Just very.co.uk discount Very50.

Thanks for all the Aldi recommendations, I will get myself over there tomorrow! We already have a few of the aldi wooden toys and they are generally very good quality.

@Cubic that is the squishy pig pillow I didn't know I needed!

Elephant-wise this one is lovely. Elephant pillow says for babies but my six year old had one and no one calling him a baby any more. Apart from me, he's my still my baby. Think ours came from amazon but you can get them pretty much anywhere, the price varies from £20-40 ish though.

Air fryer

can’t remember who it was looking but there a large 7.5 litre salter one just reduced on JD Williams to £75

Salter air fryer

Speaking of Airfryer, can anyone remember the little 1/2 person airfryer mentioned a while back? I can’t find it now I realise it’d be perfect for DM.

By that I mean 1-2 people not half a person 🙄

I think it was studio.

Does anybody know from previous years if Aldi tend to sell out quickly on wooden toys? Wondering if the eBay reselling vultures get there first a lot?! Wanting to get toy kitchen and dolls house

They used to sell online and go quickly but they don’t sell online anymore. Some Aldi’s by me have the stock out already. I suggest going tonight after 9pm (when they put the special buys out) or 8am tomorrow.

The Aldi airfryer is really good, we bought it for £35 and would be fine for one person

we’re upgrading this year as we’ve used it loads more than expected and are a family of 4 so wanting the 2 drawers

Just seen the degusta advent pop up on my facebook. £37.99 to pre order. Think this one has been popular on here before

Degusta Advent

Thanks @Summertime16 i can’t get there tonight so crossing fingers they have some tomorrow

@buttondown it's A8Y58FLCG3V2

13% off at Big Bobble Hats: https://bigbobblehats.co.uk/ today only. Free postage and packing. Recommended by someone on an earlier thread. I've ordered but not yet received.

There are generally loads of kitchens, etc in my Aldi and they're there for a good while after being put out.

that’s kind

@ThreeB @Needmoresleep89 that looks fab! I was just saying to DH you can tell we're in a post-Pirates of the Caribbean time as pirates don't seem to be cool any more. If he'd asked for this ten twenty years ago I'd have had my choice of toys. And realising POTC came out 20 years ago has just ruined my day! 😱

Drone Home game on Amazon half price at £9.99. Also half price at Smyths.

This game went down quite well with my DCs last year.

Last time I tried to link it came up with a strange affiliate link so I won’t attempt to this time!

We got cardboard sets from both waitrose and tk maxx. Be prepared to spend an evening constructing them all... I delegated to DH!! :D

Thank you so much! I have a big order to do this evening so that will help make it less painful!

Argos £7 of £75 spend - A99GFFZC8SP7 single use code

Can anyone give me advice about phone printers for android please? I'm sure I remember there being a poster on here who'd worked out some really good ways of getting paper etc

Unsure if it's a bargain, but I thought it would make such a cute gift...

Embroidered Initial Tassel Scarf in either beige or grey at Primark for £9

Ragin’! I missed the bargainous mini waffle makers from Urban Outfitters last year and it’s irritated me all year - with 3 teenage girls they would have come in so handy for friends’ birthday gifts!

I got on this year and was excited to see the same offer - reduced by 50% to £11 and then an additional 10% off bringing it down to £9.90.

Put three of them in my basket only to be met with a message saying that they are only deliverable to mainland UK and as I live in NI I am out of luck - again!

Everything£5 has free postage and 5% off with the Martin Lewis code MSEAUTUMN , I did have to use a private browser and order as a guest as I’m pretty sure this is the same code as last year and I ordered then too. You do really need to spend some time picking out the good stuff amongst the dross though .
