CLAIRE'S CODE WORKS

They must have been doing an update because the code works but half of my basket is now sold out 😭 ah well... Money saved 😂

Ridiculously happy that Windy will be home for Christmas 🐸 and the mermaid 🧜‍♀️ 💕

Love all the kindness and help on this thread next title windy and the mermaid 😂😂❤️

Yay! So pleased to see Windy has been found!

Do Hobbycraft ever do discounts codes bigger than 15% off? Looking to purchase a sewing machine for DD.

Does anyone have a free delivery code for sports direct by any chance?

Hey! Just a warning to anyone using 5pounds stuff. I've UNKNOWINGLY signed up to a delivery subscription through their website 😭 which has just charged me THIRTY POUNDS. Haven't had any email etc first thing I knew was when it came out bank account. I phoned 5 pounds stuff who confirmed it. I haven't ever given my bank details to anything like that which means they've shared my details. So upset.

For anyone else who got the Bingo watch where it has a blank screen - my replacement turned up today. It turns out the cover clicks open further than you think, and you need the cover open all the way to activate the screen. Super simple, but no info to tell you that (and vtech technical support just told me to return it without bothering to ask!). Hope it prevents someone else having a Christmas day disappointment!

Didn’t work for me. Has that code expired?

Argh I hesitated over the Megalodon shark remote control monster truck on Prime day and now regretting it. If anyone sees it £40 (or less!) please let me know. I could see on the camels it's been lower than £40 but I'm now stressing it won't go on offer again before Xmas...😬 It's £45 at Argos/Smyth's currently but don't want to pay that when I could have had it for £40 yesterday!

What a lovely end result for Windy 🐸 🥰

@NaturalBlondeYeahRight Boots currently have around 15/20% off Dior Sauvage plus if you spend over £60 today you get £10 worth of points on your advantage card.

Please can you let me know if you see a deal on a nice sewing machine? My DD would love one, happy to be basic as it's her first one (she's 19 though so not a child's one)

Never have I been so invested in a windy frog and a mermaid 😂. So pleased they've both been sourced 😊

On buysubscriptions.com there's a good deal for Your Home magazine with a free Emma Bridgewater Christmas Mug. Have ordered for myself but might also gift it!

Windy frog and the mermaid sounds like a book by Julia Donaldson 😂

@Mumguilt23 what is the subscription for?

I've PMed you @Everybodysaycheese

@Turtleoo it'll probably drop again at black friday. It was cheap in aldi too last year

Ticket to Ride London is at its lowest ever price of £12.99 on Amazon, according to the Camels. We have the younger version and my kids really enjoy it, so I'm looking for deals on the other ones, especially the Nordic one for the run up to Christmas.

5poundstuff had a box you could tick for an extra £5 off your order and free postage. The small print said that it would sign you up to a subscription which I think was to claim free postage for all your online purchases except Amazon and possibly something else. I ticked and got the money off but cancelled as soon as my parcel arrived. It may have been this.

Thanks, I hope so! I saw Aldi has had it in the past. Will keep an eye out - is their toy sale imminent?

Just wanted to say the hunt for Windy the frog has touched me
It's the epitome of Christmas spirit

@IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile and @Everybodysaycheese whoever didn’t get @BlackFlyChardonnay’s Boden voucher let me know and I will send mine.

Scratch that… I see @Everybodysaycheese has it so will send to @BlackFlyChardonnay

@Threeboysadogandacat thank you, it must've been that. I have no email etc from them so no way of cancelling! I tried googling and nothing came up. Phoned the bank and they weren't even sure what it was. It was when I thought and backtracked and even phoned 5 pounds stuff that they told me!
