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

[quote NoWordForFluffy]@kerosene20, I have Lakeland codes valid from Thursday. Will that work for you?[/quote]
That would be great thank you so much, only if you’re sure you won’t use.

@kerosene20, £5 off £30 or £10 off £60?

Can I just say that I love the feeling of community son this thread: everyone helping each other, it's like Christmas spirit right here in our own, wee bubble.

Not sure how much the cinnamon buns have been going for but Debenhams have them for £8, maybe worth watching in case they go down in the upcoming sale!

@Tigger83 @applepinkierainbow @Chocolateteabag yes just a pain to navigate but so many hidden bargains.

@Puffalicious I agree. I need to van myself from all topics other than Christmas

I'm going to start wrapping tomorrow.

Candles came today, teachers sorted

Thank you to the PP that recommended Enchantimals, I meant to reply sooner to say thanks for the suggestion and have now managed to lose the post and your name 🤦‍♀️

Re Amazon Prime Day last year - I bought Ancestry DNA kits for their (I think) lowest ever price. An unusual gift idea, perhaps?

I had the buns and a candle arrive today. Like other people, I wish I’d ordered more than just one candle. I want one for myself!

Does anyone know of a discount code for New Look? I can find one for a £100 spend but I only want to spend £30

[quote NoWordForFluffy]@kerosene20, £5 off £30 or £10 off £60?[/quote]
10 off 60 would be amazing thank you! @lexloofah thank you also for the kind offer!

Popped into matalan earlier and they had some really good bargains.

Speak out game. £22 down to £5
Some fingerling £15 down to £6
Walking unicorns. £25 down to £12.50.
Nerf guns half price.
Most of the toys and games section had decent savings.

I dont know why I need the buns but.... I do! Keeping a beady eye on them!

@AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings the BabyBorn boy dolls are anatomically correct. It’s available in 2 sizes, the standard size which is quite big/heavy and the “little” one which is better size for 2/3 year olds. We have the smaller one and it came with outfit, nappy, potty, dummy and bottle. Not interactive though but does wee, cry tears and can go in the bath

@AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings
anatomically correct boy doll Smyth we had this one and it's great

Candle arrived, it's gorgeous, DD13 saw me open it and promptly made off with it

@whoknows1230 I have a 25% off new look through my blue light card, send me a pm and I'll send you the code

Thank you all for the fake oodie comments, can someone link to the reliable fake one from prime that you brought from please :)
Thank you
Glad the tea was useful!

@AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings we had an earlier version of this shop.zapfcreation.co.uk/baby-annabell-shop/age-baby-annabell/1-age-baby-annabell/baby-annabell-little-alexander/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-5O_vduM7AIVjM_tCh3UOgrJEAQYAiABEgIDovD_BwE

I had these come through in an email from New Look, they're always sending some sort of code or discount.

Scoobysnacker
I have a box of apple poptarts
Only I can't remember if 12.or 16

I import from the USA as a bit of a sideline

Startrite have sent me a single use 15% off code, if anyone would like it just drop me a pm.

20% off Mountain Warehouse (MISTY) plus free p&p (ends tonight). Just bought two sets of fleece fingerless gloves for the kids for school as the temperature drops for £12.98 delivered. See here for gloves

Thanks @woodwaj I've used the £10 off code

Someone mentioned sheepers slippers earlier - you can get a lucky dip pair for £22 on NOTHS

I too ordered some candles.
4 in fact

They're beautiful I'm slightly annoyed at Amazon for just chucking them over the gate as the decorative boxes are a bit dented.

If I am reading correctly.....
If you spend £10 on a small business at amazon from tomorrow and have prime then you get a £10 voucher back to spend on their prime day. Prime offer and I believe this shows you what qualifies.
