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

Thought I’d do a ‘how to’ for a couple of things people often post about not being sure of

To do click links you do this put link in here then a space then the name or phrase you want to go with the link . Don’t put a space between the start of the link or the last word next to the like I have or it won’t work but I had to to demonstrate.

Some top tips from thelegohooverer:

My tips are:
check out companies on trustpilot before ordering
be wary of companies that only have email/contact firms for customer services and no phone numbers or addresses (unless of course you enjoy meaningless replies from bots)
keep a list of what you’ve ordered so you can follow up if something doesn’t arrive. Sometimes it’s a numbers game where they’re betting on people not following up on missing orders.
check where things are shipped from, particularly if you need them quickly. I’ve got caught out waiting for the slow boat from China when I thought I was ordering locally.
I’ve started using Revolut to avoid putting in my main bank details (and it helps me budget)

Aliexpress have lots of stuff very cheap, order early as it’s all delivered from China here . Be aware some items are a bit knock off in quality and safety, check reviews and be aware. Clothes can come up v small and take the photos with a pinch of salt as a guide for what you will get.

Hi

Thread 12 already!

@Reastie helllooooo

I can't keep up with these threads - keep adding them to watch then finding they have expired 😂 love lurking on here for inspiration thanks all!

Wow that one came round quick thanks @Reastie

Thanks Reastie 💐 🎄 💐

Thanks so much for these threads. Am fairly new to MN, and it's a revelation! Just amazing friendliness and generosity! Im spending a small fortune, but loving it!

Thanks @Reastie and I agree these threads are moving fast. What was our total last year?
My little eco shop just sent me an email offering a free shampoo bar you just need to pay postage (£3.99). CODE: TRYFORFREE I don’t think it’s valid for them all as it didn’t work on the rose quartz one.

Well thanks to this thread I am now finished for dd minus a pair of binoculars she has asked for?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Now to start Ds, will be 18 months at Xmas and I’m a bit unstuck if anyone had any ideas. He’s quite young for his age though

Can't believe we are on thread 12 already, at this rate we will hit 25 by black friday!

Oooo, I (kind of) made it to a thread title 😆 Thanks @Reastie for the new post.

Thanks @reastie! I am three quarters done thanks to these threads!

@Vebrithien

Last year, the Yankee Bundles website had them for £10 for a large jar (with free P&P). I also saw the large jars in two Yankee Candle Outlet stores, for £10 as well. May be worth a look?

Thank you so much. Can't see them on the Yankee Bundles website at all just now, but will keep checking. Will also need to check where our nearest outlet store is.

@Picklesbaby what about something like a scuttlebug? smyths have them for £19.99

Talking of F bags.....posted this on the end of the previous thread, but figured on the end of a thread it might get missed so I'd repost here, as offer only on until midnight -

For those loving the Fiorelli sale, check out the official Fiorelli ebay page......the prices appear the same as on the website (after the 20% off on the website) but you don't have to spend £40 for free postage, and today only if you use the code FALL20 you get an extra 20% off!

I'm ordering this bag - £46 on Fiorelli website, so with 20% off code it'll be £36.80, but on ebay its already £36.80, so with the 20% off code its down to £29.44 plus its free postage.

I'm loving these threads. Thank you all so much everyone, I'm more then half way through my shopping with the plan to get it all done (minus perhaps DH) before 1st Nov.

Does anyone have an Adidas code please. I want to buy some winter boots but they are £110. (Joint Crimbo and Birthday)

I couldn't get the MYVOUCHERCODES15 code to work on the entertainer :(

Just posted as new thread came up…

Today 19:57 Jumpingintochristmas

Sorry not had time to catch up today but ASOS have 25% off everything tomorrow for members - ie. if you have their under £10 a year delivery plan. If you don’t have it but plan to spend over £100 get it tonight to benefit.
I find it so handy for little orders throughout the year - no need to pop into boots for a nail polish etc.
