It's nearly time! November is tomorrow and Mariah Carey will be officially announcing the start of festivities . Hope you're all well and just wanted to give you all a massive thank you so sharing these wonderful ideas and codes etc. It helps me SO MUCH. I know I don't post much on here (various things going on) but I appreciate this warm place of mn so much.

Are we thinking smyths toys will do their £5 of £50 spend etc any time soon? Did they do that at BF last year? I know it’s on Lego at the moment but I have a basket full of stuff and a lot of smyths exclusive

This Baylis & Harding is down to £6 on Amazon, I know this stuff is pretty generic but makes a good gift for someone at work or a teacher

I just keeping seeing things on here I want for my own wish list 😳

I am wondering if they will do this especially as mine want our generation toys that totals over £250!

Also have Santa requests of 2 toys exclusive to Smyths so I think they will do well from me this year- anything back would be appreciated!

@Lisamoanai know they offer a good returns period so I’ve been in two minds to just buy and return if so but would rather avoid the faff if possible

Temptation Gifts have some if you don't mind it being last year's design. Also it's not on offer unfortunately. I bought from them in the end when I couldn't find anywhere that had this year's in stock.

Bubble tea kits in home and bargain- I know some people have been looking for these.

@CrapBagBananaHammockthanks I’ll possibly go for that.
ive just managed to secure 1 of this years robins for DD2 just need the choc for Dd1 now

Does anyone know if there is a bigger discount than 20% possible on buyagift please?

Does anyone know if there will be a Black Friday discount for Amazon Haul?

not Bargain related at all but a Christmas moan!!
I bought Sainsbury’s gift wrap and didn’t check it had the cutting grids.
knew I should have got Dunelm!!

I got some really decently priced stuff at B&Q last week with grid lines. Snowflake pattern on a 'brown paper' background. I think it was something like £1.50

@Gettingthereslowly1

I posted this earlier for Buyagift - money off spends of various amounts
Code is XMAS60

hi all, does anyone please have a £10 0ff over 100 for argos? thanks x

Hadn’t thought of there. I will have a look. Thank you

Looking for some retro looking Christmas decorations - has anyone seen any?

Jellycat hot chocolate here - I noticed it this morning when I was buying the marshmallow bag charm. If you sign up to Anthroperks, you get £20 off your first order

I always recommend this seller: Battle Fragrance

Relatively new, and very small, but the candles and wax melts I've bought have been incredible. I could literally smell the gingerbread candle through the closed tine, box and bag when it arrived and it burnt for the estimated time as well. Can't really go wrong for £11.

Asda have got the very 80s styled foil decorations in

I have - Columbia Rd London. There are a few shops with vintage Christmas decorations.

also Choosing Keeping

Dunelm have some nice decs

@MaggieSansonithank but randomly I just spotted one in a local shop so grabbed it! Annoying that I could have saved £20 though!

@Cos1970

Salter have a discount code LASTCHANCE brings the frother down to £22.49

That’s a great buy, thanks. Free delivery too.
