@Hophop26 I'll have a look at that thanks x

My Neom mystery box just arrived and is AMAZING! I wish I'd bought more!
For those still waiting I got:
1 de-stress scented candle
Energy burst body and hand wash
Stress relief pulse point oil
Glowy SPF 30 moisturiser
Grapefruit Lemon and Rosemary fragrance
Ultimate Calm face wash.

again to who recommended it.

I have also had 3 couriers today, thankfully dp out for 2 of them

Off to look at Paperchase but may wait till they have Christmas paper in. Famous last words

20% off at new look, code is BANKHOL20

@Mumto3thatsme glad you found something in the sale. I got 3 pairs of boots for £128. Just keeping fingers crossed they fit me when they arrive (I'm short so knee highs often end up over my knees but Dune have usually been okay).

Meant to add, I use the British Airways shopping portal rather than TCB because I want the Avios points. Can also get avios points for purchases from Dust and Things which I recommended on the last thread.

There is a good clinique deal at boots posted over on hukd. Free 6 piece set and 125ml dramatically different moisturiser when you buy 3 products- works on the mini lipsticks that are £7 each but have 15% off too

Debenhams have 15% or 20% off fragrance/make up/beauty depending on brand online and in store

I want the weighted blanket but there's only 4 or 11kg in stock, the 6kg is gone. Does anyone know what I should get?! Is 4 really thin? Is 11 really hot?!

I think someone was looking for a dressing table for their DD.

This is the one in B&M, with my trolley next to it to show size (and a photo of the measurements!). They had it in pink and white, £50.

pong
Tiny pong was a big hit in my nephews house last year, I’m getting it for my guys this year. It’s down to £9.50 in Argos

Top Cashback has a voucher for 25% of Nike today with 10% cash back as well. Check T&Cs for certain brands excluded.

@Elphaba17 that Clinique deal is amazing!

You're probably all on it already but just in case; sign up for Storewards and Shoppix to earn a bit of extra cash back.

I purchase through easyfundraising to raise funds for my Guides, then forward my e-receipts to Shoppix to gain points. Or I snap a photo of physical receipts & upload them.

I've had £20 from Shoppix so far this year and have another fiver saved, then have a £3 amazon voucher from Receipt hog just from photographing receipts (that one's going in Sept though), and am well on my way to £5 on Storewards by snapping paper receipts.

Thank you to whoever posted the Dinosaur Egg thing - I saw it come up the first time but didn't get it as I wasn't sure grandson was into dino's I then saw it the 2nd time and had another look but again decided against it, then today I see pictures of my grandson at a dinosaur park and a comment from my DIL that he IS into dino's in a big way so I rushed to Amazon to nab one but they'd gone back to £24.99 I put it into camelcamelcamel without much hope as they'd reduced them twice already and not 30 mins later got the email saying price dropped to £10.99 on Prime! So I grabbed one quick!

I’ve ordered the Clinique deal! No idea who gets the lipstick but the freebies are great!

@filthyforfirth they have these in lidl if its helpful?

24 Disney book advent calendar for £12.
No idea what the story quality will be like but nice that it's something different from toys/chocolate!

@FireflyGirl my dds would love those dressing tables, will have to get measuring their rooms and off to b&m ha!

Missed the smasher eggs again bloody work will keep an eye though and hope it goes back down not that we need more useless shit but the kids love it and if it what they really want

Perfect for teens and extra 20% off.

I ordered other stuff (face masks etc) as free delivery over £35. £71.50 worth for £35.68. That’s DD’s stocking sorted!

Thats Disney Book Advent Calendar is fab - but a bit too girly for my grandson however I have finally got something to add to this thread!

Marvel Books Advent Calendar

Currently £13.79 down from £19.99 on Prime.

If anyone is buying for sporty people, Mitre have some things in their sale that are reduced by quite a bit at the moment.

This track top for example is only £7.05 now. Useful to throw on before/after training, or just as a lightweight jacket really.

Obviously not all the sale stuff is available in all sizes/colours - I really wanted the hoodie in an XS or S for my nephew, but no colours in stock in those sizes. So track top it will be!

Has anyone got or used the Hoverkarts for kids? Any reviews

NightOwl I'm planning on getting a hoverkart for my dc. I've seen a dc using one and they looked pretty manageable, much easier than just a hoverboard. I know they aren't allowed on streets though, but we can access some private land to use them.

@MsMiaWallace

Are the Hype lucky bags worth it? Anyone that's ordered one what did you get?

I bought one last year, we got a hoody, a coat, a bag, a pencil case, joggers, shorts & tshirts. Was well worth it.
