Loads of kids "oodies" on 5poundstuff again. I don't think they are genuine oodies this time though!

Me too for hair milk 😆 Will be nice in someone stocking!
I remember all those old bargains, it’s been a wonderful thread but I can’t believe it’s 9 years. I used to use the bargain one on moneysavingexpert before this one, it was really busy in its day too.

Well my SG order that had been despatched (after one cancelled), has been delivered - somewhere in Tyneside apparently! Nowhere near where I live.
I believe this happened to someone else too. Seems very odd indeed

Seems to have happened to a lot of us :(

I keep getting advertisements for SG on FB. They've done something to the comments so none can be viewed but I can see lots of angry face emojis. Can't believe they're still advertising

These truffle advent calendars are an extra 20% off with 20CHRISTMAS they are the best I've ever tasted and I buy a lot of expensive chocs 😂

I know smashed grapes are getting a lot of criticism but the wine is lovely and the pouches, being plastic, are very easy to sneak into gigs thus avoiding ridiculous bar costs.

Yalz · 09/12/2022 23:44

Yes, @FlamingJingleBells , my local Boots had plenty of the £41 Advent calendars today so I bought one. The assistant said they had sold out last week, but had received a lot more stock this week.

who remembers Robert and his unfeasibly well endowed horn?

Oh yes, we've still got our Robert 😁

flumposie · 10/12/2022 00:28

We've got a Robert. My daughter is nearly 13 now, still sleeps with it and has instructed me to put it in the loft and keep it forever when she is grown up.😂

The hairy milk is £9.99 how much is it usually? Should I keep it in my basket to see whether it drops?

IggyAce · 10/12/2022 06:37

@wonderingwhatsnext not a bargain but Redbreast is a lovely Irish whiskey and my dh favourite. You might want to add it to your Amazon watch list and buy it for a future gift. It occasionally drops to under £40.

Well M&S you are fast losing my business... other folk seem to be getting lively gin, prosecco, chocolate, pig related things etc etc but today's offering to me was 15% of festive toilet paper!!! Ffs!

I got the gin but my offer on Friday was the same as you got and I was… not impressed!

Theraffarian · 10/12/2022 06:50

Green and black choc selection has a £4 off at checkout on Amazon this morning making the big box £6 Here

Purpletoes · 10/12/2022 06:59

Thank you fir green and blacks heads up. Needed a few more for presents

Noname3 · 10/12/2022 07:10

@wonderingwhatsnext how about something to keep him warm when dog walking? thick walking socks, Woolly Hat, Hand warmers?

Starlin · 10/12/2022 07:11

@Theraffarian I only see it available under fresh for £12. Am I missing something?

I've been on the hunt for a present for "the guy who has everything". Early 50s, cycles, walks, likes reading but has everything he says he needs. Any advice?

Theraffarian · 10/12/2022 07:14

@Starlin the link I posted is still taking me straight to it , the box is £10 and then extra £4 deducted at checkout . Just tried a second Amazon account and it shows there too , hopefully everyone can find it .

oatmilkisntsobad · 10/12/2022 07:18

I've been asked for a wool bowl but there seems to be mixed reviews for every one I have looked at - too small seems to be the most common complaint. I'd be grateful for mn wisdom on this. Ideally I'd like to spend around £20 if that sounds realistic.

Karatechopp · 10/12/2022 07:21

Thank you for the green & blacks that's my granddad sorted!

EverydayIsPJday · 10/12/2022 07:35

Morning, bit of a cheeky request but any idea what to get a 21 year old girl? It's my niece's birthday straight immediately Christmas who I'd bought something for a while back from a bargain on here but I've just been reminded it's actually her 21sr so it's probably not special enough for that. My kids are five and under so I have no idea what to get ! Thanks

Restlessinthenorth · 10/12/2022 07:37

Thank you to whoever shared the retro shirts at JD on a previous thread. Lovely gift for my hard to buy for brother!

OhRex · 10/12/2022 07:58

Thanks @Theraffarian just got the G&B for the parents. I think I’ve been scammed 😫 I bought kitten plushie pillows from a website on Black Friday week and realised I hadn’t heard anything. Website doesn’t exist any more. I bought through Shopify and all the links there take me to a holding page that says ‘how to finish setting up your domain name’. I’m never seeing that money again am I? 😭

mumonthehill · 10/12/2022 08:06

Ah you got me with green and blacks!!! Ordered!
