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

@gracelessladyhottramp, I ordered from Dobbies yesterday and had emailed confirmation of my order quite quickly. Sorry.

@NaraDeer
Costco had a large range of Squishmallows for really good prices last year, I've not been in this year yet to check but may be worth checking out if possible.

Loads of bargains in the Claire’s sale, free delivery when you spend £20 as well (easily done)

Boots £10 Tuesday has a variety of things today, including sets which could go in stockings. They also have some traditional flowery Yardley perfume for £10 which might suit a great granny, or me.

MAQM60 gives 10% off if you spend £50. A couple of voucher sites said MAQM30 gives 10% off on spends over £30, but it didn’t work for me.

Joules has 25% off everything and free delivery with code YAY25

@Asj0405 thanks! Just ordered three of the kits in the Baked In sale and with your code it meant delivery was free! Hate paying delivery!

Who wanted under sea Lego sets? this one's down to £12

Sorry its not a clicky link but these look cute for tree/ table presents or even a Christmas morning treasure hunt -toget5minutespeace- beware they are small 10×15cm

Phew, the Joules spider slippers didn't discount any further with the code, it just made delivery free, so I didn't miss out by buying yesterday!

Any ideas for stocking items for older/late teen boys, it gets harder every year. I have muted the idea of stopping stockings now but my youngest still wants everyone to have one.

Older boy teen stocking ideas;
New charger cable
Bag of snacks such as snaffling pig pork scratchings.
Nice bottle of cider or beer
Bottle opener
Water bottle
Chocolate orange
Favourite hair stuff
Novelty coaster for their room.
Card case - for travel or bank card
A posher version than normal of shower gel, deodorant etc
Ho chocolate bomb
Marshmallow toasting kit
Gillette often have good offers on razors/gel on their website
Scratchcard
Wallet ninja
Key ring
Mini lego kit
After shave - Superdrug have half price offers every week so worth keeping an eye out.
Gift card - e.g. Nandos or Costa,
Designer socks or boxers
Something related to their hobby or interest e.g new football socks, sports towel.
Any driving on the horizon - highway code?
Retro sweets from their younger childhood.
Ditto Top Trumps
Emergency power bank for phone
Packet of noodles and chopsticks

Summerbreeze4 if they have any interests like sports, music etc could you do things like:

Personalised drum sticks
Personalised plectrums
Football socks
Microfibre gym towel
Water bottle
Travel cup like Contigo

Otherwise consumables like pringles, toblerone, sweets etc

Who wanted under sea Lego sets? this one's down to £12

It was me thank you. Ordered. Plus the deep sea base is reduced to £43 from £55 (sorry can’t do links it comes up on Amazon if search “Lego ocean”). So that’s one DC sorted with Lego.

Thanks for the others who responded as well - will keep eye out for a Lego trains and Lego Jurassic World offers now.

Teen stocking-
Last year I bought my teen son a sports cooling towel from Dock and Bay (though they’re available elsewhere too). He has loved it! He’ll sit with it at the back of his neck all the time, not just after sport but whenever he’s warm. He loves the cool feeling. cooling towel

[quote SewVeryLazy]@Ewock depending what sort of thing you are looking for, we got given a card game called"nuts" years ago and it is surprising fun once you get going[/quote]
Thank you that looks really good fun. There are so many games I've never seen before.

[quote NoWordForFluffy]**@endlesscraziness, I use Price runner, but I'm not sure it does alerts, you just have to search for what you want.

We had the conversation about chat last year and it was decided that we like it (in the main). I don't think we need the same conversation every year![/quote]
@endlesscraziness @NoWordForFluffy PriceRunner does have alerts that you can set so when the price drops you will receive a notification.

You can actually also check the price history on items to make sure the sales are actually good. Super useful!

Just came on to say the Lego is £12 but see it's already been posted! It's such a bargain!

@5Minions2CallMyOwn

Hi. So I joined The Entertainer on advice here with the aim to get a discount code but no luck so far! Does anyone know a code please or how else I can get one? It’s my sons birthday next week and I’d love to get him some requested things but also I love a discount lol

I’ve pm’d you a code to try but not sure if it might be specific to my account

@LostMyRubySlippers Thank you so so much!!! I’ve just used your code, it saved me £8.36!!!! AMAZING!!!!

Long shot, but does anyone have an M&S discount code please? Thank you

Thank you for the Hotel Chocolat discount codes, I’ve used them both to pre-order gifts of the giant crackers and wreaths for far-flung family members with delivery in early December.

Biscuiteers are offering £9 off any order over £30 to celebrate their birthday.

Use the code BIRTHDAYBASH9
