Thread 4 - the one with our Guylian best before fate

It was a toughie to pick the thread title this time!
Thanks to @RainbowZebraWarrior for the title Xmas Grin For those interested, our fate is best before June of next year and the offer was regarding Guylian choices at B&M.

Greetings and welcome one and all to a friendly and joyful corner of mn - the Christmas bargain thread. Here, we share Christmas present purchases, ideas, links and discount codes, with the aim to spread the Christmas magic and joy and reduce the financial stress.

It's a very busy thread, so see the tips below for helping everything run smoothly and avoiding repetitions of Cookiegate etc al. It's a lovely, friendly bunch and I'm so grateful to each and every one of you for building such a warm, fuzzy and generous spot on mn. I know I've save so much over the years and am so grateful to all of you for sharing.

Pull up a sleigh and relax with a mulled wine and mince pie, for Christmas has nearly arrived!

@ me if you need anything or you want to let me know anything - the thread moves so fast I can't always keep up so this really helps

A few pointers to make everyone’s life easier and the thread be as useful as possible:

  • It’s handy to put in bold the bargains so they’re easy to spot
  • No affiliate links
  • No need to place mark or post messages of hello or thanks at the start of a new thread - use the ‘watch thread’ button
  • Be nice or leave

The current referral thread for sharing referral codes https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/christmas/4940918-4940918-bargain-referrals-thread-6 . Please use this rather than this page to share referral links to make the sharing fair.

To make clicks links, you set it up like this only without any spaces apart from between the website and the word(s) you’re writing: www.bargainsahoyeveryonecomehere.co.uk

Thanks @RainbowZebraWarrior for the instructions below.
To make something bold, put this star * either side of the word you want to bold (with no spaces in between)

So starhellostar would look like this.

hello

Obviously use the * not the word star

Some of the below is copied and pasted from previous years, so do @ me if the links don't work

In regards to aldi there was loads at our store this morning (went after school run so wasn't queueing before opening!)

I did get 2 carrot cakes for friends who then decided they want the sprinkle cakes , if anyone missed out I'm happy to post them for the amount I paid plus postage, not trying to make money out of people. Otherwise I'll be returning them!

Thanks Babynumberthreeee. I’d be interested if postage was less than a fiver. Do you have any idea what it would cost to post. Just not sure how heavy it is. Sorry to be a pain. Thanks

Apparently the best jeans ever, so ive heard but cant get any as they sell out

God I’m so easily influenced. Just went on M&S site as was curious what they were, they had my size in two colours as luck would have (size 12, only size they had left) so I bought them 🙈 This thread is dangerous haha.
But on the plus side I checked my sparks offers first and had 15% off jeans so I actually saved money 😅

Has anyone bought from The Vault uk.com?
I'm after some mini Ugg boots for my daughter and they're selling them for £119 as opposed to everywhere else selling at £145.

Have you looked to see if you have the 15% discount? If you do then it would be rude not to 😉

I think it moved to the referral thread to keep this one less about codes.
