Thread 11 - the one where pandemic is good & very replayable

[Reastie]

Thanks @GoatsareGOAT for the title. Luckily, she was referring to the board game peeps!

In message two are the links and info from last year - if anyone has anything they'd like me to amend or add, please do tag me and I'll update.

A reminder not to post affiliate links in the thread but that MN do change amazon links shared by posters into MN affiliate links.

Please do watch the thread rather than post to mark place to make it easier for everyone to keep up and find relevant info.

Who wanted old lady dressing gowns? @Hedjwitch maybe? Anyway damart is the place, 30% off everything with code 97273

@User202242 what about done nice hot chocolate, coffee or tea to go with the shortbread.

Apologies if this has already been posted - can't keep up! 😂

Sorry, forgot to say this is White Fox!

@dramalamma yes it has a red back ground and a picture of a gift box with a bow.

Struggling for ideas for token gift for co-workers. 5 people, 4 women one man. One vegan. Usually spend up to £10pp. Happy to get them all the same thing.

Something practical, or something fun, or something luxurious would all be good.

Ideas welcomed.

Sadly these are now up to 13 quid on amazon and up and down on Ebay. Cheapest was 3.99 when I first mentioned them

I'll link them but be aware anything over a fiver is overpriced!

@Gustavo1 LFCYBER for potential extra 6% off.

Hate to see anyone struggling so great shout. A lovely London at Christmas candle on its way here. The discount covered the postage.

Please could I be cheeky and ask if someone can tag me if they see the Christmas hex bug at a reasonable price? The eBay one is out of stock and the Amazon prices are just a bit too high for me to see them as a bargain 😂

Those who are using gift list, how do you set up separate lists? I've just downloaded the one with the yellow ribbon recommended up thread, and I already have ideas for next Xmas and want to track birthdays as well but can't see how to add another section

Lots of places doing nice Christmas mugs with initials - including b&m, Home Bargains etc etc

Here’s the Next ones which aren’t just for Christmas!

Matalan are doing free delivery for orders placed between 8am - 8PM today (also 20% off with their reward membership thing - sorry brain fog 🤷🏻‍♀️).

Loads of Slankets at around that price if you have a look, or decent Hoodie blankets for £7 at the moment (before postage)?

Thanks @Reastie - that's my stocking finished with a nice candle 😊

Just scrolled back and saw this so have ordered x 5 for co workers. With discount and postage £60 so slightly over budget but look lovely! Thank you.

Little shout out for my friends business. She is a fantastic business woman and has started this now successful tea business. She does these Christmas sets and a local lady makes the biscuits that go with them

The tea is aimed at 'mothers' but is actually just nice tea and this one has a Christmassy mulled wine vibe. 15% off with news letter sign up. Lots of other sets on the website.

A little reminder to check any cashback offers with your bank account. Lloyds have some good cashback deals atm so worth a look.

A request for help please 🙏

I saw this colour changing hot chocolate at a garden centre yesterday and would like to get it for hot choc obsessed DS. But I can only find it with a 5.00 delivery. Have you seen it anywhere?

Also if you're a regular Etsy shopper it's worth keeping an eye on the deals tab in the app as I've noticed if I favourite an item quite often a code will pop up in that tab. I've also had quite a few 20% off deals from sellers I've previously shopped with.

@SpottyBumPony which garden centre was it? I'm heading to a garden centre that's part of a small chain tomorrow and I can have a look and post out if it's the same chain?

Or could you ring the garden centre and see if they'd post - surely it's just the price of a stamp if it's one sachet?

Mornin sorry not very Christmassy but lots of threads ago someone recommended Fat Face sale on linen - bought and is lovely but a few people missed out - the blue is now back in the sale if anyone still wants

@EdenGlen can I ask about the Tech Boards. I have a scooter obsessed DS 11 who yabbers on about tail whips and decks which is like a foreign language to menopausal old me! Are the Tech Boards skateboard or scooter related? Thanks in advance!

Do you have a link for those?

Does Emma Bridgewater usually do free personalisation at some point in November or am I remembering wrong??!
