Does anyone have a spare shopdisney code? The one further up has been used.

Thanks for the green & blacks- had been waiting for those to reduce! Also thanks to a previous poster who worked out the light up lanterns in M&S stack. I had the sparks vouchers for one free tea lantern and £1 off a shortbread lantern. Bought 2 shortbread and 1 tea and got all 3 of them for £6 thanks to the 3 for 2 offer.

I need to send flowers this week for a birthday. Royal mail won't be the card there....

Where is best for both quality and my purse? Normally I use m and s but just wondering if that's best?!

Okay I know it was a few threads ago but my DD has announced she'd like Vivienne Westwood jewellery -!- I know someone linked us to a discount of it or a discounted place for it.... I'd appreciate any help LOL as its waaaaaaaaay overpriced for the quality of the metals!!

Flubadubba · 10/12/2022 08:32

Took me a while to work out that the voucher for G&B applied automatically for me at checkout! I got one when they were on offer befor, gave it to my secret santa and regretted it...

Sent you a PM @AnotherBreakfast hopefully it works

@dizzygirl1 I had flowers delivered for my DM bday yesterday. Looked everywhere, nowhere would guarantee delivery, I ended up ordering from Waitrose. Brilliant delivery info, delivered on day no issues and my DM declared them the best flowers she'd ever had! There was a free delivery code at the time FREEXMAS

Prizepudding · 10/12/2022 08:39

Disney code if anyone else needs one

Please help me! Any £5 gift ideas for my daughters teenage friends? They were going to do secret santa, but others said they'd already bought individual gifts, and they're a large group! 🙈

tabbycat985 · 10/12/2022 09:05

@Beautiful3 Age dependant I guess but how about a Revolution pallet? ASOS stock them & there's almost always some sort of discount code floating around

lemonsmum · 10/12/2022 09:11

@GrinAndVomit which version do you recommend the paperback or diary?

Does anyone know what father christmas delivers to non believers? We went on polar express last night and she couldn't even hear the bell 😢

chocolateisavegetable · 10/12/2022 09:18

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

What's your budget?

buckeejit · 10/12/2022 09:22

Just have to share that it looks like all my parcels are due to be delivered today, huzzah! RM must be having a big push. One is from nearly 2 weeks ago & one from 2 days ago!

Need to go to town though to get a gift card from Claire's.

EverydayIsPJday · 10/12/2022 09:23

@oatmilkisntsobad max budget is probably £20 tbh thank you 😊

How about mini wetbrushes?

For example here

I think the discount link that was shared was for a fake site. I've scoured all places and it's virtually impossible to get any deals. Tessuti have some (though slightly higher priced than other places) and there is a 20% off code. I got mine from flannels with a 10% NHS discount

paintyhands · 10/12/2022 09:31

Thanks to the person who posted a while back about the Neom spinning wheel offer. It wouldn’t work for me then but I got an email promoting it this morning and have now ordered a mini well-being pod with set of oils for £50, saving £80 - total bargain! I’m hoping I can also use the oils in my new Aromatherapy Associates atomiser so we shall see!

Slightly random question but am going in be in London for a day on 28th Dec. First time ever for my boys (aged 6, 8 and 10) anyone know of any good bargains on activities? We just need one thing to do so they feel like they have been in London. I mean probably just a bus ride will be thrilling for them

My freebie go-to in London is the walkie talkie building. It's free but you need to book in advance. The sky garden there is lovely - the views are really impressive.

Luckycatt · 10/12/2022 09:35

Wolfcub · 09/12/2022 12:55

@VeruccaSalty why not try for skygarden tickets. It's free and definitely will help them see London from on high

Great minds!

H4ppyC4mper · 10/12/2022 09:38

@chocolateisavegetable thank you for the Disney book link! My niece will love it!

dizzygirl1 · 10/12/2022 09:44

For wet brushes try tk max. They usually have the full size ones for £2.99.

Brilliant, DD15 has several
