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.

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!

Thankyou to the poster on the previous thread for flagging up the Trilogy Dewy Skin gift set at Holland & Barrett. Picked mine up today, its a decent set and in a lovely sturdy reusable box too. Still on offer reduced to £24.74 (from £32.99) and code SAVE brings it down to £21. First one was for a gift but I've just ordered a second one for me!

Does anyone know how cheap the Barbie dreamhouse can go? It's currently £150 on smyths. Thank you

I just picked one up in fantastic condition for £30 on Facebook Marketplace, would you consider second hand?

I’m going to do the same for my DC - have you got an East Asian supermarket near you? That’s my plan - just have a rummage around one and see what snacks I can find

Yeah I have a few, think im overthinking it, say incase i get say a Japanese food instead of Korean 🤷‍♀️ but someone (sorry thats rude, I cant remember off top of head) on this thread listed a few snacks so il go from there.

Has anyone seen any packs of sheet Christmas wrapping paper like Wilko's used to sell please? I miss Wilko's at the best of times but especially at Christmas.

Card factory usually sell them. Thats where I get them now

HalfasleepChrisintheMorning · 12/10/2025 05:43

Lego Balrog down to £66 on Amazon, think this is the cheapest I have seen it

DandelionPockets · 12/10/2025 06:47

3 for 2 on Nib + Fab.

And their mask kit seems like a good bargain as a pamper gift.

Heated throws - I think I’ve found a good deal at Debenhams!

to get max discount, activate Debenhams cash back in PayPal app for 10% cashback. Then go via TCB to get a further 2.55% cashback - this is the one I’ve just bought, which is also on a half price discount.

I’ve just bought 3 for relatives’ Xmas presents for £96 with nearly £15 in cash back, making them about £27 each.

Adidas have a mid-season promotion up to 40% off - ends Wednesday. Just bought a kids tracksuit for £33 instead of £55.

I’ve found that you can get 2 of the Thomas and Friends My first for £4 on amazon (Nia and Bruno)
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Thomas-Friends-Push-Along-Stacking-HYG34/dp/B0CPTFJLHY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=1HQLH6VIAAILL&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.LkYdkGSe7SEDgUcOpdxogeNk90pEtvwwvDM54PSG8cx2aT_s3D6FuJUZ8EsCdDfcOlc4FIHaPGUMuT2_slDJwv_zoPB6mBaCHetZ5A7XZ4ld8z-2qOOdsMgBFApGzpdNtUUKFIFOvlOy7HzU3PzcbNfK_Di1EkOMzqth3NxPstnvMtNPq2dEpMJzg8RTtz7jE07akQIFBBrWj-6mQsSV1A.eezQM7ajpVeGZZfJ564SCyyXuZuUSUyitHuDyBXjkT4&dib_tag=se&keywords=mt+first+thomas+the+tank&qid=1760253732&sprefix=mt+first+thomas+the+tank%2Ckids%2C64&sr=8-1

And then Argos have Percy and Thomas in the 2 for £15 offer.
https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7830307?clickSR=slp:term:my%20first:9:91:2

If the RRP’s are to be believed, it means you can get 4 of them currently for £23 instead of £40 which I think is pretty good.

I’ve brought Nia and Bruno for a first birthday present and then all 4 for my Nephews Xmas present and they look good. Xx

If anyone is into snowboarding I have found a great Oakley snowboarding hoodie. Originally £175 and in the sale for £45... Loads of colours.

If you look at it on the Oakley website first, they have a handy size chart where you pop in measurements etc to find the right size.

Same. My existing one died this week. I use it while working so would love a deal!

Was it a Dreamland heated throw? They've just replaced mine because it stopped working as they have a 2 yr warranty. I just emailed them, they asked for prove I had bought it (luckily found an old Boots email) and they sent a free postage sticker, returned it and two days later they delivered a new one.

I bought some items from sunshine lane in the super seconds sale, just placed another order with them as they still have lots in their sale! I I got a mug and card for £3 including free shipping using the code in the confirmation attached!

would highly recommend, the owner is lovely!

Ah the free shipping code doesn’t work for me 🙁

PumpkinSpicedTea · 12/10/2025 09:23

On the topic of Barbie Dreamhouse. Can anyone explain the different types as just had a look and can see different styles please? Although I think I'd get one of the smaller ones - was there a fold up one that was cheap in B&M one year?

hugsandpugs · 12/10/2025 09:26

Neja · 12/10/2025 09:15

Try the code PICPOST that’s the code the seller gave me for my original order

Pretty sure it went down to 119 last week on amazon prime deals.

If you go on camel camel camel and paste the amazon link in it will give you a good idea of price drops over the last year.

MrsMAFs · 12/10/2025 09:31

If anyone spots The Ultimate Stitch anywhere for less than £69.99 I'd love a heads up please. DD is desperate for it, she doesn't usually play with this type of toy and isn't a mega stitch fan so buying begrudgingly lol!

Ilovebabykangaroo · 12/10/2025 09:44

Does anyone have a promotion code for adidas please?

OrangutanCheeks · 12/10/2025 09:57

Does anyone know if they’ll be bringing out KPop Demon Hunters dolls out (Barbie-style)? Seems strange that a toy company hasn’t picked this up as they’d surely sell out!
