Could anyone recommend a gift for nursery staff please. I’m really struggling to think of anything other than chocolate. I would prefer a group gift rather than one for key workers because they all work together and are appreciated.

When I worked at a nursery a parent gifted us a hamper they had made with some different hot chocolate sachets, some flavoured instant coffees and some teabags and a load of biscuits (your normal dunk in your brew kind) - made for some nice tea breaks and was a good change from a box of chocolates.

10 bracelets for £9.95 plus p&p £2.99. Got little presents for primary school kids

@smootholive we got quirky tree decorations for my DD's, one each. I figured they don't take up too much space, can be packed / given away if disliked and we're a bit personal. My DD enjoyed choosing them.

Just found a promo code for the woodland gift company , use Magic and you will be given a discount its different for everyone, I got £2.19 off.

Magik01 · 25/11/2022 21:52

@ScratchyScratch I don’t suppose you have a referral for modibodi? I think it would work out better value than the 15% off!

or if anyone else has a modibodi referral code I would love it please. You get £15 as do i.

TheDrsDocMartens · 25/11/2022 21:54

Thanks for the milkshake hair! My daughter will love it. She worships her hair 🙄

2023willbegreat · 25/11/2022 21:55

@Magik01 , I had a referral code from Modibodi but it rejected it as it said the existing discount was better. (15%).

I wondered if the £15 off didn’t apply to sale things? It doesn’t say that anywhere I could find, though.

Beer52 advent calendar box arrived this evening.
It is big ! And very heavy !
In a plain box but delivery sticker peeled off easily.
So it is still in hallway until DS takes his present up to my bedroom !

buckeejit · 25/11/2022 21:59

On the offchance anyone knows where I could find a Meaco ABC 12L dehumidifier.

Seems to be OOS everywhere & now I've decided on the model I want to order it now!

Gift ideas needed, my mum, dad and older sister are moving into a new house on the 28th December together so every thing is being packed up prior to xmas and I'm trying to think what I could get them as gifts thats not more stuff to move. They are also combining two houses so need to downsize things rathhr that get more. Really struggling if anyone has good ideas?

Pawport · 25/11/2022 22:03

Was there a code knocking about for Ugg’s at some point? I didn’t pay attention at the time, turns out I need a pair 😫 Any help much appreciated!

christmaspudding43 · 25/11/2022 22:03

@Puffalicious thank you!

Magik01 · 25/11/2022 22:03

@2023willbegreat how odd, I can’t seem to find any t&cs either. Do you have your referral and I will give it a go?

I’ve bought a few of these Tillyanna totes as presents. Great price on the medium size in the Black Friday sale. Just bought a cwtch tote for £20 (half price) 😊Tillyanna

Such useful bags - got 1 a year or so ago and it’s more useful than any handbag. Use it all the time.

badbaduncle · 25/11/2022 22:07

Holy fuck I have spent lot of money today. Bought pretty much all my presents. All in budget but still feeling 😯

Beachhutnut · 25/11/2022 22:10

@penguintattoo and @Nnat thanks for the suggestions - off to check them out/ have a look.

Foo2 · 25/11/2022 22:14

@Lochjeda what about a voucher for something like an afternoon tea or an experience like theatre tickets etc? Something they can enjoy once they're all settled in and isn't more "stuff"?

Chocolateteabag · 25/11/2022 22:17

@Lochjeda - professional cleaners for a day to do a clean before they move in or soon after (maybe help unpack?)
Voucher for dinner out so they don't have to cook on moving day? or a DIY one
Or an afternoon tea type thing?

Mrssalvatore123 · 25/11/2022 22:28

I’m looking for a scarf and maybe a hat for my mum. Warm and soft for walking the dog and in jewel colours. She doesn’t like blanket scarves though 🙈. Normal width! I saw one on Turtle doves but it’s out of stock.

also need to buy a Neom Candle. Christmas Wish. Any good deals?

badbaduncle · 25/11/2022 22:31

@Mrssalvatore123 there are some Neom candles on TK Maxx online :)
