Sorry, not caught up at all with last thread because of a germy family. I’m figuring this will be the thread with Christmas on though!

No links etc because I’m figuring you know it all now and we’re so nearly there!

Happy Christmas everyone 🎄☃️❄️🎅🏻

Seasalt jute and cute jute on sale now so I’ve ordered for next years (and all future years!) sustainable wrapping.

I’m resisting the Boots sale. I normally buy loads but last year I bought hardly anything and being a stay at home parent I’m trying not to buy just for the sake of buying. This thread over the last few years has really taught me to think more about what I’m buying, spend more on quality things that the recipient will appreciate, save the environment too (and obviously being on this thread it’ll be at a bargain price!)

Mammamia, I returned something to Amazon yesterday, i just requested a return and they sent me a QR code(is that what its called)

Unless it was faulty they knock the price of the return postage off the refund amount.

Origins has -30% sale. If you sign up for email you get -15% on the top of that and free delivery.

Bansku19 · 24/12/2019 13:53

I got all of the kids presents at reduced price. Several Lego sets were -50%. I think best reduction was 67% off Lego friends set. Also all of my sisters family were bargains. And so was dh. Not sure if I spent less than last year when I bought pretty much everything on full price. I think I bought more...

RagingBall · 24/12/2019 13:59

Is there a list of Christmas family film anywhere? I was hoping to watch one tonight but the kids are complaining they've seen them all!

Happy xmas all

CosmicVagina · 24/12/2019 15:13

@eastmidswarwicknightnanny are you Tiara Rose in disguise?

You are the only person to post when there is an offer at Tiara Rose, it's a nice site but not an obviously large businesses that would crop up on people's radar this often?

I dont think there is a problem if you are advertising them but it would be nice to know.

eastmidswarwicknightnanny · 24/12/2019 15:21

@cosmic nope just done lots of my shopping with them, little footprint and couple other independent retailers :)

Spartonian · 24/12/2019 15:42

Notlongnow1 · 24/12/2019 21:52

Where does everyone go from here?? Is there a year round thread?

Sux2buthen · 24/12/2019 22:33

I'll partly miss this thread but I'm also a little relieved to not be scouring the web every half hour for bargains!
Thanks for all of the tips, I hope you all have a lovely Christmas 🎄

Spartonian · 24/12/2019 22:58

DC still awake, I'm knackered, they have never caught me before and I'm not about to let them now.

Theonlyoneiknow · 24/12/2019 23:54

DS is 10 tomorrow so frantically decorating his birthday cake and hanging up birthday banners and decorations!

Thanks for all the bargain tip offs everyone! Here is to a happy and healthy 2020 x
