Has anyone come across any discounts on Nike Airforce trainers? Looking for the all black ones (size 6)
I’ve tried Nike & ASOS but both say excluded from discounts

Thank you for that link to velvetiser advent calendar. I am a VIP member but don’t get any emails which I generally like, but I guess at times like this it would have been good to get it!

I have ordered one for DH who loves his velvetiser - used the XMAS-SFHL code to get £10 off. (Added a wee bag of my favourite gemstones to get the order to over £50) Sadly no free delivery code at present so I had to pay the £4.95 for delivery, but if you lived close enough to a store to do click and collect, you could get the calendar for £35.

@XmasShoppingsister Thanks for the Morrisons deal. I just bought our turkey for the freezer.

@Thelifeofawife are these any good footlocker size 6 (39) £69.99

@Walkingbythesea I can't seem to see any deals on that site can you point them out to me please 😀

Really good techy deal for those who use Amazon Alexa's. The Echo Flex currently has an 80% discount!

Flex – Voice control smart home devices with Alexa https://amzn.eu/d/48076tN Amazon Echo Flex only £4.99!

It's only 2 per customer unfortunately, so one of my kids will be unhappy 😂

Did that link for the Echo Flex work?

Flex – Voice control smart home devices with Alexa amzn.eu/d/48076tN Echo Flex £4.99

Argos £6 off £60 code if anyone still needs one AP6NCHDK9W5

@XmasShoppingsister the link doesn’t work but I found it on Amazon. Can I ask what it does. Ds3 is 17 and has an Alexa (dot I think). Would this still be useful for him.

I normally hate the thought of people picking my food (although I do order from Iceland) but gonna give the morrisons offer a go!

Morrisons offer worked for me for delivery 👍

I've done a C&C order for Morrison's for Friday (pay day!). Thank you for the code!

I'm also going to spend my £10 voucher in M&S, so it's freebie day.

Bit random, but the Poundland deals of the week have decent brands in - eg Body Shop body butters for £2, stuff from illamasqua, burts bees, Essie, l’occitane, large Yankee jars for £15…

Delivery is £5.95 and minimum spend is £20. Wonder if they have them in store, as they can absolutely do one for £6 delivery (think it’s cheaper after a certain point, but I didn’t plan to spend that much)

I’ve only just managed to get out to Aldi this morning, we’ve all been ill on antibiotics one after another for the last month! For wooden food hunters they had:
the meat butcher set,
the fishmonger set,
the bakery set (rolls);
and a few fruit and veg crates.
I was looking for the role play delivery pizza bag but they didn’t have that 🥲
If anyone wants the wooden toys lmk

Thank you for the Amazon flex and Morrisons discounts. Can't stop spending but I've almost finished my Christmas shopping now thanks to these threads!

this is niche but has anyone used a bead spinner? dd wants one but there are so many and i don't know if they're any good. I did start a separate thread but no luck!

@Threeboysadogandacat Argh sorry about the link. Not sure what I did wrong.
I'm not entirely sure what it does. 1 of my teen boys had asked for it. I think it's an extension of Alexa, we're going to use it with an Echo Dot. It has a night light on it and I think you can use it in rooms that Alexa can't reach?

@imnottoofussed thats great, thank you! I was looking at adults, didn’t consider kids going up to that size

@Famousthehero Thanks so much for sharing the poundland deals! I bought a bodyshop strawberry body butter for £19 last week (admittedly it was 200mls) Definitely going to stock up on them at £2!

@XmasShoppingsister thanks for the link. My daughter's asked for a New Look voucher for her birthday in November. Checked t&c and I can buy now to get the deal and send to myself then forward to her on her birthday.

@XmasShoppingsister thank you. I’ve just bought two! I’m sure my boys will be happy.

It's a maximum of 2 (per 'flavour') if you order online. I've just been playing around seeing if it was worth it. I love the satsuma, so I'm hoping they may have them in store, as 2 body butters equalling four quid doesn't warrant six quid delivery.

Thanks to the PP for the echo wotsit which I've just ordered. Next stop is booking a morrisons slot.

Sorry I'm wrong, I misread it... the Echo Flex hasn't got a nightlight... it says you can add one via the usb port.

So on that note you could also plug in your charging cable and charge your phone from it.
Like you say at £4.99 I'm sure our boys will be happy with them!

Boots has £10 Tuesday again, with several things suitable for presents. No mirrors, though.

Included are a skincare and makeup bundle which it says were £72.40, and a mixed makeup one which it says was £62.90, but that seems optimistically priced to me.

There’s a 15% discount off a £60+ spend from 11am. The discount reduces during the day.

Thank you @XmasShoppingsister for the Morrisons code. I can't sleep so have ordered a load of non Christmassy meat for the freezer to take advantage of the discount. Beware as website kept defaulting to click and collect in Aberdeen which is 300 miles away for me, and wouldn't have been bargainous but managed to spot and change this 😀
