Thanks @GoblinDaughter for the title

It’s nearly December, Father Christmas is busy putting the final touches to his toys on the workshop and we are busy elves preparing for a somewhat different Christmas this year.

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

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.

pogo stick my kids approve.

Has anyone heard any more on the Molton Brown vouchers?

TheSilentStars · 30/11/2020 17:35

@IggyAce, that's reminded me of going with my nan to have lunch there after spending my birthday money Smile

Fuckingfuckssake · 30/11/2020 17:38

@TheLastStarfighter oh they're OOS now! They're called gingerbread mug huggers, we have 2 Home Bargains and I've been in them both every week and never seen them in there.

No problem. Now I know what they are called I can stalk the website more effectively Smile

Lolly12 · 30/11/2020 17:51

@BigBadBox that looks perfect! Thank you.

I’m also on the lookout for any Molton Brown vouchers/free delivery as late to the party this year.

IggyAce · 30/11/2020 17:52

I got the cookie cutter to make those mug hugger houses a few threads back my first attempt at the weekend was not a success. Will try a different gingerbread recipe at the weekend.

TheLastStarfighter · 30/11/2020 17:53

I’m too lazy to make them Grin

kingat · 30/11/2020 18:01

Hello, would anyone have a code for very for free delivery please?

SadderThanEeyore · 30/11/2020 18:04

Can anyone recommend some good quality hot chocolate brands please? Make the most of my milk frother 😬

PostPopper · 30/11/2020 18:05

On another Christmas thread, someone mentioned electric diffusers. Anyone have any bargainous recommendations?

NoWordForFluffy · 30/11/2020 18:08

Those mug huggers are very cute! I may have a go at making some.

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 30/11/2020 18:14

@CoffeethenCrochet I've got an almost 10 year old DD who would be ecstatic to get vouchers for Claire's.....
easy to post, and they're online so could be used even if shops are closed

I think there was a thread recently just for hot chocolate recommendations! That reminds me I need to find the thread myself and have a look! 😋
Ginandsonic · 30/11/2020 18:17

Thanks to those who recommended hotwires and the robot arm, we got the robot arm last year, and we have snapcircuits which looks the same as hotwires
The tech will save us site looks good, the synth set looks pretty cool!

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 30/11/2020 18:31

SadderThanEeyore · 30/11/2020 18:36

@SadderThanEeyore Knoops for the best hot choc in the land. I visited their store in Rye and was blown away. You can buy online and I think they're opening one in London too?

Zavvi have some good cyber Monday deals. Such as 50% off Funko Pop figures here with code POPVINYL and 2 kids t-shirts for £10 (most of them normally £14.99each) here
They seem to have lots of other offers too

Hello! Does anyone know any deals for mermaid barbies? I’m clueless! They’re £12 on amazon which I thought seemed expensive but have no knowledge of barbie...
Thank you!

JuiceyBetty · 30/11/2020 19:09
