Hope you're all well. I've just put in a big Temu order for stocking bits and bits for work. They gave me £8 off my next order yesterday as two orders I had are arriving late and, when I contacted customer services about something, they also gave me a 20% off voucher, so I saved £20 on my order!

Thanks for this!!
Just bought for the present cupboard........although I'd told myself I dont need anything else for the present cupboard as I have just sorted through and charity shopped a load that havent been gifted! 🙈

Ah looks like the lego book is back up to £12 something!

ignore me, you need to click on other options/sellers!

sorry me again (Lego book), looks like it has sold out now at the bargain price

I've just seen this capybara advent calendar on Amazon for £6.40 with a voucher which is a tick box under the price. I don't know anything about it but I know a few kids who would love it.

There’s a lovely looking led advent calendar on tkmaxx new in today section

also a Lego mirabel photo frame and jewellery box £14.99 on tkmaxx too

Anyone know of somewhere that does customisable 'lego' baubles that are a reasonable price?

Quidco are offering £10 cashback on £45 spend with certain fashion retailers, inc H&M who have the 15% off for members today

I rate the Accessorize ones. Nice classic leather glove and the touchscreen fingers really work.

One of the Lego build and stick books reduced to £8.50!

40% off at my Claire’s. Not on branded / character stuff though.

Is a genuine Apple one worth it over a cheaper version and could anyone help with bargains??

Celtic & co currently has 15% off until 2nd November with code OCTVIP15

My darker ones not as good as my lighter one as well. But still good for the money

For anybody that shops at Sainsbury’s, make sure you download the nectar app. They have personalised offers every week and at the moment they have a countdown to Christmas points challenge and a Taste the Difference challenge too. I got back almost £10 in nectar points when I did my big shop there!

Yes, I've had £16 of points back across 3 shops of varying values! It's dead easy to get to target on the Count Up to Christmas. DH and I are both on challenge 4 already.

For everyone who has had their glasses cloth…… how does the photo compare to the cloth in size? Do I need to submit a square photo? I have a longish photo of people sitting at a table, if I submit that would they crop the people on the end for it to fit or would I get a blank border top and botttom of the cloth?

Another Lego book with bricks included on offer (sorry link isn’t working but photo attached for the one I’m referring to)

They crop it to a square

Oliver Bonas have some nice ones. I have a metal one from there which is not the current version but looks like it may be made by the same people, and its good to use, no leaks, although the shape of the spout means you have to lift it high to get the last of the water out

Great idea, thank you @ITSSSSCHRISTMASSS I will take a look!

INIU Power Bank listed at £13.99

Reduces even further when you check out, mine went down to £7.13 when I checked out.

I think something similar may have been on a thread last year, not sure if it was cheaper than what I've just paid. But original price is £18.99 and reviews aren't too bad (I did only glance at them).

Just a word of caution with Nectar. Double check the number in your account as mine was changed and all my points have been used. I reported it and they said they have been inundated with these reports. So annoying 😡

We have the ikea watering can linked to earlier, it’s great

This happened to me too, however Sainsbury’s refunded all the points onto a new nectar account for me. Very handy feature on the app is that you can ‘lock’ spending so no one can use the points without your permission.

I have my spending locked. Is this a different fraud from the points being spent? Are they giving you the points back?

ETA: I literally only unlock for the 30 seconds or so it takes to spend points online.
