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

Here’s Barbarara’s instructions from last year on doing clicky links:

Open double square brackets
No space
Paste link
Space
Name of link
No space
Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

If any link doesn’t work or you want to add something please let me know by @ing me Thanks

I don't suppose anyone knows of somewhere I can buy Fazer chocolate in the UK? Ideally at rock bottom prices, either the chocolate bars, Mints or Mariannes, I've found them on Amazon but they're crazy money. Thanks.

@Fuckingfuckssake Ebay but again not that cheap!

CeeceeBloomingdale · 20/12/2020 21:13

@Fuckingfuckssake Oh and occasionally in Lakeland if you mean in a physical store.

Fuckingfuckssake · 20/12/2020 21:57

Thank you @CeeceeBloomingdale I was hoping I'd missed something bargainous somewhere along the way.

@TwnklTwnklLittleStarfighter

Thanks so much you have convinced me!! I'm also keen to try the lindor lindt balls as they are my Christmas fave and I have plenty!

@Hellofayearsofar, maybe look at Niwaki? Not sure you'll get before Christmas though sadly.

Something with a high wool content, particularly sheepskin lined normally self clean a bit. There's a new thread linked above, you may get more help there 😊
