Finally! So if anyone else is wanting a fancy schmancy faux fur stupidly large for a 9 yr old child beanbag then the place to go (very randomly) is S mall world baby shop!

Their big bean bags are £95 which is similar to most other places we’ve found (except for the likes of Cox & Cox etc) but they have 25% off everything for Black Friday. I couldn’t find decent discounts anywhere else so this is a huge saving. They also do free delivery to ALL of the UK - hallelujah, praise the Lord!

If anyone is looking other baby stuff it might be worth a check too - my DC are long past the baby stage so no idea what else they sell but 25% off site wide is pretty good. (Esp when decent BF discounts seem to be a bit sparse on the ground this year.)

@Redwinestillfine Do you still have a Lakeland code? Was it a minimum spend?

How do you PM on the App?

@IJustWantToWearDungarees yes, 32g is more than enough for that. Mine always managed on 16g.
Under 300 is good, I pads are rarely reduced.

Cross posted there with you @MrsCrimbo74. Thanks for the heads up - I have had a quick look at the Robert Dyas ones and I have seen the same ones on another site for about £60 so that’s a really good price! DH is concerned about “small” beanbags - we do want these to last well into their teenage years so have kind of been discounting kid size ones, so I don’t reckon he’d have gone for those ones anyway. (Instead we will just be totally overwhelmed by the enormous balls of fluff we have just purchased!)

Ah thank you @SandraOhshair! I shall go for it. Eeek.

Thanks for the heads up on the bakedin sets got some mug cakes for ds. Disappointed with decathlon Black Friday sale. Still trying to decide between the garmin vivofit or Fitbit ace 2 for ds...

Sorry to be a pan- is anyone able to re-post the whack a mole deal? My phone is playing up, I seem to have lost it

Monopoly Junior board game for £5 on Amazon’s Lightning deals, 70% regular price here

Monsoon 20% off plus EXTRA10

Never mind, found it!

Amazon have 3 months at half price for Prime in the Black Friday deals (presumably for people who haven't already got Prime) so thats 3 months for £11.99 - I ummed and aaad as I have pretty much finished all my Xmas shopping now but its handy to have in case of any last min bargains or panics and the Prime Video and Prime Reading will be nice to have for a couple of months.

Topshop have an extra 10% off on top of the 25% site wide discount using code EXTRA10. Just stocked up on my favourite jeans!

Garden Wildlife Direct has 20% off. We previously bought a bird feeder from them.

You have to spend £30 though.

Ancestry DNA kit is down to £49 if that interests anyone.

For anyone with figure skaters (I know it’s a bit niche!) but Chique Sport are doing 15% off everything.

Lands End 50% off virtually everything that's full price, code automatically added. Got 2 pairs of winter pyjamas for dd and both of us a pair of the sheepskin slippers.
Oddly, there's a couple of full price things only not discounted so be careful- I popped a jumper in my basket and thought "at £60 I wouldn't but at £30 I will" but it stayed at £60 so so popped it out again

Also got 2 Clinique eye sets I stockpile the Quickliners anyway, which are usually about €20 over here and have now got 2 sets each with a quickliner, a mazzie and a cream/cleanser for €35.

Any Jojo Maman Black Friday codes? Or has anyone noticed any bargainous duffle coats for toddlers?

I’ve missed 2 whole threads! 😱
Hope everyone is well.
I spend over 2 hours yesterday trying to check out with cult beauty, managed to get 25% off though so v happy.
Topshop still have 25% off everything too, and student codes work on top.
Adidas/nike good Black Friday deals and extra codes on top (30% for Nike)

DC Shoes have 30% off across the site.

Can someone link the iPad for £289 on amazon please? Can only find the one at 298 unless it was a typo.

If anyone still needs stocking fillers

this is a good little gift

Omg my DD would go nuts over that bean bag! And it's her Christmas and birthday in one. But I have nowhere to put it! Agonising.

How does the amazon deals work? It looks really confusing, you used to be able to see what deals were coming up with a countdown. I'm looking for a switch bundle - preferably Luigi mansion and AirPods, I can't even see any AirPods on amazon!
