists so now I'm on a mission to save as much as possible on their presents. I'm fine with the girls but hopeless where the lads are concerned.
So, any ideas or tips gratefully received about the following items about which I have absolutely NO clue!
NIKE Airforce 1 essential white trainers Size 9.5 [Adult]
Nerf Gun Fortnite Bazouka rocket launcher.
Sony playstation Dual Shock 4 crystal controller
Should I sit it out for Black Friday do you think or just crack on?
[There are a few other generic bits I'm O.K. with.]
Many thanks, I don't really know what I'd do without you lot.

PinkDaydreams · 21/11/2019 20:38

@tinysnickersaremyfavourite regarding the visa rewards is it on debit cards or just credit cards do you know please?

unkindnessofravens · 21/11/2019 20:49

Themazeoflife oops! Sorry (not sorry!) Grin
