I'm after a nice blanket for a friend who is having regular hospital treatments in a recliner chair, she has a drip in one arm and blood pressure monitor on the other so oodies etc aren't suitable

Ideally a darkish colour and easy to wash, not too bulky to carry but nice and snuggly to bring a bit of comfort

Thanks

Bloody hell, you lot are a bad influence...I seem to have purchased a Nutcracker runner! 🙈🤣

Me too! 🙈

But to be fair I was eyeing it up last year but it was constantly out of stock.

Don't think we can have our tree out this year with a very curious (and grabby) toddler so looking for ways to Christmas the house that can't be pulled over!

Also noticed they have the Nutcracker rug in pink but not in stock yet.

Does anyone know when Dunelm has there 20% offer?

I'm a sheep, went to look at the nutcracker runners and have now seen that I need ALL of the Christmas bedding!

This shop have some nice Christmas tees for £5. They also have lots of other personalised children's tees for £5.

I got a ‘Waltons pompom trim blanket’ in mulberry/mauve/aubergine colour from a random garden centre in wales! It’s lovely and soft, washes fantastically well and dries quickly. I paid £25 but it’s Here for £22.50.

@superstar84 I bought a wrap in m and s similar to this www.marksandspencer.com/woven-tassel-poncho/p/clp60506388?intid=mobile_app_pdp_share to take to chemo treatments last winter rather than take a blanket - I saw loads in tkmaxx as well

@superstar84 I bought this a few years ago for my aunt and it was lovely.

Hey folks, don’t forget it’s Super Seconds Saturday today for crafty bargains! I’ve got my eye on Robin’s Bobbins for some things for the dressing up box - we’ve had things from her before and they’re fab www.supersecondssaturday.co.uk/

@RainbowPhilosophy the aldi hampers are online if any of them would be suitable? Usually really good value for money and get great reviews!

Also just to say there's still a sale on for red letter days, and 12.something % cash back with Quidco! Have added my referral code on the referral thread, buts it a a nice way to get some money back and make it more of a bargain!

Argos have the Barbie estate house, which includes 3 dolls, at half price. £67.50 down from £135!

@Homerenonovice
Coffee pod advent calendars. Nespresso do one every year for around£30 available from the Nespresso site. They looked lovely last year and had a great variety in.
Sainsbury's did a Nespresso compatible pod advent last year. It was £7 then went down to £3.50 in late November.

I ventured out to my local Claire's accessories and there sales/offers were rubbish! Jealous of the bargains everyone is getting from there.

@gaggiagirl thank you, I’ll check them out. Don’t drink coffee myself so have no clue.

Please can people link to the original comments or when thanking for an idea? Makes it so much easier than searching for the original link or shop!

@MarshmallowsOnToast how about getting a wall hanging felt tree for your toddler the did them in Hobbeycraft last year and they come with a selection of felt decorations. Might mean they leave the main tree alone. I was lucky my dcs didn’t bother touching the tree they used to be transfixed by the lights.

To anyone searching for a colin advent calender Ocado seem to have them? It might be worth a check if you can put a shopping order together with them

@recklessgran studio have some; theres a few Xmas ones but I found these and there might be others:

My Turtle Doves order arrived today, I requested wrist warmers to match the beanie I order and then I was also offered a neck warmer for £19, which i took, was supposed to be a gift but I'm so happy with them that I'm thinking of keeping it all.

Cyberjammies have an eBay shop which is worth looking at.
I got my daughter and full set and I just got a top which is the same and I wear with plain bottoms

Watch out for an email from hotel chocolat; they’re doing a new £25 a month subscription service and sent me a code to try it for £10 delivered.

It looks one use and I’m going to use it also you will need to remember to cancel but it looks worth it for some stocking fillers or just nice chocolate, you can pick mixed, mellow, dark etc packs

@homerenonovice check what machine they have, nespresso have 2 types of pods - 1 (the original) you can buy from supermarkets, amazon and nespresso, 1 (the vertuo) you can only get pods from nespresso.
Then there are tassimos etc

@homerenonovice I've just seen you're actual post 🤦‍♀️ and that it's your DH with a nespresso. Check his machine and what pods he has. Nespresso calendar is released in 5 or 6 days, there is a countdown on their websits

If anyone knows of an H&M code I’d be very grateful. I’ve been waiting for weeks with no sign of an offer - they used to email regularly with offers when I didn’t need anything and now that I do...
