Thread 7 - the one where I was going through your kink

[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.

Hopefully not a scam as it popped up on my Facebook ads with a spiel about small businesses strife… Spiral are running a promotion where you buy a £50 bag reduced to £35 and can choose any of the cross body bags listed for free with the purchase.

they look good quality; waterproof, laptop sleeve etc

some cheaper on this site

Not sure if it's universal to everyone but I signed up to JD Williams and Simply Be about 2 weeks ago. I just received £20 vouchers off both. Meant I was able to purchase the Unlimited Stitch for £49.99. Cheapest I could find it anywhere prior to that was £69.99 so very pleased.

Oh, that’s not as reassuring as I’d hoped! Let us know how you get on?

These kicker balls went down a storm with DS

Swerve balls

also v popular are these mini shin pads

Shin pads

or grip socks

Socks

next also has a warm cuddly football (like a hot water bottle thing ) which is very cute lol

I’d buy an actual football if possible. A 15 year old would play with a Size 5 https://www.sportsdirect.com/mitre-mitre-impel-club-football-418876#colcode=41887601

then maybe some plastic cone things you dribble round https://www.sportsdirect.com/sondico-space-marker-6-pack-840125#colcode=84012599

maybe shin pads. Someone once brought my son base layer gloves which he liked.

Hi @Reastie , I don’t know if this has been mentioned already but we’re on page 39! Whizzing by now 🎄

@Reastie we still have over 40 posts to go though.

I find, that, as soon as a new thread is created everyone naturally gravitates there because they don't want to miss out on any new offers.

The result being, obviously, an incomplete thread with some MN'ers missing out/slow to notice, whilst others try gallantly to complete the 1000 mark with singing 🎶 lovely Christmas lyrics or other delightful fillers 😊

So just a wee suggestion to wait until we're up to ~990, if that's, at all, doable?

Oh yeah - depends if you wanted the free cross body bag or just the bag I guess :-)

Re the half price heated blanket on amazon in below

im not sure if its account dependent but the 50% is on my account, I just ordered one for £19. It says prime discount? Came off automatically.

thanks guys new thread is here when you're ready .

happy halloween!!

The Amazon heated throw deal wasn’t showing for me yesterday but I’ve just checked again and it’s there now - for anyone else who had the same issue. Thanks OP for the great deal!

Solace Jewellery seem to have started their Black Friday deals. They have initial pendants for £2.10 (they are v small but a nice advent calendar filler) https://solacejewellery.co.uk/collections/bfcm-65

sorry missed the crucial bit there is an extra 20% off with STAR20

Long shot but has anyone seen any discount codes for Nike?
My son has just outgrown his trainers and football boots two weeks before his birthday and Christmas…!!
thank you!

Next has Bath & Body Works on 4 for 2, includes body wash, body lotion, fragrance mists etc

£2 bonus with TopCashback today. Need to opt in and spend £10.

@Daisychain789nike usually do a sale around November time. I’ve done well in it the last couple of years. Might not be much help for his birthday unfortunately.

@Daisychain789 Nike Shox trainers are on sale at ASOS, I think maybe some other Nikes are too.

Order soon if you go for it though, as I ordered some a couple of days ago and have just got an email saying they're busy but my package will be sent out soon.

Not sure what age you're shopping for, but I've found some great bits at https://www.theforgottentoyshop.co.uk/

So true. I ended up with a glass jar half full of wax and no way of burning it

Would those lamps everyone was buying melt it?

I was going to say the same thing. They definitely would. I love mine and I've got it on now. It's actually making my cold conservatory feel welcoming!

Having my own football mad 15 year old, things that always go down well are football socks, shin pads, the grippy socks with sock sleeves (I’ll try to find a link - there’s usually some good bargains on these and they’re really popular on the pitch). Or a football shirt from one of the bargain site ls like fb4u (which I’ve bought from for years, but my last order the quality wasn’t up to scratch, there’s others to try though) but be wary of long delivery times. You can’t buy a Man City fan a Man U shirt, but maybe an England one? Guess it depends where you are and if it’s a local charity. A Welsh teen wouldn’t necessarily want an England shirt!

edit with link: https://gaintheedgeofficial.com/collections/midcalf-length-grip-socks?gclid=Cj0KCQjwvJHIBhCgARIsAEQnWlCls2IGH-XgYhzKclLCvuSqHRr_LHuaX8VSaN_2ksB_gAHMjImalRkaAjOCEALw_wcB. I’ve bought from here before. Perfect quality for the job, always plenty of bogof type offers. My son would be completely over the moon with the white grip socks (has to be white) plus black sock sleeves (has to be black) and a roll of the grip tape.
