I'm afraid I haven't had a chance to catch up with the thread so sorry if this has already been posted...

The Mina Lima edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone has been reduced to £16. It has only dropped this low once before and only for a few days.

Aside from being gloriously illustrated it also has many fold out and interactive elements.

I bought that mina lima version a few years ago on a black Friday deal for £16.00 and it is beautiful. Hoping that there will be an offer on the Chamber of Secrets as I don't remember it being on offer last year.

Thank you so much! Still had a £5 off £15 voucher so got it for £11. Have had my eye on this for ages

Has anyone seen a chair stacking game in a tin anywhere? We played it in a pub at the weekend & I wanted to try to get the same one as a gift but am guessing it might be old stock now

all topcashback users (and if you’re not one you should be!) note that you will get £2 cashback today on a £5 spend when shopping via TCB, but make sure you go into your account and activate the offer before shopping.

if anyone isn’t already shopping with topcashback, today is the best day to sign up to make some easy money.

Use a referral link from the bargains board to register, then activate the above offer. The £10 referral bonus is paid when you spend £10 but you can buy a gift voucher for somewhere you will shop anyway.

so the best thing to do is get referred, activate the offer, buy a £10 gift voucher for the shop of your choice.

This should get you £10 for the referral (and £10+ spend), £2 for the £5+ spend, the cashback you’d ordinarily get on the purchase of the gift voucher anyway (can’t remember the % offhand) and you still have a £10 voucher to spend - simples!

My own referral link is on the penultimate page of the bargains and referrals page if anyone cares to use it 😃

I signed up following this advice and bought an H&M gift voucher through TCB. However it hasn't tracked, and although I can see in my account that it has recorded a click to H&M at £0 (when I spent £10) it won't let me register a missing cash back claim as it says no recorded click. Really frustrating as I'm guessing I'm going to lose the referral bonus and the £2 bonus if it doesn't accept the purchase. Any ideas on what I did wrong?

I’m not sure to be honest. Mine was slower to track than normal but it did track the following day. Did you definitely activate the offer? That’s the only thing I can think of.

Turtleoo · 31/10/2022 13:38

@AlabamaWorley22 I did definitely activate the £2 for £5 spend, but even if that hadn't worked I should have got the spend tracking to get the referral bonus part. I'm wondering if it's because the H&M gift voucher page was on a different site to the clothes so didn't track properly. Annoying!

ScarierThanBoo · 31/10/2022 13:38

@psuedocream3 That's a smashing idea! May I ask where you got your samples please? I've cut up my fat quarters because there's enough for me and my nieces.

Ah yes that may be it. When people buy a voucher to get this offer they usually do it through top gift card which is one of the sites registered with TCB. If you had to leave the H&M site to buy a voucher then that is probably what has happened. 😬

BloodierMabel · 31/10/2022 13:46

@Turtleoo did you buy the gift card from H&Ms site? If so it won’t be eligible for cashback but if you carry on using TCB for other things I think you’ll still get the referral bonus when you hit £10.

Justhereforthechristmasthreads · 31/10/2022 13:52

Had an email off FindMeAGift - hey have up to 80% off some lines (not entirely sure some of the original prices were justified) but might be some ideas for stocking fillers

Turtleoo · 31/10/2022 14:04

@AlabamaWorley22 @BloodierMabel d'oh I had no idea there was a gift card site. Didn't quite understand it all as a newbie. Will try to remember to use TCB in future. Thanks for your help (and apologies to everyone else for interrupting the bargain chat!)

Thank you both, just bought one for DD and she'll be over the moon. That's a bargain as it's currently £85 at Argos and £60 at Smyths and Amazon. With the 10% discount code I've just paid £26.99

Has anyone seen any Wales Football shirts on offer?

Needtostartover · 31/10/2022 16:08

@Mammillaria Thank you for this. I had things in my basket but by adding this I could finally use the £5 off £15 before it expires. Recipient will love it!

the last time they were on offer was back in May. I doubt they'll be on offer this side of Christmas due to the World Cup. I'm hunting for another 1 also :)

Anyone know of a place to get NBA stuff?
