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.

I really like the idea of an advent box @Kollamoolitumarellipawkyrollo to get them in the festive mood!

Not for Christmas but can somebody link this £22 little tikes slide please? I’ve tried googling it to no avail! DD (almost 3) has well and truly outgrown the little one we got in Argos’ 2 for £25 offer during lockdown!

@Thegirlhasnoname

I assumed it’s this one

It’s expensive in a lot of places at the moment but that’s probably due to poor stock availability

I got the blue and green version a couple of years ago for about £20

Little Tykes Slide

@Thegirlhasnoname but you normally find them on FB marketplace for a tenner

Thank you 😁 found one on marketplace for £5 with a bit of sun bleaching but not precious about that. Thank you again 😁

I am loving this thread again this year, getting some really good ideas. Hoping I can find some bargains to add soon

Not sure who asked about Diabetic chocolate, but we but Nick's off Amazon for our son. (Type 1) Defo not cheap but tasty and keeps his bloods in range as uses natural sweetener.

Thank you for Blokus link too, I was gutted to miss it last time.

I'm after a decent trampoline, but thinking we might be better waiting until the end if the summer for sales?

Is there still a thread for anyone offering their unwanted vodaphone rewards at all?

@Methenyouplus4 that was me looking for the diabetic chocolate! I’ll take a look at that also!

Willow- chocolate typically labelled 'diabetic' is gross and we were told by the hospital to avoid as often full of crap and has a strong laxative effect.

Unless they consciously do lower carb, I imagine they would just eat normal chocolate. Are they T1 or T2?

Another word of warning re diabetic chocolate. The laxative effects are not to be underestimated (personal experience!).

Good quality dark chocolate (70% and upwards) is your best bet.

@Methenyouplus4 @greyinganddecaying hes type one so I’ve been looking at the hotel chocolat 70%+ range online
