I bought the small waves backpack from fiorelli and really wish I'd gotten the medium instead Hmm did anyone get the medium and can advise on wether it would be big enough as a baby bag? Just think a could of bottles, bibs, nappies & wipes. Thanks

These threads are moving so fast! Just seen that I've missed exploding kittens on offer again

I actually didn't think the Romanian wine was too bad! Hmm

I've just been browsing Amazon, and a "Piececool 3d metal model set, black pearl" has just popped up for 28.99 but there's a 50% off voucher you can tick making it bargainous. Sorry I can't seem to do links from my phone, but thought it worth a mention.

Notlongnow1 · 14/10/2021 10:37

My fiorelli bag has just arrived. I'm in love 😍

Haveyoubrushedyourteeth · 14/10/2021 10:38

On further investigation, it seems all piececool 3d models have the 50% off.....I just got over excited and didn't keep scrolling!They are more older teen/adult targeted so going to get DS and DH one each for their stockings.

nocutsnobuttsnococonuts · 14/10/2021 10:47

Anyone real life shopping, Tesco had LOL colour surprise dolls reduced to £2.50 and £1.25 for lil ones loads in my local one. Picked up some for dd2 stocking!

No idea what they are like but for some different male smellies Paxton and Pepper have some half price sets available in Boots. These are Vegan friendly too.

Ahh I’m too slow. All the things I like in the Hot Diamonds sale are out of stock!

Got my free shampoo bar from eco shop though thanks again everyone.

I’m at the stage I’m trying to resist certain things as I’ve done well and don’t want to overbuy!

Minionbums · 14/10/2021 11:15

Thanks for the piececool heads up, I’ve just ordered one for my DH!

The hot diamonds outlet section has had everything out of stock for weeks. I’ve been keeping my eye on it for ages cos I got some stuff a while ago with a good discount code and nothing has been added since.

MsMiaWallace · 14/10/2021 11:20

@buckeejit

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!

That wine is lovely! In fact I have some in the fridge now.
Heartbeeps · 14/10/2021 11:28

I’m a serial lurker but just wanted to say I phoned to cancel the wine52 subscription with no problems. I did have to wait 5 mins on hold but the man was very pleasant and not pushy to make me keep the subscription. He also asked if I enjoyed the wine… Grin

Rockhopper81 · 14/10/2021 11:34

Thanks for the piececool information - just ordered a helicopter for my dad as part of his Christmas present. 😊

Tina221 · 14/10/2021 11:35

Hi everyone, I'd like to surprise my DS (17) with apple airpods pro, they are £209 at John Lewis and I wondered if there's anywhere I could by them from with a discount code, thanks very much 🎄😍

MyPatronusIsAPenguin · 14/10/2021 11:42

Sorry to derail slightly but those who used Beer52 and Wine52 is there anyway to cancel without actually calling them?!

Cornishgirl59 · 14/10/2021 11:49

Cox & Cox - 25% of a first order - VVPD25.
Cult Beauty - 15% off , £20 min. spend. One use only. CB21SCO61V and also CB21SWDBSK.

Changingagain · 14/10/2021 11:52

Thanks for the Piececool tip, that's one DB sorted and I've told DH that he can get me one too Grin

EvilHerbivore · 14/10/2021 11:56

I emailed 152 to cancel but hadn't had a response so called today and sods law, whilst I was on the phone received an email saying my subscription had been cancelled

Just picked up the last two 3kg weighted blankets in Home Bargains £14.99 for DD who turns 7 just before Xmas and DS who turns 4 just after. They apparently do them in pink as well and I would have preferred one of each colour, but better to have two grey ones than DD miss out if our small Home Bargains doesn't get restocked. I've just had a ten minute snuggle under one and think I might be stealing borrowing it occasionally.

Also, I remember there was talk about Gonks on an earlier thread. DS and I went to The Range yesterday to look at all the Christmas lights and Halloween merchandise. They had lots and lots of gonk themed Christmas stuff.

The Christmas stuff in The Range is amazing. Lots of little animated Christmas villages and the like. Well worth a trip for Christmas Junkies.

I'll try that first then! I am partially deaf and hate making phone calls with a passion! I got sucked in when I was signing up for something else! I haven't had my deliveries yet and I've paused the next months to buy me some time so I can avoid the issue
Bsgetty · 14/10/2021 12:11

These are kind of niche, but while scrolling through the piececool metal models, I spotted a couple of wooden model kits with 65% off vouchers. They’re both music boxes, one is a robo bunny and the other a robot with an led nightlight heart. The robot is already discounted from £23.09 to £18.47, and then the 65% is on top of that, so it works out as £6.46 so definitely a bargain!

Neither have any reviews though, although other ROKR kits get good reviews (I haven’t tried them myself).

allthingsred · 14/10/2021 12:22

Anyone know north face clothing but in ages?
My 14 dd wants a coat.. I'm hoping to get away with children's size.
She is usually in 13-14 clothes or xs women
Would north face xl be big enough?

Woahbodyforrrrm · 14/10/2021 12:27

I’m not sure if this has been mentioned as I’m late to the threads this year, and it’s not technically a Christmas bargain, but if you have Amazon prime you can get a years free delivery on Deliveroo which would ordinarily cost £3.49pm. Minimum spend is £25 but as a family of 6, we meet this threshold every time.
