https://shoreusable.com/products/sho-mystery-box are offering a mystery box with three items and a treat for £32.99 apparently worth £70

Anyone got a spare £5 Argos code I didn’t get one despite having two accounts!

CornishGem1975 · 25/11/2022 07:26

Ooh thanks @SwimmingFree I've wanted to get some of those pjs

I have a moral dilemma.

DD has just announced that she wants to ask Santa for the big unicorn Polly Pocket.

Here on Argos

My dilemma is;
Do I pay £24.99 at Argos, but use all Nectar points?
Or;
Pay £4 less (£20.99) on Amazon, but pay cash.

There probably isn't much else I'll use my Nectar points for this year, other than Sainsbury's food shopping for Christmas.

But it feels wrong to choose to pay more 😭

@Vebrithien I'd use my Nectar vouchers as then you're effectively getting it free. There's also 5x Nectar points at Argos this weekend so they're actually paying you to buy it as you'd get 125 Nectar points back for a £0 spend

buckeejit · 25/11/2022 07:28

Lots of good bird games on offer at Amazon - I have lots on my wish list.

Please does anyone know if azul is different enough to qwirkle? Want a game each for dc but would like them to be a bit different

Oooh, does that actually work? Can you earn Nectar points, even when you use your Nectar balance to pay for the order?

I had completely discounted that idea, as I know you can't get any Boots Advantage points, if you are using them to pay.

If so, the extra points might swing it to Argos!

My son (10) is looking for a PSV away jersey only place I can find if is on their official website. I’ve just about come to terms with the cost of it but they want £20 delivery too. Any ideas where I’d get it cheaper??

Is it the PSV Eindhoven Football top you're looking for?

@Carrie76 try kitbagg*, I've used them loads for various kits for my DS

Carrie76 · 25/11/2022 07:37

@Arewesureitisntbedtime yep the away one

Carrie76 · 25/11/2022 07:37

And he wants Xavi Simons name on it! Only thing he’s asked for

PlainJaneSuperBrain99 · 25/11/2022 07:38

Christmas Sacks are down to £14 each for BF, in case you desperately wanted one and couldn't get a code.

Any recommendations for an iPad keyboard and pen? Or Black Friday deals?

Not so barginous but I have the apple keyboard and it's brilliant, never had any problems with it. My DD has one off Amazon wasn't very barginous and it was a waste of money.

I have a 10% code for apple online if it's any use

I would pay cash and keep the points
For Christmas food shop

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 25/11/2022 07:42

@woodwaj
I’ll look there thanks!

@DinosaurOfFire
Delilah fields or Sabrina st cloud from one list. I don’t have the other list to hand. But the green one from the vision series is coming to mind! From what I can gather it’s the same girls but different clothes, for a lot of them? Personally the shadow ones appeal to my inner goth…

SweetPeaPods · 25/11/2022 07:44

Wow thread 15, I can't keep up. Anyone know if there is a specific post for Bf deals, or are they just being added here?

Carrie76 · 25/11/2022 07:45

@Vebrithien my dd got that unicorn a few years ago, beware of all the confetti that falls out of it!!!

Hunnybadger1 · 25/11/2022 07:47

Has anyone come across a better deal than 10% off the Yoto?

Epictantrum · 25/11/2022 07:49

I've waited for Black Friday, but sadly I don't think DSs lego typewriter is going to be discounted anywhere as it is quite rare and I daren't wait any longer. Argos it is, so can get my double nectar points and use my NHS cash back card, but does anyone have an Argos discount code still valid? It is stupidly expensive so I'm trying to reduce it as much as possible! Thanks

Beautifulsunflowers · 25/11/2022 07:50

Thank you to whoever posted about M&S snow globe gin fir £8 on Ocado - I’ve got 3 bottles on order - one for me, one fir my sister in law and one for my secret Santa!

Glowlamp · 25/11/2022 07:51

Try kitbag.com they have a massive range

Glowlamp · 25/11/2022 07:52

@Carrie76 kitbag.com

giraffescwrf · 25/11/2022 07:52

RE Trainline travelcards, do you think this deal is instead of 1/3 off cards we had last year?

TheGriffle · 25/11/2022 07:53

someone was after Squishville sets on the last thread, sorry, can’t remember who, there’s a few down to around £13.99 on Amazon Black Friday from £19.99.

😂Oh great! Something to look forward to!

Sadly, a friend of DD has it already, and Santa needs to bring the same one for DD.
