It’s DHs birthday next month and he’d like an Apple Watch. He’d never expect one for his birthday as we usually only do token gifts but I’d like to push the boat out and get him one as this year has been pants hasn’t it?

Has anyone seen any good Apple Watch offers or deals anywhere?

Methenyouplus4 · 14/06/2020 08:21

John Lewis clearance is on, I didn't spot any particular bargains for us, but it might be useful for someone.

Someaddedsugar · 14/06/2020 08:49

@TLIMSISNW does it have to be new or could it be refurbished? Occasionally the Apple shop have refurbished offers on, and I’m sure the phone re-selling sites do too.

Hmm no ebay voucher for me but thanks anyway.

Has anyone ordered socks with custom photos printed on them? They look cute but are they actually rubbish quality?

recklessgran · 14/06/2020 10:36

Morning all. Just place marking - checking in ready for another year. No actual bargains as such but a code for 30% off at Skechers for kids and men. CELEBRATE30 valid until next Sunday. Just used it to get trainers for DH.

Hi, just placemarking as I found this thread so useful last christmas. With 4 kids between us and another one on the way (due Christmas week!) I want to start getting organised as soon as possible after my dds birthday in july. I'm planning to be done by end of november. Havent seen any bargains yet but Argos have some good toys in their clearance section I including lots of LOL surprise toys and toy story

CaptainSpirit · 14/06/2020 12:23

@Bluewavescrashing I've just ordered DH some photo face socks for Father's Day from a lady on Etsy, they came the other day - they're so cute and funny, I want to keep them for myself!

They're very well printed, I would attach a photo but it's my kids faces on them. 😬

Bluewavescrashing · 14/06/2020 13:42

Ooh @CaptainSpirit can you name the seller please?

Someaddedsugar · 14/06/2020 14:43

Only available in store but this wooden toy sushi set was £2.50 at Asda today.

Someaddedsugar · 14/06/2020 15:02

25% off and 99p delivery today only at New Look

Someaddedsugar · 14/06/2020 15:03

Can I be cheeky and ask if anyone has a Superga Student Beans code they could send me - it's 20% student discount and really want to get my sister the Superga x Scamp & Dude leopard print trainers!

ladyandthechocolate · 14/06/2020 16:23

I ordered DD a onesie today from John Lewis. You'll have to be quick as they're selling fast but a total bargain and I know the quality is lovely because we've had one from there before.

Bluewavescrashing · 14/06/2020 18:10

Amazing--I've ordered two of those unicorn onesies! £13 for both Inc delivery! Thank you for sharing.

FireflyGirl · 14/06/2020 19:46

Urban Decay are offering 20% off, plus free delivery.

ladyandthechocolate · 14/06/2020 19:53

@Bluewavescrashing you're welcome - such a bargain!

CaptainSpirit · 14/06/2020 19:54

@Bluewavescrashing She's called PansPrints on Etsy, I've just had a look on her page but it says currently sold out at the minute though! Definitely worth keeping an eye on her though, looks like she prints a lot of socks so she may stock more soon. Smile

@Someaddedsugar I bought that the other day from my local ASDA, thought it was £5 but scanned at £2.50. So good for the price, my three year old loves wooden food!

Bluewavescrashing · 14/06/2020 20:43

Thanks, I'll have a look after the father's day rush.

VivaJen · 14/06/2020 22:10

Georg Jensen has a sale on at the moment and I just got a lovely advent candle & holder for £17.70 reduced from £59. Postage is pricy but some really nice stuff

Someaddedsugar · 15/06/2020 08:23

@CaptainSpirit according to the website the set was £10 full price so definitely a bargain!

Legoandloldolls · 15/06/2020 08:25

Hi just joining today. Looking for my daughters birthday in Aug and noticed that lots of toys are sold out. Is this a covid blip?

Anyway its inspired me to think about Christmas!

Serenity25 · 15/06/2020 12:38

Joining today as well.

The entertainer has up to 50% off some toys, there are a few LOL toys included in that.
SAVE5 Gives £5 off a £20 shop, not sure if this includes sale items though.
The Entertainer

If anyone sees any good offers on balance bikes that would be great, just looking for a cheap one as not sure how much it will be used. Thanks.

Someaddedsugar · 15/06/2020 15:37

Haven't purchased from this site before but the Playmobil Porshe and horse box set is £25.00 at Jarrold Department Store - seems to be a good price as RRP is £50.00.

Someaddedsugar · 15/06/2020 15:39

@Serenity25 this balance bike was in store at our local Asda yesterday - not sure on the quality but was only £20? They only had it in blue though.

Someaddedsugar · 15/06/2020 15:42

And another bargain - Playmobil Rock Climbers reduced to £13.75 from £55
