Thread 10 - the one with a rubber dick each

[Reastie]

Thanks @CalliopePlantain for the title. Lord of the Rings rubber dick anyone?!

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

Kicked out of boots website with over £100 in the basket. When I get back in if it's all gone they can forget it!

Bullet vibrator. 😁

Kidding, sort of. See my list above. I love a bargain!

Thanks hugsandpugs.

Still can't get onto boots .

@Webbb a bargain is a bargain 😉

sent 😊

I’ve been trying all morning to get on boots too

I can’t keep up this year so not sure if already posted but if you search O2 priority for ‘handmade Christmas co’ they’re doing the £1.50 personalised ornaments again. I’ve never had Priority before but had to search to find it.

Saying that, if anyone isn’t going to use their code I could do with a spare please ☺️

@Thelittlehouseonthehill ooo this is really good to know thank you! I do have access to a Costco card so will have to go and have a look 😊

BENEFIT free kit if you spend £30, including on sale items.

(Click the picture to see the full size image as code is at the bottom)

Just saw this, incase it's any good for anyone.

Code for ornament VM2T7K4B6S0J8M0G

They also have a code for 30% off a range of personalised decs if anyone wants it.

Thanks for the cricut hobbycraft info - great deal, hoping the bundle comes back into stock and I will go for it.

what do we think about smyths - are they likely to do any vouchers for Black Friday?

Thank you! I like putting them on my charity secret Santa child’s gift as a little extra!

Did anyone ever receive the Tonys chocolate from O2 priority? Mine never appeared!

Someone can have my code for the £1.50 decoration:

Yes, I did. It was a bar of the sea salt one. I was on my period and literally opened the envelope and ate the bar within 2 minutes 😂

Looks like this really was the thread with the rubber dicks
