@Seasonofthewitches and @Thelifeofawife
I emailed them and received a prompt and lovely reply from a member of staff who put the missing discount on to my account.
Hope this helps.

Hello everyone :)
My oldest (8) is after some of the Harry Potter dolls (like barbie sized), specifically hermione because she is the coolest.. if anyone happens to spot them in their travels/whilst browsing and thinks it's a fab price can you let me know please?
We are moving house in 2 weeks so trying to pinch all of the pennies! :)

Thankyou all!

@Bumblebeesince19 is it this one?

£45 at Argos for 50ml edt. That’s the cheapest I’ve found.

Does anyone know the best place or time to get millions perfume for men? It’s quite pricey on its own so definitely need a discount code or for it to go on sale

My above post was in response to this re one million edt

On the subject of perfume. I bought some in aldi yesterday. Lime, basil and Mandarin and it's an exact dupe of the Jo Malone one which is £118. Aldi one is £6.99.

@Arewesureitisntbedtime thanks for the Radio Times link. Just ordered it for my Mum 😊

FredaFox · 08/10/2023 17:59

@Letsgetouttahere2023

Have seen the limited edition diffusers for about £80 as I was contemplating one but can't recall where from

@Kissmas I signed up for the radio times today so I don't think you have missed it! 12 weeks for £1 and you can choose when it starts which is handy as we like to get it for January too.

Thank you, I've just signed up too.

Lakeland have free delivery on any item at the moment.

I bought some Xmas shaped pasta (and some Halloween shaped too). DS loves these and they're a quick easy kid's meal too when it's busy. Getting them on free delivery has meant I don't have to look in Aldi or TK Maxx for it and spend more on lots of random in-store purchase I was tempted by ha ha.

Bumblebeesince19 · 08/10/2023 19:05

Thanks! This is already down from when i was looking this morning!

Bumblebeesince19 · 08/10/2023 19:05

Oh this is a fab price!

I went for the boxing gloves for my teen son - I’m thinking I might actually use them too. I don’t think we can put a punch bag up in the house - anyone find any bargainous punch pads? Is there an alternative to pads that doesn’t require me to drill a hole in my ceiling?

I was just about to ask the same. I’m wondering if the free standing punch bags are any good? I’d not thought about punch pads but that might work.

lancslass17 · 08/10/2023 19:13

Bit odd but my local garage (londis) Texaco) sell American sweets and chocolates they have a whole stand

Icamehomelikeastone · 08/10/2023 19:22

Does the lakeland drypod go on sale? Black Friday? Not sure if I should buy now with 10% and free delivery or wait.

SomeFiggyPudding · 08/10/2023 19:28

I picked up two DesignaFriend outfits for £9.60 from my local Argos in the clearance today, worth checking online if you’re after any as they are gorgeous outfits and they come all boxed up and wrapped in tissue paper. One set is matching hat and bag so the child and doll have the same - so cute!

The dolls are also amazing quality - I picked one up earlier this year for £11 (thanks to the prequel thread!) and it is so lovely.

Blessedbethefruitz · 08/10/2023 19:29

Full price at 7.99 I'm afraid, but in case anyone is seeking inspiration for little ones. I got this for winter dance parties as we live in a flat, to keep them from going stir crazy! You can also stop the movement and just have calm still yellow stars too, my reason for picking this one :)

Thanks for the new thread. FYI Curry’s are still doing 25% off the pre-order for the new Mario Switch game Mario Wonder

ExPreschoolTrustee · 08/10/2023 19:38

The Naledi website is gorgeous - I have used a referral code (on the referral thread) and then the link to the sale section
£15 off a lovely pair of earrings which were down to £23, postage is £4.95
But there are a few things at £13 (so just pay £4.95) - earrings and necklaces

jamrolypolyandcustard · 08/10/2023 19:39

I'm hoping someone might have seen the Cadbury make your own house in B&M, if so, could you tell me how much it is?

I'll be making a trip tomorrow in the hopes I'll get one 😁

ArthurChristmas22 · 08/10/2023 19:41

Could anyone recommend a bargain wax melt holder? Have got the Valette wax melts and now realised my DSis probably doesn't have a holder!

BlairWaldorfOG · 08/10/2023 19:51

@Hickry some cute Halloween pasta similar to Lakeland in the random aisle section of our Aldi this week, 500g packs for £1.49 if you wanted any more.

Haveyoubrushedyourteeth · 08/10/2023 19:53

@jamrolypolyandcustard I can't advise on this years prices sorry, but I bought those houses x 4 a couple of years ago and was so disappointed. It's literally just bars of chocolate that you stick together with a couple of mini bags of buttons that you melt to use as glue. I don't know what I was expecting (maybe moulds or something?) but it wasn't that! If you're gifting it then obviously the proper set makes sense, but if not you'll save a fortune buying the individual bars. I wish someone had told me that before I bought them, or that I'd checked the contents before paying what I did!

Dee1224 · 08/10/2023 19:59

That’s scary info @SpoilerFree - my 23&me was bought for me as a present and I didn’t give my real name to the company. They do have my email, but I unsubscribed to everything and I use a different password on every site I use. My ancestry account has an email that I rarely use.

Thank you 😃 tbh it's for my DS 5 so if I'm gonna get as far as putting the house together I'll be lucky 😂
They have them on the Next website in tractor or Santa sleigh version which looked fab but at £15 I couldn't justify it!
