Thanks @Robstersgirl for the title. Wonder if it was the thread that did it!

@EvilHerbivore i might be too late but I got Turtle Dove wrist warmers from eBay. Seconds in cashmere for £8 delivered

Lookfantastic have some lovely things half price with an extra 10% off and topcashback are doing 20% cashback (which works with the discount code). There’s lots of ESPA, ren, nice make up sets etc. I got a set of 3 aromatherapy associate bath oils and redken shampoo/ conditioner for £25 (will be £20 if cashback goes through!)

This is on bargainmax for 12.74 with the code BF25 but only until midnight. Cheapest I have seen it is 23.99 so thought it was a good offer

@2023willbegreat the referral only works on a minimum of £55 spend it seems.

if anyone would like to use my referral code for modibodi I’ve popped it on the referral thread. The £15 can be used on the sale items so depending on the price of the undies you would like you should be able to get 5 pairs (ish!) for £40. Still a lot of money but an investment none the less.

Does anyone have a link for the hair milk? Had a look back but can't find the post.

The hair milk is just on Amazon but at a cheaper price (or was) than puffalicious was paying in her local salon! So she tipped off the thread and the 🐑 all piled in. Anything up to around £9 is good value I think.

@smootholive I've done this few times now. I managed to get a box of individually wrapped stroopwaffles last year if your looking for something a bit of a treat.
My mum was a teacher and really there's only so much wine/chocolate/bath stuff/best teacher mugs a person can handle or fit in their house.

Great present ideas thanks!

I think it may only be until midnight but you cab get 10 Christmas cards with the photo of your choice on photobox for the cost of delivery- £2.99 with code FREECARDS

@Magik01 , that’s odd because I had more than £55’s worth of items in my basket, at one stage, anyway. Never mind.

I ordered after 7pm but made a mistake with the order (one wrong size), and didn’t realise until only I checked the emailed receipt. I’ve already had a friendly reply to my message, changing my order to the right thing.

There are some reduced bargains on yumbles. I’ve just got a couple of kids baking kids for a couple of tweenagers who are getting to an awkward age to buy for - reduced by 35% and 44%, I can’t seem to do clicky links but have taken screen shots so hopefully anyone interested can find on the website.

It’s nice to finally find a bargain to share as I’ve enjoyed so many others from mumsnet terms this year- hot diamonds, oodies, and missed out on a couple of others- cadburys bar and hc wreath as too slow . Thank you everyone

Are you looking for cashmere for your mum's scarf? Gretna Green have some in their sale with 30% off but they are still £30. Most are tartans but there is a purple one that they call aubergine. Could be jewel-like I guess!

Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced digital photo frame please?
Also how do they usually work? Can you link to your phone or do you need to load photos specially on to them?

Thanks to whoever said about the extra 20% off for new customer at bargain max (can't find the post now). Was a toy I wasn't sure about but have ordered with the extra money off!

Thank you! I'd ignored my emails from look fantastic (as they email EVERY day!)
Managed to buy a few micellar water cheaper than other places, a bigger morphe pallette than I'd planned (for the same price) and eye rollers, ideally will keep one myself but am sure DD and her friend will want them! 50% off majority, then an additional 10% and possibly 20%cashback if it tracks

@buckeejit i’ve just ordered one but it’s from Meaco Ireland and only delivers to Ireland or Northern Ireland. Obviously may well be no use to you but just in case.

@smootholive individual presents are sometimes better if it is aimed for staff in your child's room. If gifts are not clearly labelled to who they are for othen they can be all put into a raffle system closer to Christmas for all nursery staff.
Majority of staff are happy with chocolates/biscuits and don't last long. Nice to have in staff room for break or maybe hidden in the room cupboard 😂

@buckeejit I bought mine here a month ok. Also did lots of research and it's brilliant, definitely recommend. www.appliancesdirect.co.uk/p/meacodry-abc12lb/meaco-meacodryabc12lb-dehumidifier

@Lochjeda what about a voucher for nearby restaurant? I like the cleaners idea too.

@ChristmasCwtch those bags look great, I'm mulling over for my nieces

@PurpleSock what about an echo show? They can display photos & are otherwise interactive. We used ours to call my folks in lockdown-good if you've anyone you like to call who has one too!

@nicky2512 thanks - I am NI but the .ie website won't let me play

I was taken in the end with the wind up toys that pp favoured. 4 of them were going to be £28.10 delivered. There was a box of 50 going for £25 delivered & a 20% off voucher so I've ordered them & am gladly compiling a mental list of who I can give the spares to for their dc stockings!

Yes!! That’s what I meant.
I bought the ones recommended on here earlier but I’m not sure what would be needed for DC to use them.
Thanks very much

Thanks - ordered 3 boxes, then promptly forgot to enter the code!

If you search Posca pens or look in the Christmas forums you’ll find a thread about them and was mentioned on here too. Big box of 54 is reduced and has a 20% BF discount on too. It’s still crazy money, about £120 but it was number one wish on Santa’s list for a child who will be totally made up - so I closed my eyes snd pressed buy now.

Then realised I don’t know what I’ll need to go with them.
