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

@makingmiracles I had also been in a queue for Tesco since 7am but just went on the website through private/incognito browsing and got straight in! Unfortunately all slots from Monday onwards already booked for me but hopefully will work for you

WhereTheresAHill · 13/11/2020 10:18

@LazyDaisy22 it might be worth trying that technique again next Friday when they release more slots for Christmas week

Onesmallstep67 · 13/11/2020 10:20

@makingmiracles, my Typo stuff arrived this morning. ( all great quality, well packaged). I ordered on Tuesday night, got confirmation emails and others subsequently including one about my scheduled delivery.
I would try to make contact with them if I was you.

LazyDaisy22 · 13/11/2020 10:20

Thank you @WhereTheresAHill - I didn’t realise they were releasing more slots! Will definitely give it a try

Vodafone code for chocs

Birdladybird · 13/11/2020 10:25

I'd love a vodaphone code please. My daughter is dairy free and they would be fab in her stocking. Grin

uniqlo · 13/11/2020 10:25

Would love a vodafone code if anyone has one they aren't going to use please!

IveBeenGood · 13/11/2020 10:31

@Bananasplease I’m still on the old thread, but saw your ask for weird socks! Not sure if these fit the bill, but you can personalise with your own face...

I’ve not bought from here but had come across this type of thing when looking for something else.

@SomethingInTheWaySheCooks

DillieDolly if you are on an iPad, it might be worth trying on a phone or computer. I found my iPad connection took a bit longer.
Thanks! I was queuing on both the app and the website on my phone but got in straight away on my iPad! Annoyingly all the good slots were gone but at least I got something
Chailatte20 · 13/11/2020 10:50

I've een following these threads for years under different names. Just to say the next version of the oodie is very plush and good quality and generously sized. Someone mentioned it on here so I ordered it for my dd. I got the 11 to 13 and it's huge, would fit a petit 5"t size 10 woman.

Ruralretreating · 13/11/2020 10:51

Still on the look out for a Vodafone code if anyone still has one please.

CeeceeBloomingdale · 13/11/2020 10:52

My Neom candles have just arrived and are gorgeous, thanks for the heads up. I used a referral code off the thread but can’t remember who it belonged to now.

Has anyone got any recommendations for naice chutneys and preserves. I’m erring towards Fortnum and Mason but happy to support small businesses if anyone had any inspiration.

piggychicken · 13/11/2020 10:53

Would also love a Vodafone code here! Whole vegan family so would work a treat for stockings.

mummabear74 · 13/11/2020 10:53

Fatface have 20% off bags, purses and boots today. I've just purchased a leather bag on my Christmas list.

Elphaba17 · 13/11/2020 11:04

Could I please have a Vodafone code if anyone wont be using theirs? Haven't heard of this brand before but love the look of their Christmas selections for DS who is dairy free, and would be nice to be able to try some of it first.

Memo7 · 13/11/2020 11:04

I’d be so grateful if anyone has a m&s discount code going spare 🙏
25% off all f&f clothing starts today I believe (for clubcard holders)

WhereTheresAHill · 13/11/2020 11:07

@LazyDaisy22 today was for delivery savers and then next Friday is non delivery saver customers, I’m just guessing but surely they must hold some slots back for those customers too?

Friedbanana · 13/11/2020 11:07

wondering if there should be a separate thread for vodaphone codes to save people having to scroll through? :)

WeAreTheWeirdosMister · 13/11/2020 11:10

I'd also love a vodaphone code if anyone has a spare - although that would mean someone passing on their own free chocolate, so I know it's a longshot

VividImagination · 13/11/2020 11:10

I would also love a Vodafone code if anyone has a spare one.

Asj0405 · 13/11/2020 11:13

Does anyone know of any codes or have a student discount for matalan?

Martinisarebetterdirty · 13/11/2020 11:15

flash 50% cash back at Matalan with quidco just had an email

SingaporeSlinky · 13/11/2020 11:29

Good idea, saves pages and pages of requests for codes every Friday.
boobybum · 13/11/2020 11:34

20% off a minimum £25 spend at Holland & Barrett using code EARLY20

littlestpogo · 13/11/2020 11:35

Hi everyone

Just wanted to ask if anyone has happened to see any boys pyjamas with either dolphins or whales (definitely not sharks)?

I’ve been hunting for ages and can’t find any. It’s for DS (6). I did see some anorak orca ones but none in his size and there are some Hatley Xmas ones which I may have to default to but ideally didn’t want Xmas.

Sorry it’s a strange ask I know!
