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.

@MerylSqueak there's a black and white one too comes up if you search farm calendars, depending on your recipient.

I am still waiting for Fahlo. Two paid for and two free ones I think. I am rather losing hope and interest tbh. Have chased and been fobbed off twice but not has the order cancelled yet.

Has anyone actuallg tried to track their gorilla/penguin/polar bear? The cynic in me feels it is probably a piece of seaweed in the isle of Man or something...

Possible contender for next thread (what may be the last thread of the year) The one with the piece of seaweed off the Isle of Man.

Hotel Chocolat have £10 off orders with the code JUSTFORYOU.

Does anyone know of any other codes that can be stacked with it?

Stripedfluffysocks · 14/12/2023 19:26

Sorry, just to add, the money works on the Festive Just For You Collection.

HeartandSeoul · 14/12/2023 19:29

Code off, I meant to type (not money!)

Fahlo again - did anyone that ordered more than one free one get more than one free one delivered?

I ordered 4 - they sent me 2!

Another Seasalt sale has started. There are jute shoppers from £2.95, originally priced at £8, most in Christmas designs.

They are useful bags to put Christmas presents in, perhaps, and for socks. The clothes don’t seem to be reduced much yet.

The email they sent said the link was early access for VIPs this evening. I’m not sure if it will work if you’re not a VIP, but I wasn’t signed in and it was fine for me.

Edit - delivery is free to their stores, or for orders over £60.

Thank you to the pp who shared the piglet’s pantry discount code. I ordered the afternoon tea as a gift which was delivered today. Not only was it an absolute bargain but the receipt said it’s the best afternoon tea they’ve ever had! Thanks again.

Ilovecashews · 14/12/2023 21:02

A question for everyone please, before if I was going to my cart on Amazon there was a section where prices that had risen or dropped were highlighted. Something like 'these items in your basket have recently changed price'. I cannot see it anymore, and I was wondering whether it was me or if they had changed the option for everyone? Thank you

It was me who originally posted the code. So pleased it was well received. I have an order due next week, can’t wait.

Anyone looking for wind up toys as stocking fillers, I used this seller this (and last) year they're a bit more interesting than the usual.

Purple lady wind up toy

In his other items there's the elephant and ball, snail, green man, pink lady, blue man, caterpillar and butterfly. I think the duck I got has sold out.

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 :-)

Sorry if you have already been suggested these but I love books and are house is crammed as I struggle to give them away.

  • 5 minute nature stories by Gabbay Dawnay has been a recent hit with my dd who is 4, the illustrations are beautiful and it’s rhyming.
  • A quiet quiet house, again beautiful illustrations, and fun search and find element ( by Georgiana Deutsch).

My local TK Maxx had loads in recently at about £30 a pair if any help?

Herefordeals · 14/12/2023 22:19

Oh wow really? Thanks so much, I'll head there tomorrow before spending a fortune online! Thanks.

imnottoofussed · 14/12/2023 22:21

I also got some cyber jammies online from Tkmaxx this week

@ThisHouseWillBeTheDeathOfMe I got the elephant last year after your recommendation and it was such a hit, thank you! All the kids that come round seem fascinated by it.

TheCrow · 14/12/2023 22:42

Found the brilliant tape dispensers in Card Factory for a bargainous £1.49! Got one for my 12 year old as she keeps 'borrowing' mine for her craft projects

We love the elephant too!

DD also has the purple lady who does the splits and jumps back up, DS got the green man version. Personally I don't get why it's so funny but they both get the extreme giggles when we set them off.

I've gone for the pink and blue shaky hips figures this year, they look like they're jiving!
