Christmas tunes I reckon will be starting on the radio to.orrow folks. It's only 39 sleeps till Christmas. Let's get those bargains!

House or Fraser has a couple of kpop demon hunters tote bags in the clearance section

thy may have other goods elsewhere on the site. I just spotted them whilst scrolling the handbags outlet section

Did air up bottles get reduced for BF last year on Amazon does anyone know?

Thank you.

Trying to 'catch' one to buy was like the thread sport! 🍫 🎣 🤣

@Flubadubba - have you done the Anthropologie Anthroperks sign up as they have some Damson Madder bags/washbags which might work

or this Verden body wash smells amazing and would be well in budget with £20 off?

if she like getting her nails done, you could look up nice nail salons near her and get a manicure voucher from there?

Thank you so much @Babynumberthreeee@MyWildDuck She has now said that red or pink stripes are ok but def not checks so I’m getting the red striped piglet in bed one from JL. Phew!!
I’m so pleased that this year we’re only getting the adult kids a couple of things and then giving them money - so much easier!

@NoWordForFluffy I spent ages trying to get the bars. But then ended up with four!

someone posted on here that they weren’t suitable for gifting as they had bloom on them so I ended up keeping them all just in case. Nothing wrong with any of them and I put on a ton of weight. Bargains can be dangerous 😂

I’ve ordered these as a fun way of giving money (which will just be a bank transfer). I’ve also got one for DH who’s gift is a weekend away

Thank you for the Anthroperks tip. I got my £20 which enabled DD (12 going on 15) to buy a jellycat for her secret Santa she wouldn’t have afforded!

You absolute and total star!! ⭐ I’ve been on the Anthropologie mailing list for years, and assumed (enviously!) that meant I’d didn’t qualify for the £20 voucher. But no. Completely missed the perks thing all this time. AAAAAND it really is my birthday in a few weeks. Whoop!

Does anyone know if Emma Bridgewater does discounts on Black Friday?
dd and dsil want personalised mugs and they’re so flipping expensive!

Just a note for people re. Anthroperks! I was driving myself mad because the voucher code was entered but no discount applied. Spent forever on their shite WhatsApp customer service chat but eventually got through to a person who told me to make sure I was logged in, as code is linked to specific account. Bam, sorted! Just in case anyone is lurking and having the same problem as me!

@LabubuLover We’ve tried loads of “den kits” over the years for 2 boys. The biggest success was this sort of set, comes in different colours.

With camouflage netting and some string to tie big sticks together to make a teepee. If you want something easy and quick for the summer, this teepee is great and they put it up easily themselves. And lots of warm base layers.😀

@Raindancer411 My Hubble recommended this one, or any by Petzl. He fancies himself as a bit of a Bear Grylls😀

Yes! I’d wait!

And a lot of us received them in slightly bashed boxes and Amazon refunded for free and let us keep the chocolate! 🤤

@munchbunch12 if there’s a little QR code on the box, there are apps that’ll scan it and tell you which is inside.

The one I use for DS Lego F1 cars is Minifig Scan.

To be fair to Smyth's they are very clear about their new restocking fee 🙂 I placed the order for click and collect items on Monday morning and before I checked out it was prominently on the page "we now charge a £2 non collection fee", it was then also in the confirmation email and the email to tell me the order had arrived- so it's a new thing and they are being very clear about it

But not applicable for pre orders like you say, as I also got an email yesterday that my pre orders have arrived (K Pop Funko's) but they only give you 2 days to collect! But with various plans I have in already I don't think I'm going to make it to pick up my stuff either, so im a bit annoyed at the short turnaround!

Waitrose have got a half price Christmas event on atm. Half price Christmas cards, crackers, gifts and candles. I got some lovely 'fill your own' crackers for £4 and some beautiful candles and WonderGlobes (tealight type thing)

Thanks @hugsandpugs and @handmademitlove for the weighted blanket tip. I tried to thank you yesterday but cloud flare had other ideas!

I’ve thrown away my Lakeland catalogue and now need to place an order, does anyone have a spare Lakeland code? My spend will be just over £100. Thanks so much

10% off at Celtic and co with code GLTD10

Just had an email about this one of it's any use to people!

If it helps at all, my boy would love love love a coffee set bath toy, play doh baking, a toy campervan, fleece pjs etc. Maybe you can buy all the things you like just give them to more of the children?

Yes there’s usually discounts
