Thanks @sorryiasked for thread title

Great to be back ladies. Extra skint this year as I took an extra year on my maternity, but catching up with this thread has netted half of 2 yo wooden toys and two sil pressies. Bring on the bargains!

Not sure were to post about the beer advent calenders. For anyone who is interested Brewdog have their advent calender on order for £49

@wherethewavesarehighest Contigo travel mugs are great as everyone said.

There's a £2.40 off voucher in the free tesco mag atm too. Online code GRJP7M

Just a word of warning re the contigo mugs - my local Tesco have new ones with a different style of lid and they're nowhere near as good as the originals. I ended up getting another original one from Amazon.

Thank you to the poster who recommended the Cocoba hot chocolate balls. Ours arrived today and DD is really enjoying her hot chocolate tonight! I got the gift set for BIL and it looks great. Really nicely packaged and all the use by dates are 2021.

Just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who contributes to these threads. We're so strapped for cash and I was worried that we wouldn't be able to afford much this year and this thread has been a godsend. I'll keep my eyes peeled for any bargains to add!

This might seem totally obvious! But I didn't know....

I put in 'toy deals of the day' on amazon search and saw great deals esp on lego, LOL dolls, some baby toys. There might be a more sophisticated way but I thought it came up with great things!

Thanks @Doctoryang for the link to the scarves, bought three! They also have great looking pure wool blankets for under £20, bought one of those as well for the car.

[quote CottonHeadedNinnyMug]@WineandDine Curious if the Neom discount worked on the wellbeing pod or not, it implies not in the blurb but its on my Christmas list and will flag it up to DH if so! X[/quote]
I’ve just ordered one so it definitely works!
As previous poster says, just make sure you buy the pod on its own and not in a bundle with any of the oils...

@thelegohooverer I ordered that fat face girls coat too and I am very happy with it. Adding my thanks to whoever posted it too!

TFSRM please could you share where you got the hot chocolate bombs from please? I missed them last year and regretted it.

In case it helps anyone, here are a few eBay stores which I think have the 20% off with code POCKET20 until Sunday! (£15+ spend)

Fiorelli official
Kitchenaid
Oliver Bonas Outlet
Outdoor Toy Store (mud kitchens)
Playmobil store
Perfume shop direct
Joules official
Regatta Outdoor Clothing
Lyle and Scott
Shark clean
Sports Direct (have roller blades etc)
Seasalt Cornwall Official
The Game Collection (cheapest for SEGA Megadrive Mini)

Ooooh, yay the bargain thread!

Thanks Reastie, I love these threads.

Not really a bargain but, if anyone has a pokemon fan then Smyths are doing a pre order pokemon advent calender that looks good.
Just ordered for pokemon mad DD.

Thanks for the scarf cashmere website. Two lovely Scottish lambswool scarves for £13 delivered. Awesome

Thanks for the Dunedin tip- 5 tartan scarves and a jumper on the way to me.

On travel mugs I'd like to chip in and offer the 720degree mug - with lid closed keeps it hot for hours! Also slim enough to fit car cup holders which many travel mugs aren't
And sorry for not doing a better click link

Link fail- just search 720 degree travel mug!

@princessbear80 - I hadn't thought about using a travel mug for getting through back-to-back Zoom calls - great idea, thanks!

I might be being dumb but how do you find a ‘store’ on eBay like the playmobil store?

@BadgerFace I just Google "Playmobil store eBay" I've never worked out how to find it on eBay but Google never lets me down!

@BadgerFace I usually just google ‘playmobil eBay store’ (or swap in the name of the store if you don’t want playmobil but want something different!)

Thanks both! (Definitely being dumb not thinking to google! )

Thanks @DoctorYang. Amazing deal on the wool scarves. I’ve ordered 4 for teacher presents
