First Christmas present of the year purchased- 1 velvetiser coming my way.
Not going to lie- it's 100% for me but will be wrapped up and given to my husband (he'll like it too- but not as much as I will!)

I’ll PM you some codes @RoseLarkin

Really good prices on these PolyM Flexible Bricks, I got a box from somewhere last year and I've noticed in the last few weeks my 3-year-old has been playing with them daily.
They're lovely little sets, I've ordered her the playground one for Christmas.

I've gotten orders from the site twice before and all has gone well. 🙂

@Voiceofreason92 did you pay full price or are there any discounts available? Thanks

@ColeslawSandwich there's £30 off if you sign up to their VIP account- which is free

I know someone posted a couple of days back about the the beauty advent calendar pre sale at look fantastic- I couldn't bring myself to pay the £99 as I'm not sure my daughter would fully appreciate all the items so I found this one instead

Mirrors are in boots £10 Tuesday again today

Pretty niche for a gift but cheeky wipes is doing a £10 (plus postage) Tuesday deal for cotton pads/reusable sanitary protection.
You pick 3 cotton pads, 1 night pad and 1 liner and then add the 10tues code which brings the total to £14 including delivery. Good if you’ve always wanted to try them and never got round to it!

Thanks @Beckafett , looks great for my daughter ( and me!)

Ha ha love that.

We have had one for 3 or 4 years now. Gets used all the time in the winter. If it broke we would 100% get another one.

@LDB1985 I have one very excited little girl today as she has just opened her own little parcel with the paw patrol bubbles you kindly sent her. She loved the little note too!

I have been asked about a hundred times already if we can go in the garden to play with them now.

Thank you so much, it was very kind of you!

It was £5.

I think it’s got a tiny tray in the bottle that you display them on.

I haven’t seen them before and it was the only one on the shelf too. The one I bought said ‘Restore’ so I’m guessing they will do others too.

This is so lovely. What very kind people we have on here.

A shout out to @NoWordForFluffy too - thanks so much for the amazing tran sets, the kids are going to lose their minds to find it set up on Christmas morning!

Boots £10 Tuesday includes this Olay Classics Moisturiser Christmas giftset.

MNetters have probably taken dcadmamagain’s hint though as the mirrors are sold out.

It's a pleasure. You've done us a favour by allowing us to get rid of it from the top of the wardrobe!

Love watching this thread and all the great bargains. Just wondering if anyone received The naked marshmallow kit yet and what dates are on it. Was going to buy some for Christmas presents. Thanks

@NoWordForFluffy I'd underestimated the size... now it will live on top of my wardrobe instead 😅

So sorry. I'm late to this, but interested in getting a velvetiser for my granddaughter. Did someone mention that you can get them cheaper than the (gulp!) full price? Thank you!

12 pastel sharpie highlights for £5 (less if you subscribe and save) from amazon here

@Justhereforthechristmasthreads Thank you!

Sorry if this isn't on topic, does anyone here have the dualit milk frother? I'm comparing that to the velvetiser, not sure which one to go for

I’ve just been to hotel Chocolat to buy a velvetiser and was told if I register it for a warranty I get a free pack of dunking biscuits.
