Thread 13 - the one with the loot from Black Friday

13 - unlucky for some. Let's hope it's very lucky for us!

I bought a couple of things in the Black Friday sales - an amazon stick (I'm pretty sure we couldn't just bought a smart tv by now with the amount we've got through as they break after a year or so) and noise cancelling headphones for DD. Hope you're all getting through the lists - December is fast upon us!

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.

My laithwaites order arrived today! My mum or dad would be horrified to receive such a tiny bottle of wine, not doing secret Santa this year, no one else to gift them to ….oh well! Happy Christmas me!!

Anyone seen any chocolate covered Turkish delight? Don’t think Thornton’s do it anymore 🥹

Saw some in B&M today, almost bought some but we buy Turkish delight from a Christmas market closer to Christmas (or I will eat it all).

@Lovemusic82 I bought one for DS from Temu. First time I've bought from there and got sucked in to buying all sorts of crap because of the bargain prices, most of which is going back! The projector is brilliant though! Really impressed. They seem to have lots of options on what the projection is - I got an undulating, watery pattern.

Thank you, have ordered 2 different ones.

@buckeejit I sent them a message and this is their reply:

@Delahot tesco do turkish delight thins - a bit like after eights but with turkish delight 🙂

LemonFrosting · 28/11/2023 19:08

I'd really like one of the fahlo tracking bracelets for myself but have given up as the codes/postage seem to bring up random prices!!

Thelifeofawife · 28/11/2023 19:16

@coolpattern they are doing mystery boxes discounted, and further discount for bundles.
Waiting for mine to arrive. My last haul was good, just hoping I don’t get a load of duplicates (well, some I wouldn’t mind)

I'm also on the weighted blanket hunt. Looking for a 2.5-3kg with a fleecy or soft furry type feel if anyone has spotted anything similar?

The Range have them at reasonable prices listed on-line. I haven't looked in store

Herefordeals · 28/11/2023 19:36

Is the Laithwaites deal still on? Trawled the thread but can't find it.

Waystation · 28/11/2023 19:36

@LemonFrosting I just had an email offering free shipping - use code EXPLOREMORE

CanIPutTheTreeUpYet · 28/11/2023 19:47

@Herefordeals I've just had a look for you and unfortunately they're sold out now.

@CanIPutTheTreeUpYet thanks for checking! Appreciate that.

Puffalicious · 28/11/2023 20:00

Thanks so much for all the sweets advent calendar/ selection box ideas. Skittles sounds ideal, so will try the Farm foods near work tomorrow. You guys are the best!

Also, whoever recommended the Mia heated blanket from Amazon, thank you, it arrived & looks just gorgeous. I think it looks good value at £39.99.

BippityBobbityBoo · 28/11/2023 20:06

Does anyone know how to get the best discount on craft gin sub please. I’ve never used them before, thanks

Sadly it says no longer valid. But when I was using that code previously when it worked, it was coming up as £10 delivery

MrsChristiesChristmasCake · 28/11/2023 20:09

@LemonFrosting Do you live in Scotland? Or were you trying to order one free bracelet on its own?

MammaGnomes · 28/11/2023 20:22

Has anyone seen the Byoma so hydrating skin care set in stock anywhere?

I'm in England. I tried without any codes, shipping was £9.95. Tried with free shipping and it came up as £9.95. Tried this with bith free bracelets and full price. I gave up as there was that much jumping back and forth between the UK and us site. Now I've received four emails off them today!!

BottomRusseller · 28/11/2023 20:33

Fahlo - somehow i made an order for 2 bracelets but without a free one, but with the exploremore code. I emailed and asked if they could add a free one, they cancelled it instead. So I made another order with a free bracelet but they wouldn't let me re-use the exploremore code, although by adding it I went from US to UK site! Found another code online for 20% off which didn't cover the £4.95 p&p but was better than nothing.

lemonsmum · 28/11/2023 20:36

@MammaGnomes I ordered it on Amazon a couple of weeks ago it's saying 14/12- 23/1. 🤞 It'll come in time if not I'm putting it away for her birthday and be last min popping to boots/ superdrug luckily she hasn't asked for a certain brand.
