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

Do any shops sell single pairs of character/fun print socks for men anymore?! All the usual suspects seem to have packs of 5 for around the £8 mark, only want one or two pairs as a stocking filler

Just been to Dunelm and they had single pairs of Christmas socks - Santa jaws was one that I noticed! If you’re after just non Christmassy socks then New Look is good for men and women

I've just bought the Hygge bands, that's a fab offer (although I do wonder if anybody ever buys them at full price!). It let me add a mystery band at £2.99, and didn't count it as part of the buy one get three free, so I'm getting five bands for £26something.

Not looking for bargains as I've already found one but has anybody got any experience of a teeter bopper? Thinking of a joint gift for my 2 at Christmas and 4.5 year old but don't know anybody who actually has one to know if they are actually good or not?

My DS used the teeter popper at school loads, although as part of his physio sessions, rather than choosing to play with it.

To get the popping sound, you need to be using it on laminate or something similar, it doesn't really work on carpet. It's also the sort of thing I was glad he had at school as it's the sort of noise I find hard to live with.

If it's the rocking rather than the sound that you think they'd like I'd look at balance board/wobble board options instead.

Decleor advent gone already. It's a great calendar too, I bought it a few years ago & loved it all

A few threads back someone posted about the cotton/macrame style hanging rainbow from B&M for £3.

I've just bought one and it is lovely! What a bargain!
Much bigger than I thought it would be too. I was expecting Xmas tree decoration size but its around 8ins x 6ins at a guess.

I can't see it on their website but its this one mentioned on HUKD

Does anyone remember when the QVC Tili beauty boxes were out last year or when they'll be out this year?? I got them the year before, on special offer for £10 each and were fantastic presents. Last year I missed the offer by a day! So I'd really really like to get some this year. The M&S beauty box is nice, but I think the Tili one would be better.

My daughter has had one for 3 years and still uses it a lot- but she has additional needs hence why she hasn’t grown tired of it. They’re great for children who struggle with with anxiety

Urgently need to order Sainsbury’s dress up costumes. Does anyone know how their sizing is? Generous or better to size up?

Sorry argos code gone

@myhobbyisouting you just ring up to cancel - really easy

No idea what's going on with my formatting either as the wrong bits are in bold!

And, do you know how long the delivery may take?
Sorry, a bit panicking but mine now decided they want full enchilada halloween at home. Arghhhhh...,,

I find their ordinary kids clothes pretty big, and DD had a stick man costume that was big.

@waitforitwaitforit, great, thank you.
Ordering right now. Never a dull day with bored teenagers...

It sure if anyone has mentioned 25% off wine at Sainsburys (6+ bottles)

Not many of the usual extra other offers but always a good excuse!

ASDA also have the wine offer.

Those robots that follow where you draw - has anyone seen any anywhere? So they work?
