I still have no idea if that’s a typo, euphemism or actual shop
@XFPW 😬

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

@PhantomErik B&M have a few of that's not my book and toy sets

gavisconismyfriend · 01/11/2020 13:14

Lidl wooden toys came in on Thursday. Still lots left in our local stores. Great quality and enormous range. Some sets 2 for £10

Fancyateapottea · 01/11/2020 13:17

@HoneysuckleHalliana I think that code was valid for yesterday because of Halloween. This one will give 10% off if you’ve not ordered yet:
EBBAUK-ccj35s

Mumto3thatsme · 01/11/2020 13:53

@PhantomErik

Has anyone seen any That's Not My... books that come with a toy, suitable for a baby boy?

I saw the dinosaur one on Amazon but the reviews say the first page is in Spanish & the rest in English Confused

Currently watch a Snowman one that's £11.99.

Actually any book & toy bundle would be interesting if anyone has seen a bargain.

My contribution:
Lands End up to 79% off sale with code 2NTV

I’m sure I’ve seen them in Asda, not sure on price though
buckeejit · 01/11/2020 14:04

Also after a PS5 here & doesn't look hopeful. 😬

lexloofah · 01/11/2020 14:12

@BadgerFace does she mean actually jewellery locket or the polly pocket toy kind?

@TheLastStarfighter I can second the Mrs Snowballs bath bombs after seeing them mentioned on here I got DD some for her birthday, they are really substantial and the best, long lasting fizz and colours I have seen. I am going to order more for stockings.

Mumto3thatsme · 01/11/2020 14:21

I’m looking for a Christmas tree I could put out in the garden, preferably one prelit and suitable for the weather we get in Wales...any suggestions or recommendations please?

ThatScottishGirl · 01/11/2020 14:23

@lexloofah do they stain the bath at all? I’ve been avoiding bath bombs since we had our new bathroom put in but normally get the kids a lush one for stocking. I could look at these instead.

Elphaba17 · 01/11/2020 14:30

Just had a despatch email for the M&S ginSmile

@NightOwl19 picture of the Pandora box

Thread 16 - the one with slick willies
Scoleah · 01/11/2020 14:44

@NightOwl19

Does anyone know if you buy from the pandora website do the items come in gofr boxes like you could get when buying in the shop? I have w couple of bits to get but wanted to wait for Black Friday
I had my daughter a ring for her birthday and it came inside a clear bag inside the white box & then a Pandora bag inside the package too. So will look just like they do when you purchase from the store Smile

@recklessgran I'd say Victoria's Secret body spray for a mid teen girl

IggyAce · 01/11/2020 14:54

@ThatScottishGirl Mrs snowballs have never stained our bath unlike some of the Lush ones.

RaggieDolls · 01/11/2020 14:56

Thanks @stressbucket1. I've just ordered Mario Kart using your code.

I just need the Switch to go with it now! I am assuming £279 is just the price, it is unlikely to be discounted and it might be as well to get it now as stock levels seem good.

I am also looking for an iPad and again it seems unlikely there will be deals and it look as though there are stock problems - Apple say they won't dispatch the one I want until December....?

Ewock · 01/11/2020 15:22

Hi can anyone recommend some decent priced dressing up costumes. My dd has asked for some princess dresses like Snow white and Cinderella. Thanks

17caterpillars1mouse · 01/11/2020 15:32

@ewock sainsburies have dressing up outfits for around £15, or less when it's save 25%. They are decent quality. Dd4 is getting rapunzel this year but we have a few others. The snow white one is really nice

sugarplumfairy2010 · 01/11/2020 15:34

Sainsbury tu are really nice and half the price of the Disney store. Shame you have just missed the 25% offer. Tkmaxx are also lovely but arent Disney princesses @ewock

lexloofah · 01/11/2020 15:39

@ThatScottishGirl no staining here and we had the skull and eyeball ones. I am going to get the North Pole coal for DS the way he is behaving today, very confident it won't stain him or the bath

SpamIAm · 01/11/2020 15:40

Any matalan codes..? I've accidentally filled my basket with £60 worth of Christmas clothes...

Typical isn't it. She went right off dressing up and has now decided that she loves dressing up buther costumes are a little small
AlpacaRabbit · 01/11/2020 15:43

Anna Jones Cookbook. £6.49

Thread 16 - the one with slick willies
SpamIAm · 01/11/2020 15:46

Just scrolled back, one of woodwaj's matalan codes was still available. I've used the £10 off. Thanks @woodwaj !

17caterpillars1mouse · 01/11/2020 15:49

Has anybody seen any Paddington bear clothes / pj's for a small 2 year old. Found a lovely lady who shirt on character.com but they don't have the right size. Dd2 is currently obsessed with Paddington

dramalamma · 01/11/2020 16:07

@ewok - I third, fourth whatever the reconmendation for sainsburys tu costumes - you've missed the 25% off but there were still quite a few in the 50% off sale a couple of days ago and if they don't have them, try Argos for the same (sometimes better) price but different stock levels.

woodwaj · 01/11/2020 16:21

Glad to help! @SpamIAm
