Has anyone seen any matalan discount codes on their travels please?

I've got a 20% one if you want it.

ThreeB · 01/11/2022 21:23

Oh @Clucket87 that would be fabulous if you aren't going to use it yourself

I've PM'ed you.
I'm not going to use it so I hope it works for you Smile

Anyone looking for 30% off a Toniebox including a free Disney or Peppa Pig Tonie from a selection of characters I have 1 code 😊

Does anyone know where I might get hold of ‘Monster High’ dolls?

I'm not sure if they are still current enough to be sold new, but lots available second hand if that's an option? I bought my dd a bundle of second hand dolls and wrapped in a big box with tissue paper.

ThreeB · 01/11/2022 21:46

@Clucket87 that worked perfectly. Thank you so much

Anyone seen any decent offers on Calvin Klein boxers? Tk maxx seem to be letting my down this year

Thanks for the Duplo tip- was going to buy it at the weekend if they'd had it in my local Smyths. Glad they didn't now! Great for DNephew. Brilliant.

Think Amazon are price matching Argos on this as I bought it a while ago in the Argos 2 for 20 offer

Mrsfussypants1 · 01/11/2022 22:20

@17caterpillars1mouse did you manage to get mama suprise g.pig at the Entertainer? It's now showing as in stock for home delivery.

Got mine from amazon - £16 each

mac1974 · 01/11/2022 23:00

@impossiblerequest Very have photocreator for £56 and I think you can get 20% off if you sign up for their credit. You can just pay it straight away when its due.
I've been looking at these for my 8yo DD but I can't decide. I think I'm struggling because it was her birthday recently & she's still got stuff she really wanted but has hardly touched. It's annoying!

impossiblerequest · 01/11/2022 13:38

My entertainer code never turned up (for a birthday today) and I’ve checked I’m on the mailing list.

I’m looking for the Photo Creator Instant Camera on offer. It’s £56 in Argos but it’s been out of stock for collection and delivery for a week now (for me). It’s full price on Smyths and Amazon. Does anyone know of a Smyths code or another way of getting it cheaper from somewhere that has stock please?

You just missed it being £56 at Smyths, as that's what I paid last week from there. It might drop again.

woodwaj · 01/11/2022 23:13

@DinkyGT try Bentzens emporium I found them selling Goo Jit Zu toys as my son is obsessed. They seem to specialise in monster high though. Delivery took about 3 weeks but I got my things no problem

nickdrakeslovechild · 01/11/2022 23:16

Do we think Smyths will do a black Friday £x off a £x spend this year? Can't remember if they did last year or not.

slipperypenguin · 02/11/2022 00:16

Smyths have got their Black Friday offers online now - discounts across lines but no money off codes

WhereTheresAHill · 02/11/2022 06:00

10% off at Wilko, 12% if spending over £40. Online only

Just ordered one of DS Lego requests. It’s showing as £114 everywhere, but £80 through Amazon EU. They’re quoting a long delivery time, but fingers crossed 🤞

I'd like this please if still available 😊

Sure is, I've pm'd you 😊

This site has lots of bargain kids scandi and organic clothes at the moment, as they're clearing their website. I mean bargain based on the clothes value, as some still look expensive, but compared to their original price, they're really not!
To use the website, select a brand and then tick 'in stock' in the filter menu with the size you need.
This is a small business, the owner is absolutely lovely and the customer service is spot on.
This is a link to the hatley, where there's various Christmas PJ's in stock. My pick of the bunch is Raspberry republic, which is amazing quality, and bonds zippies for babies. Some kids docs reduced and a few wooden toys reduced too.

Thanks NoWordForFluffy and mac1974. It went back up to full price quickly on Smyths but I’ll keep an eye out in case they have another offer on it. I’m surprised Amazon hasn’t dropped its price to price match like they usually do.I’ll have a look at Very but it’s a shop I’ve always avoided because I don’t use credit - I didn’t realise there was a non credit option now.

impossiblerequest · 02/11/2022 07:36

Also, I’ve posted about this separately but if anyone happens to have the Boom City Racer ‘Cop That’ (police car with flashing lights and sounds) spare then I’d love to take it off your hands!

They’re blind toys and my DS7 has been desperate to get his hands on this one for the last year but we’ve had no luck. I’ve found the packaging code to show it’s inside however they’re only sold in The Entertainer around here and they don’t have that one. They aren’t popular now so they’re overpriced in the few shops that stock them online, and obviously you can’t check the codes either.

If anyone spots any in different shops on their travels I’d be grateful to know. I’m hoping they might have made their way to cheaper shops. I’m sure he’d be thrilled with a second hand one, failing that. I’ve also had no luck on second hand selling sites or with the manufacturer (who were great but unable to help) 🙁He hopes Santa will be able to bring him one and it would make his year if he did!

TulipVictory · 02/11/2022 07:55

If anyone has a Range local to them, they have a lot of half price toys in store at the moment. Think they have discounted all of last years stock.

Someaddedsugar · 02/11/2022 08:02

@impossiblerequest I might be going to the entertainer at the metro centre (Gateshead) at the weekend - if you can share the packet code for the car I can have a look in there? Do you know if there are any other shops that sell them? We have an Asda George locally that stocks blind bag items but not sure if they do the cars.
