@NoWordForFluffy it does seem PR misstep because no one is going to think it's a good move or improvement and there will be customers like me who chose them over another supermarket because of double up. Obviously, "reduced" is never going to beat "free"!

4thtimesthecharm · 22/09/2021 13:28

@Christmas21 @daisyboo1 I will message them now. I knew that they were very busy, and a backlog involved, so didn't want to be that customer. Really good to hear they are worth the wait. Thank you!

NoWordForFluffy · 22/09/2021 13:31

Yes, @Scout2016. Same as when they took the weekly offers from some customers without warning / reason given. That caused a backlash too.

My reductions even include things I've never bought, so why I'm getting a reduction on them I've no clue! 🤷‍♀️

Anyway. Bah humbug. 🤣

SweetPeaPods · 22/09/2021 13:33

Thanks for the mine craft Lego. That will be perfect for a few birthday parties we have coming up.

Any recommendations for giant bean bags? Ds aged 6 and 8 want some for the lounge so I don't want anything too garish.

Jumpingintosummer · 22/09/2021 13:40

Currently £1.50 in store. Got five for party bags.

I wonder if anybody can help, advise?

I'm looking for some colourful (pink, unicorn or animal maybe) seat belt pads for my nearly 3 year olds 5 point harness carseat to replace the black ones. This is due to dd1 having an older child unicorn carseat and dd2 complaining every single car journey that she doesn't like her black joie 360 carseat as it isn't pink. I'm not going to buy a new carseat anytime soon so looking to jazz up hers.

Does such a thing still exist, I feel like boots may have used to sell them years ago but no luck now?

Number109 · 22/09/2021 13:50

@17caterpillars1mouse would these work?

PaolaDiLorenzo · 22/09/2021 13:52

@RevolvingPivot
Did you tick the box to use the £10, as you had to apply the code and then tick the box.

Roughasabadgersbum · 22/09/2021 13:53

@LyraSilvertongueBelacqua

Popped to Sainsbury's and saw this Monopoly reduced to £10. Worth a look if you're in there! I checked Amazon where it was £19.64.
Hi there, I'm looking for monopoly!! Thank you for your tip, hopefully my local Sainsbury's will have it

@noscoobydoodle lovely hair bits. Thank you.

msssm · 22/09/2021 14:12

Sorry that happened to you @RevolvingPivot.

I collected my order this morning and definitely got my £10 off. I've been a c&c and home delivery customer for many years.

I'd definitely be querying it.

Just been to B&m. The one near me has loads of those sacks S, R, A and others. Unfortunately you'll need to come to Bradford 😂

There have the Carrera Mario Kart track set for £20. They also have the same but a version of paw patrol and Cars which I think is a good price tbf.
Cars

nicky2512 · 22/09/2021 14:25

@SweetPeaPods look at Lounge Pugs (Big Bertha).

noscoobydoodle · 22/09/2021 14:39

@17caterpillars1mouse- not quite the same but we had a pop in car seat insert from babipur which was lovely bright colours

I had a local crafter make me a few with a waterproof backing for when DD was being toilet trained to make it easy to clean. It went in over the seat and through the straps like a table runner if that makes sense.

torthecatlady · 22/09/2021 15:20

Has anyone got any recommendations for a weighted eye mask?

RevolvingPivot · 22/09/2021 15:59

[quote psuedocream3]@RevolvingPivot did your shop come in under £60?[/quote]
£75 then went down to £65

@Window1 Yes but I don't think they should have as I'd paid £65 and they took £75

InDreamland · 22/09/2021 16:02

Not very Christmassy but Boots have BOGOF on vitamins and supplements online today only. Just stocked up on what we all use in this house for the next 4-6 months.

RevolvingPivot · 22/09/2021 16:03

I didn't take a screen shot but I applied the code and it went down to £65 but they took £75

Those of you talking about sainsburys nectar exclusive prices- I have the nectar app but no exclusives? Is there a different app that I need to see the discounts? I'm also disappointing by the lack of double up, I've been saving my points since January for it!

DinosaurOfFire · 22/09/2021 16:12

The Disney Store has an extra 10% off sale items at the moment, with code EXTRA10

NoWordForFluffy · 22/09/2021 16:19

@DinosaurOfFire, you have to go onto the website. I'm surprised it isn't on the app really! 🙄

Haveyoubrushedyourteeth · 22/09/2021 16:22

Argos have a couple of Harry Potter 3D puzzles in their 2 for 15£ deal. We've had them before and paid far more than that.
