Anyone know anything about Dunelm discounts? I want to buy a lamp but it’s a large item delivery for £10 so any discount would be very useful

I was making a small order the other day & tried signing up to mailing list & also adding my birthday details which I’d read would generate a 10% discount but nothing came through so I ended up just ordering without any discount- the horror!!!

Does anyone remember if george asda did black friday last year? Im aftet matching kids pjs so not sure whether to risk it....

can recall in the past them doing 20 or 25% off everything, but not certain if this was last year. It was def around Black Friday time one year though

Anyone get a delay when trying to get the £5off Argos code via the app? I subscribed via email and nada. Holding off to get that magnatiles set.

This is a great local jewellery business: https://www.lucyandjane.co.uk/

They are currently offering a free pair of earrings with any purchase, and this also stacks with their ongoing offer of £5 off when you buy three pairs of earrings.

Their items always come quickly and beautifully packaged.

The scent reserve are doing 4x100ml fragrances for £29.91 and if you sign up to their newsletter they send you a code for a free 30ml fragrance.

Recommended by a friend - I can't vouch for them but just placed my first order!

I’ve seen an advert - download the Argos app and I think you get £5 off a £50/60 spend. X

Thanks! Managed to get another £5 off, so £55 from £90

I want to get my baby nephew a collection of those 'that's not my...' books. They seem to be around £4 per item, or £16 for a collection of 4.

Has anyone any ideas where i could buy a bigger collection? Or somewhere they're cheaper individually?

I'm also looking for ideas for book storage to go with it. Like a nice looking, child friendly storage box or stand for books. Any creative suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

World of books? They have 4 for 3 on and start from about £3.50 each, free delivery usually. Or there's a load of bundles on Vinted.
My kids had the Rory mini bookcase from dunelm, not too heavy to move around with the handle on top.

Free Gruum home fragrance set for postage

Thank you for this, just ordered. 😀

@Mandarina33Clarins do do Black Friday offers. I think it tends to be 25% plus various extra free samples. MIL always has Clarins products as part of her Xmas present and I tend to get it at Black Friday.

Thanks a lot! Fingers crossed, I'll wait until black friday and hopefully get it slightly cheaper then

@hby9628 I bought a jellycat from jojomamanbe yesterday and they had the hot chocolate

HouseWithASeaView · 06/11/2025 22:19

@jocktamsonsbairni’m not sure if Starface themselves do a Black Friday deal but I certainly got them reduced last year, possibly through Amazon on Black Friday

FurForksSake · 06/11/2025 22:23

@Famousthehero and another order here, thank you!

TheSmallAssassin · 06/11/2025 22:52

Wrong thread!

@jocktamsonsbairn , Boots have had some offers on those star spot patches. Not sure if they have the edition you're after, though.

TheGirlWhoLived · 06/11/2025 23:13

Thanks @FurForksSake ordered the gruum! @jocktamsonsbairn i missed your original post and now can’t find it but starface did a great Black Friday last year (albeit before Black Friday) and there was 40% off one of their bigger bundles.
im concerned those new pink and white are going to sell out though, I want them for the older kids stocking

I’ve just had a message about an extra 20% off sale stuff at Brand Alley with the code EXTRA20. I have found anything yet to buy myself but there are some nice pjs and slippers here at around 50% already off, so another 20% definitely seems like a bargain if they have what you need.

https://www.brandalley.co.uk/men/sales/pyjamas-slippers-for-him.html

Every time I've ordered from Brand Alley has had a problem. Last time I ordered 2 metalChristmas trees to go in the window, one was seriously bent and god knows where the secons one is. However, their customer service is excellent

@Dolphintrainer ooh you’re lucky! M&S have screwed me over again. I only have 50p off mince pies and £1 off chutney, spices and biscuits for cheese. I don’t even eat any of those things 🤨
It’s like the Gary Barlow fiasco all over again lol.

I hear the echoes of Gary whenever I check my sparks options too 😩

It was Notino for perfume, aftershave etc. 20% off with ‘fragrance’ and an extra 3% if you download the app .
