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.

Urban Decay have some of their eyeshadow palettes for half price.
Might be good for teenagers/ aunties/ friends etc. Hope it helps somebody. X

Thanks. Urban Decay is cruelty free, which is essential for me.

Does anyone have a john lewis code please? I always buy my electrical goods from there and purchase the extra accidental damage cover, but I'm just wanting to know if there are any codes please? My account is showing 5% off.

PINKCAT 2 Pack LCD Writing Tablet 8.5inch - Colorful Screen Doodle Scribbler Pad Drawing Board Learning Educational Toys - Gift for Kids 3-6 7 8 9 Years Old Girl Boy (Blue+Pink) https://amzn.eu/d/cMh3Mdo

This works out at only £3.50 per tablet if you use the £2 off voucher, gets good reviews too.

I ordered 2 sets (of 2) and was able to use the voucher twice.

Thank you for Pokemon calendar link from before.

Thanks for the rex london tip...just got c.20 sticking fillers for £30...the joy of young kids! Cheap and easily pleased! Gutted I missed the pokemon calendar bargain, back up to £40something when I looked 😔

Forgot to come back about the hot diamonds - bought a ring and a pair of earrings and really pleased with both. Was sent a £15 voucher on my bday too (no min spend) and so went back on and ordered another two stacking rings that should be £40 each but with sale price, discounts and £15 bday voucher I got two delivered for £9!!! A bargain for my teen daughter who likes fingers full of rings 😁

snowmanshoes · 14/06/2023 07:25

And agree packaging is lovely too!

QuiltedBear · 14/06/2023 10:50

Playmobil stunt show quad bike with fire ramp 49% off - only £11.25. It says it’s a starter pack but I think makes a good stand alone present too.

Going fast though!

The pokemon calendar is back down to £21 right now. It's been £17 and £15 in the past week so it might be worth sticking a Camel Camel Camel alert on it.

Popped into tesco this morning and they have the large bars of Toblerone half price at £2.50 best before June 24.

Decafflatteplease · 15/06/2023 14:27

Saw Playmobil Volkswagen today on Amazon 60% off I think it was, around £18

RainbowZebraWarrior · 16/06/2023 15:06

These Christmas candle tins look ok for the money. They are £6.99 for 6 but there is a 30% voucher to apply at checkout making them £4.89 so about 80p each. Might be good for kids to give to school friends etc. I've taken a punt anyway.

I got one of these Lego sharks last year but I think the current offer of £11.99 -£4.49 voucher applied at checkout beats the price I paid. Well worth the money LEGO 31088 Creator 3in1 Deep Sea Creatures: Shark, Crab, Squid or Angler Fish Sea Animal Toys, Figures Set, Gifts for 7 Plus Year Old Girls and Boys https://amzn.eu/d/aLj3kwT

Crimsonbow · 17/06/2023 10:21

DC loves lego, that shark is a good deal! They're sometimes in the 2 for £20 deal at Argos/Sainsburys but haven't seen the shark one that cheap before. Thanks D20

Thanks I've ordered a set, they look cute and great price. I'll put them in a bag with a small bottle of prosecco. Asda/Tesco do the bottles at 4 for the price of 3.

I saw the Wax Lyrical Ski Lodge, Baby its Cold Outside big candles down to £9.99 from £20 on amazon as well. I got one a few years back and they are lovely.

Room4onemore · 17/06/2023 15:29

There is a Lego 3 on 1 unicorn on amazon as well at £8.99

Argos have the Lego shark in their 2 for £15 currently

LostMyRubySlippers · 17/06/2023 19:35

Hobby craft have £5 off with the code SUMMER5, no minimum spend. But to get free click & collect you need to spend £10 after the discount- ie £15 before the code is applied.

as well as all the craft stuff they do have some science sets etc on offer- eg Galt science lab/ space lab are £12 each instead of £16. Compared favourably to Amazon once the £5 off is applied too

Hi everyone, checking in, I'm late this year!! I have a question. There's a website I always get personalised T-shirts from thanks to deals on these threads (there's always some deal where they're about £5, although they take a while to arrive). I can't for the life of me remember what the website:company is called - can anyone help??!
