@onedayatatime73 I have been using Little Blue Hen shampoo bars after seeing it recommended on MN. It lasts ages although has lost its smell. That said I don't use face creams and stuff.
SIL who is very eco and does use creams and masks swears by Beauty Kitchen, the containers can be reused by returning in post or taking to Holland and Barratt.

@onedayatatime73

My DM has just said she would like some sustainable beauty products eg shampoo bar for Christmas. Any bargainous suggestions?

The Ethique shampoo and conditioner bars are lovely. You can get them from Holland and Barrett.

I have seen a lot of chat about muscle guns. My husband is waiting for a hip and knee replacement and is finding himself in a lot of pain. He is struggling particularly with getting a tight muscle in his thigh. I am wondering if one of these would help. There are loads on Amazon with good reviews. I had already bought his xmas present but if it helps don't mind getting one but after recommendations and experience ideally

I received a massage gin from amazon a few months ago and it's amazing! I'd say it'll definitely help with tight thigh muscles. There's specific attachments for different parts of the body.

Wow @guineapigs 👏 glad it worked out for you!

Thanks @catsarebetterthandogs9 grabbed the cars! A bargain!

My JL stuff just arrived. Anyone interested in Tile (Bluetooth finders) might want to know that they did send out the 2021 version when ordered online - the one I bought in store is an old version. Now to decide which to keep. I’ll probably actually keep the old one as although the new one has a better range the battery is non-replaceable.

@squishmycherry A massage gin sounds amazing, to be fair.

@Reastie Contender for the next thread title?

Somehow missed 2 threads!

Thanks for the Craft Gin Club code- think I'll get a box for my mum. Hopefully it'll be easy enough to cancel once received.

Does anyone have any advice for a good milk frother? Seen the Lavazza one mentioned before - if that's not likely be reduced well for black Friday, I need a cheaper option really. Or are the little hand held whisk things good enough to start with?

I just signed up for the gin and saw in their other offers section that you can get a free 8 pack of craft beer, from Beer52, for £5.95 postage. Might be a nice add on for DH (and keep the gin for yourself )

@InDreamland

Up to 70% off in the Georg Jensen black Friday sale. Just picked up an absolute bargain gift at 70% off, I'm so chuffed.

Can’t see any sale prices at all

@catsarebetterthandogs9 thanks so much for the hot wheels tip. I've ordered 3 boxes as these would be perfect for car mad Ds and / or for gifts!

@squishmycherry do you know which make and model it was as they are loads ? Thanks

@BeauticianNotMagician81 I think someone posted a picture of the switch from Morrisons earlier £50 off so £230 for Black Friday

@BeauticianNotMagician81 apparently the offer is live from today in their stores

A warning about the beer52..
It comes in a box saying beer52.., craft ales .
I did a 2nd order from them and kept a black bag by the front door !

Amazon are giving £20 credit when you add a Mastercard or Amex debit card to your account - they are stopping taking visa credit cards in January so that’s why

@imnottoofussed thank you. We have one already but the two younger boys fight over it.

Any codes for H&M floating around?

I need a small, sewing kit for a gift so wasn’t sure where the best place to get one or has anyone seen anything nice? Cute box/storage would be lovely.

@Yeknom

Oooh I see the JL glitch thread has been removed. I didn't order but wanted to see whether you all received your items

@Yeknom Half of mine arrived this morning - playmobil and chocolate. The other half is due tomorrow - lego and the make up.

I didn't order loads as I was rushing and didn't really think it through, now I'm kicking myself a bit! it is all stuff I wanted to buy anyway, but if I had taken 5 minutes to think about it a bit more, there were a lot more things I would have welcomed the discount on! I just assumed the glitch would disappear any minute.

Perfect thank. That’s exactly the help I need

@slithytoveisascientist any idea how to find that please? I can't see it on the amazon website

@catsarebetterthandogs9

Hot Wheels 10 car pack £5 at Amazon

Thanks for the Hot Wheels tip - that is a fantastic deal!

Thanks for the invisibobble deal and the papier codes! Great bargains. Does anyone have an ASOS code that I could use?

@Delahot
Are you a H&M plus member? They emailed today saying 20% off everything automatically until the 24th Nov.
If you’ve never joined it may be worth doing, I think they give you a small discount on your first order over £20.

Yankee Candle Advent Calendar for £10 delivered at yankee bundles.

@PinkDaydreams I find that b&m sell packs of 10
Duracell AA & AAA batteries for around £4 which is half the price of supermarkets.
