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?)

Any ideas for a darts fan? Budget around £25 where possible!
Anyone looking for experience/ days out gifts then I’d recommend planet offers

I’ve just ordered the Viper laser Toe line marker (o key) from Amazon £16.95 for our darts loving son

LostMyRubySlippers · 20/11/2025 21:53

@watchuswreckthemic rosemart signs who do the glasses cloths do personalised darts with your own photo if you needed a small extra. They are on their eBay shop for under £7, free delivery

its likely someone has replied already, but just incase XMAS25 will get you £20 off a full price item. No minimum spend. I got the insoles last year and the year before for just the price of postage!

Hi, I've just given this a try but it's saying not valid on the insoles.Do you know if there's any other conditions?

I saw this press up board on social media and thought it looked quite good. (Moving the bars works different muscles).
You could get that along with a puzzle or £20 theatre voucher.

Thanks so much, @QuaintGreenFawn- this is perfect!

Chocolateteabag · 20/11/2025 22:26

@ThisAmberLurker - the Celtic & Co offer has a minimum spend of £20 - So you need to get two pairs of insoles, It won’t let you just get one pair

Has anybody brought, got or got experience of the El Camino bracelets?
I keep on looking at them, for me, but they seem a bit niche but they really appeal to me more than something like Pandora.
They absolutely are not a bargain, but I would appreciate any insight anybody has. Xx

I bought this for my Husband a few years back. In my experience they have been worth the money, I got a small discoint by searching and a good thoughtful gift.

Elpheba · 20/11/2025 22:29

I just checked my emails and I bought 96 Christmas labels for £8 plus £3 postage from tinyme in 2020 and last Christmas I thought- oooh I hope there’s an offer as I don’t have enough for next year (I probably have one sheet left). Lo and behold- 96 more labels on their way for just £3 more than I paid in 2020!

Has anyone seen a naice tin of biscuits or chocolates or shortbread, friend appreciates a pretty tin and I appreciate a bargain 🤞🏼

TK Maxx had a MASSIVE tin of Danish Butter cookies in a week or two ago, think it was about £12, but it was really gigantic. And the biscuits were delicious! Only bought because DD needed a big tin for bringing her school cooking home in. Why pay for an empty tin when you can have one that’s full of biscuits?

TheCrow · 20/11/2025 22:54

Kevin the Carrot and friends available in Aldi from Thursday Nov 27th, I know a few people were asking

I'm a bit behind on the thread, so apologies if someone has already posted about this. TopCashBack are giving 30% cashback on orders from MyProtein today. MyProtein have an up to 70% sale on with an additional 10% off with code MORE (which is allowable with TopCashBack). Pretty good if you have gym bunnies to buy for - protein powders, supplements and exercise wear.

I just ordered from Myprotein - it showed 80% off, plus the additional 10%, and you can choose one of six free gifts when you order. I chose the Gruum set, just had to pay postage on that. Thanks @PurpleSkittle!

Yes, thank you! I didn’t order that, but it also linked Ripley’s Believe It Or Not for £8.51 instead of £22.

And I ordered that! AND Guiness World Records AND National Geographic Weird but True. All big hits in our house over the years (the Ripley's is for DS19 🤣- he loves it every year!).

deeplybaffled · 21/11/2025 00:05

A little random, but I think someone recommended a whisky cake a while ago? I think it might be perfect for my grandfather but can’t remember the details. Can anyone recommend one?

Notlongnow1 · 21/11/2025 00:44

The camels just informed me that Interactive Hedwig is now £20.99. A year too late for me, but hopefully useful to someone! Usually sits around £35-39.99.

Also, I bought 8 copies of Donna Ashworth's To the Women this morning as it is just the most gorgeous book and incredible at that price (£6.08). I love dipping into it and know those I am gifting it to will be too ❤️

Nearly there with my shopping now 😃

Thanks for this book! Sounds perfectly lovely and a beautiful gift. Added a couple to my basket for my daughters, and one for me!
