I thought they had said they will send in January?

@Serenitesanta try the DIBB for info but also magic breaks I've been a few times and always booked through them & always got some sort of deal. Good luck!

@Tirrrrred I wanted A3 size unframed so I could put it in a big antique style gold frame and it came A5 size in a black frame 🤦‍♀️ was going to hang it behind the TV but it's way too small for that 😂

@Serenitesanta for Disneyland Paris I’ve booked through Magic breaks every time I’ve been. They usually have quite good deals for January. I’d recommend Newport bay hotel or hotel Cheyenne was good, but breakfast at Newport is much better.We’ve been twice in January and we went in October this year. January is a great time to go. It’s much quieter, and we’ve had good weather(dry and reasonably mild) the 2 times we’ve been in January. I wouldn’t go in October again. It was so busy.

Ends tonight

We also went to Newport Bay. October was really busy but the Halloween atmosphere was great! Meeting Jack Skellington was a highlight as he only appears this time of year.
Newport Bay was great for early access to the park and the breakfast was really great. Rooms were big and very comfortable.

Does anyone have an Argos code or else know of any bargainous heated throws? Can't justify £60 currently

@stepfordwifey that’s true, the Halloween parades,shows, extra characters(my daughter loved seeing maleficent) and the Halloween decor in particular was so good. I think it felt even busier to us because we had been in January when it was quiet and hardly any queues for anything.

Heated cuddly toy reduced to £5 and every time you buy one, they donate one to charity

@Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton
I absolutely love your name! One of my most favourite shows ever.

😊❤️

Does anyone have or know of a Scamp and Dude discount code? It's the last thing on my to do list but the prices are eye watering 🙈

Apparently Lidl are getting silentnight ones in on Thursday and will be selling for £29.99. Might have to early to nab one!

Me too . Love the Christmas episode. .. Gold , Frankenstein and grrr 🎅🏻🎄

We just put a food order in at the co-op for our relatives who are unable to go out and get food due to the ice on the pavement. They got 40 fags! How! Such a nightmare trying to rectify it 😫

@Iluvchristmasbargains ideal!

Big scamp and Dude fan here 😅 you can get 10% off by signing up to the newsletter but no other discount codes, they did a black Friday one recently so prob no other promotions now for a while.

Thanks @neonleopard! I suspected that may be the case. Love the name btw ♥️

Can anyone else spare me a White Company discount code? Just realised I forgot BIL 😬 and what he'd apparently like, is a bit pricey seeing as I thought I was done.

Forgot to mention that my local JL store was giving out actual golden tickets on Sunday. Not sure when the promotion runs till.

I got 4 tickets and they all had £10 off a £50 spend in January, which is great!! They don’t stack, but will be useful for new coats etc for DC.

I'm signing off this thread because I'm done and don't want to be tempted especially with Mail as it is

Thanks so much @Reastie and everyone. Hope you all have a great Christmas 🎄

I feel i need to apologise for suggesting Honestly Eco 😩 I'd never used them before so wasn't a recommendation but their stuff sounded good. I'm still waiting for my order and they have ignored my requests for a refund. I did discover that they used to trade under another name but changed it 'due to abuse over issues with their previous delivery service' 🤔

Missing parcels:
Smashed grapes case
Huge END parcel containing all DS presents
Chocolates
Lauden Chocolate
Huge Emma Bridgewater order with all my staff Xmas gifts

FFS

I'm still waiting for Smashed Grapes to bother to respond to my refund request. Weird how some people get an almost-immediate response. Thankfully I used PayPal, so will raise a dispute a week after my request if they still haven't responded.

You did it in good faith @TheContinentalHotel no need to apologize imo
