Does anyone know if any actual shops sell the metal rack things for Ninja Dual Air Fryers? Ideally the racks that come with the skewers. There’s an overwhelming amount on Amazon/Ebay but trying to avoid them if I can

Has anyone ever used battery hand warmers. Thinking for DS after horse riding and also for when waiting for the bus

My smashed grapes Malbec and scrawlbox arrived this morning!!!

My Smashed Grapes order arrived this morning. Sadly not at my house though. At someone else's in the north of England and I'm in Scotland. I hope they enjoy it.

Does anyone have experience with Yodel? Ive received 2 missed delivery notes, with nothing marked on the notes as to where my parcel is or what to next. When I enter the ID off the cards on their website it says it can’t track. Am I missing something?
I have ordered so much stuff with all these bargains I don’t even know which parcel/s they relate to

TheDrsDocMartens · 08/12/2022 20:56

Sarah Raven and Aldi are both yodel for me

WaitWhatOh · 08/12/2022 21:03

very much feel like I cant order anything that's come by post now, due to strikes, and delivery company backlogs. I love finding mad little gifts people had never seen or thought of and of course all the savings shared here. RL high street shopping is just not the same...

*that's DUE to come by post

CoffeeAndEnnui · 08/12/2022 21:11

If you have tweens or younger teens to buy for, the I Heart Revolution Tasty Christmas Hamper* *is very cute indeed and excellent value at the reduced price of £14. There are three palettes (two bigger) plus lipstick and gloss, bath products and more so there's enough in there to split up and still not look stingy!

The chocolate gift set was even bigger but when I went back to grab the link it had just sold out. Glad I grabbed a couple in time after dithering for half the evening.

Yes, I use the rechargeable hand warmers, love them. I suffer with really cold hands, so I have one in use and one on charge. Mine are ocoopa ones. They can be used as a portable phone charger as well, but I’ve only ever used as hand warmers. I treat them the same as a phone though, and never leave on charge at night or when I’m not about.

@Mince314s Just a word of caution that skin can be incredibly sensitive after chemo, so toiletries are not always the best gift. I loved anything comforting - maybe one of those blankets that zips into a cushion? Or a fancy water bottle? It's v important to stay hydrated and it was nice to have a feeling of a little luxury as you sip your water! Or a nice big bag for taking along to chemo sessions - I ended up taking all sorts with me to while away the time.
Hope your friend feels better very soon. x

Big shout out to Lennies Toys, an online toy store. My parcel seems to be caught up in the strikes and without even asking, they're sending out a replacement package and told me to donate to a children's charity, if both do turn up. I've offered to return as I know many small businesses are struggling but it was a very sincere offer from the owner. Well impressed!

Have you tried tracking with the app Shop? It takes all of the orders and pulls the tracking info in, with statues for all of the major carriers/couriers. Only way I keep on top of things.

@Mince314s Thanks for the tank museum tip, super hard to buy for tween who loves history sorted! I didn’t check out immediately and they sent me a 10% code which helped a little with the postage.

It wasn't my post and I've lost the original so just replying in the hope the poster sees it 🙂

@TheDrsDocMartens - my Sarah Raven order came in 3 separate boxes all on separate days - such a waste! I had ordered bulbs and two seed shakers - all came one after another.

Using up thread but also adding to my preferred buyers list. What a lovely gesture
