Some matalan codes i won't use :)

If you use one pop it on the thread so others don't bother unnecessarily

Beautiful premium toys from brands like Maileg, Moulin Roty, kapla, Grimms on One hundred toys reduced until midnight tonight with BIRTHDAY 20. Looks like 20% off with free postage for orders over £50. Other orders (not sure of limit) are 10% off (paid postage)

Thanks @woodwaj for the codes - I used the £5 off £25.

@ClaraLane thank you - that's a cracking deal on Country Living especially since you get £6.60 back via TCB with any Hearst subscription - so a ridiculous £8.80 for 6 months mag as well as the Sophie Allport mug. Brilliant!

@Raindropsonrosesand would you know if one hundred toys have a normal discount code as the stuff I like isn't in the sale unfortunately. Thank you 😊

I have ordered 3 fake Oodies, just look and they are coming from China late October. I might cancel and get the real ones. I’m worried they will be really cheap and nasty!

I won't use my Matalan codes, but I am sure that they will help someone on here.

£5 off £25 spend SMED5-5RV-00MZ63-178

£10 off £50 spend SMED1-5S0-00780L-7BC

£15 off £75 spend SMED15-5SW-00GUYH-BFF

Love this thread!

I got the Sienna fake oodie from Amazon (currently £23 but I paid £16) and it looks and feels lovely

I also got a Siena oodie. It arrived next day via Prime and is lovely

www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B081S1CZQF/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?linkCode=as2&linkId=19c6262adb922b51d0ded08eba4e0ca3&creativeASIN=B081S1CZQF&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&ie=UTF8&creative=6738

3 Baylis and Harding handwashes for £4.50 They're marble ones so would look nice in a hamper.

Would the Siena hoodie fit a very tall but slim 8 year old?

He's 4 ft 9 if it helps

Siena oodie here. Good quality and cosy. Lovely blush pink colour and have ordered another for myself! Think £22 a good price.

I'm sorry I've looked and I can't find it now, was there a code for Adidas please?

@superstar84 they are huge as one size fits all sizes! I think height wise would be ok but there is a lot of it so depends if he wants to move about ... you could always use it if it doesn’t suit...

I dont think so superstar84. My 10 yr old is 5 foot and you would fit about 5 of her in there
They're massive

Thankyou I won't order one then, maybe I'll get him a new onesie instead

I think youd be better finding a kids one tbh

@Bezzi yes it was on their site, ADISALE I think

I’m trying to convince myself that I don’t need a Country Life subscription 😂 All for a free mug!!

I’m just about to place a ribbon room order and it’s £6.95 postage 😯

Thanks for this tip!

Thank you @Dovesandkisses have ordered the soaps!

Last day today for 25% off Crew Clothing. Their cotton face masks are lovely and have the embroidered Crew logo. They work out at £3.75 each. I bought some as boring but practical stocking fillers for my hard to buy for, posh in-laws.

Just had an email from Amazon saying their Amazon Prime ‘Day’ is 13th and 14th October!!!

Missed the hand-wash and I'd love that for a hamper for my mum, please could they be flagged again when they drop? Just need to think what else I can put in the hamper.
Also if anyone has any ideas for a gardening hamper for my dad I would appreciate it.
But if a tough Christmas this year as I've separated from my husband and have DD 13 and ds 11 who need phones.... DD thinks iPhone is what she needs 😭😭😭
