Thread 10 - crushing grapes underfoot as we sprint towards Christmas

[UnaOfStormhold]

Looks like we need another thread so here goes. I'll stick the usual top of thread messages in a follow on post.

Please don't post affiliate links here, they need to go in the referral thread

@Tinitiny I ordered a Marc Jacobs Perfect gift set and a YSL Libre gift set, both about £20 cheaper than I'd seen elsewhere. As I said it did take a bit longer but I was kept informed of delivery throughout, given Royal Mail tracking and it arrived well packaged with lots of free perfume and cosmetic samples

John Lewis have decent savings on today, ordered a Clarins gift set for my husband cheaper than elsewhere. I think Clarins usually do some freebies and 20% off for black friday but free delivery minimum spend is quite high, and always more than the one gift set I buy.

Thanks for Harry Potter Lego tip! T

John Lewis Black Friday Beauty deals have started. If you sort by % discount you can see the greatest bargains first.

Buy a couple of the Estée Lauder Beauty of the Night skincare gift sets (£39, value said to be worth £104) or any other Estée Lauder beauty items with a total value of £50+ and you can also buy The Estée Lauder Complete Gift Set for £75 (said to be worth £368) which includes “7 full size favourites” with the code ESTEE50. 6 of those “favourites” are makeup, though.

It was me! Thank you! I got £50 off 😄

Has anyone spied a good deal on a decent electric toothbrush?

@paintyhands
Superdrug have half price oral b toothbrushes at the moment
Asda usually do offers too

Thank you @Sisisimone , the Libre one is what I’m after too, plus some others :)

Thank you! Code also stacked with new customer 15% off so got myself the clutch purse I wanted for Xmas.

So I decided I needed to quality check the Smashed Grapes wine last night - I have to say the pouches are on the small size. It was far too easy to swig through 3 without noticing

Two of you lovely lot have used my referrals so I'm busy sending Taster packs to family. I think they are good as little extras / maybe a secret santa gift?

yes, there's been a lot of oodie/not oodie chat, but I think that's the nature of these threads. previous ones had reams of posts about the vans deal, or the smashed grape offer.
perhaps, in the spirit of Christmas, people need to be a little more tolerant and accept they're not going to be interested in every post
that's my wee rant over

I got one last year on a deal. Think it was £50 off (20%) so £200 instead of £250. Worth looking at other outlets that sell them too (e.g Lakeland which is where I got mine from)

Hype has 50% off everything again, with the code FAST50.

It says it’s for the first 50 people, but if it doesn’t work for you I’d wait until they announce it again. It’s the third time they’ve had that offer in recent days or weeks. If you don’t want to wait FAST35 gets the next 75 people 35% off.

I could be wrong, October but theree should be more theatre options. Cardiff is the first theatre listed on mine. if I then scroll down it lists Edinburgh, Southampton, etc etc.

Late to the party but placemarking

I'm really fancying cheese at the moment. Not wine as I've got a little lodger until after Christmas, but I would really like to treat myself to cheese.
Any recommendations for (ideally an amazing deal) cheese tasting boxes/kits/hampers?
Thanks

On amazon

thanks for the Hype code @Yalz - but not quite off everything as doesn't apply to the Harry Potter range
but still managed to get a gift box with body spray and an audio beanie for teen nephew for £12.50

@PregnantandPissedoff I've used cheese geek before and recipient was really pleased with the cheese

Thanks for the John Lewis sale recommendation.

If you download the app and click rewards you get £10 off too!!

Use WINTER20 for 20% over the whole website. I've just bought this nice gift set for 8 quid. Lots on there for mums and new mums. And tired mums lol

My navy blue 5stuff “oodie” arrived in black plastic packaging. The tag on the pocket has been cut off. It’s lovely and thick and I’m not really bothered whether it’s the real thing or not. My son will be happy with it. Now awaiting the green dog one and the avocado one.

EMP have 20% of "almost everything" with SINGLE20 - good for those with goths to buy for but also lots of merch for things like Harry Potter, Stranger Things and Black Panther and even Frozen and Paw Patrol

The ordinary skin care have 23% off all month and free delivery over £25
