Thread 6 - the one with the long shit

[Reastie]

Thanks @shash1982 for the thread title!

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

See post 2 for some (hopefully) useful links.

Another thanks for the WH Smith code. Don't forget to go through Quidco for 6% cashback too!

Did a big WHSmith order yesterday. I'm gutted, I thought there were no codes this year 🥲

@Franticbutterfly me too, big Smith's shop in-store. Oh well, had some good deals including a free specific book with the new Richard Osman one that I wanted anyway (which was half price) and a load of half price new hardbacks.

I've also got 10 imaginary children 🤣 I've just done an order for dd1's 14th birthday! She requested cats vs pickles and a funko mozzarella cow! Then i added these for dd2 and my friends little one for Christmas, great price and even better with 20% birthday code off on top!

TK Maxx had the wooden princess playsets in that are quite nice, plus a few other bits:

Obviously it varies in local stores but they do seem to have quite a variety online too.

Same for me.

I did click and collect in the end.

Look on the Disney website - I got a repunzal doll in a cot and Ariel in a boat. Both were 50% off and were about £32.50. Came in absolutely huge boxes, especially the repunzal - so definitely the wow factor Christmas morning. Also, there's Disney wooden castle which keeps going down to £40 on Amazon.

Sorry *@coolpattern I lose track on here!
if you get one done I’d love to know who you use if it works out well as might be interested myself sometime. As I said Yorkshire Pet portraits look good but I don’t know anyone who has actually used them.

They are the best wee babies!

Does anyone know where to pick up reasonably priced Hull City or Hull FC shirts? On one of the first threads someone shared a link to a site but they just had the main clubs and not Hull.

Alternatively, any bargainous Hull related gifts would be appreciated. It's to tie in with a gift I'm getting for DF who is from Hull. He has a favourite photograph of his long gone parents and it's in the window in his bedroom (looking out to sea, it's where he likes to sit and talk to them) so it's gone super faded. I've found a company that restores old photographs so I'm going to grab a a snap of the photo, get it restored and reframed and gift it with something hull related. Is the plan anyway!

@sittingonacornflake Not necessarily bargains but Retro Clasico have a few bits

Retro Clasico

@Justhereforthechristmasthreads oooh I remember when they were sponsored by ABI caravans - blast from the past! Thanks!

@RainbowZebraWarrior Superdrug always shows as charging for delivery until you literally pay - I’m a member and it shows as £3 delivery for me until I confirm payment then the delivery charge comes off - no idea why?

Whoop, I made thread title! 😊😂

Thanks @Reastie

@shash1982 winning at Christmas shopping life!! I’d definitely buy a lottery ticket 😂

DH is at the office today. Really hoping my ridiculously large Smiggle order for DCs arrives, so I can open and hide it without him seeing it 😆

TU have 20%off kids clothes - including princess costumes for those looking 👑

20% off kids clothing is on at Sainsbury's. There's a minimum order amount for free click and collect through them but if you order it through the Argos site there isn't- handy if you're only getting a few bits.

Hotel chocolat codes (assume generic)

Avatar Lego price drop on Amazon - first banshee flight down to £30 from £49.99

@LuckyLamp if you don't mind a digital version readly always has nee subscribers deals that give you a month free so you can look at all Christmas magazines that way.

@LuckyLamp if you’ve got a library card you can read magazines on an app for free. You’d have to sign up, download the app etc but I read about 20 magazines a month for nowt, including Good Housekeeping, all the good ones.

I’ve just used someone’s spicery referral and it is indeed taking 20% of

putting mine in the thread thanks

Amazing, thank you @livinginhope87 and @Irritatedmum

I never used to think twice about picking up a magazine, but now it seems like an unnecessary extravagance!!

Sorry, I meant to tag @lifelongfrugaleer there!! Thanks 😊

Thank you. I felt like I was going mad!

My phone doesn't help. It's from the dark ages. I should do myself a favour and treat myself to a new one for Christmas 😊

I’ve asked for mine to be removed now so hopefully others will get used.

Don’t think I need any more £5 off codes but thanks to anyone that used it 😀
