Christmas Bargain Prequel Thread 2

[Sideorderofchips]

6 months to go!

That Lego set is marvellous

Seems you did pretty well yourself getting it for that price six months ago! He has recently become obssessed with Dreamzzz and recently got the flying school bus which he loved!

Does anyone have a code for Smiths? EARLY20 isn't working anymore. My previous order was glitchy and it wouldnt let me remove items from my basket so I abandoned it. I want my 20%!!

@tabbycat985 if he hasn't got a Squishmallow type toy, they're fab - like a cross-between a soft toy and a huggable pillow. I got a copy-cat one from Aldi before Christmas for my 13 year old boy and thought he might reject it for being too babyish but he loves it because so tactile (he's neurodiverse, so likes sensory things).

The real Squishmallow ones are quite pricey, but you can get franchise character ones, like this:
Hedwig £18.99
Pokemon £29.99

or something more generic like this one, which is reduced at Argos:
Red Frilled Lizard £13

@tabbycat985
or something like this, which are 2 for £20 for bigger ones at The Entertainer
Chewbacca

Squishmallow would be my suggestion too.

Ooh, this looks very good at that price! Is onbuy legit?? Never heard of them before and must check there's a way to ship hete, fingers crossed....

I’ve just been putting stuff I don’t really need in my basket (sale items) & once I got to £30 it automatically applied 20% off without me having to enter a code etc…?

Speaking of Lego dreamzz, the camper van is £25 on Amazon at the mo.

Thanks @goinguphill for the WH Smith info.

I got a few bits of lego/duplo which were reduced plus the 'extra20' code!

Sorry, I linked the wrong one! Meant to link this one, which is a similar price, at AliExpress. I've not ordered from there, but I think I've seen others on this group say they've ordered from them and not had a problem with the items they've received.
I've no idea whether you'd be able to get postage to Ireland though...

Thank you for this, sent on to my sister to get for my sons bday! Great price!

Thanks for the Smiths tip, I hadn't realised it did it automatically! Got a few more ticked off the list and giving the air hockey a go for my two as a joint gift at Christmas!

@tabbycat985 I recently had a similar request and got one of these jellycat sports amusables which was well received.

@tabbycat985 my 10yo DS was asking me for this yesterday if it’s helpful

Thank you! I've ordered many times from Aliexpress and they do ship here. Excellent price, I could even stretch to buying the one with the box!

Accessorize has 20% off if you sign up for the newsletter.

Still very popular with teenagers

@LittleMousewithcloggson I was just about to post about white fox. Just been stitched up for £42 for some shorts & a tshirt.

I’m nervous that white fox say they don’t accept returns on sale items. Is that even legal, I thought there were rules on distance selling? Plus I only knew them for hoodies, when I look the website doesn’t display the kind of image I want to encourage in my pre teen dd. Maybe I’m being an old fuddy duddy.

@ArthriticAardvark I brought something on sale before but it wasn't right so rather than faff with a return I just put it on Vinted at the sale price so it went quickly. I think returns can be a pain
The hoodies are decent but they are big.
My DD is a size 10 & she is happy in a S/M. It's oversized on her but that's what she wants

Australian based company so different laws re distance selling
Most teenagers only wear the hoodies, T shirts, joggers and shorts and they are absolutely fine and very good quality
Agree with you about some of the other “outfits”!
Not worth trying to return but, as pp said, very easy to sell on
My Youngest DD is also a size 10 and has a mixture of Xs/s and s/m
Eldest is a 16 and wears M/L or L/XL (very baggy)

Wow it's lovely to see others thinking of Christmas!

Helllooooo9!!!

I've changed name since last year but a regular every year for the last 5 years or so!

I've got dc some bargains over the last few months and so this thread is great to see!

Thanks all.

Just place marking!!

Smiggle have a code to make it 40% off sale rather than the 30% that’s already applied online. It’s VIPTAF40. Just restocked my present box with things like packs of gel pens, note pad sets etc etc. spent £50.10 to get free delivery and saved £70!

Just popping on to ask if anyone has seen/sees any deals on soft play blocks (Like a step, slide, etc.)?

No rush as I am thinking of getting some for my little one for Christmas - just if anyone spots a good deal!! TIA x
