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

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.

Rainbows and Sprinkles (women and children's leggings and sports stuff, some hoddies) have 40% off active wear. There's a lot sold out but you can filter by size and availability. Discount comes off in basket. Have had stuff for DD from there which has worn well.

Any ideas on cheapest place to buy the harry potter book collection? Ideally needs to be under £30

Famousthehero · 13/07/2023 17:28

Have bought a couple of these Wax lyrical snowflake candles at £3.05 and will report back - they’re nothing like the big bargain ones of previous years, looks like they’re only small and not sure they’re boxed, but might be part gift for TAs/key workers maybe

Are you a Costco member? Costco online has them for £32.99 but I thought they were a little bit cheaper than that in store when I went last week.

Maybethismaybethat · 13/07/2023 17:47

Yes I have a costco membership and saw the online price but not sure I've seen them recently in our closest warehouse. Argos have them for £28 but they are out of stock. Scholastic have them for £30 but it's £5 delivery

Oh, they look really lovely. And at 42 hrs burn time and 9cm high, they aren't that far off size wise the larger ones we got. (Which are 11cm and 50 hrs gurn time)

Incidentally, one of the larger sizes is reduced to £8.70 at the minute, down from £20

BonesBrennanz · 13/07/2023 18:01

Books2door has them for £34 with free delivery if you spend £40.

Do you specifically want the boxed collection? Amazon has the paperbacks individually for £4 each so that would be £28 for the set

--Whispering this quietly into the void

This pattern is still on the Oodie website so I'm guessing it might be seconds/overstock.

Casdon toy post office is £8.99 on Amazon and at Argos, usually around £15. One of my favourite toys as a child!

Do you know if any of the other hoodies on that site are having hoodies? 🧐

WidowedMum · 14/07/2023 12:59

@BiffChipsandKippers think the Rick and Morty ones are oodie designs

BiffChipsandKippers · 14/07/2023 13:09

@WidowedMum thank you

Just been shopping IRL and tkmaxx/homesense had bakugan for £4.99 - picked up a couple for stocking fillers

Are you on Vinted? It is worth a look. I bought a sealed box set this time last year for less than £20.

Maybethismaybethat · 14/07/2023 15:09

I am on vinted but they seem to be at the same price or more than buying from a shop. You got a good deal last year

50 hrs gurn time 😂🤪🥴 can that be the next thread title?

Maybethismaybethat · 14/07/2023 17:25

Got the books, thank you all. Got them in costco £29.79. I got the last sealed pack, there was 3 others but all were open and missing books.
