Dunelm
Boots
Superdrug
Paperchase
Peacocks

Add yours when you see them!

Morning, my son is desperate for a few DC lego mini figures. I've been looking second hand but they're still quite pricey. Would anyone be so kind to point me in the direction of the site that had the random named figures called "boy with cape" for example? I have a vague recollection that they were a lot cheaper x

@Yeknom I can't remember the name of that site either but I do seem to recall someone saying they didn't seem to be trading anymore?

Gahhh that's annoying @Fuckingfuckssake but thank you for the heads up, it'll save my time hunting for it x

@Yeknom check out Etsy I bought lots for DH for Christmas, the seller I used doesn't do DC characters but if you search there are others that do

All Christmas wrapping paper in WHSmith is 49p a roll. Grabbed some plain ones for birthdays!

Aspinal have some lovely items in their sale, some probably good for difficult-to-buy for people who only like expensive things! Purses, credit card holders etc, good reductions and an extra 20% off until midnight. The extra comes off automatically at checkout.

Hi! @Yeknom was it minifigs.me ?

Hotel Chocolat has Gin body butter and also Tonic body butter for £4:48 instead of £14.95. Their Santa Lucia perfume is reduced to £8:40 from £28.

I can’t see a way round paying £4.95 for delivery, though, and their stock checker system doesn’t work for my local branch.

If you don’t already have their VIP card you can get 15% off your order by taking one out.

@Yalz I never knew hotel chocolat did perfume & body crème. That's messing with my head a bit!
River island have got a massive sale on. Apparently everything is £10 in the sale but it's hit and miss to be honest. I got DH a nice thick shirt for £10 & some slippers for £6. Just double check any items if you go.

@Yeknom it might have been we'rebrickinit but their website hasn't worked since about November (if not a bit earlier) sorry

Thanks to the poster who recommended the salt rock sale. My bits (for me!) arrived today and I'm very pleased with them, not somewhere I have shopped before but would definitely again

I placed a huge order with them straight after christmas - nice wrapping paper was super cheap. They "cocked up" my order and didn't send any of the rolls of paper. I've finally got a refund after much confusion, have looked again online and the prices have rocketed!

Will definitely never order from them online again.

Lots of lovely packets of wax melt bars for just a £1 at Devon Wick. Bought from them last year and they are really lovely scents. Even if some of them are xmas scents they will still be lovely over the winter period. devonwick.com/collections/sale

Haven't read the whole thread but just spotted a decent sale at character.com on some Harry Potter bits

Morning. I’ve already grabbed some bargains stocking items - thank you for the ideas on these threads too.

Does anyone know of an ASOS code currently in use please?

The LUCKY one advertised on their website is saying not valid for the item I want to order for my daughters birthday this month.

I can send you a link for 20% off full price items on your first order. ( I have a few accounts in different email adresses to take advantage of this 🙈

@Mentaldays thank you but I found 15% off £80 & used that before I saw your message - thanks again though

Glad you got a code, I find ASOS prices and codes change all the time, it’s super annoying when something costs less the day after you’ve bought it!

Thank you for reminding me of this site, just ordered some Monopoly pyjamas for my board game loving son.

Darby Pritchard's jewelry has all necklaces ( subject to availability)
for £4.49 .
WEEKENDDEAL3.

(First time posting a bargain !...I so hope I read the email correctly 😃!)

Till tomorrow night I think .

Link to the Darby Richard’s necklaces in the sale (I think)

Although it says all necklaces are £4.49, they are not.

Darby Pritchard’s , not Darby Richard’s (I’m blaming autocarrot)

Pritchards

Ohh sorry !
I wonder if it is just the ones that I open in my email then ?.

I might try a basket to check it out !
