Thanks to @friskybivalves for the title

I think we might actually make it to 25 threads!!

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

@forgotwhaticameinherefor I'm afraid someone else has nipped in first for the 2nd velvetiser. I'm so sorry.

Puffalicious · 23/11/2020 23:00

thisisexhausting I got a gorgeous, blue Le Cruset teapot in TKMaxx for a super bargainous £15! Neighbour's new kitchen will look even lovelier now!

Puffalicious · 23/11/2020 23:09

Coffeeandennui I can't believe you have 10 Oodies ordered! I thought I was bad with 6! I have pizzas, avocados and sloths coming, including one for meGrin. I'm ridiculously excited about it arriving- I'm so sad!

fogginghell · 23/11/2020 23:09

@TheCrow I see you share my obsession with home bargains GrinGrin

InDreamland · 23/11/2020 23:21

Goodness, I can't keep up with this thread it moves so fast! Not that I should really be following anymore as all my Christmas presents shopping is done but I just can't help myself, love a bargain.

Don't know if it's already been mentioned, I haven't seen it, with an the chat about Velvetisers abs hot chocolate, for the Soul Savings&utmcampaign=20201123BF20OffHCRTL&S2REF=30761324 Whittards have 20% off hot chocolate and free delivery over £20. The 20% offer is until midnight tomorrow.

Toys sale on at Piccola They sell really lovely high quality toys.

Buy one get one free on all Bibado products using code BBGFREE. I love the Bibado, saved on a lot of cleaning up DD after a messy meal. I'd say an essential when weaning.

25% off and free personalisation at Personal Creations using code MERRY25. They sell all sorts of items including cushions, mugs and Christmas stockings.

@TheLastStarfighter I saw the marshmallow snowflakes, the snowmen and the chocolate and marshmallow stirrers in my Home Bargains yesterday. In the spirit of our lovely thread I'd be very happy to go back there and get them for you and post on to you if you'd be happy to pm me your address?

JingleCatJingle · 23/11/2020 23:27

@Sneezein3s try apple refurbished

@Rockhopper81 that was me on the onesie hunt! Thank you for remembering, I'm popping on to the TU site now.

InDreamland · 23/11/2020 23:38

I've not received my Hotel Chocolat TSV yet. Got the letter from QVC saying it'll be dispatched direct from Hotel Chocolat but thought it would've been delivered by now. Ordered before it went onto advanced orders. Is anyone else still waiting?

jingleballing · 23/11/2020 23:48

Any Lakeland codes floating around that I can pinch please?

I see that the Lakeland codes have been well and truly exhausted but hopefully someone has one they're not in need of ! Many thanks SmileThanks

Rockhopper81 · 23/11/2020 23:51

@1stTimeMama - glad I hadn't totally imagined it! Hopefully they will have something that fits what you're looking for

@LutherRalph1 and @Daisy829 - I can personally vouch for the Scriballs! My mum bought them for my nephews last year (aged 5-15) and they all loved them. She also bought a Captain America one for me and I loved it too!

Asj0405 · 23/11/2020 23:55

I have a 15% off for the entertainer as well if any one would like it?

thaegumathteth · 24/11/2020 00:02

Re the oodies - I've ordered dd a penguin one ages ago before she even knew she wanted one and NOW she tells me 'please can I have an avocado oodie' no. You can bloody not!

JD SPORTS have some decent deals in their Black Friday sales

Just make sure you double check their price elsewhere as sometimes sports direct etc can be cheaper

myhobbyisouting · 24/11/2020 00:59

Scriball en route 🐑🐑🐑🐑

TheLastStarfighter · 24/11/2020 01:06

@recklessgran that is so very sweet of you. I’m hopeful I’ll be able to get to the shop at the weekend, but if not then I might take you up in that. Thank you.

Thanks for letting me know x

@Sneezein3s CeX is where I bought my refurbished iPad mini. Very impressed with it so far. I discovered it after it was recommended on here so might be the place you're thinking of

FrolickingLemon · 24/11/2020 05:22

@0ttoline

Has anyone seen a curtain of rainbow fairy lights - to hang at a window - that's going cheap? Or has anyone got a good quality one and would recommend it?
This one in Argos currently has 25% off and gets 5 star reviews.

Snack Surprise have 20% off with code BLACKFRIDAY

Snack Surprise were recommended by someone some threads back and I’d been holding out so the first box came next month (although I’m sure I could’ve emailed and asked). They deliver monthly boxes of snacks from a different country. The 20% only worked on the subscription so I’ve ordered and made a note to cancel.

IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile · 24/11/2020 05:43

There are a couple of milk frothers on Amazons daily deals today, both say can be used for hot chocolate. Also a waffle maker!

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 24/11/2020 06:25

This 10-outfit set of 18" dolls clothing is currently £19.99 on an Amazon Black Friday deal - good reviews so I've taken a punt! Suitable for Our Generation

Chocoholicmumma · 24/11/2020 06:29

@InDreamland mine hasn’t arrived yet either. I called qvc yesterday and they said because it’s coming direct from hotel chocolat they cannot track it but they could tell me it should be here by Thursday and if not to give them a ring back, they also said it’s being sent via Royal Mail so I’m gonna give it till Monday. I ordered on the 12th.

BalaamsAss · 24/11/2020 06:30

@lotusbell we’ve decided on the IceQ 15 litre one. I wanted one a little bigger than the tiny 4litre ones but not so big that it effectively becomes a fully fledged fridge Grin

The brand gets good reviews, the style will suit his room and as our budget is around the £50-£60 mark, it’s a decent price. I’d like to get it for £60 but the £64.99 current price on Amazon is the best it’s been so I’ll go with that if it doesn’t come down more this week.

@thisisexhausting check out the Avoca button tea pot It’s not particularly bargainous but it is lovely and unique. (and iconic if you know Avoca, but only really people in Ireland properly know Avoca so that’s kind of irrelevant.)

Allhallowseve · 24/11/2020 06:36

Just to say if you have a h&m members account check it as I had £6 in vouchers just sitting there .
