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

Has anyone received the printed sacks from the vodafone code yet?

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 03/12/2022 16:44

Thanks @Puffalicious! I'd missed that one. Doesn't work on their gift sets but brings down individual bags. So I'll just have to do without the cardboard box 🤣

Why do I look?! I just had a quick look on Lego to see if there was a small set that would suit my (big!) son as it wouldn’t be Christmas without Lego. Saw the table football! He would love that but was over £200 so no way! Amazing looking though.
Like previous poster looking for something a bit cheaper!

If it’s any consolation my son considered buying this and did some research and the reviews were very poor.

Who was looking for cheap barbie clothes? Saw these sets in Poundland today for £3 each. For 'Bella' rather than Barbie, but look like they will fit!

My scrawlbox and dock and bay orders were despatched on the 26th of November and still no sign of either of them! Haven’t heard a dicky bird from smashed grapes 🙄

My baby daughter died when I was pregnant because I had stage 3c cervical cancer. We always associate her with Robins. Guess what my M&S app sent me today? 💖

@Gladysrocker Thank you - that definitely helps. I will put it out of my mind immediately and think of something else!

YesItIsNovemberAndMyChristmasTreeIsUp · 03/12/2022 17:14

Is there any deals on delivered flowers? Really need to order and hoping there's still slots left

@princesssugarplumfairy
The buy - a - gift things are popular.

You could gift them afternoon tea/ Michelin dining experience .
Lots of choices and areas near you .

There were some codes doing the rounds a while ago.

You could also add a babysitting voucher from you if applicable!

Thank you - the Michelin start thing is definitely up one of their streets. I'm off to have a look!

@princesssugarplumfairy how about a hamper from Bettys this one is within budget but there are several others for less so p&p is taken into account.

Ooo I like Betty's too. A little bit of luxury!

No bargains to report I'm afraid but I've just finished decorating the Christmas tree and I'm feeling extra festive this evening.

Most of the shopping is done, just a couple more tricky people to buy for and I'm waiting for a few orders to arrive.

Plus I have to start writing the dreaded Christmas cards soon as most of them need posting and there's a few Royal Mail strikes throughout December. Anyone written theirs yet?

noodledoodler · 03/12/2022 17:47

@Robstersgirl I hope I get one. I will out it on my tree in memory of your baby daughter ♥️

Had anyone had their smashed grapes tasting pack yet? I've not even had a dispatch email – ordered early November

Had a dispatch email and a tracking number that doesn’t track on Royal Mail. However also waiting for loads of other things that were allegedly dispatched 23 nov onwards by 48hr Royal Mail. We are semi rural and have patchy post usually so I’m cautiously optimistic but it’s a bit rubbish if cheese is sat in the post for a week.

MoiraDavidAlexisJohnny · 03/12/2022 18:09

There's some good deals on at superdrug, especially perfumes. There are some decent stocking fillers too, nice bits of make up and stuff. 15% cash back from top cash back. Though I've just managed to spend £90 eek!

inapickleproblem · 03/12/2022 18:14

Not sure if this has been mentioned but a good price for Olaplex on Amazon Hair Perfector No.3 Repairing Treatment, 100ml amzn.eu/d/76rizWh here

WhichWitchIsTheWitch · 03/12/2022 18:15

Did get a parcel addressed to mother in law (local, same surname, doesn’t live with us) which by the looks of the label has done a tour of the local villages. And a parcel for a similar street name half a mile away. Maybe they have my smashed grapes orders?!

Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton · 03/12/2022 18:17

I got an important letter from the bank today which was posted on 13th November!
Still awaiting another.
Waiting on 4 parcels too :(
RM striking again on Friday

Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton · 03/12/2022 18:19

Someone was looking for eye palettes?
Bought this today

Royal Mail is prioritising, tracked mail and packets above letters if that helps.
