Christmas bargain prequel 2023 thread 2 - the one without a side order of chips

[InDreamland]

Hope everyone is okay with me starting this new thread off. Thread 1 is at 992 so thought best get a new one up and running so we don't miss any bargains.

With thanks to @sideorderofchips for all your work keeping these prequel threads going. Hope everything is okay and you'll be joining us again soon to reclaim your fab threads.

The prequel threads are kept going through the year in the run up to @reastie taking over for the Christmas bargains threads late summer/autumn.

@Fuckingfuckssake I’ll pm you one, came yesterday

£17.51 for this Pokémon advent calendar at the moment, which seems okay value

Thank you so much @Famousthehero - my Pokémon obsessed DS watched an unboxing of that calendar the other day and said it looks amazing!

Hurray for @Martinisarebetterdirty I shall go to the ball!!

Just bought this in The Entertainer for my 7 year old, looks fun and a good price. Called Rukus FX, £15

Also 1,300 Orbeez for £3.33 instead of £10

This looks good @Irritatedmum I've always wanted to try these!

My local Claires has 5 for £10 on red stickered sale items £5 and below. Had some great bargains to add to the stash

If you buy a Costa gift card for £20, you get an extra £5 free. Cards only expire if not used with 12 months, so could be purchased now for Christmas. Just don’t forget where you’ve put it!

Thanks for this @chocolateisavegetable . I've just checked the app and it goes up the more you load on so £20 gets £5. £40 gets £10 and £60 gets £15.

As per my username I'm quite a fan of Costa 😂

Can you guess what I’m a fan of? 😂

The playmobil mentioned previously comes in a huge box!

And I sampled one of the mug cakes today - delicious!

It's amazing isn't it @Crimsonbow a definite bargain!

Orchard toys mini build a beetle game down from £7 to £5.20 on Amazon so a good price we've got loads of orchard toys games over the years love them!

Quick reminder for Tesco vouchers
13th June is the deadline before it goes from x3 to x2

Amazon

I make (posh) Christmas decorations using wool felt, thread and other bits from Cloud Craft.

They are closing and have announced a 30% off sale. Things are disappearing fast, though.

Would someone be kind enough to advise please where's the best place for refurbished iPhones please?

Cex and Backmarket have been mentioned in threads.

Fur Real Cinnamon the horse down to £30 on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/FurReal-friends-Electronic-Accessories-F4395/dp/B09H1XX1JT/ref=zg_bsms_kids_sccl_1/257-4693534-0380319?psc=1] Could be a main gift - have looked at prices elsewhere and whilst less than the RRP - this is a great price

I used CEX for my son's Xbox because they give a 24 month guarantee.

I have recently used BackMarket and am pleased with it all so far. I do have a referral code that would give you £10 off a first purchase (disclaimer: I would also get £20 credit, though I'm not planning another purchase right now so less bothered about that!). They also do a 5% student discount if you are eligible for that, or know someone who is.
I'll put my referral code on the referral thread and tag you there @SomethingOfTheNight

I just bought a refurbished iPhone from Music Magpie and it is immaculate snd far cheaper than an official Apple Store refurb .Do you have a Blue Light card? I got an extra 10% off with mine.
