Thread 16 - the one with two turtle fingerless gloves

[Reastie]

This thread title made me think I should make up a 12 days of christmas song for all the main bargains we've got! Thanks@Yalz and @ApiratesaysYarrr for the inspo on the title.

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.

How to do click links -

• Do two
• Paste in your link without a space between the [ and the start of the link
• Do one space at the end of the link
• Write what you want to appear instead of the link
• Put 2 at the end without a space between the end of the word(s) at the end and the ]]
• So it looks like [[http://www.reastieschristmasbargains.co.uk www.reastieschristmasbargains.co.uk but with no space between the and the start of the link and the next to the here

I hope that makes sense…

Present tracking apps might be of interest eg Santas bag, gift list.

Here are some useful websites:

Amazon free delivery tool here

Aliexpress [[http://www.aliexpress.com www.aliexpress.com . Useful tips here from sorryiasked: Aliexpress is a Chinese site that sells everything! Assume all branded stuff is fake. I personally wouldn't buy baby toys or electronics from there as I don't have faith in the product safety. But for fan merchandise, dolls clothes, "lego", household items etc it's great. Check the size guide on clothes and lower your expectations!
Use a seller who has a 4.5 star rating or higher.
You can pay via PayPal and there is an excellent tracking system, but be aware express postage is usually 2-3 weeks and standard postage up to 2-3 months.

Bargainmax here

Camelcamelcamel is a brilliant site that tracks prices on amazon here

Lisa angel sale is popular when on, apparently arrive nicely packaged too here

Magazine subscription offers here and here

Netpricedirect has discount toys and party bits here although be aware reviews of the site is mixed

Toys for a pound here

Any additional websites or recommendations to add - just let me know . I should add something about Ali express maybe as we’ve had that before…will get my brain thinking about what other sites/products have been popular.

Thanks @Reastie.

Thanks for the new thread

Thanks

Matalan FREE delivery until 8pm tonight with code DELIVERY

£19.99 minimum spend for this one. Which seems a bit scroogey

I’m still looking for a HotDiamonds stacking code if anyone knows one that works. Best I have found is just MSE40 + JEWELS for 40% off with free delivery. I’ve seen other codes but nothing that stacks.

Has anyone found a working White Company code? Please and thank you

Can I ask for advice please?

I am buying my nieces books for Christmas this year. I want them to feel like “special” ones.
But need a suggestion for my Niece age 3 please?

For comparison, the books I’ve bought for her Sisters are a Robert Sabuda pop up book and a Story Orchestra book.

Could anyone offer me any recommendations please? Thank you :-)

@GirlWithTheYellowHat try this - should work for 15% off a £50 spend, plus free delivery

I have £5 off a £30 spend or £10 off a £60 spend at The Entertainer if anyone would like the codes.

Thanks for the Skinny Food Co ideas in the previous thread. Just picked up some extra stocking fillers 👍

My 2yr 9month old loves it when we get the Peter Rabbit books out.
Technically they are mine as I had them as a 30th birthday present to remind me of my childhood, but he asks for them all the time.
Decent deal here
I think they feel special but not if you want specific Christmas books.

@Andreseal Ive got a beautiful book called Mouse's Wood for my 19mo - it goes through seasons.

The Christmas Book Flood looks beautiful too

Thanks for the new thread

My 3y/o twins asked Father Christmas for a power ranger at the weekend. Specifically pink and red/black. Has anyone seen any?

I also have entertainer codes I'm not going to use, £5 off £30 and £10 off £60. Please tag or pm me if you'd like one

A pp on the previous thread asked about Grape Prime, we found it in JD sports but that was a month or so ago so not sure if they still have it. It did taste revolting though!
On the subject of Prime has anyone seen the lemonade one? It's on my ds Xmas list. Thanks

@Ewock our nearest Tesco express has lemonade (& glowberry) prime for £2 a bottle. Haven’t seen it in the bigger stores so a city/town centre tesco express store would be worth a look if you have one nearby

Bridal beauty have got £35 mystery bags back in.

anyone taking the punt?

cult beauty have an amazing GWP on spends over £160 I have been waiting on a beauty bargain and have saved all the gifts I need to buy for something like this so I think I’m going in 😂

Thank you, Reastie, for the new thread.

My first Christmas gift - I’ve been mentioned in a Reastie post. 😊

Thanks so much we have one near us

@Clucket87 Thank you :-) no don’t want Christmas themed. Feels a bit boring buying books but they have loads of toys already so “special” books make me feel a bit better about it.

My local Sainsbury’s had tonnes of Prime in the energy drinks section when I was there this morning.

For my little boys first Christmas, I just asked for books for him.
I agree they have masses of toys and he loves going and getting a book from the bookcase and reading it after nursery. So I'm right with you in terms of getting books!
I also have the Winnie the Pooh set and I know he has the Mr Men box set coming this year. Xx
