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

@SB1971

Has anyone seen a code for Urban Outfitters - I can see 10% off to sign up to the newsletter but DD has asked for a pricey pair of trousers and would love some more off!

Thanks

Urban outfitters are one of the retailers on zilch so you could get £10 off for signing up using my code. You don't have to use the credit facility.

Thanks for the entertainer discount code. I’ve been looking for a discounted pink Vtech Kiddizoom camera for ages and managed to get one for £33 Flowers

Hi Can I ask the person who posted about the piececool 3D metal model kits what tools do they recommend to use with them, there is an 8 piece tool set but it doesnt get good reviews. Thanks for the tip about them they look fantastic, my son will love them.

Turns out you can also use AFF10 for additional 10% off sale

Got some good extra little fun (and very useful!) gifts!

I've ordered gold baubles but on the confirmation email they are red. Does anyone else have this?

My confirmation email shows a picture of a red bauble, but I ordered Silver (I think) I logged into my QVC account to check, but it doesn't say which colour. I'm 99.9% sure I ordered silver...but it could have been gold. Defo wasn't red, lol

Hi revolving, I've looked but not found the smaller versions of the 'colour in cardboard houses'... I purchased 2 large ones from hobbycraft along with some craylolacolour in packs but there were no smaller versions... Check the dimensions of some of them, for example, the igloo is smaller than the fairy House

PostPopper · 18/10/2021 20:08

QVC baubles. I ordered a medium silver. My email shows a red bauble but my account shows a silver one.
While on, I noticed they are back on pre order to be shipped week beginning 13 December

@Feelingpoorlysick

Has anyone used zilch before? I've just signed up and got £10 free to spend so basically managed to get something for free on Amazon! That's one more present sorted.

If anyone is interested I've got a referral code I can send to you 😊

I'd be interested in trying it out please.
2lostsouls · 18/10/2021 20:13

2 for £7 on lots of children’s books on Amazon list here

Penguinbeaver · 18/10/2021 20:20

Can anyone please recommend a reputable place to buy essential oils, I know nothing about them but have a requested list of individual scents to purchase Flowers

greyinganddecaying · 18/10/2021 20:20

Thanks for the WHSmith codes - I've bought 4 annuals and JK Rowling's latest book for £21!

I'm trying to step back a bit as I'm completely covered for the kids presents now, but still can't help myself...

Feelingpoorlysick · 18/10/2021 20:25

I've sent you a pm 🙂

I bought the Starlink starter set from The Entertainer last year and the kids have barely played with it! The actual ship has no purpose for the game play, just attaches to the controller. I can see it abandoned under the TV from where I am sitting.

Cockle1234 · 18/10/2021 20:42

@handmademitlove

I am looking for a light / projector that will show an accurate depiction of the night sky (for a young teen, rather than a nightlight for younger children) if anyone can suggest anything? The ones I have found don't seem to be "real" constellations!

Or alternatively a glow in the dark large poster to stick to the ceiling!

@handmademitlove these are on 50% off atm www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B085DDTGPM?tag=offeroftheday-21&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1
dizzygirl1 · 18/10/2021 20:43

Yet another ask sorry... I'm looking to buy an xbox... any deals anyone knows of? Pretty please

aimslou · 18/10/2021 20:43

Does anybody have at codes for Claire's?

Sideorderofchips · 18/10/2021 20:49

Can try clairesbff not sure if it's 10%

SB1971 · 18/10/2021 20:54

Yes please!

Puffalicious · 18/10/2021 21:01

@Changingagain

The starlink starter set for the switch is £5 here at the entertainer. It's a switch game with spaceships and characters that attach to the normal controller.
Thanks so much! Total bargain!!! One bought for my nephew and one of the add on packs. It's such a shame it can't be used on the Switch Lite as my DS3 is obsessed by his Switch!

@Cockle1234

What an original idea and great price point
