Is anyone on the look out for the oculus quest 2? What do you think will the best price for it?

I'd really like to know this too, absolute novice here. It's this or a Switch, which seems v expensive for games. I'm thinking the OQ might include more physical/exploratory stuff rather than sedentary (though fun) game playing?

@Mumto3thatsme I am on the case!! I'll be there first thing tomorrow keep me posted if you get the Winnie the Pooh one or not.

@IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile sorry but could you link to the weighted blankets? The one in my list has gone UP in price 🙈 and I can’t seem to see them in the deaks if the day. Plenty of different bottles of spirits though.

@cinders222

Does anyone have the Aldi fake velvitisor. Was going to buy one but reviews don't appear great.

We got one last year and it broke after 3 or 4 uses. It took ages to get a refund too as I had to keep chasing. We then bought the Hotel Chocolat one and never looked back. The Aldi one was enough for us to find out if we'd use the more expensive one or not though.

Any advice on a hoverboard for a 10 year old? Request came out of the blue!

I've seen this one from Argos for £150 but know absolutely nothing about hoverboards so thought I'd ask here before ordering anything.

Good morning, I'm sending a raft of Christmas presents this morning (better them cluttering up someone else's house than mine!) don't suppose anyone has a student discount code for Hermes please?

@AnimalTheDrummer - the tom fletcher dinosaur books are good fun - we have "the dinosaur that pooped a planet", and "the dinosaur that pooped Christmas". Its rhyming, and the animation is big and colourful in them too.

@RJnomore1 hopefully that will take you to the right place.

Will PM you @Beakerandbungle

Are there any discount codes around for JD? I know there is APP20 but this is for reduced items only. Unfortunately the stuff DS13 wants is all still full price!! Thanks in advance.

Yes it did thank you! Picked one up for under £20 which is great...not sure how she will feel about it so didn’t want to spend too much!

I know someone was asking about yoga mats, my local tkmaxx had loads of different exercise mats including yoga ones for £12.99.
I used my Sparks beauty discount for some festive hand wash & cream, it smells fantastic.

Any advice on the best place to buy individually wrapped hot chocolate stirrers or bombs? The DCs are looked after by all the nursery staff between them so I like to get something small but lovely for each staff member and there's 12 of them.

Need to be veggie as most staff members are Muslim so can't eat marshmallows with gelatine in them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@JanuaryEl5ieBill I got some from M&S but would be keen to get more (cheaper) as I'm not sure the dc will appreciate M&S quality!

Thank you @catsarebetterthandogs9 Happy Christmas.

@Chocolateteabag

Maybe a bit niche but is anyone looking for electrical appliances? Swan have just sent me a 22% off code BLACKSWAN22 Kettles, toasters, steam cleaners etc

Thank you! you've just saved me £40

After an attempt during lockdown that spectacularly crashed and burned just as we all got excited, Flying Tiger now have a website that actually loads and lets you buy things! Flying Tiger is fab for crafty bits, stationery, Christmas baubles, quirky home accessories, sweet treats and random toot you didn't know you needed (often shaped like random objects from your youth).

Those mourning the loss of Hema will probably enjoy this one.

Hi everyone and thanks for the posts so far - I’ve been reading for years (😳) but never posted, decided to get a bit more involved.
I’m asking please if anyone would have a decent discount code or any discount code at all for WeRChristmas - I want to put a big order through but just can’t if no discount code - it’s just ingrained at this point!!!
Can’t find the items elsewhere though so they kind of have me hostage. I’ve done a live chat but nothing.
Any ideas at all?

@JanuaryEl5ieBill
If you want to keep the cost down it might be easier to go for stirrers without marshmallows like here - 6 for £10 and can select flavours. Not tried these but have vegan daughter who loves marshmallows/s'mores and the mallows are always pricey!
