Thread 5 - the one where it's OCTOBER already!

[Reastie]

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 https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/christmas/5212180-bargain-referrals-thread-7 and share around the joy/referral perks.

Yeah I do it whenever it is an option as it is very easy to skip a delivery or just cancel completely. Saves a few pennies!

No, but if you buy 1 month membership, thay discount stacked last year on top of the 20% off, and you got the card credit too. That's how I did it for 2 mini yotos.

I’m looking to buy an iPad - currently £284 on Amazon prime - that’s 14% off
just wondering if people think it would be the same price or less on Black Friday?

Is anyone else having problems checking out on haul?

@juicyjellybabywhere do you find the mp3/mp4 content for your DS cards? My DS is only 4 and I want to ensure his stories are still relevant to him as he's getting drawn into the tv more with age but I struggle to find anything.

No problem, I only realised recently that they do the 10% so trying to spread the bargainous word!

I had a nightmare earlier on today and got a text saying my order would be cancelled if I didn't try again. Took ages to process, but went through eventually. I then checked my other orders and noticed that a previous order had been cancelled. I wondered if it was because of the 50 x iron on patches that originally went through at 6p which seemed a ridiculous bargain and probably mispriced / over ordered.

I’ve checked out 2 quite big haul orders today one this morning and one this evening both went through without issues and showing ok on the app with delivery date

I’m very glad everyone is liking the glasses cloths! I actually emailed the company owner the other day to apologise in case the additional demand had created any issues for them (small company) and the man was lovely and very appreciative of the boost for his small regional business. Nice to shop small and spread the word about economic impact of our shopping!

That’s lovely to know!! It’s so good when you hear our mass buying is helping someone and not swamping them!!

FYI I popped in Sainsbury’s tonight and they have 20% of clothing

Hey has anyone got any good stationery gift ideas for 8/9 year old girl

Evening all
Looking for some recommendations please, on a few presents on my hit list;

• Nice bubble baths - but not sets than include body wash/scrubs or butters
• Alarm clocks for toddler/ 4 year olds...something with a nightlight and ideally something that tells them when it's still bed time (not yoto as we have the minis already) *Ant recommendations for a 13 year old boy around the £20 mark.

Many thanks,
And thanks for all the ideas so far...I haven't quietly shopping in the background!

Hi everyone hopefully helpful to someone, was ordering birthday cards from card factory online and they have 3 for £5 on all personalised cards. Seems to include Christmas ones. Also 8 for £8 on their normal ones. Postage is cheap too or they offer click and collect now.

@GeorgiePorge cant beat a Groclock! Just checked, £23 on Amazon.

Dc2 wants a cast iron juicer (apparently tiktok says they're great). Would be mainly used for lemons as dc makes lemon curd regularly. Can anybody recommend a cheap one please?

@hugsandpugs where is the perfume offer please?

I’m pretty certain I saw a 10% off code at dunelm but I just can’t see it anywhere now. Does anyone know what it was please? Thank you

Pharmacy2u

I have ordered off them before x

Just a reminder that the wooden toys will be available in Lidl and Aldi tomorrow. I’ve got a long list of things I’d like to get. 🤞🏻I get some of it!

In Lidl it seems you get up to an extra 20% off with a Lidl plus card too

i have ordered quite a few as little Christmas table gifts. Thanks for posting.

Good advice. I only use miles hot chocolate powder (it’s fucking immense!) in ours so wouldn’t know on flakes!
