[Reastie]

Thanks @Carrie76 for the title. Just for everyone’s info - the chat was about tablet size 😁

If you’re posting anything specifically for me please do @ me or I may not spot it. It’s helpful if when sharing bargain info you bold it to make it easy for people to differentiate between chat and bargain links.

Second message has a few links and info which I’ll slowly build up, let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to add to it

@Daisy829 thanks, hair accessories ordered!

Sorry to add to the chat but thought y'all should know that I was offered a free ticket for Gary Barlow on Saturday evening. Considered it for 10 seconds then realised I still couldn't be arsed to go half an hour up the road for it!

You have summed up the situation in my household every December better than I’ve ever been able to! My son has ASD and a December birthday, and finds the present thing a total nightmare for the same reason. Extended family don’t understand at all - at least Covid meant a year (or two) where he hasn’t had to open stuff in front of people.[/quote]
Snap! This is exactly us too. His sibling loves anything and everything but DS is so particular I find it really difficult to grasp at birthday and Christmas time (he is a Xmas Day baby too!). If he's not interested it just gets tossed aside and never looked at, we must have wasted so much money over the years. He would be happy with the past 10 years worth of Match of the Day annuals to be honest.

Does anyone have an argos code please? I want to buy some Christmas decorations!

Omg marks is taking the piss now.

My advent calendar for day 2 has automatically entered me into a comp to win Gary tickets 😂

I soo want to go a Gary Barlow thing !
Soo jealous !

Where are they happening ?

Poor Gary x

FFS day 2. Win 2 Gary Barlow tickets in London. I live in Perth.

I am London !

I am stalking Gary now !

Is it Hammersmith ?

Sorry Barry ...you are at the O2 ...Not gonna make it !

I have also been entered into the Gary Barlow competition.

It's like they don't know me at all 🤷🏻‍♀️

I keep seeing the GB advert on fb and thinking of you all 😂

Asda have quite a few gifts on 3 for 2 .

I had an octopus Jellycat for my birthday a few days back and I've named him Gary on account of these threads but now I think Barry may have also been a winer

Winner* a pox on this bloody phone.

@SweetPeaPods

I'm late to the fake oodie party and nieces have decided they would like one. Around an age 14/ size 8 ish. Guessing the next kids ones will be too small? And I don't have time to go to primark. Any online recommendations, I don't have the budget for proper ones.

The age 11-13 Next ones fit me with tonnes of space. They come down to my knees and the arms are about 7/8 length. I'm 5'6" and a generous size 12. They're so big I bought the age 7-10 for my 11 year olds and they'll still have plenty of growing room.

You have to actually enter your details on the page to be entered in for the Gary tickets and looks like M&S have secured a special exclusive VIP Sparks performance from him... mystery solved as to why he's made them promote him on everyone's offers...

Sorry my page jumped and I am on the wrong thread

@Someaddedsugar

Does anyone know if there's a live code for the Chocolate Emporium please?

@someaddedsugar Facebook15 was working a few days ago

Day 2 of M&S and like many of you... who is behind the bloody door?
Does the man have no dignity?
It's like a cult. It's like one of those weird psychological tests where they flash images at you for a hundredth of a second to imprint it on your brain.
He's here, he's there, he's everywhere. He's Garrrrrrrrrry Barlowwwwwww. We're going to find ourselves with bland staring eyes getting on little buses with a ham sandwich and a flask and our nearest and dearest will be going "don't do it, you don't even like Gary Barlow" and we'll be going in robotic Stepford voices "M&S made me do it" and our families will have to go on daytime TV with sadfaces.

I like the chat but I don't like sneaky posters sneaking their referrals in. It just makes me go to the referral thread and use someone else's.

Chat alert! Had very frustrating evening yesterday as my 6th delivery of the day was supposed to be my tape dispenser. It went from on its way to "bit of a delay but will be there before 10pm" and is now showing as coming today or tomorrow.

I am STILL waiting for Museums collection parcel ordered on 21st October. Really pissed off now. It had my wrapping paper and cards. Two weeks ago they finally despatched it but it's still taking the piss. I know I'm abroad, but if other retailers can get things to me in 4-5 days, then so can museum shops.

@Darkpheonix

Sorry my page jumped and I am on the wrong thread

Don't worry. I agree with your post 100%!

I’m still waiting for my White Company parcel, I’ve had a dispatch email on 24th November, but when I go to track it Hermes have it marked as they are expecting it. Anyone waiting for White Company orders?
