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.

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 Thanks

@Famousthehero - those are all fabulous ideas, thank you so much! And I think you're right - a wander around Home Bargains or B&M will probably sort it out. Xmas Grin

@BarryBob77 I do t have one but noticed this reduced and it has good reviews

Can anyone remember what the dupe was for the magic cauldron please

noscoobydoodle · 14/12/2021 06:41

@slithytoveisascientist - was it the buki wizard chemistry experiment set?

@theclockticksslowly this is a new encyclopaedia out this winter and it’s beautifully presented inside to make it a lovely read. I’d say perfect for age 9 too.

@FilthyforFirth I’ve PMed you a £5 off £50 voucher code if any use?

theclockticksslowly · 14/12/2021 07:19

Thank you for all the suggestions of a book for my DD. I shall take a closer look at them all!

@Getoutofbed25

Use this code at Tile to get a tile mate for about £11 free postage

Great for a teenager’s stocking

TILE-FRFAM-2021

Where from please?
FilthyforFirth · 14/12/2021 07:58

@catsarebetterthandogs9 thank you so much! Spent more than I was planning to but got 2 Christmas presents and ordered myself a coat Grin Thank you again Xmas Smile

newroundhere · 14/12/2021 08:18

It was directly from Tile but I think a PP said they had sold out now

newroundhere · 14/12/2021 08:19

Sorry, that was for Autumnleaves4

I've bought a velvetiser and I remember people recommended alternative and cheaper flakes but no idea which thread so thought I'd ask again. I also need vegan recommendations for it too. Thanks so much

Thegoldgrind · 14/12/2021 09:01

£5 off at Hobbycraft if anyone can use the code! Valid until the 19th

M&s flakes were recommended on here but I found them too sweet.

@Yuledo

Thanks to whoever said about the two raspberry Smirnoff vodkas for £20 at Asda. That is ds’s favourite drink.
@Yuledo that was me - glad it helped. I tried it on Saturday and can confirm that it's very nice (but dangerously non-alcoholic tasting as expected!).
VividImaginationAgain · 14/12/2021 09:43

@Thegoldgrind thank you. I have used your code and ordered the chemistry table of elements jigsaw for ds3. His chemistry teacher will be proud of me!

Has anyone used their Papier referral code £10 yet. I can’t see how to do it! Thanks.

Notlongnow1 · 14/12/2021 09:43

I could cry! The Buki Wizard Chemistry set I was so blooming excited about has just been cancelled 4 days after ordering with just a refund and 'sold out' on invoice. Anyone seen it in stock anywhere else?!

MiniatureHotdog · 14/12/2021 10:00

Enormous cat squishmallows in my local B&M this morning if anyone was still looking

herestoyoucolinrobinson · 14/12/2021 10:05

@notlongnow1 oh no! I've looked but can't see it in stock other than at ridiculous prices. There's another wizard one on amazon but tbh it looks terrible in comparison.

MiniatureHotdog · 14/12/2021 10:05

Also, they have a hulk goo jit zu, the non glow in the dark one which I'm sure a poster was after a few threads ago??

Notlongnow1 · 14/12/2021 10:06

@herestoyoucolinrobinson thanks. May have to rethink!

herestoyoucolinrobinson · 14/12/2021 10:28

@notlongnow1 www.fanthome.com/en/buki-wizard-chemistry.html

Should arrive in 2 - 4 days it says...

Notlongnow1 · 14/12/2021 10:33

@herestoyoucolinrobinson thanks just a little nervous about possible import fees. Anyone have any experience of that recently?
There is one on marketplace for a very bargainous £8 but in stoke on trent! - says collection only but have messaged on the off-chance they may be feeling particularly kind!

GraceTime · 14/12/2021 10:35

So I'm not going to do any more of the admittedly very little 'real' shopping anymore. I had planned a trip to the works this week for a week by week a4 diary. They are on sale but I don't need anything else from there and don't want to pay the postage online which will be more than the cost of the diary. Any ideas on where I can pick up a diary online without paying postage. I don't need a fancy one, just a practical one. Thanks
