If you’re posting anything specifically for me please do @ me or I may not spot it. It’s helpful if when sharing bargain info you bold it to make it easy for people to differentiate between chat and bargain links.

Second message has a few links and info which I’ll slowly build up, let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to add to it

Help please. I'd love to buy my mum a spa voucher for Christmas but she's quite anxious about covid, being early 70s and doesn't want to go to am actual spa. I've bought my dad theatre tickets for the spring and would love to get her a spa related experience but the whole thing of being indoors with other people is too much for her. Budget £50. Any ideas?

@Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting could you make her a pamper at home hamper or you can get beauticians to come to you

@Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting do you have a lido spa nearby? We're lucky to have one and it's all open air so very low risk (minus the sauna obviously!)

@Amazonmulu I was in my local matalan last week and they had Woolley jumpers in and some kids parkas.

@Whydidimarryhim Wonderbly do nice personalised books

@Reastiedo you think the thread should be stripped back a bit to no have gift idea requests and recommendations but just the bargains?

do you think

Do you @SpottyBumPony? I don't. Sometimes the chat ends in bargains and ideas for them.

I wouldn't have found the beer making kit if I hadn't been checking out snaffling pig

Wonderbly currently have £8 off all books/ orders. You can also get £10 off using referral code- but not sure if the 2 would stack….

Hello! Joining a tad later this year. With Xmas + autumn and Jan birthdays these threads are invaluable. Thanks so much to @Reastie and all who contribute.

I like the mix of bargains, ideas and chat. Makes it all cosy. Bolding bargains definitely helps those to stand out amongst the chat.

Sorry, no bargains to add yet.

Was there a code for we print balls? The size 3 football is back in so I'm keen to grab it

@Whydidimarryhim was it the Silver Balloon one? The lyrics ring a bell. I'm sure my, now teenage, son had the same one as a wee one. It was a gift from someone.

For those looking for barbie deals the SUV is on a deal at amazon for £45 due in at the end of the month

Hello lovely people. I've been on holiday, how is everyone?

Does anyone know if the Spicery ever do sales or is it just the preorder stuff there's a discount on?

We’ve discussed this before and consensus was that gift idea requests were generally liked as there were resulting ideas and links that were often useful for others. Happy to go with the general opinion and I guess if it became all requests and no bargains then it wouldn’t be much of a bargain thread. Putting bargain info and links in bold does help make them stand out to make it easier to see the chat from the juicy links.

[quote spudsuliked]@Artdecolover long shot but if you know anybody in the states target there have really nice quality my hero acamdemia t shirts, sweatshirts and jogging bottoms. I bought a hoody through Amazon but the quality is awful so will send back. My dh is American so we had family send these instead, not sure if target send internationally but even with postage and customs it would be cheaper than the ones I could find here which aren't as nice...[/quote]
Thanks @spudsuliked, my sister lives in USA and DS is a big MHA fan so I've just sent the info on to her so she too can choose to start her Christmas shopping early!

Thanks also to PP who posted about the Typo 'oodies', bought one of those for DS too.

From memory they have a sale in October and the referral code can be used too.

@Notlongnow1

There are some lovely Scribbles that matter bullet journals in limited time deals on Amazon. There is a promotion available on them giving you a free set of 24 watercolour brush pens (worth almost as much as the journal). I bought A5 Dotted Journal (160gsm) by Scribbles That Matter - Bullet Dot Grid Notebook - Ultra Thick Premium Paper For No Bleed Through - Hardcover Vegan Leather Notebook - Pro Version - Sky Blue [[https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0756R2BPG/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_dl_ZCBYQTV6B18F2EPKJBZX?psc=1&_encoding=UTF8&tag=mumsnetforu03-21 this one) for my own stocking but if you search "Scribbles that matter" there are some other sizes and designs.

Thank you @Notlongnow1, that's a lovely gift for my DD.

@IggyAce that's great thank you

And if anyone has a Spicery referral code if love to use it please!

I don't mind the gift idea requests but I get annoyed when people ask for previously shared links, just scroll back!! 🙊

Also when people respond with good info about previous posts without quoting so I don't know which bargain they are on about

Thanks you! That was it :)

I won't be impressed if the two random soaps I ordered from Holland and Barrett to get free postage arrive without the beauty boxes 😂

Apologies if this has already been mentioned but if anyone has been considering the OMG Remix at the extortionate price of £139, the Entertainer is currently selling for 50% off at £69.99 (it's DDs main present).
