Thank you @luckiestgirl for the title which came from her post which I’ve copied below

‘I twitched on the moles.
And the Clinique
And at body shop (30% off)
And at love honey (I got £20 off)
And I’ve somehow bought an 8 foot Christmas tree.
And lights
And a TV.
And a fitness tracker.
And stocking fillers for the kids.

Oh god, stop me now please‘

I have teen girls but their male friends and cousins seem to like anything sport related, Nike, Adidas etc.. as well as Hype. I have bought both dd's stuff from the hype sale as they are not really into sports brands.

wineoclockthanks · 09/12/2019 16:36

DS is just 13 and his brand of choice for his birthday was Champion. It's a bit pricey but JD had lots of items in their sale, maybe somethings are left.

AllYouGoodGoodPeople · 09/12/2019 16:41

DS is all about Nicce at the moment. It gives us lots of 'that's a nice top' 'how do you know it's a nice top?' 'it's got Nicce written on it' joke opportunities.

AllYouGoodGoodPeople · 09/12/2019 16:43

And also if you use the Nicce website, add stuff to your basket then wait and they will send you a discount code. And sign up as you get points which are worth money off as well.

Serenity25 · 09/12/2019 16:47

@Jammiebammie have pm’d you a Unidays code for Nike.

Jammiebammie · 09/12/2019 16:54

Thank you very much @Serenity25

Themazeoflife · 09/12/2019 16:59

@thaegumathteth

No to Puma, stick to Adidas and Nike as a safe bet if trainers or tracksuits.

GingerFoxInAT0phat · 09/12/2019 17:04

Ds is 10 and north face is popular around here.

GingerFoxInAT0phat · 09/12/2019 17:05

But I have got a Nike wallet in my amazon basket for him at the moment.

Lilbits has 33% off with code EARLYCHRISTMAS. They have lots of interesting sensory and fidget toys. I've bought rainbow rice from them before, which would perhaps be a weird present but my 2yo loved playing with it.

@Christmastreejoy what type of 3D printer have you got? DS is OBSESSED with 3D printers but I didn’t know you could buy on that actually works

Christmastreejoy · 09/12/2019 19:12

We have an ender 3 pro. About £160. Excellent quality, you need to fiddle occasionally but getting really lovely prints off it

ChristmassySpice · 09/12/2019 19:13

I'd also like to know what 3D printer Christmastreejoy has! and hoping it's not eye wateringly expensive

ChristmassySpice · 09/12/2019 19:14

Ah. Cross posts. Thanks for that. Looks amazing!

Courtney555 · 09/12/2019 19:20

@Christmastreejoy that looks incredible! Do you put cartridges in it or some other substance? How much are the cartridges or equivalent? Do they last long?

£160 seems a bargain!!!

I also thought they were not available for the home.

HelloSweetlings · 09/12/2019 19:20

Those are amazing @Christmastreejoy but not as amazing as your tree in the background, totally apt username 🎄

Can anyone recommend (or warning to avoid) any decent places to order high quality photo prints? I'm weighing up the outrageous cost of buying preschool pictures or paying for the copyrights and ordering myself

lookingforbaubles · 09/12/2019 19:23

photobox are very good !

Cornishqween · 09/12/2019 19:24

If anyone has a boden code I'd be forever grateful Grinmil has just text asking for ideas for gifts for my two dcs and we really don't need anymore plastic junk so hoping she'll get them a nice winter coat each.

Thanks for all the lovely bargains, it's saved my Xmas with dh about to be made redundant Sad I've honestly had so many gifts from this brilliant threadThanks

Christmastreejoy · 09/12/2019 19:28

You buy pla rolls from amazon for £15-18 for a kg. It will print other filaments too but so far we’ve stuck with pla as non toxic.

coffeetofunction · 09/12/2019 19:30

I've totally given up!! I still have presents to buy and I just can't be bothered to keep looking. I wanted to be done by now. People keep asking for gift ideas too. I'd like to just sit and drink bailey's and watch Christmas films till January now please

Christmastreejoy · 09/12/2019 19:30

@HelloSweetlings yeah I love my tree lol

CLS81 · 09/12/2019 19:35

Does anyone know if there is likely to be another M&S 20% off event before Christmas? Stupidly didn't place my order last time!
