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

@InDreamland and @Chocoholicmumma, I ordered mine on the 10th and they arrived yesterday - believe me, it's worth the wait 😁

@Daisy829 my daughter has the avocados from Amazon including the very large one and they are great, really lovely!

The pp who was waiting to order an Xbox one, it's now it of stock at Argos (for my area) curry's and very so you might want to snap one up while you still can

LutherRalph1 · 24/11/2020 07:27

@margaritasbythesea thanks for your suggestion. It's the Sensiohome square waffle maker ( I was sent a link and told "this one")
It was the same price on the sensiohome website as amazon but the sensiohome website were offering a free kg bag of waffle mix!

0ttoline · 24/11/2020 07:41

FrolickingLemon Thank you! Those Argos fairy lights would be perfect, but sadly for me they aren't available for delivery, so I think out of stock Sad

runningpink Thank you for the Amazon lights! The reviews look good so I may go for it!

Iggi999 · 24/11/2020 07:58

Why oh why has ds waited till the end of November to ask for an Xbox series s? Sad out of stock everywhere. It's (just) within my budget (unlike the series x) so would be ok with getting it for him, but not going to buy one off eBay at an inflated price!

bettyskitchen · 24/11/2020 08:06

Thank you @Salamander91!

Has anyone found any decent ear buds that are not the real iPhone ones? Looking for some under £30 - Amazon reviews don't correspond to the items they are selling so I'm cautious to buy some from there incase they are rubbish!

Typo do a set for £30 but were reduced to about £6 when they had that massive sale a few weeks back. They've still got discounts now but hot sure how big. Also can't vouch for the quality but worth a look at reviews.

Morning bargain lovers! M&S have some lovely dressing gowns, anyone know if they usually do a black Friday spesh? I managed 2 fir 1 last year, but it was in October and I've not seen anything this year. Or do I need to just pay full price (can't bear the thought 😅) x

@mrsdaz I got my son JLab ones from John Lewis. Sorry can’t link them on my phone but the 21.99 ones. They’ve lasted well and at least you get J Lewis guarantee. We bought him i12 ones last year that were discussed on here a lot but they were utter rubbish.
lotusbell · 24/11/2020 08:46

@BalaamsAss, thank you, good choice! Will watch it in case of price drop.

Restlessinthenorth · 24/11/2020 09:07

I'm still holding my nerve for a good reduction on a big Barbie item...the plane or the camper or anything similarly substantial. Has anyone seen any advertised on Black Friday deals? Would be super grateful if anyone spots one, please would you share?

LetsPlayBamboozled · 24/11/2020 09:09

Did someone mention gingerbread flavour pretzles earlier or have I got confused? They have them on Sainsbury's website.

I was actually on there looking for a gluten free gingerbread house kit if anyone has seen one in an actual shop please can you let me know? Lakeland does have one online but I'm not really £7.99 into the idea! Under a fiver might be too much to hope for though as GF so pricey.

IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile · 24/11/2020 09:09

Iggy999 I think you still have a fair chance of getting a series s before Christmas, stock levels seem much better than the x. I've seen them in stock several times on Amazon since launch.

GoblinDaughter · 24/11/2020 09:10

Need something for arsehole FiL and really have exhausted all options over the years now, last year’s weather stick was a last resort as couldn’t think of anything, can anyone help? No idea what he likes besides being a trouble making arsehole so 💁‍♀️ Not buying a gift isn’t an option either.

On a nicer note, nice dog treats? I always get a present for a friend’s dog who’s great with my daughter and daughter is equally obsessed with the dog. Last year she had the turkey dinner toys from Pets At Home but wanted to go for some nice little treats this year, but something special, any ideas? Is there anything out there that would come nicely presented, like in a cracker?

bettyskitchen · 24/11/2020 09:11

Emma Bridgewater have 20% off (almost) everything

Lovemusic33 · 24/11/2020 09:11

Feeling a bit disappointed with Black Friday so far, mainly because the things I want haven’t been in offer 🤣

I’m looking for a good deal on a big lego set for dd2 or maybe 2 medium sets. She has som much Lego already so it’s hard to find a set she hasn’t got on offer.

Theonlyoneiknow · 24/11/2020 09:15

restlessinthenorth sainsburys had barbie campers for a huge reduction but it was a couple of weeks ago (in store) I am thinking circa £30. Otherwise I am sure they will come down in price on Amazon before Christmas.

I am holding out for a Lego Technic Transporter, it dropped to £90 on Prime day but I swithered and missed it!

jingleballing · 24/11/2020 09:19

@GoblinDayghter @Giblindaughter how about a tin of very sticky toffee to keep his gob firmly shut ? Grin

Aworldofmyown · 24/11/2020 09:19

*goblindaughter" would he like something like this? lakelandsteel.uk/home-fire-pits-and-garden/metal-birds/?gclid=CjwKCAiA-_L9BRBQEiwA-bm5fgbV8qj7Pewb9NJMEuqwMsEu-D7E_O4rgfIMERDbH_OhBDeJ-eVRbBoCMagQAvD_BwE

jingleballing · 24/11/2020 09:20

@Goblindaughter wow ok I have no idea what just happened there with your name tag !
