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

@Shitfuckoh I do think I've messed up as I've come home with one called Tracker but I really liked his ears Grin. I'm sure we'll know their names by Christmas!

Shitfuckoh · 29/10/2020 16:28

@Someaddedsugar Haha Tracker is from Jungle Rescue. There's Everest too from a different series - just to confuse you. Okay I need to get a life Grin

@Someaddedsugar
I wish you luck!! I bought DS3 all of the Ready race rescue ones for his Birthday in August, just to discover a new range (the Dino rescue ones) were to be released a few days after his Birthday. Not the first time that's happened either. Our house is full of pups and I don't mean the cute cuddle woofy types!

@NoWordForFluffy thanks, that looks super!

EvilHerbivore · 29/10/2020 16:45

@mogtheexcellent oh that's such a shame
Thanks for letting me know that though

Lellyo · 29/10/2020 16:46

Don’t no if this will be if any interest but Zip World Snowdonia are doing 2 4 1 on their vouchers at the moment, i’m sure they have a long expiry date too?

Ridikulusness · 29/10/2020 16:51

Has everybody got their Sapling vodka now?
I was one of the few who received the very polite email saying our orders would be delayed. Mine said I’d have it by Wednesday 28th October but there’s no sign of it, and no update. Just wondering if others are in the same boat.

Any ideas what to buy for nephew early 20s just moved in with girlfriend into a little flat. I guess I’ll have to buy a more ‘couples’ type present this year. Both into health and fitness. Not sure whether to go for first year in new home type gift but drawing a blank! Any ideas my lovelies?

Cash is best or John Lewis Gift voucher?

My DD and her boyfriend bought a house this year. She like Joseph Joseph kitchen stuff?

ninjaturtlesmum · 29/10/2020 17:19

I'm not sure if anyone is interested but I have received a £50 off a £200 spent at Beaverbrooks voucher through the post if anyone wants it. Send me a pm if you do.

WoolOvers 20% off with XML20

My catalogue arrived with this code, DH also got a catalogue but only 10% on his - why do companies do that? Don't they think we might google codes?

One was a gift - they are very lovely - I would email them /ring. Hope it comes soon

Can anybody remember the beer52 code please?

Mine has arrived today and DP answered the door so I've let him have it 🙄

He now wants to tell his mates! Great gift as long as you intercept the parcel!

Rockhopper81 · 29/10/2020 18:10

@Chocolateteabag - thank you for the Mighty Ape link, we have family in New Zealand who had a baby this year, so will look there for Christmas gifts. We sent gifts when they were born, but it would be easier to not have to work to a size of box!

I don't suppose you have any other suggestions of where to look for delivery to NZ?

@MonaChopsis thank you :)

Got my mum staying this Christmas Eve into Christmas Day (support bubble)
I'm doing a Christmas Eve box for my young kids, but I'd like to do a grown up version for her as it's the first time she's stayed and we're all very excited.
She's in her 70s. Any ideas?
I bought the Christmas Carol book up thread (it's gorgeous) and am planning a nice mug and hot choc. But I've drawn a blank after that??
