John Lewis have some cashmere jumpers and cardigans half price (women’s) in limited colours and sizes

My local FatFace had a decent sale on today. I picked up a couple of dresses less than half price.

Thanks, for the new thread.

My Crayola craft box arrived today and it's huge! I think it's quite young but fine for 5 year old nephew.

ELC via the entertainer have BOGOF on all their toys however they seem very overpriced to start with!

Whatthecluckingcluck · 26/06/2025 21:12

The Crayola activity sets that were mentioned in the last thread have gone down further and are now £6.66. I brought 2 as Xmas presents at £7.40 and I’ve now ordered another 2 for birthday presents! Perfect for the plethora of party invites of 4/5 year olds!

Next clearance have a few nice Christmas bits. I got a snoopy Xmas tshirt, Hamish PJs, and an advent brain teaser game. They also haven odd socks advent calendar which looks good, but I am still stocked (socked?) up from White Stuff.

Has anyone else received a gift card from M&S as an apology for having their order cancelled during the cyber attack? Seems a bit counter productive for them to send those out when they’re down millions but very nice of them if it’s not a scam.

Argos have some great clearance offers on toys.

Yes I got one yesterday for £10 after they cancelled my £250+ order in April.

I think it's fair; it caused me a lot of hassle as it was stuff for my mum which I then had to find elsewhere. They didn't refund it for some time, and even then it was in dribs and drabs rather than one lump sum.

hby9628 · 27/06/2025 10:02

Thank you I’ve just ordered a couple of crayons sets for the Xmas toy appeal.

Not christmassy but I have a national trust free pass for this weekend that I can no longer use. It does have some exclusions but is valid until sunday for 2 adults and 3 kids max. If anyone can make use of it please dm your email and I'll forward it on.

Thanks @Sideorderofchips . I was only thinking yesterday I need t go through the resent cupboard and start planning Christmas. I was even considering starting my wrapping in the summer holidays to have a less stressful autumn/winter!

Probably hoping most people will go in and spend more than the gift card amount. I probably would if I was sent one.
