If you’re posting anything specifically for me please do @ me or I may not spot it. It’s helpful if when sharing bargain info you bold it to make it easy for people to differentiate between chat and bargain links.

@LittleMousewithcloggson I do exactly the same for my personalised crackers. Works a treat.

Mrsdoctordear thank you so much, really appreciated!!

I think I want an Alexa for DD. I know people on here have got them in the past. Any advice on when/where to get one? Is prime day the best option?

lonelyghost · 14/10/2021 06:40

The alexa devices are currently reduced - both 3rd and 4th generation ones. I haven't been following prices so I'm not sure how much more they would be likely to drop, but the 3rd generation one is around the same price that I paid on a deal (although it should be cheaper now, as it's an older one anyway) you could check out the 3🐫 to see if it's a good price - or someone more knowledgeable will probably be along soon!

Yeknom · 14/10/2021 07:15

Good morning everyone! So I think I've decided on a Yoto player, can I ask for those who already own them - what is the kids radio part like on it?

Also any referral codes knocking about? I feel I need to go back a couple of threads BlushConfused

mumonthehill · 14/10/2021 07:24

For those wanting a cheaper version of the velvetiser I have seen this. No idea if it a good one or not but a good deal. On sports pursuit website. www.sportpursuit.com/catalog/product/view/id/2132109

@ShrillSiren

For anyone ordering an Oodie, you can use the code MISSU30 for £30 off. I just ordered a kids one for £40 instead of £70. The current offer on the site is £25 off, so this is slightly better.
@ShrillSiren thanks. I'm still debating whether to order these ones or the Next minecraft ones or try and hold out till I can get to a primark. Aged 10 and 6. Also tempted for my nieces ages 16, 14 and 13. My DC love their dressing gowns and their onesies so not sure how much they will use them
SewVeryLazy · 14/10/2021 07:27

@Yeknom
I have PMed you a code link for 10% off I hope
The radio is mostly pop and Disney, I recognise most of it so it must be a lot of 80s and 90s music Grin mostly good though

psuedocream3 · 14/10/2021 07:41

@sweetpeapods Same here, I think for my eldest I will get her the proper Oodie, as she is the same size as me and I can 'borrow' it. For the younger ones I'll get the Next ones as they never seem to be that cold or bothered too much by the cold. Will be interesting to see the quality difference!

woodwaj · 14/10/2021 07:48

@TheCrow it was a bigger store and I would agree the Halloween section has been rubbish this year! I don't go to that one very often but if I end up back there I'll pick up another. Do you think it's worth a call to see if they'd post one?

Yeknom · 14/10/2021 07:51

Thank you @SewVeryLazy ! The radio sounds right up their street too so it's a winner! I'll log on and get the PM - MUCH APPRECIATED! xx

Cherryrainbow · 14/10/2021 07:56

I got our alexa dot during black Friday sales, worth keeping an eye out for bargains around then x

MulticolourTriangles · 14/10/2021 07:59

Amazon have the Shimmer and Sparkle Luna make up doll reduced from £9.99 to £3.50. My 6yo got one for her birthday, they'd make a decent stocking stuffer.

Yeknom · 14/10/2021 08:25

Thanks @MulticolourTriangles ordered a couple! x

Minionbums · 14/10/2021 08:45

@MulticolourTriangles I’ve had one too, thank you! There are only 8 left in stock now so if you want one, get it soon

Whydidimarryhim · 14/10/2021 08:47

Just piping up to say that not all Romanian wines are awful - there's a great white that's cheap in asda-been buying it for years for our summer party & it has mainstream appeal!

good bargain wine!

Haudyourwheesht · 14/10/2021 09:02

The Dunelm oodie thing is bloody roasting. I've had to take mine off the couple of times I've worn it so far. Will be good when it's colder and we can't afford to put the bloody heating on. It's really soft but not long though, if that's what you like.

Motherofplants · 14/10/2021 09:05

Before I buy, do kids need elbow and knee pads for first scooters? DS will be 3 in January and is getting a Christmas scooter, I don't see kids with these pads on around here though? He will be having a helmet of course. He is fairly clumsy if that helps, due to carelessness rather than ability Hmm

Haudyourwheesht · 14/10/2021 09:10

We didn't get DD knee and elbow pads for her first scooter. She wasn't massively adventurous on it though so you may need extra padding if your wee one is.

picklepants756 · 14/10/2021 09:24

@Yeknom will DM you a referral code lovely xx

PeppaPigOinkOinkOink · 14/10/2021 09:33

Amazon have up to 40% off some of their products today.

clpsmum · 14/10/2021 10:05

Do you have a link @PeppaPigOinkOinkOink nothing showing on my Amazon homepage and I would hate to miss a bargain!!
