I ordered DS the 2021 smiggle advent calendar earlier from Next -£20.

From my research they retail around the £25 mark

@NightOwl101 it depends what she likes. Jellycat is very popular atm. Also glosser for skincare and makeup bits but wait till Black Friday as they have 20% off! Glossier do really nice lip balms which would be suitable for a 10 year old, and they come in a lovely bag! I'm thinking about what my DD would like.
American candy, Japanese snacks, Starbucks gift card and they do a pack of coloured cups. An oddie, body mists, lush gift box.

Lots of items still in the Sale on the Emma Ball website - click on “Products” and then “Sale.”

I’ve stocked up on age cards starting at 50p, originally £1.95 - £2.40.

There’s even a special Christmas sale section.

Free delivery over £30.

@NightOwl101 my 11yo loves stationery, nice bath stuff, hair accessories, hot water bottle, snuggly socks, agree with oodie. She also loves blankets!

@AverageJoan that ugg sale is great! Got myself some slippers for £36 inc delivery. Time to replace my current ones as my toe is nearly through the end of them
There were a couple of other bits I fancied but yesterday I told my DH I was putting myself on a spending ban. Not sure why i said that tbh.

Can anyone recommend the cheapest way of bulk buying Christmas teddy bears?

Fivemoreminutes1 · 29/06/2022 05:35

Sale on at The Body Shop, with many items half price. Body butters down to £2.

PinkDaydreams · 29/06/2022 07:51

Does anyone know if asda have a clothing sale for school uniform items before September please? There was 20% off a few weeks back.

Yeknom · 29/06/2022 08:28

@PinkDaydreams not sure on ASDA but I think Aldi's is soon?! Might not be helpful but I'm sure I've seen an ad for theirs x

Thanks for this code, just ordered 2x pairs of slippers for birthday and Christmas!

Ourlady · 29/06/2022 10:29

Thank you for the Ugg sale info. Xmas slippers ordered at a great price.

I'm trying to be super organised this year so starting early, I normally join the Christmas bargain threads but with price rises and so on I need to start earlier this year.

Any suggestions for a 10 year old girl?

Also Argos have quite a few reductions on WWE toys, figures discounted from £10 to £5 and over 20 different ones but you can't choose. I have order numerous before and when I've had the same they've swapped them in store at the time

Really depends what she’s into. My 10yo is obsessed with beanie boos at the moment (we are outside uk) so are all of her friends here, but her English friends are all about their phones. She’s asked for a Xmas themed beanie boo for Xmas.

Shes into her video games too and I’ve managed to get her an Xmas themed character from one of her games. I saw some anime colouring books in The range she will definitely like. She’s asked for a sewing machine and more art stuff as she likes trying to draw illusion art and anime characters. And she loves roller staking.

she’s started to make efforts to take care of herself, I bought her some small bottles of Ted baker body spray from boots for her birthday and she’s been using them. She’s also started using face wash & likes face masks so I’m going to start picking bits up and make my own gift pack for her.

Also anything Harry Potter themed always goes down well.

Just been to B&M & they are having a huge toy sale, I was gutted I had my little ones with me so this was all I could sneak into the cart! It has obviously been on a few days because there were so many empty shelves but it might be worth a trip if you're near a store!

The inflatable chair was £3.50, the chopping board set was £1.

I was totally confused by "the old man fashioned -hattan" who designed that!?

NightOwl101 · 29/06/2022 15:05

Thank you for the tips!

She's currently starting to take an interest in pampering herself with face masks, painting nails and has started having more of a interest in clothes which makes a change from her normal anything will do motto she loves a Costa so I might see if there are any nice cups for her age range. She's into horses, going off Lego

FluffyFluffMonster · 29/06/2022 16:12

This is one of the packs of cups and they colour change which is pretty cool! Is Starbucks though.
Morphe do good sales for cheap makeup palettes so keep an eye out.
Maybe some nice makeup brushes too! You can get some cheap sets about.

Those Starbucks cups are cool. Are they instore only? Do you know how much they are?
