Thread 4 - the one with the pick up and take along gran

[Reastie]

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

Thanks @tabbycat985 for the title

If you have a referral link for a website, do post it on this thread

See post 2 for some (hopefully) useful links.

Not really bargainous exactly but White Company have free delivery on all orders until midnight on Monday. Rare to get anything at all from them.

Thanks @recklessgran - that's my team members sorted!

Joules have 25% off everything.

Liberty have up to 30% off (mainly 10 and 20% from what I've seen) - sadly nothing on the Christmas decorations though. Although if you do sign up to the Beauty drop you get free postage on all orders.

Can anyone help me find a wooden rainbow please? I don't have grimms money! Preferably a larger one that die cast cars can use, but also preferably the non varnish finish so they can be stacked. Shopping for an 11 month old (father Christmas present) with an almost 4 year old brother! There are loads on ebay/amazon but they all seem to be unstackable due to shine.

@Blessedbethefruitz Smyths have a 12 piece rainbow £19.99 and some other wooden bits that are lovely

I’ve got a few bits I want from Lisa Angel - any ideas if there is likely to be a sale on?

@Blessedbethefruitz you might be able to get a second hand grimms one on Facebook there are a few selling groups on there. I think Aldi have a wooden rainbow in atm www.aldi.co.uk/little-town-wooden-stacking-rainbow/p/721632645962900 But it looks like it might be shiny!

The smyths rainbow looks itentical to me but £40 cheaper

Not really a bargain but picked up some bits today for my daughter & step daughter for Xmas.
I think it was all pretty cheap anyway.

The thing with a F on is a little jewellery box. It was £4
Foot masks were £1 each and so was the friends trivia picture quiz

My daughter is into all that zodiac stuff at the moment. I also picked up a trinket tray last week.

The Smyths one is the beta I've found so far too. Was just looking for discount codes there but they don't seem to exist!

We don’t have the rainbow in this (we have a grimms one I won in a competition) but we have semi circles in this and they are lovely so I’d recommend the brand!
little stars (sold via Amazon)
Not cheap but cheaper than grimms, great quality

When do I cancel the ok beauty box? Straight after ordering or once it's arrived or some other time

£20 per month subscription goes into your own liberty piggy bank for use on anything in store or online at any time. Once a quarter they’ll send you a beauty box. There’s a spoiler thread in style and beauty. Free p&p on all orders and usually a 24hour preview of sales etc.

@Blessedbethefruitz I picked up the Aldi rainbow the other week, I think it's smaller than the Grimm's one and much more pastel coloured. Looks pretty good though and they also had imitations of those pebble toys that are all over insta.

I cancelled mine as soon as I got the confirmation email.

Thanks! I will look into it.

I’m a pre school manager and we have a Smyths rainbow and it’s fantastic ! Gets used everyday, and has held up to being dropped/thrown/stood on by lots of children, it stacks, does have a slight sheen to it compared to the grimms but I prefer it as it hasn’t marked at all.
My little girl has got the little peg people in pots which she loves from Smyths too.

Have checked and it has a slight sheen but stacks ok.

Heads up if anyone else like me was waiting ....... kids Gryffindor hoodies are now in stock

For nonVIPs the Next sale starts this morning. 6am online, 7 and in shops.

*7am in shops.

Did anyone buy the Dunelm reindeer hoodie? Would it fit a size 20 lady?

Also advice for best educational toys for reception boy.

Thanks

@Neednewfloor I have a different print (size 20/22) it fits me and would probably fit my husband too! They are huge

Smyths it is for the rainbow then, thanks!!
