Great! Thank you

I've bought my Mother in Law a bag for xmas but wondered if anyone had any nice pompom or key chain ideas she could attach to make it feel a bit special

Here's my O2 free Christmas Dec for a £1 if anyone wants it although be quick as it expires in 90 minutes

You can buy the propane burners and toasting forks cheaply from Amazon and diy along with biscuits, chocolate, marshmallows etc

Thank you @CatOfTheLand , yes we have done the little burners and marshmallows which I would totally recommend. The little set in.home bargains was a pretend campfire and marshmallows by Melissa and doug which looks so fun, but is very expensive online.

Oh wait! Do you mean a toy set one (because they had real kits in there) - you'll probably not want real fire and spikes then.

I got a fake plush campfire from Temu though

£1 Christmas dec code. You have less than 90 minutes.

I’m too slow for the o2 codes! If anyone could PM me one I’d appreciate it 🙂

@Ssfb3 thanks for the Mitre heads up! that really helped.

Does anyone have a student code for JD please? I would really appreciate it 🙏

Can anyone recommend a stylish shopping trolley for my 83 year old mother?
(Not a tartan one!) She refuses to let me set up food delivery for her as she likes to browse the aisles but finds carrying shopping home a bit much now.
TIA

Not a bargain (although you might get lucky over Black Friday).
But we got this one for my gran (she had similar concerns about it making her look like an old lady). It’s very sturdy and the pockets are useful for smaller items/non food items. It also looks about as stylish as a shopping trolley gets!

Or this looks great if you’re spending a bit more (the structure makes it look sleeker, and the wheels look better if the terrain isn’t flat/smooth, the insulated pockets would be handy for freezer stuff too): https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08HV2CPXH/ref=sspa_mw_detail_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9kZXRhaWwp13NParams

Thanks for the Mitre sale @Ssfb3

SALE10 takes an extra 10% off

Might something like this from Wayfair site work:

Hand Truck Trolley

It seems to get decent reviews. Plenty of alternatives available on Wayfair site too.

If anyone has O2 Xmas decoration code could they please pm me one? I have one for dd but ds needs one as well.

@bizzey our Pudsey Doctor Who bears came yesterday too! They're lovely aren't they! Really happy with them for the price.

We also googled the tenth doctor and were shocked at the current price. I wish we'd seen those when they were released, we all love Dr Who and the tenth is our absolute favourite.

If anyone has a spare o2 code for the christmas decoration I'd be so grateful if you could pm me 😊

Sent you one

Missed that extra code!
Too late for me now but my order only just sneaked past the free delivery cut off (£20) by 75p so probably best I didn’t use it.
I’ll edit my post so people don’t miss out

Just tried to edit my original post but can’t for some reason, but can edit this one??? Strange

@Ssfb3 don’t read this! 🫣

For anyone that hasn’t ordered from mitre yet, I spent under £20 and it gave me free delivery. It was a personalised ball though so may be specific to that.

Very impressed with the quality of the 02 Dec

Spent ages trying to work out what the 2nd December had to do with this!

So nice 😍 still hoping for a code!

I obviously haven’t got the hang of this bargain hunting 😆I must try harder!
