Just keeping the title similar should anyone have missed the last title and info.

NEW INFO PLZ READ
**please post any bargain info IN BOLD to make it easier to scroll through the thread.

To make things bold you:
Put a star each side of what you want to make bold like this but without the space between the star and the writing *

Just a reminder you can watch the thread by clicking on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first message. It’s much easier for everyone than so many place marking every time which can use up a fair chunk of each thread to scroll through Thanks

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.

Would anyone please have a spare Boden 25% off code or know when they might have another deals weekend? Even with 15% off code I found I’m not sure I can justify the dress my daughter has circled 5 times in the catalog Grin

@makingmiracles
Those PJs are gorgeous! No young girls in our family though & unfortunately they don't seem to have any for boys in the sizes needed.

I did however spend an obscene amount on Gap whilst there for my DC.. they didn't actually need anything clothing wise Confused but to be fair at those prices!

Jacopone · 07/10/2020 22:44

I do need the buns.

I keep thinking I need the buns then I have to stop and remind myself that nobody likes cinnamon. Step away from the buns!!

thelegohooverer · 07/10/2020 22:47

@Shufflebumnessie and @sorryiasked 😊

makingmiracles · 07/10/2020 22:48

Wow, went to look again and the gap pjs are already sold out! Quite a good find for me as I nearly always miss the quick deals!
Thanks for the blankets suggestions I will browse now!

WithIcePlease · 07/10/2020 22:48

@littlestpogo thank you
I cancelled the 435g one. It was £3.50 now £8.50 😳
I'll hold off for the kit

I've just ordered this Usborne General Knowledge lift-the-flap book for £5 from Amazon and it arrived and is really lovely for the price. DS loves non-fiction and this is jam-packed with facts and info:

Usborne General Knowledge book

Also, @makingmiracles we got some lovely monogrammed blankets from Lands End a couple of years ago - and I seem to remember seeing a discount code somewhere on here recently.

AlbertCampion · 07/10/2020 22:56

Sorry, bold fail. Usborne General Knowledge lift-the-flap book - £5 see above.

AlbertCampion · 07/10/2020 22:58

Oh god and the link has gone too! How has that happened? Why has all my fancy formatting disappeared?

I know this isn't really very Christmassy, but I think it's an amusing stocking filler Dettol

@PinkDaydreams Were you after milky bar advent calendars? They had them in Home bargains in runcorn.

AMAZON BANNER AD £5 back if you have £25 order delivered to an amazon locker

home bargains had nice candle in pic - really big unboxed but triple wick, looked expensive if you missed out on the wax lyrical. It was £7.99

They also have these fake indoor snowballs for £3.99 these were a massive hit with everyone last year and will be brought our every year ad infinitum

I don’t think I’m saving any money! That’s 3 pairs of kids pyjamas I really didn’t need to go with the puppets, gruffalo books, £5 t-shirts and wooden blocks. Oh well, it’s Christmas 🎄

I made the chocolate cheesecake Brownies tonight. They were very popular. There’s Only one left.

Tiggles · 07/10/2020 23:22

I managed to put info on 3d printers on the end of the old thread.
Where to buy, good prices etc.

whatwillicallmyself · 07/10/2020 23:27

@Uselessindisguise I just went into amazon on my app and then went into prime and scrolled down through the offers, I found the original one posted for £5 off £25 spend and when I clicked into it it gave me a code, and then I saw the £5 credit if you download a free book so I did that and they sent me an email to say I received credit, so got £10 off my £25 spend.

buckeejit · 07/10/2020 23:49

@woodwaj can't remember if I said this before so apologies if I'm repeating myself but you could easily commission someone to make a peg doll for you or have a bash yourself. It's very therapeutic & children don't judge artistic ability too much if they know who it's meant to represent!

Puffalicious · 07/10/2020 23:57

Yup, didn't get any PJs on tap but spent too much on clothes for DS3 for next summerBlush

catanddogmake6 · 07/10/2020 23:57

@makingmiracles National Trust often have nice blankets. Although never seen any offers on them.

CatelynStark · 08/10/2020 00:15

Buns! The 615g ones are at £3.08 again and I got them, asking trying for AGES. Yay!

CatelynStark · 08/10/2020 00:17

Annie1290 · 08/10/2020 00:29

I swear I'm missing these buns by minutes 😭

recklessgran · 08/10/2020 00:43

@PosyBoo have pm'd you a Boden code.

MostIneptThatEverStepped · 08/10/2020 01:03

Can anyone tell me which Kukubird items the SECRETS2 discount applies to? 😊

EweSurname · 08/10/2020 06:17

I fear there may be no more buns on offer as there are now only two sellers of buns and neither are the seller who was discounting them.
