Thread 14 - the one where we track our Fahlo turtles while snuggling under our heated blankets

Holding thread for @Reastie

See the second post on Thread 13 for the usual information.

Thanks also for the Boohoo man code. Got all I need clothes wise for Xmas, but I've sent the link to DS1 to choose a Xmas jumper for uni japes after exams. I'll send it straight to him too. DS2 is presently choosing one also - delighted that they do a tall range- for wearing the last week of school before Xmas (will look so stylish under a blazer 🙈).

I put 2 free & 2 paid in my order and it hasn't been dispatched

Could you please remind me of the boohoo man code/link? Was it a combination of code and cashback? I remember seeing it this morning but stupidly didn’t screenshot it.

@CrochetMadRosie i ordered 2 free and 1 £9 one and mines not been dispatched yet either 😬

@fishfingersandchipsagain
I think it was
MANFREE and MAN15.

but I can't see where to put the codes !

Have seen the makeup organisers mentioned a few times this year, sounds like there are cheap ones on temu etc or Debenhams have some ‘reduced’ like This one for example (there was a pop up for free postage today as well I think)

@HereForAdvice123 no worries I'll take a pic tomorrow later on; I've had to wrestle them back into the cupboard of doom!

What about a blender?

Yes, those are the codes for sure. I screenshotted it. Not checked out yet, so if you find where to put codes will be much appreciated

Hurrah! I'll be glad to pass these on for some enjoyment, they didn't look to happy to be wrestled back into the cupboard!

Thanks massively for the Vallente tip off. I got a Black Friday Box for £39 (worth £78) and one FREE!

A £40 spend gets you a free candle or diffuser with code on the page FREECANDLE or FREEDIFFUSER.

So I added a gift bag (material so looks nice) for £4, which are also BOGOF & got a free diffuser worth £21.

Free delivery over £25. I'm really chuffed: 3 diffusers, 2 candles, 2 room sprays for £43 is a bargain!

Has anyone seen that hexbug nano with the reindeer antlers anywhere?

This looks great! Gutted I've bought the one from whsmith the other week, wish I'd held off and bought this one instead!

Is cluedo junior decent for kids? DS8 and DS6

Any ideas for my DD (age 10), she wants a 'chocolate pen' from Smyth's that reviews terribly. Is there anything similar in the cake decorating/chocolate making/kitchen activities that could work as a nice gift?

Oh I remember having this dilemma a couple of years ago! See the reviews haven't improved. Mine was happy to get this chocolate bar maker instead https://www.amazon.co.uk/Moose-Toys-Chocolate-Bar-Maker/dp/B00PNAGN7Q

And we've since enjoyed a biscuit decorating kit off Etsy, which came with ready to squeeze coloured icing to an effect a lot like the pen but onto the biscuit blanks. Unfortunatley, the lady I bought from seems to only be selling other Christmas items at the moment so I can't link to the set we got but a search on Etsy might throw up similar

@slipperypenguin i haven't played junior but my 8 yr old has been playing normal Cluedo for over a year.

can anyone please suggest where to get a good price for a fleece dressing gown? the catch is it has to be GREEN (the brighter the better!)- thank you

Personalise a packet of love hearts for 89p including postage.
Use code BF10 to get that price. I think it might end at midnight.
Site is VERY slow, but I got there eventually!

Beanbag?
Beauty pod?
Hollywood mirror?

@BarryKentPoet and @Beingacatbed
Fingers crossed for us all then!
Thanks for the replies.

What about a cuddle cushion for when sitting in bed reading/watching tv, it’s large in size but around £20-£25 I think

You are a lifesaver, my 4 year olds only wish for Christmas was 'a dog that's a pet dog but not a real dog. A toy dog like a pet dog' to be precise. Thankyou 👍🏻

@LemonFrosting this has so much more. We actually have both sets (from ages ago) but I no longer have any idea what is from what as they are so well played with!

@Igglepiggleandhisboat I always tend to go to Wilko for plates. Cheap to replace as can often buy extras as the styles stay for a while. Although we are a particularly clumsy household so get 2 seats at a time! These are lovely. Top cash back gives a little off.

Not a dressing gown but Dunelm have this awesome hoodie In having to sit on my hands to stop myself buying it. They also have this bright one
