Here’s Barbarara’s instructions from last year on doing clicky links:

Open double square brackets

Paste link
Space
Name of link
No space
Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

For anybody looking for Lottie dolls Gullivers toys have a few for £16.99 (Pandora, snow queen etc), cheaper than amazon, though you do have to pay post and packing if under a certain amount, think its £25. They also stock brio, playmobil 123, sylvanians, barbie etc as well as an extensive selection of blind bags

@PinkDaydreams where about on your eBay did you find the £10? I can't seem to find it

@BicycleMadeForTwo @Adelais I ordered 7 of the daisy jumpers. According to my eBay account they have been dispatched and due between today and Wednesday. I’m not holding my breath but no cancellation email yet!

I went on my ebay app and it just popped up randomly from the bottom of the screen. I honesty have no idea why I've got it but I'm not complaining!!

Pop culture goodies at FAN GRRRL are all half price with the discount code FIFTY.

Fab browsing place for hard to buy for people with hand-drawn merchandise for shows like Fleabag, Killing Eve and Schitts Creek, music-related art and accessories and extremely cool quote pencils.

The site used to be called Livin' in La La Land when I introduced it to the threads a few years ago but, as ever, bear in mind it's a one-woman operation and things can take a few weeks to arrive.

@VividImagination Mine was the same, dispatched and due before Wednesday but got a message from the seller this morning. Hopefully yours will still be ok

Matalan codes spare:

Thank you all for the Paperchase help x

Someone linked on here the other day to Amazon teabags for 99p. I'd had them saves for a few months as a stocking filler and forgot so ordered them. Anyway, just arrived! Box is different to advertised on Amazon but no problem, expiry is July 2022. Great for 99p

Those are so cute! Do you have a link to them?

Ah sorry, slow screen refresh today, @margaritasbythesea had kindly linked to the FIFTY discount already.

Red London Bus London Tea 6... www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07T3XCQ1G?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share&tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I hope that link has worked? New phone so I'm still learning!

@dizzygirl1 gardening hamper ideas: gardening gloves, seed balls in a tin, packets of seeds, copy of gardeners world, twine, planting calendar, kneeling mat, hand cream, mug - have seen some alllotment scene ones and one shaped like a plant pot

@margaritasbythesea bargain max had sonic screwdrivers discounted. Not seen any other bargains, I’m looking too!

For any Harry Potter fans the 8 film DVD set is currently £25 on Amazon. It's the cheapest it's been since 2017 according to the 3 camels.

Zavvi are doing 15% off lego with code LEGO15.

Any discount codes or student discount for radley. Seen purse will do MIL in their sale. Also tesco toys sale in store today. Had a lovely elsa doll for 17.50

Thanks for the Fangrrrl code - got a few things for the awkward teen

I have got a reconditioned phone from Giffgaff i highly recommend them. The phones are unlocked and you do have to get a giffgaff sim but you dont have to activate or pay for it until you activate.
I used my old sim in it fine until i had to change my number and then just swapped over.

Hi all, all caught up and gutted I've missed the buns 😩

We went to our local Xmas extravaganza garden Centre and my DS fell in love with a walk along triceratops. It had like a leash stick and walked along when you pushed a button but you held onto it. I've found the same unicorn they had but not their dinosaur. Has anybody seen anything similar online? Those similar I have seen are just plushes that you push or drag

Some great (but not bargainous) Doctor Who gifts here - has anyone ordered from Fun.co.uk before? Particularly like the Tardis onesie and weeping angel Christmas tree topper 😂

Meant to tag @margaritasbythesea on the doctor who link

Thank you IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts and TheDrsDocMartens.

My pasta came with cocktails not gin too but all good for £4

I had an email saying they’ve run out of gin so I will be getting cocktails instead
