Thread 20 - the one with a drowning Gary Barlow in hot chocolate

[Reastie]

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

Lancome deal from a couple of threads ago, code BLACKFRIDAY gives discount and free delivery on full price items, plus you get to choose 2 samples (I chose fragrances) and the free gift box. Attached is a photo of the contents. I got the Mr Big mascara, the two samples and the gift box for £15.75.

@FiloFaxx it was DPD

The QVC L’occitane Christmas TSV is live now. Seems good value and the 20% Shea hand creams are really quite good.

@clpsmum I either get my wall calendar/family planner from National Trust or Calendar Club, CC have 11% at topcashback at the mo and regularly do other offers incl on delivery. Do check the sizes though, the one I ordered was smaller than I expected, lovely but smaller, the NT one has more room to write stuff on

@pinkfondu I spent ages looking at weighted blankets as wanted one that was a bit more grown up and not grey for DD and settled on one from a seller on ETSY, there are lots of lovely patterns and you can choose the backing colour too. Not the cheapest but I had grandparents money to spend and DD got to choose just what she wanted and I could specify the weight as she seemed to be between the standard sizes on premade ones

I too got my Lancôme box and really pleased with it as an extra for DD. It does say Not for individual resale on the back though so not sure I’d be comfortable gifting it as a main gift for someone else.

Thanks. Its just an additional gift for my recipients but just didn't want it looking like obvious free gift / tester sized items!

All gifts sets say not for individual resale on them, there's nothing at all that makes it obvious it's a free gift so I'd be happy gifting it as an extra gift or stocking filler or for a small teacher gift and I'd be really happy to receive as a little gift too. I'm still in two minds whether to gift or keep.

@XiCi and me - I’m tempted to buy a female friend a nice mascara so she can also have the gift box and samples too, do you think that would be ok?

Oh and many thanks to the poster who recommended the Mr Big mascara for blonde eyelashes - I’ve got some on already and it’s lovely! I’m a convert!

Any Decathlon codes? DS would love a massive football goal for the garden.
Thank you!

Nails Inc currently have 20% off on their website using code BF20.

I've just bought some lovely sets as stocking fillers.

I'm clearly rubbish at attempting clicky links so apologies!

I bought the Elemis set for myself, so managed to convince myself that I didn't need the Neom box, but now I need to resist the L'occitaine set too

Paddy and Scotts coffee 15% off with LUCKYDAY

Escentual has 25% off everything with ESCENTUAL25

Got Armani Code Profumo and women's for gifts for a great price

Thanks @Lurleene that's brilliant.
Just realised I now need a matress so if anyone has another code floating about that they won't use (Argos) I would be so grateful

@Newdad19 I'm holding out for Jo Malone discount via the 20% off Selfridges which I expect will come around Black Friday

Looking for a diffuser that’s battery operated rather than electric , any recommendations please?

Yes I think that would be lovely, or a nice lipstick as the Hypnose Mascara is already in there

I have a £5 off £50 code at argos but I’m planning on spending more.
Anyone want to swap with a bigger spend limit voucher?

Gah, I think I missed the Lancôme offer - can’t get BLACKFRIDAY to work with the mascara (though it does seem to work with full price items)

20% off Lego on eBay with code BLACKFRIDAYUK

Thanks @HulahoopsBBQbeef - just got the L’occitane as agree it’s a good set to split for gifting ( and my mum had asked for the hand cream and body lotion so that was lucky!)
