Thread 13 - the one with the day of the cardboard boxes

[Reastie]

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

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

@beakerandbungle try à Camp Half Blood t-shirt. Normally cheap on Amazon. My DC loved theirs. DS virtually lived in his. And they can wear it as a world book day costume!

Some great deals on Lego at Argos this morning. Got this one down to £43.87 with existing discount plus code LEGO10. Got some requested Star Wars sets too so that’ll do me for Lego ordering I think!

24% off at Buyagift with code WEEKEND24

Morning everyone

lookfantastic is worth a browse this morning - it’s has some stocking filler/small gift items in a 3 for 2 offer.

Separately my eldest has recently got into Greek myths and Percy Jackson ( he’s 9 nearly 10 - ADHD and doesn’t usually read or engage in learning so this is progress, and another hyper focus to football!). Other than a book does anyone have any thoughts for gifts? I’m stumped

How about some stuff relating to Hercules and other Greek gods? Take him for Greek maze perhaps? Or even get him some jewellery that looks Greek (is that even a thing)

You could even take him to a museum to see any grecoroman exhibits? Or even pottery painting and get him to make his own Percy Jackson inspired stuff?

Please could someone link to the Amazon Lego deals?

@Spamhead421 this takes you to a few (hopefully) www.<a class="break-all" href="https://amazon.co.uk/s?ref=nb_sb_noss%2A&k=lego%20yoda&tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-christmas-4377352-Thread-13-the-one-with-the-day-of-the-cardboard-boxes" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">amazon.co.uk/s?k=lego+yoda&ref=nb_sb_noss

Seems to be on lots of the Lego though so you’ll need to search generally too I think

My DS11 loves Percy Jackson & has read everything by Rick Riordan (got his latest book for Christmas!)

He has a camp half blood t-shirt, necklace & hoodie. We have the dvd & Nintendo DS Lite game. He's also had dig kits based around mythology.

It's given him a real interest in mythology & he's read a lot of other series on the subject. Would recommend these:

Who Let the Gods Out - Maz Evan's
Valkyrie - Kate O'Hearn
Pegasus - Kate O'Hearn
Shadow of the Dragon - Kate O'Hearn
The Last Dragon Chronicles- Chris d'Lacey
Wings of Fire- Tui Sutherland

My Amazon lego voucher isn’t applying at checkout, could anyone suggest any reasons why? I’m trying to buy the HP clock tower.

Check Argos too though for Lego, just seen the yoda Lego is still £7 cheaper there

thank you for the lego deal. got some minecraft lego!

I agree @Mumto3thatsme. The Star Wars AT ST Raider set for example is £37.50 with Argos - and you can get 10 per cent off that with LEGO10. Still down as £63.99 on Amazon!

20% off ooni pizza ovens at Harts of Stur with the code.

If anyone would like a refer a friend code to Joe Brown where you receive a £10 voucher pm me and I will send you a code.
Only works on first five people daily.
I ordered a Christmas tree ornament for free 😀

Does anyone know where or how to add a code when shopping at Smyths please?

Driving me crazy!

Included in the Amazon Lego deal is the Lego friends advent calendar which with the couched works out at £13.18. Never seen it anywhere this cheap before!

I ordered this 2 days ago at £16 which I thought was good. But just been on live chat to see if they would honour the new price & somehow ended up getting £8 credit back!?!

@bestofluck which existing discount code?

@dizzygirl1 the Space Station set is already discounted from £65 to £48.75. The discount code LEGO10 then saves a further 10%.

Excellent @Ck91 I bought DS the Boba Fett helmet - great price!

Fossil have an extra 20% off their sale and outlet stuff

Thank you for the Greek suggestions
