Christmas bargain thread 1

[Reastie]

Greetings folks, it’s that time again!

Starting a fresh for 2021, so if anyone has any specific links they’d like or think would be handy to add to the list for the next thread please do let me know.

Hope you’ve all had a better year so far than last year and here’s hoping things will be at a point for a more celebratory Christmas with friends and family (and lots of bargains) this year.

Thanks for the new thread ❤️

Homestore and more have half price on all candles and reed diffusers in store just now

So happy to be here! Yay! I am loving Etsy this year but also on the hunt for bargains.

Excellent! The first thread!

No bargains to share but the Hot Chocolate Shaker from last years thread has been fantastic - DS has used it at least 3 times a week. iIRC it was about £20 with a code
Definitely one of the best presents

Oooh I'm joining this looks like a great thread!

25% off some nice activity sets in the RNLI shop: shop.rnli.org/collections/special-offers

I found this seller on tik tok. Its handmade jewellery etc but the packaging is lovely as well as it being really reasonably priced. Might be a nice shout for those looking to shop local, you can see the packing on Instagram. I bought some studs but I'll be getting something for my sister in law for Christmas

Thanks for the Pound Toy tip! Ive bought a few stocking bits. Especially liked the giant candy canes!
They also come up on Top cash back as well saving a bit more!

Just checking in ... I manage to buy much more than I intend to every year through this thread.

Thanks for the thread @Reastie this is the first year I’ve checked in from thread 1.

I did have a tip - Liberty have done a Gift With Purchase around the start of September - spend £200 and get a gift bag with £175 ish (or something like that)

So far so £££

But if you have never bought from Liberty, you can get 10% off as a first time offer, plus topcashback, plus Liberty's own loyalty card points

So if you have a few £££ gifts like Diptyque candles (which are rarely on offer) or lovely soaps etc - you can get a small discount off them, plus cash back, plus a beauty bag full of lots stocking filler/advent calendar type bits (or just for you)

Maybe a bit niche - but worth looking at the website ahead of time to see if it's worth it for you as the GWP does sell out

Going real life shopping ALL day tomorrow...hope to have bargains to report back!

The first official thread - thank you Reastie.

Great, thanks for the thread! I'm a little late starting this year, just got a couple of those hot chocolate shakers with discount for my boys thanks to a post up thread :-)

What is a hot chocolate shaker? Thanks

Thanks reastie
Christmas shopping started for me last night with the purchase of (not current) Manchester United Jersey. We don't live in the UK or go to matches so ds won't know or mind. Looking forward to sharing / hearing offers.

Thanks Reastie!!! Checking in. Already started and semi-sorted my DD and niece both with bargain clearance sets from Luna-Skye Playmobil. DD loves Spirit and got the Lucky house for Xmas last year after it was a steal on Prime Day, so got her the Spirit Xmas bundle from Luna Skye for £30-odd and its arrived already. Very impressed with size and quantity of the bundle.

Thanks reastie. Love this thread and hoping to get some bargain this year due to mat leave.

Joining this thread, I’ve made a start, got my oodie in my basket to order next week, need to get an Xbox and a switch lite ASAP incase I can’t get them closer to Christmas

Joining too please 🧑🏼‍🎄

I've watched this each year I've been here, we are still enjoying the LEGO train reduced by about £50 last year. I have just bought a load of stocking fillers from the Scout Store for my Cub, massive reductions in the sale. Got some good outdoors clothing heavily reduced too.

Thanks Reastie, I honestly think I've got enough presents from my stash over the last couple of years to do this Christmas!! Just trying to stick to what the kids ask for from Santa as new purchases!

Great thread! I've recently bought a few things from this company for Xmas gifts (although I'm considering keeping a couple for myself!). They're really nicely packaged but if you buy as gifts make sure you message them that so items are packaged individually

Love the yearly Christmas thread! Last year I got lots mentioned and a great deal on the Nintendo Switch for my son so back again for inspiration as much as anything!
