Evening all!

Welcome to the first prequel thread of 2025

These tend to run slower than the run up to Christmas ones but doesn't mean there are no bargains!

Happy Christmas Bargain Shopping!

For those of us who bought Outsmarted at Xmas the code YOUWIN5 takes £5 off with no minimum spend.

I got two new categories completely free.

Ooh this is fab, thank you!

Hairybauble · 01/03/2025 11:59

Hopefully everyone is sorted now, but I went to this link: https://www.outsmarted.co.uk/collections/question-categories?se_activity_id=191818596725&syclid=cv1fd0hnv5vc73bce1hg&utm_campaign=A+Gift+for+You%3A+%C2%A35+Free+Store+Credit%21+%F0%9F%8E%81%F0%9F%98%8D_191818596725&utm_medium=email&utm_source=shopify_email

Then used the code YOUWIN5 and I could choose anything up to the value of £5. I then had to redeem the codes they sent me by email through the app.

The code isn't working for me at checkout. I've added 3 items which comes to £5.97 I assumed it would just take off £5, hut it says it isn't available. Has anyone else had this?

Would anyone like £5 off at Hobbycraft?

No minimum spend, it’s my birthday voucher 🥰

Ooh yes please if no one has asked , I’ve signed up with them so many times and they never send me a birthday voucher . Many Happy Returns, and no worries if you have already DMd it to someone else.

rhubarbhandsoap · 01/03/2025 18:58

@Theraffarian it’s all yours! Only thing is when I try to message you it says private messages disabled, can you switch it on temporarily? 🥰

I’ve just checked and it looks like mumsnet has disabled it for us all since the previous issues they had with the site . If you are around at the moment and can pop the code here I’ve got my tiny order ready to go , but otherwise I’m sure someone else would love it , thank you .

I think MNHQ had to switch PMs off for a few days because someone was sending bad images

I have won a code for £20 voucher at gruum on my Vodafone Rewards today if it’s any use to anyone?

It says £3.95 delivery is applicable on orders under £30

I would love to use the grumm code! Thank you 😊

M&S seems to be reducing some of its sale prices overnight. The previous sale prices show when you look at the items, but can be cheaper when you look at them in your basket.

Later today the reduced prices might be showing on the main listings, and so not change when added to your basket.

I filter by size, and also by brand. It may be that only M&S things are getting cheaper so to save time I only select the various M&S ranges.

Mama surprise mini half price...

GrannyWeatherwaxsBroomstick · 07/03/2025 07:21

Foley Bay Yorkshire whisky has a buy one get one half price at the moment.
Throughout March only, when you buy a bottle of Filey Bay STR Finish Batch #4 or Filey Bay IPA Finish Batch #2 you can get a second bottle for half price.

Treat yourself to one of each or two of the same.

Free delivery included.

Add your items to the basket and use coupon code ‘INGOODSPIRIT2025’ at the checkout to activate the offer.

It's rather delicious according to DH

Can anyone who has a coffee machine help me out please…I bought my dad the nespresso vertuo that was on the bargain offer for Xmas.

My mom loves hot chocolate…with the convertible pods does that mean I can buy any hot choc pods and open them up and put inside the convertible? This might be a stupid question but can you put milk in the machine instead of water to make the hot choc with?

thank you in advance…I don’t drink hot drinks so pretty clueless!

I have a train mad child. Favourites are brio/bigjigs/ikea, thomas trackmaster and duplo train. The brio and trackmaster are still played with at 8 years old. Duplo, not played with for a while.

My now 4 year old is also train mad. The Thomas the Tank Engine busy book was very popular as it was something we could take with us when travelling (trains can fit in their pockets).

Also, he isn't particularly book obsessed, but LOVED two books in particular called Trains Trains Trains, or On the Tracks by Miles Kelly.

Don’t know about hot chocolate, but we’ve got the converter and get coffee pods from the supermarket. You literally put the whole pod in the converter. And we just microwave some milk in the mug, then put it under the coffee maker to make a latte.
