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

Anyone seen any bargains on nice bath stuff? My sister's just had a new bathroom put in. I've already got a present for her so I don't want to spend loads, but some nice smellies or bits for the bathroom would be great.

Honestly think long and hard about the elf, there for life. My dcs are 17 & 12 and he still visits, mind you he is semi retired and helps train the younger elves which is my excuse so I don’t have to do so much. The genuine elves can be found in ikea (not sure if they still have them)

Hi I posted at the end of the last thread so just posting again incase, if anyone had a spare Argos code I could have I would be so grateful. Spend is just under 100 x

Thanks so much for this - this was the last present on my list for my toddler and I’ve been waiting for it to drop in price - got the Yoto Mini for £43! Almost all of the cards are sold out on the site but hopefully I can get some bargain ones from elsewhere. Love these threads!

Kate Spade have 30% off their outlet. I had been lusting after a purse for ages, went back to my saved link and cost around £62, very chuffed. Not to everyone's taste but I love sparkle https://www.katespade.co.uk/products/tinsel-boxed-medium-compartment-bi-fold-wallet/K9254-500.html?frp=K9254%20US2

Many other items too.

Huge thank you for this! Been waiting for a good discount on a Yoto Mini so really appreciate this!

Our original elf came with a book that we read multiple times every year. I must be a sap as it actually makes me cry 😪 We now have 2 of the scamps visit as another one pitched up when child 2 arrived. Luckily the whole Elf responsibilities lay with my other half so I just enjoy waking up to see what hijinks have occurred 🎅🏻

Does anyone have a discount code for WackySox? Think there might be a student one, thanks!

I've been looking at this exact purse too! It's beautiful 😍

Just seen peppa pigs cruise ship is £24.99 at the entertainer, originally £50. Not gonna tell my parents as they have already got it on prime day for £36.99 😶‍🌫️

If anyone is after the Lego succulent kit it's currently £38, the lowest it's been according to 3 camels. I believe there is a new version due out in December though if that matters to your gift recipients - my DS won't care!

Thanks for the Amazon BF update- I wouldn't have even looked yet!

Hi, I messaged you an argos code.

Blinked and missed 3 threads!!! I have bought the mini ‘worlds smallest’ version of the elf, £7.99 each from Debenhams, free delivery and Cashback through top cash back. Fair play it’s tiny, but not creepy. Never done it before, but think the small one might be easier?

@Cubic I'm glad I'm not the only magpie, I have 2 DDs (3&5) one who loves purple, the one I chose, I only hope she doesn't take it. Especially as currently I can never find my HUGE roxy purse, my keys, phone... such a scatter brain (that and fibro lol).

If you hurry, sorry short notice (before midnight tonight - 17/11). Ohh Deer have their boxes for £5 plus postage - use code LOVESTATIONERY

My friend used to work there so I’ve tried a lot of their stuff. I think the thick moringa body cream in the tin is great, strong scent and lovely for dry skin. My ds likes the charcoal face mask ( combination skin). On the whole I think it’s expensive for what it is.

@mousegiggles1 you're definitely not the only magpie. I love this too

Thanls for the new thread.

DP has announced he'd like some merino or merino mix PJs. Nothing like being difficult! Anyone got any ideas? 🙈

I missed the earlier sock advent deal/glitch but would love something similar for my OH. Has anyone seen any good deals on anything similar?

The works had elves when I went in earlier

Woollen pyjamas, is he sure!? Sounds like something you'd ask for during WW2

🤣🤣🤣 That's really tickled me. He doesn't wear PJs to bed, he wears them kicking around the house/ lounging of an evening. He has brushed cotton/ flannelette ones which are super cosy, but he feels like an old man in them 😀. Looking for plain. He has merino base layers for outdoor sport, so I suppose that's the general feel he's after.

Have found Scandinavian ones at £££ (like £250) bit that's not happening.

ok that makes more sense. DS discovered Merino wool socks from a Scandi army surplus store. They have long john type things in merino
