@IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile and @Puffalicious I ordered my sons back in October. It arrived last week with no tracking update and just posted through the letter box so be prepared for it just to turn up!

Brilliant! I wait with bated breath!

Any suggestions for v cheap (less than £5ish) stocking filters for 14yo boy that I can get online? Not sweets/chocs or smellies.
Realise this is a tall ask but I've managed to somehow forgotten to get any!

For my 14 year old, other than sweets and smellies, I've got one of those moon balls mentioned on a previous thread, hair product, resistance band, workout log book for gym (he goes to a teen gym), some oddball boxers (some for £6 in the sale section, cheaper for kids ones but mine wears men's sizes).

I’ve had nothing delivered today and waiting on Footballs4u, Tillyanna, secret sales, brand alley, matalan and Amazon. Something was due last night but snow stopped that. Will it all arrive in one go? I hope so!

FlamingJingleBells · 12/12/2022 21:35

I'm happy to report that my crimps order arrived this morning. I only ordered it late last week after seeing it discussed on here! 🐑🐑

Not necessarily a bargain but can anyone recommend a company selling American sweets in uk? I want to get some 'odd' sweets for my dad as he likes to try odd things! 😂

@Cuwins my local Tesco has an American food section where you can buy US food, cereals & sweets.

@sorryiasked for my 14yr old I have got cosy socks, Star Wars blind bag, Xmas scratch card, The Batman keyring (from SHEIN) £5 Starbucks gift card, chocolates. Hot wheels car as he likes to collect them and grip covers for his Nintendo switch from shein.

1122christy · 12/12/2022 21:50

@sorryiasked meant to add pics sorry of stuff from shein

@FlamingJingleBells yes so does mine but they don't have anything really 'odd'! 😂

lightisnotwhite · 12/12/2022 22:13

@sorryiasked sneaky wipes
If he likes trainers he’ll love these overpriced wipes. The only gift my students showed a real interest in.

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 12/12/2022 22:28

Is it just me thinking this but it doesn't feel Christmassy yet as we've not had the obligatory Lisa Angel sale🤔

MerylSqueak · 12/12/2022 22:35

@GirlWithTheYellowHat Personally, I am missing someone having come on just to tell us all we're all horribly materialistic. It's been so long!

Helssjbells · 12/12/2022 22:36

I’m hoping someone can help me please… I’m thinking of getting a portal (Facebook portal) for my parents. My Dad is undergoing cancer treatment and so I think it could help us keep in touch more. Are they quite easy to use? If I got one for my parents, would I have to have one too? Or can I just my phone? Is there a particular model anyone can recommend? Thank you

Thank you for all the teen stocking filler suggestions.

I don't know about fb portals but we have a komp for my parents. Pros: they are completely technophobic so perfect for them as they don't actually have to do anything. When not in use for calls it's a digital photo frame where we can add / change pics for them. Cons: when someone calls they just get a 10 sec warning so some people may find that intrusive. We have just limited who has access.
Hope that helps

Does anyone please have a code for Moshulu? It's one of those places that constantly sends codes........... until I actually need one!!

I think I’ve pm’d you a referral code for 15% off.

BloodyMabel · 13/12/2022 00:51

Has anyone had any luck getting The Range to collect a return? I cancelled my order as it took so long but they sent it anyway and now customer service are being awful not wanting to collect it 😩

Still waiting for SG to refund too, really fed up with lack of any kind of customer service this year!

BloodyMabel · 13/12/2022 00:53

Thought I’d cheer myself up and check the Sparks golden door, clicked it and…it disappeared 🤣

Anyone manage to open it?

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 13/12/2022 01:12

@BloodyMabel I don't even have a golden door. If I try to access the advent calendar it takes me to my current offers instead.

Travelplans · 13/12/2022 01:37

I’m really behind on this thread so sorry if I’m duplicating but ooodies are back on 5poundstuff

PlainJaneSuperBrain99 · 13/12/2022 02:42

My sparks advent has disappeared altogether. I'm now in mourning for my missed opportunity of 20% off Shortbread if i buy a coffee.

Whatdayisitnow · 13/12/2022 03:05

My Sparks app says “You have added all your Sparks offers.”
I’m another who wasn’t offered anything new today.

shinny · 13/12/2022 05:04

All my (rubbish) offers are still on the added to card but and it says 12 days of sparks but no sign of the golden offer anywhere 😫
