Just got the BOGOFF on the cold towels, thought I'd missed it so thanks to the poster who re-posted!

IggyAce · 09/09/2021 18:03

@Haveyoubrushedyourteeth thank you, yes that’s a great price. I’m doing my teen dd a diy advent calendar and one of those will be perfect. I would have got them for the Christmas Eve box but ds isn’t keen on hot chocolate.

You can get an OK! Beauty box apparently worth £80 for just £2.99 p+p
Sign up and then cancel subscription.

I'm doubtful about the £80 worth but thought it was worth a go for 3 quid.

@WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks I’m the same. Heard bugger all for my £10 box

Theimpossiblegirl · 09/09/2021 18:33

Thanks @Feelingpoorlysick
I've ordered one in my name and one in DHs for the beauty advents I'm putting together. Must remember to cancel when they arrive.

ButtonMoonLoon · 09/09/2021 18:34

Has anyone seen a Sodastream offer, or is it worth waiting for Black Friday?

HoHoJ0 · 09/09/2021 18:52

@ButtonMoonLoon I just deleted an email from Lakeland about Sodastreams! 20% off sodastreams

Whydidimarryhim · 09/09/2021 19:02

Thanks feelinglypoorly- have just ordered this - it’s gone to £4.99 now. 😀

Jumpingintosummer · 09/09/2021 19:06

@dizzygirl1 direct from Aston Martin is currently the best value. If he is a big fan this seasons polo is down to £33 - a genuine bargain!

lonelyghost · 09/09/2021 19:12

Oodie * BOGOF* it looks like. Particular designs but seems to be 2 for £84 might be a bargain if they really do usually go for £80 odd?

I bought the wrong cinnamon buns - doh!

lonelyghost · 09/09/2021 19:13

Sorry clicky link failure!

Fuckingfuckssake · 09/09/2021 19:13

@WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks I ordered last Thursday evening too, £10 boxes, I'll let you know if they materialise.

SpamIAm · 09/09/2021 19:25

@AlvinSimonTheo the fake uno cards last year were from OnBuy I think, not bargain max?

I'm getting serious M&S envy 😂

Feelingpoorlysick · 09/09/2021 19:31

@Theimpossiblegirl

You can cancel now, I have 🙂
yoshiblue · 09/09/2021 19:34

@BadgerFace where were your books from?

AlvinSimonTheo · 09/09/2021 19:38

Yes @SpamIAm they were Blush sorry bargain max!

AnotherOne4 · 09/09/2021 19:39

@WhereTheresAHill

Quite a few Christmassy chocolates on offer with a clubcard in Tesco for teen/grown up stockings if you can resist them long enough (I have to put them out of reach in the loft)
Just doing my online shop at Tesco, and thought I'd get some of these. But I can't find them Sad only one they have is the Areo Bliss Mint.
Haveyoubrushedyourteeth · 09/09/2021 19:41

@iggyAce they do percy pig chocolate coins too if your dd might like those, I grabbed some for my 16 year old, she loves bits like that. You've maybe bought a calendar to fill already, but if not IKEA do a set of advent paper bags with number stickers that I did my teens calendars with last year. It made my life so much easier knowing I wasn't restricted to tiny things.

VolcanicProtectorMan · 09/09/2021 19:42

@yoshiblue was literally just typing your comment. I must’ve missed the book post! Spill @BadgerFace! Grin

RJnomore1 · 09/09/2021 19:43

Back from marks with two colin stirrers, two shortbread houses, some xmassy crisps and a sloe fizz. The tea ones are not in my local yet but I’ll keep an eye out.

RJnomore1 · 09/09/2021 19:44

Oh they had the Percy coins! I’ll get them later though hopefully

BadgerFace · 09/09/2021 19:46

@yoshiblue @VolcanicProtectorMan one of the kind posters recommended here: bookclub.66books.co.uk/

I even bought myself a book along with the kids ones!! Lots of classics I was after for DD8 which I liked as a child (Animals of Farthingwood, Secret Garden etc). Really pleased!

Daisy829 · 09/09/2021 19:49

My DD has just sent me a message saying we need to get her dad a Colin the caterpillar advent calendar. Guess I’m back to M&S tomorrow but I’ll try a different one. Fingers crossed. I’d also like the stirrers

Did anyone find the bargain hampers in home bargains yet? Might check out mine tomorrow.
