hi @Sallyrush I have a referral code that gives you £5 off £25 (and gives me £5 in credit too. I will put it on the referral thread in case you'd like it
Maranello · 05/10/2021 10:28

@Sallyrush it would help if I said which site, wouldn't it!
It's Look Fantastic.
I've popped a referral link on the thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/Christmas/4082149-Bargain-referral-thread-3

This advert for 15% off Tonies popped up on my Instagram.

I can’t vouch for the website as never used it but thought it might be useful for others.

Out of interest, what age children are you buying them for?

@lolarabbit not sure if it fits what you’re after but my then 4.5 year old loved the Julia Donaldson cookbooks last year, she has the gruffalo one and the room on the broom one and they’re lovely.

EvilHerbivore · 05/10/2021 10:36

I bought the £5.99 wine offer and it's just arrived - not bad!
Off to cancel now though!

@DearMrDilkington

Has anyone ever bought one of those build your own den kits that The Works sell? I'm debating getting one as a joint gift for dc but struggling to work out if it's any good or a waste of money..
We have it and my kids love it. I bought a second set so they could make larger dens. Gave them an old sheet that they use to put over it. All I would say is remind them to push the poles in holding near the end otherwise the poles can bend.

Any recommendations for vegan chocolates under £5?

I usually give the neighbours some chocolates & Prosecco for Christmas but they've become vegans this summer

I've got a Yankee Christmas candle for them and thought a small box of vegan chocolates

DillieDoily · 05/10/2021 10:57

@superstar84 I've bought vegan friends various chocolates from M&S - vegan salted caramels, Belgian truffles etc and they've always been well received and only £4-5. Most plain dark chocolate is vegan too- Green & Blacks etc

Thanks so much for the Tokyo Laundry deal on 3 jumpers for £24.99

3 jumpers bought and a 3 pack of co ordinating t shirts(£12.99) = 3 pressies sorted for nephews!

As total before discount was over £50 ingitvfeee delivery.

For an added 🍒 on topcashback has 3.3% - every little helps

I’ve popped my topcashback link in the referal thread - honestly can’t recommend enough over the last few months I’ve earned hundreds (shopping broadband and car insurance) which is now funding my Christmas shopping!

Hello, all! Hope someone can recommend me a great children's audiobook on CD for DS, 7, who has an old-school stereo in bedroom.
We bought him the BBC version of Wind in the Willows, and he absolutely loves it (plays it everyday........) so would love some more good-quality productions, but everything seems to be on audible nowadays.

Amazon has a few cheap stocking fillers etc Christmas joke book for £2
Chelsea (Barbie) career doll for £6.74

Has anyone seen any cheap Top Model activity books? A PP found them reduced in Dobbies but they were still scanning at full price at my local Dobbies yesterday

RunningKatie · 05/10/2021 11:10

If anyone is looking for Primark Oodies, Meadowhall has the minion, minnie mouse, snoopy and a pink and cream one.
Everything was in the ladies and kids sections, except Snoopy which was just downstairs.
I'm holding out for some of the other designs.

Sallyrush · 05/10/2021 11:11

@ Maranello. Thank you ever so much but they don’t have what I’m looking for 😬

Picklesbaby · 05/10/2021 11:16

Just caught up with the thread.

Another one with two den building kits here. One isn’t enough.

ZIGGY on the previous thread was asking about vegan hot choc. Not hot choc but I bought the vegan version of Horlicks purely because it was cheaper than the non vegan one and it tastes good and you can make it in the velvetiser.

Changingagain · 05/10/2021 11:18

@DillieDoily thank you. We have a pile of Christmas books that come out with the decorations each year and I know ds6 is going to have outgrown most of them this year. He loves joke books though so that will be a great addition though I'm sure I'll be sick of hearing them before the tree is up

Thanks Mog! I'm soon to be the proud owner of some turtle dove gloves. 25% off was too good an offer to resist!
