A named stocking or lovely book is a great idea to keep. I bought the Wintertide bear last year for my cousins baby who was 3 months old at the time and made a personalised bauble. Like you, I thought they might be inundated with first Christmas stuff, so I got this mother and baby box, too which is brilliant value. £22 from Next with contents worth £96.

Hamleys have 20% off jellycats, I know a lot of people have been looking for some.

@Yojjy I rec one of the baby black & white books - just bought for a friend expecting in a month. They can use it from now so nice to have something for the now baby iykwim

Shamelessly bumping my own post in a plea for help. The 20% off at VERY for new credit account users is definitely the ONLY way I can get the MacBook. They have already approved my credit. But I can’t figure out where to put the code to take the 20% off, nor whether I can use the “buy now pay later” with the 20% off.

Help? Please oh wise ones 😊I know I’ve seen this asked before but can’t find the answers.

Anybody seen any bargainous steam mops recently?

Trinny London have a rare sale on, I’ve added my referral code to the referral thread for a free full sized eyeshadow with &30 spend

20% off at big potato games; plus free delivery over £25 I think. Herd mentality expansion packs included!

@Yojjy what about a personalised book from Letterfest. They also plant a tree for the recipient and you get a map showing where it has been planted.
20% off at the minute for BF.

You won't be able to get it as your credit limit needs to cover the item cost before discount sorry

I've had this with very before where I've got nervous after each page of the checkout that the voucher box isn't going to appear but its right near the very end after the delivery page. I've just gone to fake order something to try and find out exactly which page it's on but I got nervous at the delivery page that I was accidentally going to buy it!

Oops @Happyhippos21 don't all 18 month olds need caffeine!!! i clearly do so I can read posts properly 🙄

For people with actual teen girls -

Des vu have 25% off site wide. Lots out of stock but some available.

Has anyone here ordered from The Chocolate Society? If so, would you recommend?

With Very I accidentally ordered something when trying to find the box for code. The cancellation was easy luckily.

Thanks for this - I was due to place a huge order with them. Fingers crossed they aren’t in trouble and you get your order 🤞

Lots of complaints on Twitter re Laithwaites, def something going on.

There has been something put on X about the delays etc.
Might explain some of the delays for people. Xx

20% off everything at CocoaLoco

@Cornishqween what is your budget? I showjump so could maybe help with horsey ideas

@Mytribeof3 I've just reordered the Box of the Month (Almost Perfect) and two cinnamon toast chocolate bars. I took a punt on them last month and obviously thought it was worth going back! We keep the box of the month as a 'special box', twice a week my DC and I sit on my bed and pick which one we're going to try. Even the flavours which sounded weird were nice!
My son absolutely loves the Cinnamon bar so I've bought one for his stocking as a surprise.

I'd definitely recommend and another pp here confirmed to me that they are good when I was ordering too ☺️
Edited to add, I ordered an hour ago and just had a 'your shipment is on its way,' email.

Thanks

Have about £70 ish quid left to spend on her. She really liked les meiux type stuff a few years back but I know nothing about horses. Have so far added this brush to my basket

gsequestrian.co.uk/products/haas-brushes-schimmel?variant=32770242543664

That's about it

Thank you so much for the VERY help 🙂

I might try giving them a phone to see if there is anything they can do.

@poignant so sorry I made you accidentally order!

@frecklejuice my dd got it for her 8th bday and adored it, has made so much with it and she's not a kid who sits still for long. Equally my 11 year old old niece had a ball playing with it too so I've got her one for Xmas. I'd say it's quite universal

@Mytribeof3 Ive been waiting for ages for a sale at The Chocolate Society and have stocked up on bulk hot chocolate for the year! Once you try hot chocolate with chocolate you will never go back to powder and now DS feels the same, we get through a lot. (Especially as it’s ’one for the cup, one for the mouth’). I love their hot choc.
They also sell the chocolate shaker that was popular last year and again, once you shake your hot choc, you can never go back.
I’ve tried their malt balls and in all honesty would probably prefer Maltesers. Their chocolate covered orange peel is gorgeous.
20% off all until midnight Monday

Thanks @Beckafett & @dancemom those are exactly the sort of thing I was after.
