Poor old Gary - he’s gone from money off his concerts to being drowned in hot chocolate 🤣. Thanks for the title @iklboo Grin

Could someone remind me where the Neom boxes are with the codes (and what they are) please? Seen them loads of times and thought I don't need one but in actual fact I do!!

Beakerandbungle · 17/11/2021 07:43

@Delahot - I have some plain all black Nike trainers that weren’t expensive. I wouldn’t go proper walking in them but they are good enough for walking around in daily life as are proper trainers and innocuous enough to probably be fine for afternoon tea! Think I got them at JD sports reduced but worth a look. They aren’t very waterproof is the only thing.

DillieDoily · 17/11/2021 07:44

@Piccalino3 here is the Neom deal here and code NEW20 brings it down to £32. It's a great gift in a lovely big box.

buckeejit · 17/11/2021 07:45

@IDontDrinkTea I have one very like this for camping & it's an absolute joy-I usually suffer from a bad back but this is great.

Thanks fir the John Lewis Dyson tip, will double check & order today 😁

DillieDoily · 17/11/2021 07:46

Have I missed the half price crackers at Waitrose? They are usually on offer one weekend in November

Also does anyone have an Argos code (my basket is £150 so would love to save a little off it)?

WotgunShedding · 17/11/2021 07:48

Thanks for the threads! Have started much later this year due to ill health in the family but excited to finally start!

I missed out on the hot chocolate shakers last year, opting for the Aldi hotel chocolat velvetiser knock off which promptly broke after its second use are there any codes floating about for it this year?

Also would love to know if there are any hotel chocolat bundles or codes, possibly for personal use rather than Christmas presents Grin

@DillieDoily stop tempting me with the Neom box. I've resisted thus far......Wink
Everytime it gets mentioned, I'm like shall ? Shan't I?

Piccalino3 · 17/11/2021 07:53

@DillieDoily thank you. I think it must be sold out as it says coming soon. I'll keep checking.

kpfragglesrock · 17/11/2021 07:55

@NoSquirrels

Thank so much - sending my mum to Lidl tomorrow morning Smile

RazorstormUnicorn · 17/11/2021 07:59

@delahot they do exist but might depend on your budget. I like Merrell for really sturdy walking trainers and plenty of styles are nice enough to be worn to pub or afternoon as well.

I havent owned any yet, but On Cloud also look good.

I'm afraid I don't have any codes for you, but they'd both be worth keeping an eye out for on Black Friday.

MalfunctioningRobot · 17/11/2021 08:03

20% off matalan code if anyone wants one. Valid until 8th December.

@pinkfondu

Morning all Namer changer who is normally around a lot earlier than this Blush

Can anyone recommend a weighted blanket for 13 yr old Dd. I know they crop up every year and I need to be aware of the weight but is it just any old Amazon one or can anyone recommend a specific one Wine

Morning. I'm just looking at Mela that someone recommended upthread. They seem to have great reviews and come in a variety of sizes. Not inexpensive mind. FEATHERSTONE-15 for an extra 15% off
Oneborneverydecade · 17/11/2021 08:05

@AnotherOne4 do it! I bought mine at £40 and have a small pang of disappointment every time someone mentions £32

Haveyoubrushedyourteeth · 17/11/2021 08:06

@bellsaringing if you've not already found one look at Urban Outfitters, a helpful pp recommended downloading the app to get 10% off..I bought one for dd from there a week or so ago, and already they've had an extra 20% off banner so look out for black Friday deals.
I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one who was a bit ?? about such a request!

redtulip12 · 17/11/2021 08:18

Does anyone have an Argos code. DD wants a new bed for Xmas! TIA

Lurleene · 17/11/2021 08:29

@redtulip12 I have just PMed you Smile

EverybodyKeepCool · 17/11/2021 08:34

Emma Bridgwater is doing 2 1/2 pint mugs for £30 and 2 small mugs for £20

Choconuts · 17/11/2021 08:36

PS5 in stock on Amazon but you'll need to be quick sorry I couldn't remember who was asking

Equimum · 17/11/2021 08:39

Is anyone else watching the Lego Police station? I'm tracking new and used on EBay and the price doesn't seem to be dropping. I know Amazon have it for £69.99, but it seems so expensive for what is not a lot of bricks. Anyone think it'll drop further at any point before Christmas?

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 17/11/2021 08:45

Matalan 20% off code - please use this so that I'm not tempted to 😂

@clpsmum calendar club, wh Smith's or waterstones?
Or Art gallery online shops?
I have got this one but I love children's books. Lots of illustrations of animals sitting down to dinner or struggling through snow, stugling with a boat in a storm.

@pinkfondu I think it's onlinehomeshop lots of people used for weighted blankets. I know someone with one from there they are happy with.

Scout2016 · 17/11/2021 08:55

Thanks to whoever it was for Weird Fish tip off, got my dad a shaket to go with his Smith's bargain books and half the qvc HC bundle. I would never have looked at Weird Fish otherwise, this thread is such a help thank you all.

friskybivalves · 17/11/2021 08:55

Morning everyone - I am really bad at buying perfume but my dd has just put in a request for Oceana di Gioia by Armani (never heard of it before) which seems so expensive it will be oceans of tears for my bank account if I have to pay full price for it, never mind joy. 😂 Its also blooming difficult to find at all. If anyone stumbles across a way to get money off a small bottle I would be hugely grateful!

imnottoofussed · 17/11/2021 08:55

@kpfragglesrock Lidl has a barbie dream camper for £59.99 not sure if you're after that one
