The Christmas Bargain Thread No 2 - The one where it all went very fast

[RainbowZebraWarrior]

Posting on behalf of @Reastie as I'm guessing she's busy and the last thread was almost full.

This post is a work in process and if you have any links you’d like to share or would be good to add then please do let me know. The general consensus for the thread is to share any bargainous links, ideas and/or discount codes or information. No affiliate links (is that the right word?) And any referral links to the separate thread linked below. This is a warm, friendly, kind and cosy corner of mn filled with Christmas cookies and hot chocolate - let’s keep it that way!

If you have any referral links then please post on this thread <a class="break-all" href="https://_[[//https//www.mumsnet.com/talk/christmas/5212180-bargain-referrals-thread-7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/christmas/5212180-bargain-referrals-thread-7 and share around the joy/referral perks.

It was from a company called lovethelinks on not on the high street. Ordered a couple of days ago when they had free delivery on everything on site and the bracelet was reduced down from £9.95 to £1 😅

Ahhh thanks I didnt see rhat hit. Totally my fault then.

Glad someone else thinks the same! DD is just turned 6 and lives this stuff...

H&M currently have 15% off online for members - there are sone cute small Teddy or rabbit bear furry storage baskets ther I thought could be a good gift for a newborn with say a muslin, wet wipes , baby shampoo or something in or perhaps for a little girl to keep hair bows and bobbles in , there are also furry bunny pencil case in beige or pink

Those looking for recycled cashmere fingerless gloves could search for Tazzies gloves on ebay. I bought loads from her last year as someone tipped me off on these threads. A lot cheaper than turtle doves and some interesting combinations. Also you get the actual pair of gloves in the photo not just something from the blue selection etc. Quality is excellent and you are buying from a small UK business (like Turtle Doves used to be). https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/376038589662?itmmeta=01K4SRC31G6DVN33RPWF0J1T6H&hash=item578da584de:g:t~gAAOSwi2xnxble&pfm=1

Thanks for this - I added 2 different pairs to my basket from the same seller but was quoted £3.75 postage for each pair, so £7.50 postage in total, which put me off. I have asked the seller to clarify postage costs. Do you know if the seller posts items out individually or refunds postage if they are posted in one package?

@Londonmummy66 thanks for the recommendation. I bought Turtle Doves a few years ago & I wear them so much over the colder months. I was looking at buying another pair last year but just the images on the website made the products looks far inferior to what I already had, so I didn't buy any.
I'll be purchasing from the person you recommended as the gloves look very soft & well made.

I bought two pairs last year and paid postage twice and then I think the seller refunded one set of postage and it came in one parcel

Yes she will if you message her - did so for me last year. She's really helpful.

Passenger has some lovely stuff in the outlet section of the site

and an extra 10% off with ESCAPE10

There is a separate referal code board, saves this being filled up with referal links 😀
Back to the bargains!!!

So far I'm failing miserably to keep up with these threads as usual lol.

Wanted to share a few bits I picked up today though....

Sanctuary Spa Sleep Balm for £2.79 from Home Bargains.

Mens Marvel boxer shorts £3.50 also Home Bargains.

Harry Potter Haribo sweets £1.25 from Aldi.

I absolutely love the sanctuary spa Sleep Balm, it's such a lovely smell and would make a fab stocking filler.

I know a few people have asked about Lego, Sainsbury’s had a few boxes discounted. The best discount was £16 down from £20 so not massive savings

Got my Lego stitch today, thanks to the poster who spotted it! There were still loads in my Asda when I went to collect today. Absolutely brilliant bargain, half price. Now looking for the original Stitch Lego too- currently £39.99 on Amazon.

Picture!

Oh no! I've just ordered one! 🙄

I’ve just ordered a copy of an old geological map of England from the unique maps company. Currently 20% off and free delivery.
Thought it would make an unusual gift for one of my sisters.

I've just received the Lor coffee machine. Thank you so much to the ppl who posted the offer. For £63.12 (random amount) I got the machine, with 100 capsules, a pack of 10 other capsules I wanted to try (bought because if I spent £2 more I got a free gift, which was then another pack of capsules.
When I opened it there was a tasting pack of 9 more capsules! So very happy with that.

Middle of Lidl next week is gym stuff - dumbbells, yoga hall etc

I ordered 2023 and had one door that the contents had been opened, I did email them but they couldn't offer any help. It didn't put me off and I ordered 2024, infact I made 3 seperate orders. This was a problem because it confused them and they believed I only had 1 order. I showed them my Degusta account which had 3 orders, I also showed my order email confirmations, and bank transactions. They eventually sent the 2nd order but failed to send the third, and wouldn't respond. I had no choice but to notify my bank

It's also worth looking out for the Adrienne Barman books, Creaturepedia and Plantopedia. Plantopedia is 6.99 on Amazon at the moment. I think they are lovely and are some of the few books I plan to keep on my bookshelf in case a next generation arrives.

Christmas tea towels in my local B&M looked towelling from a distance but more microfibre up close. Apologies I can’t remember who was looking.

Doesnt bode well, what a palaver. Glad I paid on my credit card now

Do you know Rex London? Their sale is always good for stocking fillers and presents for younger DC.
