@TheresNoTelescreen thanknyou! I'll get the vtech then. Now do I buy now or wait to see if it drops in price?! I'm going to get the corkscrew challenge one as he likes lifts and there's a lift bit on it.

Puffalicious · 29/10/2022 21:07

Ordered Paddy and Scott's again- think it was even more of a bargain last year at some point, but still a good price at £22.50. Brother sorted.

Thanks for the heads up on 20% off allbeauty. If anyone needs a nice aftershave at a very reasonable price I can highly recommend Lanvin Sport. DNiece bought it for DS 18 last year as she and her boyfriend rated it. DS has lots of much, much more expensive scents, but he probably loves this as much. It is gorgeous.

Usually £30ish, £25 at moment, with the 20% it's just over £20, qualifying for free delivery.

@LemonFrosting

This one has good reviews

Loulouli · 29/10/2022 21:07

SPIN20 gives you 20% off at Sockshop. There is also free delivery if over £40 and you can choose a gift.

@LemonFrosting I have a lift obsessed one too! Spent yesterday up Blackpool tower 🤣 I have bought the corkscrew one as well. Just got it at the 35.99 because I know marble rush will be the only thing on his Santa list and not sure it will go much lower before Christmas now. They is also a Gravitrax lift add on if you get that in the future.

If anyone happens to spot any other lift/automatic door related toys other than the normal toy garages etc I would be grateful for the heads up thank you!

@Brogues thanks so much! That’s my favourite perfume. As well as the freebie I also ordered a full
size bottle.
The discount is automatically applied at checkout but the code is Bloody22 if anyone needs it.

Thanks for the code, it wasn't coming off automatically for me at checkout. I love their perfumes so really happy to just pay postage

Yes me too, I'm also after lift toys!! I actually made a lift out of two cardboard boxes and a piece of ribbon not that long ago. One box inside the other, and the ribbon pulled the lift up. He loved it!!

We haven't visited the lights at Blackpool this year yet, hoping to go in the next few weeks. I can't remember if it was last year or the year before we went and it was so quiet! Must have been year before as we were out of lockdown last year weren't we?! Anyway!

I'll have a nosey at gravitrax too, thank you!

Does anybody know of any urban outfitters codes for full price items please.. hard to buy for teen ds has asked for a few things but I can't bring myself to pay their prices!
Thank you!

I need a discount on full priced items too if anyone finds one. Thanks

noodledoodler · 29/10/2022 22:18

My oh deer mystery box arrived. Pleased with the contents though there was an unwrapped bar of soap in the box which flaked everywhere so I had to wipe everything down. My DD will love all of the items, mix of lovely jewellery, socks, pens, badges, posh notebook.

TheresNoTelescreen · 29/10/2022 22:22

@LemonFrosting oh what a brilliant lift idea! Will have to get crafty with some boxes and have a go at that! DH is good with electronics and has made automatic doors but he hasn't tackled a lift yet 🤣 I have written a book about the local lifts and their quirks and he loved that, if an actual book about lifts exists I would be very interested if anyone has ever come across one! Sorry for going on about lifts I will shut up now 😂

badbaduncle · 29/10/2022 22:24

@Froppysue that Urban Outfitters sale was anything but little! I lost an hour in there! Haha Spent £100 but got loads of stocking fillers and clothes for DC 17 and 19 :) Thanks

Purpleheadgirl · 29/10/2022 22:40

@TheresNoTelescreen @LemonFrosting Thus might be too old but saw it on amazon and thought it looked good

Does anyone have any ideas for interesting towels. It’s really bath sheets I’m looking for. I wasn’t to get the ds’s one each for swimming/gym showers. Preferably patterned and a different pattern for each of them. T k max had some lovely patterns but not cheap. Perhaps that’s just the cost of towels these days!

I'm a big fan of George/Asda towels, they change pretty often but we've had some really fun ones and prices are good too

Ditto!

Just scrolled for AGES and spent £160! 2 X teen DS - plenty stuff coming and bonus factor is that DH will look ridiculous trying it all on to judge sizes (he's the same size-ish as DS1 and we can judge DS2 who's taller but same size otherwise).🤣😅

Which paddy and Scott’s did you get? I can’t see anything for that price… am after a gift set and wondering if I’m missing a gem! Thanks

coffeeandbiscuittime · 29/10/2022 23:13

Asda have a few Lego sets cheap ( Lego landrover £100 from £175 - which I know isn't cheap but it's cheaper!)

Can you rejoin using the same physical address and name if you use a different email address ? Taken advantage of this offer too many times lol.

Ts&Cs say that you can rejoin after a certain period of time 12-36 months I think depending on what subscription you choose.

Froppysue · 29/10/2022 23:21

@badbaduncle & @Puffalicious haha sorry but glad you both got bargains! I quickly skimmed the gifts/home wear but haven’t looked at much of the clothes yet!

urban outfitters often do codes for those asking for full priced items. I’m always getting sent 10/20% off codes and they do extra codes too sometimes for using the app. Plus student codes if you know anyone who can get you one.

That urban outfitters sale had a cute frog hair towel

Froppysue · 29/10/2022 23:46

@Threeboysandadog asda do lovely bath sheets, they have strawberry ones and star/moon ones just now and a lot of other obscure but nice prints.

Matalan are good for bath sheets too

Froppysue · 29/10/2022 23:47

They also do beach towels like this shark one for £4

buckeejit · 29/10/2022 23:49
