I really shouldn't have come on to check out this thread tonight !!

I now have a silk bonnet in a basket and some stuff from NOTINO 🤣🤣!

@CanIPutTheTreeUpYet re the bonnets.

Is an adjustable elastic around it ?

I really need one that I won't be able to feel on my temples .

@Blessedbethefruitz does it need to be new? There's some on fb marketplace. Unfortunately not near me as they are chesterfield and crowthorne, but you could see if they'd be willing to post?

@Blessedbethefruitz having just seen your name ...I have just remembered you gave me a code for lookfantastic I think .
And I didn't thank you ...cos I forgot ..and lost 3 pages of the thread !
Sorry !😐

I purchased two from here about 3 years ago (they were £24.99 then but now £31.99 ) & bought my parents some as gifts last year, and they are still going strong, they are washable too! here

@Jedstre glad to have helped!
@bizzey yes, it's elastic with a toggle so you can choose how firm you want it. I've just put mine on for research purposes... I felt a little pressure behind my ears for a few seconds, can gently feel where the toggle is. Can't feel anything at all on my temples. I have the toggle sitting centre on my forehead/hairline area as I'm a side sleeper. By the time I've wrote this, I can barely notice it on anymore ☺️

ConsuelaHammock I can't get the code to be accepted at Happy Puzzle?

Oh I’m sorry. Try COM20. Don’t forget to get TopCashback and Quidco for cash back too

Is it these ones?

Oh thank you but sadly they aren't the ones. So very kind of you to have been thinking of the dummies

@PathOfLeastResitance Try sleepseeker.co.uk - they currently have 20% off all their heated blankets, throws and under blankets - including 20% off slumberdown electric throws and blankets.

I’ve also seen adverts for heated cushions - company name Stoov I think. I know nothing about them other than I’d been looking at heated blankets so Facebook decided to show me their adverts and I thought they might be an interesting addition to the heated throws etc. maybe someone on here has used and could recommend or day to avoid? They weren’t cheap though!

the other thing that’s a bit off the wall - I follow a brand of bags that’s made locally to me called Mia Tui. One of their products is a neat cross body bag - I didn’t look too closely as I don’t like wearing cross body bags. However someone had discovered that it was a good size to put a hot water bottle in and keep it close on you, which they found good for keeping warm when they were out and about. So maybe the components for a reusable heath robinson contraption/solution might work!

@ConsuelaHammock happypuzzlecompany code COM20 only seems to add a specific game to the basket and discount that, rather than the item I want to buy

@Yajebbend try scoville (sp) they sell them in Asda and are usually a decent price.

White Fox Black Friday early access code: EARLY40

Not sure if it works on full price items, but if you're interested might be worth trying!

Anyone know how accurate the stock checker is for Boots?

Working on already reduced items, so not the hoodie DD wants 🙄

Elemis deal now live on QVC to buy.

Here you go! But not cheap sorry!

Thank you 🙏

@bizzey Thanks I'd not thought of that!! Not me for the look fantastic code haha!

Not a bargain but Martin Lewis has said today is the last day to get a free £125 bonus from HSBC for one of their global accounts. I'm sure the payment is within a month of opening the account but might be helpful for Christmas spending?

Turtle Doves codes:
