Thanks @bizzey for the title, which tickled me! The day of the triffids? Nope, it’s the day of the cardboard boxes!

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.

Thanks for the WHSmith codes, even got my wrapping paper sorted and some great craft books for me.

Talking of really cheap books my story tree which was recommended previously has another 10% off all books (which only cost £1.99 anyway) if you spend £25 with code HALFTERM10

Biscuiteers have £5 off their Halloween boxes with HAUNTEDHOUSE (but I just can't bring myself to pay £30 for a box of biscuits even though they do look amazing!)

Lakeland codes. They have dates on them.

I've tried the codes for WHSmith and they are now working. I think I had a space after the code which was preventing it from being accepted.

@Reastie second third and forth the thread title nomination.
“The one with the strap - on tools with different ends” 😂😂😂

I have just bought two gold ones. I looked at them this morning. Thought about them all morning so ordered at lunchtime and panicked as not all colours / sizes left.
CamdenLurker · 18/10/2021 13:48

QVC baubles are now on a wait list - typical that I would ponder buying one and they sell out!

Anyone got any tips for (preferably bargainous) really comfortable socks for men. My dad is quite particular about his socks but can't get his usual ones anymore.

22Giraffes · 18/10/2021 14:04

Another vote for next thread, The one with the strap on tools Xmas Grin

Mumto3thatsme · 18/10/2021 14:06

The4ks · 18/10/2021 14:07

Peacocks have 20% off womens nightwear with code 20NIGHT.
Also some kids Christmas pj's reduced to £9, look cute.

Spamhead421 · 18/10/2021 14:09

Does anyone know any codes for the works or Argos please?

selina25 · 18/10/2021 14:13

thank you

UrbanMage · 18/10/2021 14:25

Not very Christmassy but I’ve just done a big order on snag tights as its 25% off order of 10 pairs of tights and its 9.1% cashback on TCB. It might help someone Hmm

Thegirlhasnamechanged · 18/10/2021 14:28

Ah bugger. Moved house at the beginning of October and you’re already 3 threads ahead. Moving at the speed of light this year 😂

Try BAM bamboo socks, the best socks I've ever worn, they do plain black as well as patterned socks.

I know a few people were interested in fossils earlier on, Jurassic Jim on Facebook had posted about an hr ago that there were fossil advent calendars available to order but only 50 sets, they seem to be selling quickly. May already be gone I just saw the message.

@selina25 and @22Giraffes My DH also swears by wets, and he mangles most brands🤣

That should be Wera!! Blooming autocorrect 🤦‍♀️

2319inprogress · 18/10/2021 14:46

WhereIsThisGoing another vote for BAM socks
They have 3 for 2 until midnight & 10% off for first order.
Wonderful socks, I stock up when on offer & have given up on all other socks!

SpamIAm · 18/10/2021 14:50

Little People Big Dreams are in the 2 for £7 in Tesco

Cannot believe what a bargain that is!

daisyboo1 · 18/10/2021 14:51

@Ourlady thank you for the Swizzles link. Not doing Christmas crackers on the table this year so these will be ideal with a scratchcard in a festive fabric bag, with the reindeer place names on the table - both from previous thread!

Just been to Aldi and in their new mag they have dolls house furniture coming this Thurs.
