I have ordered at yoursurprice before and been very pleased with the quality

Think it was someone on here who recommended Anker power banks - got one for my mum, am testing it out now and it looks really good. Thanks.

Thank you @thaegumathteth

@NaturalBlondeYeahRight hope you're out soon and @EvilHerbivore I've just had a scan and they've found a 2cm long gallstone - I've been having inconsolable pain at night but I eat really healthy and don't have meat or dairy which is strange. Did you get offered any medication to try to reduce the stones or was it straight to surgery?

Thank you @Youhavewonaprize

If it’s the Jeffree Starr Shane Dawson palette unfortunately unless you got into beauty bay within the first hour of release the American store was the only way to get it. Morphe has never had it at all.

So ill have a delighted 15 year old on Xmas day but I am furious Royal Mail charge £8 handling fee for £6 customs charges... which I’d happily have paid in advance if I’d been given an option. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Some fab toy deals on Very atm.

Spotify and PlayStation gift cards can be bought in Wilkinsons

Hello, does anyone have a code for PACT coffee please? I want to buy a gift set rather than a subscription. Thank you very much!!

RJnomore1, I was in the post office the other day when a lady in front had to pay a customs charge. The lady behind the desk said she could claim back the customs charge (but not the Royal Mail charge). I didn't catch all of the details but apparently there is a code number and website details on the sticker about the charge?? Sorry I'm a bit vague with the details but it might be worth a try??

@passremarkable you can use VICTORI-51E7B6

My Cocktail Man order arrived today. I ordered on 26th I think so hang on in there, they must be busy. Really lovely looking kit, pleased with it.

@Rosie2000 Don't know if it's the kind you are looking for but Firebox do lots of personalised cushions amongst other things.

@SleeptightDaisy with regards to the wish order my confirmation email says that they will be posted royal mail first class(2-3 working days) on their website they are promising that all orders will be received by Christmas, so fingers crossed!

Sylvanian families grand department store down to £65.60 on Amazon which looks like a good if still extortionate price

White Stuff sale is on. Lots at 50%

I’ve collected the Spode set for about 15 years so have a pretty big collection now. Comes out for the whole of December. It’s very good quality and people always comment. I love mine- well done to all those who have given in.
Thank you for your nice comments re gallbladder. I’m still here. Camera tomorrow - distracting myself on mumsnet (not googling anything medical- promise)

I've got a cheap b&m Christmas plate set. When my DC are older I'm going to collect Spode.

Morning all!
I thought I had finished my shopping but apparently not. We had agreed not to do presents with SiL and BiL, just focus on the kids this year. However SiL has handed in their presents and added a very nice bottle of wine for me and DH. We haven’t given them their presents yet and DH thinks we need to get them something. Under £15 ideally. Any ideas? I was thinking of a small cheese board but they are away for Christmas so not ideal!

I need to buy Vue cinema gift cards, does anyone know if i can get them discounted? I think vodafone and Costco may but I'm not with them.

Plus a bit random but can anyone recommend an electric drum kit? I ordered one from amazon but they were a duff seller and want to make sure I don't get some crap 😁....thanks!

I twitched, not even a little twitch ffs
Pandora Harry Potter, now DD has another main present.

@Gardenworm amazon were doing a vue cinema gift pack which included tickets and popcorn. Not sure if it was a bargain though.

Any M&S codes knocking about?

The kiddizoom cameras are on sale for £34.19 on Amazon. This is the cheapest I've ever seen them and I've been watching for about a year 😂 kiddizoom camera

Thanks @SweetPeaPods it's just the vouchers they want, I think I've seen the ones with popcorn and they're over priced x
