@JaneyJimplin definitely smiggle! But get a deal. There is always some sort of special offer.

But if anyone did want a Barbie, they are only £5.50 in Morrisons at the moment. I decided not to buy one and now want to make a Barbie cake for my daughter! Doll with a cake dress would be perfect, so bake to Morrisons I'll go.

If anyone wants the kukubird leggings I just tested checking out two pairs and it’s taken off 11.99 so appears to be BOGOF rather than the advertised buy one get one half price x

@lolarabbit

Browsing for Bamboo socks with fun designs and came across the Thought website where they seem to be cheaper than some other options I have looked at.

This socks and bamboo cup gift set possibly not a huge bargain but maybe an idea for hard to buy for (different designs available).

TK Maxx often have reduced thought socks (got 2 pairs for 2.49 each) but obviously designs are limited.

There are two TSVs coming for Hotel Chocolat. One is the 19th of this month and the other is early November. One or the other is going to be the Velvetiser.

Morrisons have some good stuff in half price toy sale - some of them in this article (sorry, it’s the Sun)

TSVs on QVC. Missed the vital bit.

@weshallneversurrender thank you for the code i have used it too

lotusbell · 12/10/2020 18:21

Thanks @TheCrow, I worked that out by going back and reading the thread properly! Grin How annoying for everyone who ordered!

KavvLar · 12/10/2020 18:30

Lovely bargain hunters. I'm after a filter coffee machine and an electric razor. Any thoughts on where I might find myself a bargain? I will stalk the prime day tomorrow but am a bit worried I will miss things. Thanks in advance

@JaneyJimplin my 10yr old DTs love Tinc stationery - they are a bit over Smiggle to be honest, as are a lot of the girls in their class. They also like some slightly more grown up stuff - the kind of lovely pencils you randomly find in John Lewis or Anthropologie or Paperchase.

TK Maxx is also good for random lovely stationery and if you have one near you - our local Hallmark shop has a really good range of Santoro Gorjuss stuff in (all marked 50-60% off) which my girls are obsessed with. It also often randomly pops up in TK Maxx, and is usually available on Amazon, but tends to be dearer on there.

@Penguinbeaver there were two really great neom offers last year. One was a free diffuser with purchase and another was a free hand wash and lotion. I can’t remember the exact details but they were great deals. I’m holding out for them too!!

Betsy86 · 12/10/2020 18:39

extra £3 off your order when you spend over £15 online with Boots on the xmas 3 for 2 range. Code is XMASQMS3
I bought 3 gift sets i needed, so with the 3 for 2 and the extra £3 off i paid £37 instead of £60 plus had free delivery for spending enough to qualify so not bad Smile

Fuckingfuckssake · 12/10/2020 18:54

Can anyone give me a discount code for Trespass pretty please? Not sure if they do a student discount.

Cancangirlie · 12/10/2020 18:54

Cocktail Advent Calendar £10 Wilkos something a big different, no discount code I'm afraid but thought DD(22) might like this

Cancangirlie · 12/10/2020 19:07

Excuse the typo big = bit

JessicaJoans · 12/10/2020 19:11

Baaaaa Blush 2 pairs of kukubird leggings finally on their way to me.. (for my daughter who refuses to wear leggings). But the patterns are utterly amazing and I got the small business £10, so I think I can be excused.

myhobbyisouting · 12/10/2020 19:14

Confession - I hate leggings Blush they give me the creeps

AndddddHerewegoagain · 12/10/2020 19:16

Also on kukubird are scarves which have a 30% off voucher plus buy one get one half price. I don't know the quality of them but £5.50 for 2 scarves seemed a fair risk to take! i'll give them to my mil if horrible 😂

Clevererthanyou · 12/10/2020 19:17

@weshallneversurrender Thanks for the code! They haven't put up a variety of wrapping papers yet but they have some lovely and bargainous stocking fillers ☺️

dementedma · 12/10/2020 19:20

Best price on Doc Martens please? The link DD2 has sent me is for a pair at 159.00! I can get 10% off as my first order. Is that likely to be best prices. I’ve never worn them so don’t know the going rate . The ones she likes are 1460 SERENA Faux fur lined ankle boots.

Office are one of those ones who often have 10 or 20% off for blue light cards or students as well I think. Ignore me if they're not quite right though!
ImAllOut · 12/10/2020 19:27

Link fail sorry. I think that's the ones without the patterned fur though anyway so never mind!

dementedma · 12/10/2020 19:30

She’s a size 6 and the link is to the Dr Martens website

Fredelliottisayfredelliott · 12/10/2020 19:38

I'm after a soup maker if anyone spots one, ( not the morphy Richards one, that broke on first use)
