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.

They’re gorgeous. If it helps there’s 10% off first orders.

Went through Look Fantastic and got it for £28 instead of £40 so bit better and got wuidco hopefully.

thank you

I wasn’t ‘whining’ about them cancelling my order, I was complaining about the fact that their email was unnecessarily aggressive, I can totally understand why they cancelled the order, but there was no need to make me feel bad about an automatically entered code.

Any recommendations or ones to avoid for puzzles made from pictures of your own? So many companies, want something decent quality

The ones from photobox are ravensburger ones & good quality. Often a discount code floating round too!

Asda christmas clothing sale is online, if you go on rewards you can get an extra 10% off too. I got some normal clothes in the sale as well, lots of girls pjs

Smyths have 3 for 2 on all board games so can make them cheaper than Amazon especially if you stockpile for future birthdays.

Yeknom · 17/12/2023 09:39

Has anyone seen any of those Byoma sets in stock anywhere??! (WHY DIDNT I ORDER IT AT THE TIME 🙈)

Did anyone but the White Stuff men's sock calendar?

Todays look like sharks but am I missing something and it's actually not sharks and it's something Christmas themed instead?

PersonWithInternalGonads · 17/12/2023 10:00

At least Hotel Chocolat cancelled the orders immediately rather than Fahlo's piecemeal sending some, not others, a bit of an order here and there, and no communication about any of it.

I bought this calendar for DH and he got some shark socks the other day

I collected my hotel chocolat order in store with no issues. If you get a text saying it’s there you shouldn’t have a problem, just in case anyone is worried about going.

i did my order early on Friday; when I put it through I see on the confirmation email it just says discount but then later on I got another one and it says staff discount later.

Dogmatix34 · 17/12/2023 11:37

Do you think it’s connected to the size of the order with Hotel Chocolat? I ordered the £30 festive gift box for £15 but had nearly ordered it with a £10 off code earlier in the week so not a huge difference in discount. I’ve not had a dispatch email yet though.

hiredandsqueak · 17/12/2023 11:41

My small HC order hasn't been cancelled yet. I opted for next day delivery and paid with Paypal so will wait and see if it turns up. If not I will order the hot chocolate on Amazon instead.

reluctantlogin · 17/12/2023 11:58

hi - I may be missing something but how did you get 4 of the chapel down/ choc ones @ £29 each ? Thanks

Same here. Mine was a small order and I paid for next day but hasn't been dispatched yet or cancelled. I didn't realise the hot chocolate was on Amazon!

Have just ordered 4 Fenwick Hampers- giving an extra 15% off. Thanks

My hotel chocolat order is in store.

Houseofsardines · 17/12/2023 12:33

Hi sorry does anyone have any entertainer codes that they aren’t going to use? please? I would be very grateful

My mil just emailed me this morning to say she’s going to transfer £25 per child to me next week so I can buy and wrap presents for each child to open on Christmas Day. Groan.

fishfingersandchipsagain · 17/12/2023 12:42

There’s a £10 bonus on Quidco today for a £50 spend on a whole bunch of retailers including Hotel Chocolat, M&S, Debenhams

Any good beauty box reductions? SIL has told DH 'something girly or pamper'.

The OK Christmas beauty box looks good and is reduced to £39. It apparently has over £300 worth of products in it

Squ1ggle · 17/12/2023 13:31

I've not had a HC cancellation yet although I won't grumble at all if they do. I ordered a velvetiser which I don't really need. I didn't chose next day delivery but I did pay with PayPal so I wonder if that has anything to do with it 🤔

SootspriteSearcher · 17/12/2023 13:47

Anyone real life shopping Tesco had lots of deals on toys. Loads of different blind boxes/balls etc up to half price, soft toys less than half price, funko pop figures up to half price too. Too many to list individually but if you are looking for toys pretty much everything had a reduction of some kind!

I got Five nights at freddys funko half price, adopt me ball £4 instead of £5, harry potter ooshies half price at £1.25.

They also had a taylor swift fan pack magazine for £10.99. It includes some collectable art cards, large poster, a couple of smaller posters an stickers. Expensive but a nice gift for Swifties!
