Christmas Bargain Prequel Thread 1 - welcome 2025

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!

Fab white fox sale. My 13 was wanting a hoodie 6 months ago but I refused to pay those prices. I’m hoping she still wants one as I’ve just bought her 2. She is very much into the tracksuits style, she wears her PLT ones a lot so hoping the WF goes down well. Bough a tracksuit and hoodie each for my 11 & 13 yos will give hoodies now and save tracksuits until Christmas. Also got a canvas bag for 11yos PE kit when she starts high school in September hoping I’ve got it right 🤞 I was at the Dua Lioa concert in Liverpool last night and saw loads of WF.

Melissa and Doug fishing set is down to £19.34 on Amazon. I’ve just bought one for my son who will be 4 at Christmas. Comes in a carry case to keep all the bits together - would make a lovely present. Melissa and Doug toys are really durable as well - we have lots that have lasted ages and are still in great condition.

Huge Nerf gun for just £6.37
It would be great to bulk out a present pile!

Baker Ross has a good sale on for all little stocking fillers! I’ve got some for the baby plus little presents for his friends who have birthdays coming up

@Sideorderofchips quite close to the end here- would you mind doing the honours please? Thank you for all your Christmassy service 🤩

I’d be careful with White Fox and buying to put away. They’re clever with their releases and version numbers, so those in the know will know they’re not in the latest iteration. If you’re not bothered about that then crack on, but my teen would very much know I’d scammed her!

Emma Ball has further reductions in its sale, for example this bone china mug with a gift box for £3, reduced from £12.50.

They have lots of cards for £1 or 50p each, washi tape reduced from £2.20 to 50p, and keyrings £3 down to £1.

The site is very slow for me at the moment.

Free postage £35+

Everything will keep until Christmas!

Hi,

Someone on here - maybe @hby9628 - was after an M&S Beauty Bag - there were a few back in stock at my local M&S yesterday. Staff told me there had been a limited restock.

Morning! Will make new thread now. Less than 6 months to go!

Thanks Chips

@IlovePondyes it was me! My DD checked the Trafford centre last week & they didn’t have any. I might try my local store tomorrow. Thank you. It’s a shame they didn’t put any online if they had spare.

I agree. I don't see much White Fox around any more and teen dd definitely wouldn't wear it if I bought it now. Still a lot of Adenola around

I have a code for £5 off at Bloom & Wild if anyone needs to send someone flowers THANKYOU5NPS
