Posting on behalf of the lovely @Reastie

Thank you to whoever posted about Aberfalls pistachio cream liqueur (two for £20 on Amazon Aber Falls) and Whistlefish cards (18 cards for £10 Whistle Fish).
Sophie Allport Sophie Allport and Liz Earle Liz Earle have both started their Black Friday sales early. Lobster mug, No 15 perfume, shampoo, shower gel and body lotion all winging their way to me.

Thanks for the personalised football offer. There is an extra 5% off if you have a Blue Light Card.

I got some keyrings from AliExpress for my daughter's stocking and they seam decent quality. She likes collecting keyrings and hanging some on her school bag Even though she's a long way off having keys 😂
Even on there though it's difficult to find much.

Yeah I've got some stickers and keyrings from Ali express too; they look great for the price.

MamaClausToTheRescue · 16/11/2025 09:00

@kpfragglesrock thanks for the tip. I’ve tried the other football top sites but will give the Jersey one a go this year. For that price I may as well!

strangetimesbelow · 16/11/2025 09:05

Thanks for the Tesco e gift card deal but does anyone know anywhere that does actual gift cards with a discount at all?

Puffalicious · 16/11/2025 01:40

Right, code is now working, but it's chucking on £4.95 postage. How are you getting that off? Thanks!

I just had to pay it - hate paying shipping 🤣🫣

At the risk of sounding really stupid here- What size football would you order for an almost 9 year old?

User202242 · 15/11/2025 21:29

Someone was looking for Spongebob toys? This is on TKMaxx!

It was me thanks! Didn't know that this was a thing!!

MamaClausToTheRescue · 16/11/2025 09:31

I’ve posted about Tenth Muse solid perfumes before - they are lush! Anyway there’s up to 35% off side wide at the moment and this should stack with a referral link but I haven’t tested it.

lovely perfumes, plastic and chemical free and the refills are very reasonable.

UntamedShrew · 16/11/2025 09:31

Morning all. DD would like some satin pyjamas, long sleeved and long trousers. Ideally a burgundy colour with a lighter trim. Very specific I know!

M&S autograph had some but now out of stock. Where else would you look or has anyone seen any that might fit the bill? Thank you ☺️

What is the football offer please? I’ve gone back 10 pages but can’t find it. Would be most grateful 🙏

Regular size 5 probably best

@puffalicious I was sceptical of jersey fans at first but I’ve used them a few times now. None of mine were personalised and it took exactly 2 weeks to arrive last month.

Brilliant. Thanks. Do you think they look decent/ like the real thing so that teens wouldn't know?

MrsMAFs · 16/11/2025 09:59

Next. Boux avenue. ASOS. New look. Tesco.

Ah. Me too! Might just need to rip off the plaster & also do it🙈. In my sleepy state last night I read your post as INCLUDING postage! This makes more sense now. Sorry!

they look lovely thank you @Talisin - she is adult sized now. Lots seem to have a cropped sleeve like those and I think she’d prefer a full length sleeve, is the only thing.

Justkeepsmilingx · 16/11/2025 10:08

Sorry to a pain - have read all the posts about the football kits on the new ‘jersey’ named site but could someone please link to it ? I have been caught out in the past buying pants versions of things from sites with similar names when I’ve seen a post and not used a link ⚽️ 😩

UntamedShrew · 16/11/2025 10:16

Do next do anything around Good Friday, can anyone remember?

Edited

I debated on it all day but decided that even with the postage it will be worth it if they are nice cosy gloves 🧤 ❤️🤣

There are these. Just never tell her where they’re from!

Also these from Primark which are available for click and collect.
