Thread 2 - the one with a bath humbug.

[Reastie]

Ho ho ho and welcome to the bargain Christmas thread - home of the discounts for Christmas shopping.

They sound lovely colours.

Ohh ,I think pale green was the one I was trying to describe!

Another sheep here… three pairs of fingerless gloves ordered from eBay 🐑

Don’t think it’s been mentioned. 20% off with a £40 spend at Matalan with code FLASH.

@RainbowZebraWarrior it really is your finest hour! And especially now with rising fuel prices, we’ll all have snuggly hands :). I’m trying to decide whether £7.99 on cashmere gloves is too extravagant on my kids (I’d ask for slim fit I guess)

Thanks @RainbowZebraWarrior, I've also joined the 🐑and have ordered some eBay Turtle Doves!

For those looking for Lego advent calendars, I've posted referral codes for IWOOT and Zavvi on the referrals thread in case they're helpful for anyone looking for a saving:

Turtle doves 🐑 here. 4 pairs on the way

You'll really be able to spot the people from this thread - kids in Dino onesies and grownups in cashmere gloves glugging back gin like it was £9.95 a bottle inc snacks and mixers 🤣

Maybe we could organise a turtle doves swap thread if people get colours they don't want?

QVC have a great deal on the Dyson Corale straighteners

My eBay pair… I put a note on asking for stripey ones if possible, and look at these beauties. Only issue I can see is that one of the tags is only half attached.

@Christmasiscominghohoho
I got mine yesterday and they are black with a very thin cream stripe down one side. I can't even see the fault. I've just ordered 2 more pairs.

Sorry if I've missed it but what is the eBay turtle doves link?

Ah, my turtle doves order from ebay last week has arrived, posted first class.

I ordered four pairs and the small package contained only one, a plain black one. That pair is very narrow and I can’t get my hand in them, although the ones I get from their website have always been big enough.

Anyone with small hands up for a swop, or a gift, some time when all our orders have arrived and we know what we have?

Oh no, I've requested slim for mine. Hope they're not tiny

My second gin has been delivered!

Gin and cashmere. We sound so fancy 😂

Love this thread!!!!

That might be a good idea.

i reallly don’t want orange, purple, blue, etc

(I’m not fussy I swear😂)

I love black. I’d be very happy with them!

My craft gin has arrived. I got the cotton gin. But disappointed with the snacks but the gin itself is worth £35 so can't complain at that. I also like the try the recipes from the magazine as it's nice to get new ideas. Think I'll sample it tonight. Yummy.

I ordered 2.
One for myself and one to my mum
house for her. Hers arrived today and Iv still had nothing except this email from Royal Mail yesterday.

@Christmasiscominghohoho I like purples and blues so I'd happily swap with you

They've been on strike plus the bank holiday so my second gin was delayed but here now.

I don't drink gin but DM and DMIL do so that's them sorted!

I ordered one pair of ebay turtle doves and have received two pairs, one light grey with a small hole and a pale blue with no obvious flaw. Was planning on gifting to my mum for Xmas but think they will both be too snug for her so I will have to keep them

Regarding the gloves, it says in the description that they don't have the turtle doves label on. Has anyone that's ordered from ebay had the labels on them?
Buying as a gift and would prefer a turtle doves tag on.
