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.

I don't know if any of you use shein but if you do please be very wary. They've recently recalled two items for containing dangerous amounts of lead (believe it was a toddlers coat and a toddlers bag). They've also recalled stuff for not meeting fire safety requirements. There's a tab on the site where you can see what they've recalled if you're worried.

On a happier note, if you're looking for a lovely Christmassy family read I can thoroughly recommend The Christmas Pig by JK Rowling, it's magical and wonderful and nostalgic.

Did I see a discount code for Kidly? Or does anyone know of one please? Or a student discount? Thank you.

@SFisnotsimple

Not entirely Christmas related, but trying to add stuff to my Ocado order has been fraught - a trip in the car to Sainsbury's and they had everything. Not talking anything weird - cat food, cinnamon sticks, pistachios! Not sure what is going on with Ocado.
They're in my bad books this week too. No chocolate biscuits in my delivery. Apparently they had no substitutes. For biscuits FFS Xmas Hmm

I did get the Percy Pig musical tin though for £8.50. Saved me having to get to M&S to get it (and only 50p more)

@Froppysue Doooo iiiitt! (Imagine this in a whispered tone!)

BooRadleyIsFree · 08/12/2021 14:38

Does anyone know how to get stock alerts? I'm trying to buy an Xbox series X, which are so hard to come by. Any help would much appreciated 😊

thaegumathteth · 08/12/2021 14:42

@BooRadleyIsFree you can sign up to stockinformer which I have for the same reason but I haven't managed to get one yet

BooRadleyIsFree · 08/12/2021 14:44

@thaegumathteth Thank you so much. How long have you been waiting? You'd think they'd release loads so that they get lots of money!

Marlboroandmalbec34 · 08/12/2021 14:46

Marlboroandmalbec34 · 08/12/2021 14:47

Stock informer. Curry's and very have has some stock this week and also simply games. Seem to be bundles though which add up to £££'s

Does anyone know where I can pick up a nice weekend bag, classy around the £50 mark? Thank you

Wow this site has some good bargains. Trying to remind myself I've bought enough 😂

HulahoopsBBQbeef · 08/12/2021 15:36

@MadeForThis I also was in the same predicament re happy nappers especially reading some of the reviews. I ended up buying the Costco copy ones although they still cost me £60 for the two. This was around one month ago. I’m really impressed with the quality so far

Marlboroandmalbec34 · 08/12/2021 15:39

I don’t know if I put this on an earlier thread but check your Neom boxes from look fantastic. Mine had 2 items missing. They did part refund me but I was gutted. Just in case anyone has wrapped it for Xmas without checking x

Youvegotafriendinme · 08/12/2021 15:53

@AnimalTheDrummer I’ve been in 2 works in the last 3 days and both of them had it and it was £3. I’m Kent if that makes a difference.

To the lady looking for the primark XL mens pyjamas. (So sorry I can’t remember your name!) I have been looking for you and only ladies and kids left in the ones I’ve been in but I’m going to bluewater Sunday and it’s a much bigger store so will look for you then and let you know.

Could anyone recommend a seller on Etsy good for bath bombs please. I usually use Mrs bubble on Facebook but I only need 2 bath bombs and it’s £4 for delivery.

Araisaris · 08/12/2021 15:59

@Froppysue this candle is beautiful.

Adelais · 08/12/2021 16:02

@MummyPig89 Please could i have the Matalan code if you still have it

Ourlady · 08/12/2021 16:23

@MulticolourTriangles what about Moshulu for slippers. Definitely bright, various styles and very comfortable.

MummyPig89 · 08/12/2021 16:24

Just pm’d you

BooRadleyIsFree · 08/12/2021 16:32

@Bellie99 Thanks for that. There's none in stock anywhere anymore.

NisekoWhistler · 08/12/2021 16:34

Has anyone seen any bargains on Clarin's Eau Dynamiste please?

FilthyforFirth · 08/12/2021 16:34

Thank you all for the chopsticks recs, am going to have a google now!

In return here is 20% off buy a gift. Single use, I got it for leaving something in my basket, but I changed my mind.

Has anyone used Just My Look website before and can vouch for it? Thanks

Yeknom · 08/12/2021 16:48

I've just dragged all the presents from the loft and my 6 year old needs an extra gift 🙄. Her younger brother has got some 'exciting' big boxed toys so need to get one more thing.
I'd prefer not to go cheapy and actually get something she'd use/play with. Any ideas? I was thinking Lego but of course have now missed all the bargains! Any other suitable suggestions - or directions to cheap Lego Grin (so hard to pay full price when you know what the discounted previous costs have been!!).

Thanks all! x
