Thread 18 - the one with the owl pellets

[Reastie]

Thanks @famousthehero for the title. I had no idea you could buy such things and I’m now imagining scores of children getting owl poo as a present for Christmas! They must be popular as they’re now out of stock 🤣.

@Mumof3loveschristmas I'm doing a hot chocolate bar this year, for the actual hot chocolate I will buy Nutella and some whittard of chelsea flavours as they do some unusual ones. I'm also getting toppings of marshmallows, toffee bits, mini chocolate chips, M&S colin sprinkles/christmas sprinkles, candy canes, Lindt truffles, pirouette cookies, whipped cream, dark chocolate syrup and caramel sauce.

Mugler has -20% sitewide, no codes needed.

Olive and Sage order has just arrived! 🎉

Thanks for the look fantastic codes. Need to order more Elemis bits and was thinking of waiting till Black Friday but might just order now.

Hi I bought the hot chocolate shaker for my son for Christmas, he loves a good hot chocolate but normally just uses the powder. Just wondering what everyone has used with theirs? I'm planning on doing some sort of hamper.

We got one last year and have used everything from hot chocolate flakes to Nutella to favourite chocolate bars (chocolate orange, Twirl, Milky Bar, Tony's, etc. etc.). I don't think you can go wrong!

Thanks @Allmyarseandpeggymartin I'm not too far away, but like Maharaja, I really want them too and I'm none too clever out and about at the minute.

Also 🤞

@Someaddedsugar
Friends with teenage daughters swear by Clinique. From memory they do a men’s range. But I think their skincare is fairly unisex anyway.

@Mumof3loveschristmas which hot chocolate shaker? Have I missed a bargain??

I'm doing a hot chocolate hamper for dd and me and am thinking of one of these for her

Latest from Aldi website. It's looking likely Sunday for lights instore.

Bit random but pets need presents too! Does anyone have any Pets at Home discounts please? You get 10% when you sign up to their newsletter but I used that one before on more that one occasion!

Any Argos codes going spare please? It should be about an £80 spend (assuming everything is in stock)

Does anyone know if the Argos 2 for £15/£30 offers are permanent? There are some things there I’d quite like but not sure whether to wait for something better around Black Friday or go for it before I miss out.

Thank you so much, I have used it.

@Georgieporgie29 you're welcome glad I could help xx

My Urban Decay Prince pallettes have arrived while I was on the school run 😁 One for me (because I rarely buy make up so thought I deserved it lol) and one for a friend for Christmas. Very pleased so thanks to the person who posted about them as I missed them at Boots - had it in my basket, clicked checkout and it said oos so literally got pipped to the post.

Any entertainer codes available?

@thaegumathteth I bought all four of those teaspoons from amazon for about 80p a while back. They weren’t personalised right enough. I’ll see if I can find the link.

Their fun for Christmas but very cheap looking.

They’ve gone up a bit, £1.49 and £1.99 delivery but you get all 4

Although not a present bargain as such
farmdrop.com just sent me a code for £35 off £100 with code FEAST35

I don't suppose anyone knows of a cheap way of getting something posted from Italy to the UK? I need some replacement water bottle caps that can only be bought from Italy, they cost €5 and shipping is €25! Even internal shipping to Italy is €7 but I was hoping there might be a cheap parcel company or something that would send it on cheaper.
I've exhausted all the uk suppliers/agents probs and asked the Italian company if they can reduce the shipping cost but no luck

@HaggisTheGreat if not permanent, they're certainly long-standing.

Need opinions please on if this sounds a bit silly! I've bought ds a kitchen for Christmas along with some Aldi wooden bits. He's already got a couple of pans and utensils, apron, cookie cutters.
I just need a mixing bowl, wooden spoon and whisk, would I be mad to just buy 'normal' ones?!

No @PinkDaydreams. Real stuff is often better. I did the same with a doctor's kit!

@PositiveLife

Master of Malt have offers on some of their taster samples. They make good stocking fillers. Also some orders are being selected for free stuff when you've checked out. I got a 5cl bottle of vodka free

Thank you for this @PositiveLife

There's the option to build your own tasting set which doesn't seem to cost any more than the price of the individual samples, so I have done that! Still have to pay £4.50 postage but got a sixth free sample so a nice little tasting set for less than £18 - bargain!

I can’t see why not.

Don’t forget ikeas children’s kitchen stuff is brilliant, it’s in the toy section but perfectly useable
