@ScarierThanBoo thanks for the title. Hope your slappers keep you lovely and warm and cushion your feet through the winter Xmas Grin

Panicked when I read about the Crimpit data flaw as I've ordered too. Just checked and when I click the link to order, it's all just blank. No pre-filled details of anyone else that I can see. Very weird.

CornishGem1975 · 05/12/2022 21:15

Ah that's good to hear @ChristmasCwtch I had sent them a FB message too.

I have lost the Fitbit I bought for my son! I went through all the possible places today and nothing. I'm really worried I've chucked it out inside an Amazon box 😤

TinyChancer · 05/12/2022 21:24

crimpet website not working?

Any lakeland codes someone can PM me please?

Whyisitsodifficult · 05/12/2022 21:25

Was there some talk earlier about the mystery box football shirts? Now looking for my DS!

CornishGem1975 · 05/12/2022 21:27

They're currently working on it @TinyChancer They just messaged me on FB to say their tech team are working on the issue.

Oh no!

I’ve had that panic a few times, but usually found it at the last minute.

Check in your knicker drawer!

They have different “products” that they print onto. You must have chosen two different type of T-shirt.

After you chose the product there are details about the T-shirt. See screenshots - premium T-shirt is 180gsm and the regular T-shirt is 145gsm.

They are basically an online version of the T-shirt printing shops you used to get on the high street 20 years ago. Choose your design, choose what you have it printed on to.

I have several friends who sell on there, and while they don’t make much per item they make up for it with volume.

I must have without realising! Shame, I'll know next time. The thin ones are really not great, okay for a novelty factor, but were still £13 each. The other, much nicer one was the same price!

Thanks for making me aware of that.

My 12 year old son wants clothes and is suddenly very opinionated about what is fashionable. He is in to the North face, Tommy hilfiger, and nike.

Any ideas where to get these brands cheaper/on offer? North face is especially pricey.

Seriously missing the days when he was content with clothes from anywhere as long as it had spiderman on it 😩

It seems all the deals were around on Black Friday. I've seen loads of things way back up in price.

e.g Vans online had loads of reductions, plus there was a 20% code around. I decided not to order and now regretting it, as have gone on and everything back to full price!

Will give you 35% off full-price at Adidas or 10% on outlet/ sale.

If you go through Topcashback you'll get a little back for Nike/ JD Sports etc (they stock The North Face).

Try MandMSports as they often have big names at good prices I you're flexible on exactly what you need.

Good luck (mum of 3 boys here, so I feel your pain).

They have a great returns policy (I swear I don’t work for them!). Contact them and say you want to return the items because you are not happy with the quality. They will ask for a wee bit more info, and then will issue with a voucher for the full value plus postage. You can then use to choose a different type (e.g. the premium t-shirt).

PassThePringles · 05/12/2022 21:44

On Groupon, pay £50 and they'll give you a £75 voucher or pay £35 and they'll give you a £50 voucher. Gift cards expire in Dec, 2025 so plenty of time to use them.

Not sure if it's been posted before but Vodafone has an offer for 60% off gin craft club, brings first box down to £16.80, voucher code looks to be generic veryme60

Went real life shopping and came away so disappointed! Had checked there was stock of a tree decoration in my local John Lewis before getting there about 10 minutes after it opened, to be told the items could be anywhere, and might still be in the stock room, so I had no chance of getting one. Searched everywhere!
Then went into Accessorize to get something I’d seen on sale on their website, to be told the sale is online only. So even though I’m holding the item, they won’t match the online sale. I have to either pay full price, or order online and get free click and collect (but wait 3-5 working days). Then my freeebie M&S stocking lights were out of stock! So frustrating!

SomethingOfTheNight · 05/12/2022 21:52

Does anyone have a free delivery code for Hobbycraft please?

nicky2512 · 05/12/2022 21:53

Have twitched badly and bought dd a handbag. I’m ill with covid and it made me feel better for a minute. Now need to buy DS something else to even up a bit as his pile looks v small. He really won’t care but I do. Then have to stop!!! Not spending any more.
Does anywhere still sell the big tall tube of Pringles I got years ago. Or did I dream that?

nicky2512 · 05/12/2022 21:54

That’s rubbish @SingaporeSlinky but, to be honest, that’s how most of my real life shopping trips go!

Thank you. I'm kicking myself for not getting it all sorted over black Friday.

CornishGem1975 · 05/12/2022 21:55

@SingaporeSlinky Real life shopping has been rubbish this year, so uninspiring.

I hope you feel better soon. Poundland had big crackers or a house with 4 different mini tubes of pringles in, I think they were £3.50 😊

Sallylovesdaisy · 05/12/2022 22:06

@nicky2512 I saw the giant tubes of Pringles in The Factory Shop.

Sallylovesdaisy · 05/12/2022 22:07

Sorry that should be The Original Factory Shop

nicky2512 · 05/12/2022 22:25

@BadgerLovesMash and @Sallylovesdaisy Thank you both! Ds has lost his taste and smell and has a “weird feeling in his mouth” and has developed a thing for Pringles (the Christmas stash). Onto it now!

SingaporeSlinky · 05/12/2022 22:36

Ooh giant tube of Pringles would be perfect for Dd too. Do they have all the flavours, or just ready salted, anyone know?

Sallylovesdaisy · 05/12/2022 22:39

@SingaporeSlinky I think they had various flavours, which is why I didn't buy them. Grandson only likes the sour cream.

Sallylovesdaisy · 05/12/2022 22:40

@nicky2512 hope you manage to get some. Wishing you both better soon
