Argghhhh, I’m so sorry, I hope I haven’t lost you all! I was keeping a beady eye then got distracted trying to work out how to forward plan a Zoom call for work and invite someone, which should only take a few minutes but I’m incompetent and it took me far too long Blush .

@CarrotVan I hope it was the former!

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

Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

Are the gel burners on Amazon called "chafing gel"? How do they work - do you just light them like a candle?

Mummyof2 Lidl deals usually Thursdays and Sundays

My Typo order arrived, very pleased with what I got for £31.40! All good quality, only slight quibble is that the note books are soft rather than hardback, I prefer hardback, but only the Daria one is actually for me.

Im waiting to open my typo order, got dc's home as I'm waiting for covid results so I can't open any parcels until they have gone to bed. I can't remember what I ordered 🤣, lots of notebooks.

@MsMiaWallace I can't find the carrots in the special buys previews yet - have you seen anything?

Can anyone recommend an electric scooter? It’s for my DD but DH doesn’t think we should get a kiddie one. Budget is under £200

mummyof2boys30 · 12/11/2020 15:35

Thanks I will have a look this evening then and hope for the best

Animalium and other books in the same series deal of the day on Amazon today, £12.99 - they're gorgeous books!

Collected my Mrs Snowballs order and since her workshop is now opposite a home bargains store I popped in. They have some hot chocolate snowmen for £1.49 in case anyone missed the Aldi ones. They also have reindeer hot chocolate cones for £1.29. I also picked up some 2021 glasses and happy new year headband for 99p each.

Just to say that I've checked the Lidl app and it looks like the frothers are in from the 18th.

Squ1ggle · 12/11/2020 16:05

Someone mentioned that there was a 20% code on the hot chocolate shakers. Does anyone know what it is?

TheLastStarfighter · 12/11/2020 16:27

@Squ1ggle 25% off the shaker with code SHAKER
