I bought off eBay couple years ago. Just need to place them carefully over the normal label.

I'm now looking for specifically:

Over ear head phones - need recommendations too as I don't have a clue. Budget about £100. Can't be too huge.

Vintage football tshirts.

32/ 37inch Smart TV. I know BF coming up, but wondered if anyone had seen good deals already?

Also, do Jaques of London ever do free postage?

Thank you, you lovely lot x

@RainbowZebraWarrior I bought the Degustabox advent yesterday for £25 via Groupon (I also went via TCB but that will just be an extra bonus if it pays out). I think someone mentioned getting it a bit cheaper a few threads ago, but their code didn't work for me (plus they possibly included the cashback in their final price), so I was happy with approx £1 per item. I used the code on the Groupon home page.

Someone was asking about a photo blanket, this has just popped up, not sure in quality etc

@Puffalicious jaques of London are on Amazon with free delivery depending on what it is you want?

Thank you. That's so helpful. I'm on it now.

Have you tried surprise shirts?

Thanks. I checked that put but their prices are a good bit higher on Amazon than on their direct site..I'm a previous customer so also get a little more off, but there is space for a code at checkout and I wondered if anyone had one?

Trouble is, it's only one item I need at £11.99 and am being grumpy over P&P🙈

I haven't! Thanks.

@RainbowZebraWarrior at the risk of stating the bleeding obvious - if you do buy it from Groupon, you get a code which you need to put into the main Degustabox site when you order, and it brings the total to £0.00 including postage. You only get 2 or 3 days to use the Groupon code.

@Puffalicious I've got the terrace store bookmarked for football themed gifts. Worth a look anyway.

Asda today had a sharp 32 inch smart tv in for £130

@Puffalicious although it is a surprise what you get but that's part of the fun! Sure they have a vintage section though x

clpsmum whilst that looks a great site, I need a specific team in a vintage design. Thanks for trying.

Schuh usually do Black Friday offers. Also, keep an eye on Amazon. I'm watching the Ugg slippers I'm after on both sites, plus the Ugg site to see who comes up with the better deal.

It does depend if you're looking for latest style, obviously. I'm kicking myself, however as my Mum asked for the 'slippers that Helena Bonham-Carter wears in the sofa ads' They went down to £25 on Amazon recently, then went out of stock as I dithered.

Thanks miniroll and hiredand squeak! I'm on it like a bonnet!

Got my ds1 sennhieser headphones a couple of years ago which have been used everyday since - Amazon about £80

I recently had a 38" samsung TV for £300 from AO.com.

I'll look up seinnheiser now. Thanks!

Thank you to @wewishyouamerrychristmas for mentioning the Clinique offers at M&S

If you spend £45+ on Clinique you can buy this gift set for £65. It contains 2 travel bags, plus items with total RRP of £215.

If you buy 2 Clinique items (and the £65 gift set counts as one of these) a free gift set worth £40 is automatically added to your basket.

I considered buying this gift set for £50, supposedly worth £100. If I had I would have spent £115 on 3 gift sets containing items reportedly worth £355.

There seem to be a lot of Clinique offers around. I’ve seen them at Boots and John Lewis as well as M&S.

@RainbowZebraWarrior thanks for the Degusta info, it would have expired if I didn't read that.

Does anyone happen to have a student code or something similar for Schuh? Would be very grateful

@Puffalicious try Scoredraw for vintage shirts, I've had a few from there. Great quality.

Thought this little £6 polly pocket gymnastics set would make a nice wee gift. here at amazon

I've just been on John Lewis to snap some beauty bargains (thanks to the pp who gave the heads up - got Clinique, Aveda gift sets and a Hush jumpsuit for yours truly).

I did notice they had BF offers on Samsung TVs, might be worth a punt.

Great thread title
