I've held out for Black Friday on the very small chance that Smyths might have a code / blanket reduction. I know it's unlikely but has anyone seen any before I make a large order?

Nope I've been looking for one too. Not sure whether to old out for a bit longer in case of any discounts before Christmas.

Can anyone recommend a Marvel themed gift for an 11 year old girl. She’s quite young for her age if that makes a difference, and still at primary school.

DamitJamit · 25/11/2022 14:20

I would love a popcorn slab code if anyone has one they could pm me. Tia

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 25/11/2022 14:20

@Geansai thank you so much! A well travelled case makes more sense that a well packed case 😆

@Carrie76 have you had a look at Pro Direct Soccer? I've ordered from them a few times or Puma?

Hi - has anyone seen Lego Speed Champions on offer?

bluelavender · 25/11/2022 14:21

Could anybody please Pm a code for the popcorn slab? I’d really appreciate it ❤️

Yoyoyo1 · 25/11/2022 14:21

Also looking for a cheaper price on this kids' smart watch?

Who was after a bargain dryrobe?

Zone 3 ones (excellent) are 50% off today. Total bargain.

LiverbirdNo1 · 25/11/2022 14:22

@usernotfound0000 Yes we play card games more often but also Snakes and Ladders, Frustration etc and he has no problem with those so hopefully he’d pick it up quite quickly!

Ive had the Playmobil police Headquaters with prison set in my basket from the playmobil site £55.99 waiting to see if anywhere else reduced it cheaper today, now its OOS. The blue week price offer is on until Mon but dont know if it will come back in stock in time.
Anyone seen it anywhere else near £55😞

Epictantrum · 25/11/2022 14:24

Thanks to whoever alerted me to the Quidco/argos £25 cash back on >£100, I got my lego so fingers crossed the cash back will track OK.

MammaRoly · 25/11/2022 14:25

@LiverbirdNo1 I bought Ticket to Ride Europe last Christmas based on the recommendations on this thread. Then DS was 9 and DD nearly 8. We simplified the game the first few times of playing, ignoring ferries and tunnels and treating them just like train journeys until they (I) had got the hang of it, and now they both play strategically and love it.

imnottoofussed · 25/11/2022 14:25

Damn they've cottoned on at turtle doves and the code has apparently reached its limit

Epictantrum · 25/11/2022 14:26

Do people find that camelcamelcamel is accurate? I haven't been sent a single alert despite some prices going down and it doesn't seem to be picking up Black Friday prices. I've found out from my amazon wish lists instead.

SanFairyAnnie · 25/11/2022 14:27

Has someone already mentioned Molton Brown 25 per cent off today?

Changingagain · 25/11/2022 14:29

@LiverbirdNo1 ds 7 can play it. First game he got upset at the end because he misunderstood his tickets, next game he teamed up with DH to help him understand, after that he's fine with it. The rules seem a bit overwhelming to start with but it's a good game for adults and kids 5+ in my opinion.

@CornishGem1975 I've gone for it now as there were already some bits gone out of stock and I didn't want to risk missing out on the big ones.

ChristmasCwtch · 25/11/2022 14:39

Just a check in 👋

Wallaroo21 · 25/11/2022 14:39

I have a popcorn vodaphone code feel free to pm me for it

Merrow · 25/11/2022 14:39

Cycle Sprog have a round up of black Friday deals on kids bikes - Vitus and bike club ones look particularly good, I'm sitting on my hands to make sure I don't get DS the next size up in advance!

LazyDaisy22 · 25/11/2022 14:47

FM785V6 Popcorn code. 59 minutes to use it

sorryiasked · 25/11/2022 14:51

Vodafone codes can we please have these in a separate thread as previously done otherwise this one gets full of them. * *

I find it accurate although a bit behind in updating their prices. Sometimes I'll add something to a price watch and see that it is showing at a lower price on camel than in Amazon, almost like it hasn't updated to the latest Amazon price IYSWIM. I just use it as a guide/nudge but on black Friday usually have a scroll down my wishlist to instantly see what is on discount.
