Title because the last one’s nearly used up and I haven’t got time to do my usual picking of a title, sorry.

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.

@CeeceeBloomingdale I've PMd you a Boden code that may work if you are still needing it.

Any advice on scooters gratefully received... DS1(6) has just decided that he'd like a new scooter to replace his beloved Spiderman one, which he grew out of a few months ago. However he'd prefer a 3 wheel one (and would love a light up one like the Evo!) and most of the reviews say that he'd be better off getting a two wheel one as he's quite tall (around 122cm) - not sure whether to get him the 3 wheel even knowing that he'll grow out of it soon?! Can't find anything second hand near us either, unfortunately Xmas Confused

I don’t suppose anyone knows of a discount code for Fat Face do they at all please?

I do have a Hotel Chocolat discount code for £5, £10 or £20 off depending on how much is spent if anyone needs it Xmas Smile

AzraiL · 13/12/2021 11:28

Both names are gorgeous, as are the nicknames. Honestly I would recommend you just go with the one you prefer the most.

AzraiL · 13/12/2021 11:29

Whoops wrong thread, apologies!

nova99 · 13/12/2021 11:30

I've tried these and they did nothing whatsoever, I was so disappointed!
PinkDaydreams · 13/12/2021 12:57

@WeeFae oh no!! Luckily they are only for mine and DH Xmas stocking Grin

herestoyoucolinrobinson · 13/12/2021 13:19

Anyone else with parcels stuck at the hermes hubs, mine went from being at the hub on the 4th straight to out for delivery today (not here yet though...). Nothing in between at all. So hopefully everyone's stuff will arrive.

Blueberryflavour · 13/12/2021 13:20

Following on from the disappointing BM shower steamers mentioned above what brand / type would people recommend. Just realised that they would make a great wee gift for a friend. Anything a bargain price even better.

Sunsetsupernova · 13/12/2021 13:23

Has anyone had any success with trying to retrieve their Royal Mail parcels from the sorting office? I’ve got an Etsy order that just says “we will provide an update when we attempt to deliver” but it was posted first class 10 days ago so I’m wondering if they’re likely to have it sat at the sorting office or if it’s just lost

I have ordered these as an absolute bargain but I have no idea about quality.

Picklesbaby · 13/12/2021 13:38

@Sunsetsupernova that generally means they havnt tried to deliver it yet . I ordered from not on the high street mine said that for 2 weeks, they emailed to say it would be Friday , it came on the Saturday they left a card x

ILikeBiscuits · 13/12/2021 13:41

Tu clothing (Sainsbury’s) has a 50% off sale and says things will be added during the week.

Free click and Collect from Sainsbury’s if you spend £20+

ILikeBiscuits · 13/12/2021 13:43

Free Click and Collect on Tu clothing over £20, that is, not groceries etc.

Sunsetsupernova · 13/12/2021 13:44

Thanks @Picklesbaby perhaps there’s still hope yet then! I’ll give it a few more days

I decided to go for micro maxi and its great. You've got at least couple of years use with 3wheeler too and they are more stable, there are some that can be used by adults in gobbler range. I did a lot of reading if micro is out of budget, have a look at gobbler. They have a nice comparison tool if you google "compare gobbler scooters/best gobbler for 6year old" another one is 3style which is copy of micro.

With regards to sending and receiving parcels in the last few weeks. I had two that said this for over 10 working days, and then all of a sudden they got delivered on the same day! The one I was sending was an eBay order that I had already had to refund. So I would say there is defo some issued there, which is understandable.
