Anyone going for the free Percy Pigs with Sparks, it works on the big (£4) packets as well as the normal size ones.

Or it did the last two times my card has included the offer.

I think they changed this recently 😞 worth looking but the top of mine now says ‘excludes’ in all caps! Was fun while it lasted…

@Slater22 The Cadbury chocolate drove me nuts last year!! and I didn't even need one Confused

WimbyAce · 30/09/2023 13:59

Just got some lovely Christmas leggings for the youngest in Morrisons but of course they don't make them in age 8 so still on the lookout please xx

Favouritefruits · 30/09/2023 14:11

@WimbyAce have you tried Lindex for Xmas leggings, I find the sizes very generous and such good quality!

NoWordForFluffy · 30/09/2023 14:12

Not amazingly Christmassy, but Dunelm has a sale on at the moment. I just got 4 x hand towels, 2 x bath towels and 2 x bath sheets for £19, which I think is a bargain!

happytobemrsg · 30/09/2023 14:13

Thinking of getting a Vtech Marble Rush. A couple of questions:

Is it better to buy for my 4 year old or my 7 year old? I guess they will both play with it but it helps me plan out my budget 😄

Which set should we get? There’s the one with the rocket 🚀 or the one with the spinner wheel (this one is bigger but also more expensive)

Famousthehero · 30/09/2023 14:20

To add to the previous monster truck deal, this Transporter is currently reduced to £25 and looks like a good ‘big’ present

Threeboysadogandacat · 30/09/2023 14:40

I’m looking for bargainous bath toys. I had planned to buy them with my boots points but have lost my advantage card and it’s asking for the last 3 numbers at the checkout, aaarrrgh! It’s for a 4 month old (at Christmas) boy but happy to get something his brother can play with until he’s a bit older.

I've just gone on to my honbycraft app to buy a gift for my dd added the £5 craft blucher then saw Inhad 2 £2.50 vouchers I've earned, it won't allow those to stack either so frustrating

If your hobbycraft is anything like my local one they’d let you put your stuff through separately to be able to use the vouchers. I had 2 x £5 and did two transactions to use them both.

Bath & Body Works at Next**

Look under Clearance > Beauty and filter to B&BW

Full sized products (selected scents).

Body spray was £16 now £5
Shower gel was £16 now £8

Plus body lotions and body butter in matching scents.

B&BW is a lovely brand and popular with teenagers and adults in my experience. 🎅🎁

@CamdenLurker I've ordered from bridal beauty before and been happy, but thought my last mystery box was rubbish too! Only had things I'd never use and that aren't good enough to regift. It's put me off ordering from them again. I wonder if we got the same one.

psuedocream3 · 30/09/2023 15:25

@MarshmallowsOnToast Do you know what the fragrances are like? My teen would like these I'm sure but not sure which to choose?

Does anyone know any good offers on play kitchens (not pink) and playfood please?

WhyDoesItAlways · 30/09/2023 15:26

Thank you for the John Lewis tips today. I got DP a lego set with 20% off and used the MEMBER10 code for a further £10 off so bargains all round.

Darkbutstarrynight · 30/09/2023 15:28

@Threeboysadogandacat If you can get through to Boots by phone, they are really helpful. I did the same thing and they tracked down my card and the numbers through my email etc, I then loaded it onto the app and never actually found the card again!

WhyDoesItAlways · 30/09/2023 15:28

Valentte candles and wax melts are BOGOFF for the next 48 hours. I'm gutted I missed the diffuser offer the other day so holding out in case they so another offer on diffusers.

WhyDoesItAlways · 30/09/2023 15:30

Also, superdrug have 20% off lots of fragrances if you are in or sign up to their club. Plus 8% new customer cashback on top cashback.

I haven't tried any of the ones on offer I'm afraid but this sounds ideal for a teen..

Pink pineapple sunrise

What it smells like: savoring juicy tropical fruits at dawn.
Fragrance notes: sweet pink pineapple, palm sugar and sun-drenched nectar.

Ooh they've just added a Champagne Toast body lotion to clearance. I've used that before, It's lovely!

MamaK19 · 30/09/2023 15:36

Anyone know if Baker Ross ever have discount codes eyeing up some soft animals for DD to give to her friends but wondering if I can get them at a better price Xx

Oh, sorry about that. I still have more than half of my last packet, so it must have changed in the last month or so.

psuedocream3 · 30/09/2023 16:08

Thank you, will order for very fussy teen! You've reminded me I have a Victoria Secret mist my husband gave me that I wasn't keen on that I can also gift. I hear they are popular with teens too.

Just had a look but again don't seem to do older kids. Have found some gorgeous ones in Next though in all sizes 😍

cymrumam · 30/09/2023 16:45
