Thread 8 - the one with Poopy the troll

[Reastie]

@NobodyGivesADamn thanks for the title

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

Pm’d you one x

My son is 7 and still uses his all the time, grandparents got him it for his 6th birthday.

Can always move on to the more sophisticated instax/Polaroid type when a little older but as a starter I think these thermal ones are a great cheaper option. The quality is fairly basic but the main benefit is the paper rolls are cheap to buy so I don't really mind when he takes 384845 photos of his lego builds or the cat sleeping. Would be a different story if I was having to fork out for instax film!

Moonpig- get 40% off cards with code APP40 when you order through the app.

Just used this for an xmas card 'from the dog' 😅

Csn you link this please? I just got the camera for my 4yr old, so would love some extra rolls as I predict it'll all be gone by Christmas lunch time!

My daughter is 7 and I think she is gonna love it. I’m sure an 8 year old would too 😊

Hopefully the link I just sent works! 😊

@deeplybaffled & @Theonlywayisuptoyou

still showing with 50% off, for the green camera

try this link; copy link only up as far as the B0D4Z17YDG?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gofunly-Instant-Digital-Childrens-Birthday/dp/B0D4Z17YDG?

eta; that even with the MN tag it does still seem to work.

Try TLNBNMKJS ends today though.

The email I had said 20% off before Monday, then later in the email it says until Monday so I don't know what to make of it.

I get emails regularly, but I didn't get the one that said 20% off now online yesterday. I only have this I'm afraid.

Someone did post a 20% off online code yesterday, but you'd have to scroll back and see if that code works. I'll see I'd I can find it.

Just saw these food plushies in Matalan for £4

Any codes for white stuff around please?

15% off with code "BISCUITBALLET" for Early Bird Day 1!

(check daily for deals)

I have ordered from here before the quality is excellent

If you create an account you get for every £10 spent, you'll get £1 back in Pressie Points

These are the same as the ones in One Beyond and (I think) Hobbycraft. That are really good quality for the price. Not quite jellycat standard but honestly not too far off.

I got a hot chocolate and a Xmas pudding, and am planning to make trip to hobby craft for a pretzel.

My local aldi had pretzels and croissants last week. Worth checking.

My DD enjoys that sort of thing and I’ve bought her a lot from Revolution, they are quite reasonably priced and often have sales on. If you search ‘SFX’ or Halloween on their site it’s a good place to start. They have face paint/ palettes, plus things like fake blood, liquid latex and scar wax, and colour correcting / bruise kits. I also got her some little tools from Amazon and then a few sponges and brushes and she was away.

Thank you so much @Talisin and @RainbowZebraWarrior, I really appreciate your help, I will place my order today. Thank you again 😊

20% off at Biscuiteers with a code from Good Housekeeping
GHKXMAS24

There's some Mercedes Benz clothing on tkmaxx today for any F1 fans

My mum got this for my son on Blavk Friday last year and it was reduced then so might be worth waiting

The 50% off is still showing on all camera colour options for me.

After @Ilovepugs2017 suggestion for extra camera rolls from shein I thought I'd check temu (as that's what app I have installed) & found 5 rolls of white & 5 coloured rolls for £1.38

Has anyone seen the Home Alone Lego house better than what Disney Store has at the moment? They have it at £233, TCB has 10% cashback, or I could use the Rakuten cashback offer. Any other suggestions? I have 5 children, 4 of which would like large Lego sets so I'm trying to get the best offers I can!

This Lego is scanning at £4 in sainsburys.

Does anyone know where I can get Vans Classic Old Skool in adult size 8 at a good price? I can't see them anywhere for less than £65.
Thank you!

I have a unique code for 20% if you PM me
