Hi @mummyof2boys30 I can't help with the heated throw recommendations, but you might be OK with the tickets. I had chemo earlier this year and I found that I was fine for the First couple of days of the cycle, felt rubbish for the next 10 days and then was fine for the next 9 days. Of course, everyone is different and it depends how long the cycles are and which drugs they are being given. My lovely sister in law gave me a lovely present last year which I found so useful. She put together a hospital bag for me. She put in some knitted hats, woolly socks, a notepad and pen, a couple of books, some puzzle books, some cristallised ginger, some lemon and ginger tea bags, 4 or 5 lip balms, Aveeno moisturiser, an eye mask, a journal, a travel mug, some Costa vouchers (our hospital has a branch of Costa) and a game for my Nintendo DS.

Im unsure about tickets. Was for DH and FIL. I'm happy enough to go in FIL place. Was worried about it putting pressure on him thinking he needs to go. I was thinking exactly what your SIL got you, maybe blanket, hand cream, nice scarf/gloves and then some hard boiled sweets. He starts treatment on 28th Dec so right after Christmas. Hope you are doing well.

@ProseccoandPizza @Cluckycluck Same M&S offers as both of you. I also spend a lot at M&S. In there at least 5 times a week 🤦🏼‍♀️

My DC do love the stocking lights, so that was a cute gift. Skipped their miserly offer on the crisps today. Crossing fingers for Prosecco tomorrow. Will probably be 30p off a tin of tune 😂

Has anyone who order from honestly eco had deliveries? I ordered on 24th nov and nothing so far to suggest it’s even shipped

MerylSqueak · 02/12/2022 23:19

I felt quite happy with my Sparks free handcream, which they usually stock and I like for work, except when I went in today it's all been taken off the shop floor. Way to annoy someone M & S!

Thank you to previous posters who advised on penguins, I opted for a large Jelly cat and a fleecy throw.
I don't want to irritate with another request but are there any nice slappers that anyone can recommend? I bought a fabulous pair from Sheepers but I need a spare and they don't have my size right now. They have size 2 on sale though if that helps!

@Isyesterdaytomorrowtoday I ordered on the 24th aswell. I got a dispatch email on the 25th and it arrived on the 27th. It came by Evri who I know have some delays at the moment but it's strange that you haven't had any dispatch info yet.

I've just noticed free click and collect at TK Maxx until Monday. Some good reductions on gifts in the clearance section too.

@ScarierThanBoo ...sorry still !

I got 32% off Tonies in M&S calender.
Hallelujah!

My twitching has just shriveled up and died .
I am cured ....even I am not going for that deal...
😂😂!!

IggyAce · 03/12/2022 04:38

@Reastie nearly new thread time.
@ScarierThanBoo your typo made me giggle, it may make the next thread title.

IWouldBeSuperb · 03/12/2022 05:23

I got the 32% off a Tonies bundle too @bizzey 🙄

They're getting worse every day! Where's my free gin?!

The link doesn't seem to be specific to me though - so if anyone does need a Tonies saving try here?

It takes it down to £64.94 for a box and character, with free delivery, and the option to add headphones with the same discount.

Laney79 · 03/12/2022 05:35

@ScarierThanBoo that's got to be in the running for the next thread title...The one on a hunt for nice slappers!

Theimpossiblegirl · 02/12/2022 19:44

Dd wants a shark airwrap so I waited for black Friday but no deals. Then I thought Boots, so at least I'd get points but it's oos.
Any ideas on how to get one for a discount price?

@Theimpossiblegirl Argos? Sometimes have codes and if you have nectar points you can spend them (and earn them).

Or very if you don't have an account they were offering 20% off when you signed up for one. My partner bought a laptop and saved £100 that way.

4thtimesthecharm · 03/12/2022 06:08

@Reastie early morning call, nearly at the end, and another vote for happy slappers!

Reastie · 03/12/2022 06:10

Thanks, new thread incoming, just setting up my computer

jocktamsonsbairn · 03/12/2022 06:14

Another Tonies discount here too!! Less useful to me then even Gary was!! Where's the free gin? I'd be happy with Percy pigs to be honest!

Blessedbethefruitz · 03/12/2022 06:16

Has anyone seen any pandora discount codes please? For charm bracelets?
