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

does anyone have any suggestions/codes for the LEGO 42107 Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R? Camel Camel Camel shows Amazon best price currently for £49.50, JL currently have this at £49.99... playing with the idea of buying this as an additional gift for lovely DP but really should stop spending!

Clevererthanyou · 25/10/2020 13:48

Of course it may help if I post the code side of the vouchers Hmm

Ive seen pp mentioning graphics pad and I skipped over it as I had no clue what it was but now I'm wondering if it's something my DH would like. Can anyone who has one please explain what they use it for? And obviously if there are any bargains to be had!

Clevererthanyou · 25/10/2020 13:48

For FUCKS sakes, they’re valid from the 1st - 30th November. I’m so sorry.

Jigsaw books Aldi £3.99 they have a couple of different ones, I picked up a dinosaur, solar system and playtime one. They had one or two others but I can't recall what they were l. They're pretty big too.

Puffalicious · 25/10/2020 14:29

Anyone local still hunting the Aldi wooden toys they have loads of everything in the Cardonald, Glasgow branch. Just reopened after a huge refurb, so perhaps that's why.

I'm looking for Sansung earpods. Can't wait til Black Friday as DS birthday 13th Nov.

slithytoveisascientist · 25/10/2020 15:20

Can anyone recommend some bargainous walking boots?

Puffalicious · 25/10/2020 15:32

Slithy Decathlon are excellent. Recently took DS16 for new boots- went to Go Outdoors, usually great but little stock; Tiso; Blacks etc and very expensive. He got these boots and loves them. I can see now they're reduced. There are similar in the women's section. Their quality is superb, very much comparable to Salomon for sure.

Carrie76 · 25/10/2020 15:42

Would anyone have a Celtic and co discount code please? I want to treat myself Smile

Whydoyouthinkthatthen · 25/10/2020 15:44

spagbog5 · 25/10/2020 15:53

@Whydoyouthinkthatthen

mumontherun14 · 25/10/2020 15:54

Still no buns!

Purpleheadgirl · 25/10/2020 15:59

@Puffalicious we got some samsung+ earbuds on prime day but from the amazon warehouse section. They had an extra 20% off and were £75 rather than £135 but were still a good deal at £90 something. Arrived perfectly as new. Have seen standard earbuds go up and down between £87 and £120 on amazon so imagine there might be some of those on warehouse section

4Minions2CallMyOwn · 25/10/2020 16:04

Build a Bear: WINNER30 for 30% off

Gentleman Jack whisky on Amazon for £26.29 RRP is £36. DH asked for it for Christmas.

Tamtam86 · 25/10/2020 16:28

Handmade Christmas Co sacks are £15 with code MERRY15

I have one for DD I bought for her first Christmas and they are lovely, I've been looking out for a deal to get one for her baby brother Smile

@nocutsnobuttsnococonuts

Thank you for the storytime recommendation on last thread, hopefully might encourage my reluctant reader to read something!! I bought the 6 back issues for £7.99 from wowcher and the new subscription of 6 issues for £9.99.

There's some star gifts on boots. I got mil the Yankee candle box set for £25 instead of £56. Theres 2 different real techniques sets half price too.

Which real technique set are they? I can’t find them
lazzaroo · 25/10/2020 16:55

Is there a current IWOOT or Smyths code around? I'm shopping for my mum and she wants to get some lego but the set seems so expensive I'd love to get the price down for her if I can.

I think Argos has quite a few sets reduced if that helps at all
girlsyearapart · 25/10/2020 17:03

I ordered buns at 430 this morning and did it on subscribe and save so in theory get them each month for £3ish?
Handy since DH got positive covid results this morning and I have to entertain the kids for 14 days 😳

lazzaroo · 25/10/2020 17:04

Thanks justforyou the particular set is cheaper in the other places than in Argos even with their reduction. I was just being hopeful in that I might be able to knock a few more pounds off!!

Xmaspartyanimal · 25/10/2020 17:04

@lazzaroo Argos has code Lego10 that takes 10% off. Amazon have sometimes good deals.

NaraDeer · 25/10/2020 17:08

Does anyone have any experience with the Nespresso Lattissma? I’m looking for the easiest machine to make nice lattes, nothing that involves grinding beans or any effort really Grin

Xmaspartyanimal · 25/10/2020 17:08

@lazzaroo Amazon France/Germany/Spain have different sets reduced than uk. I ordered one Lego set from Amazon Germany

I’ve got the Nespresso Latissima touch, I’ve had it for 2 years and love it- I love the lattes it makes. All the milk frothing bits go in the dishwasher and it’s very easy to clean and descale. If and when you buy it register for the nespresso club on their website and you’ll be sent anywhere from 100 - 250 free capsules. I went for 150 capsules and a free coffee cup as my welcome gift. I now buy capsules from other places which work out much cheaper.
