Thread 20 - the one with the reminder to put the bargain info *in bold*

999 replies

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

@whitetilesmurf

Quick Q, do 14 year old girls like Benefit make up?
I was looking for a 14 year old yesterday My Dd when she was 14 (Now 25) but never really ended up using it as despite the packaging it is quite a grown up make up for a full on look. The way they do sets means that at least 1 item isn't suitable.

I am going for an urban decay palette I think but if anyone can suggest a better teen brand.

FluffyFluffMonster · 16/11/2020 07:44

Morphe is really on trend right now for teenagers

keeganface · 16/11/2020 07:49

Does anyone have any codes for M&S? Got a basket full and hate to pay full price.

PinkDaydreams · 16/11/2020 07:50

@JoanneCofton I saw T2 tea bags in tk maxx (back when we are allowed out!). I was gutted as I'd bought loads of tea online and then saw majority of it in tk maxx alot cheaper!

PinkDaydreams · 16/11/2020 07:51

Were allowed out not are Confused

dancemom · 16/11/2020 07:54

@whitetilesmurf my dd loves Benefit

IggyAce · 16/11/2020 07:58

My dd 14 got the benefit cracker with mascara, tint and brow gel she loves it. She also loves Morphe pallets.

MsMiaWallace · 16/11/2020 07:58

Thanks for the new thread x

Carolwithane · 16/11/2020 07:59

Sorry if this has been asked before but I'm not so patiently waiting for 20% off M&S, does anyone know if there will be one before Christmas? Smile

edwardrocks · 16/11/2020 08:15

Hi. I am really struggling to get hold of a PS4. Never bought anything like this before so didn't realise it would be a problem. Does anyone have any tips please?

Twilightstarbright · 16/11/2020 08:20

@whitetilesmurf does she regularly wear make up? I think some of the benefit products are quite good for beginner/light make up- high beam, benetint, dandelion are all subtle.

Twilightstarbright · 16/11/2020 08:21

I wear benefit quite a lot and there's a range of stuff from full on make up but those are good starter bits IMO.

Wiifitmama · 16/11/2020 08:21

I have a strange one I need help with! My 12 year old (boy) has asked for an umbrella! I want a funky one but also one that will actually not be flimsy and break. I need it to be the foldable kind as we have no car and are on public transport so he need to fit it in his back pack. Amazon is overwhelming with options!

ASkyPaintedGold · 16/11/2020 08:24

@Jacopone Have you tried Dorothy? Really interesting posters with particular themes - they look gorgeous too, from a graphic design point of view. We've got the games one, it's fabulous!

I haven't generally had problems with iwoot. It can take a little while to come

whitetilesmurf · 16/11/2020 08:30

Thanks. It’s a token gift and Benefit are on QVC where I can also get £10 off.

Mrsmadevans · 16/11/2020 08:31

@Jacopone

Morning, I have received last minute request for a good quality poster. Ideally, pop art theme, or quirky art or something unusual, or beautiful. Can’t explain better. I’ve checked Tate, other museums, amazon, Habitat - nothing really exactly right. Years ago, I bought some art print from an East London gallery (a cat with a shadow of a mouse) but cannot find them online any more. Can someone possibly help?
www.etsy.com/uk/shop/TheArtofDanialRyan Very quirky 😃
winewolfhowls · 16/11/2020 08:57

Wiifitmama, I love that you have been asked for an umbrella, so sweet! Have you seen the colour changing ones, they are all over the place and look cool.

ClaraTheImpossibleGirl · 16/11/2020 09:04

Poundtoy have 40% off everything in their pre-Black Friday clearance here

@JoanneCofton @recklessgran @AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings - Bettys often do free delivery as a Black Friday deal, if you can wait for that? I love Bettys and am trying to justify an order from there for myself Blush

Thehollyandtheirony · 16/11/2020 09:05

@Jacopone what about a David Shrigley poster? I’ve never used this site but they seem to have quite a few to choose from.

That's a brilliant hot tip. Thank you!

I was gutted when I filled my basket, went to order and saw how expensive it was to post. Couldn't make myself do it.
