Hello folks and welcome to the ongoing Christmas Bargain threads, which are hosted annually by the Amazing Reastie. I'm just caretaking for now.

This post is a work in progress, and if you have any links you’d like to share or would be good to add, then please do let me know. The general consensus for the thread is to share any bargainous links, ideas, and/or discount codes or information. No affiliate links, please.

Please post any referral links to the separate thread linked below. This is a warm, friendly, kind and cosy corner of MN filled with Christmas cookies and hot chocolate - let’s keep it that way!

Fake reviews are a bit of a concern

A concern for 99p though? That Amazon will return with no issue

My daughter has asked for a working sparkly microphone that she seen on Etsy but the cheapest I can find with postage is £70 🤦‍♀️ has anyone seen anything like this anywhere cheaper? I really don’t want to spent that much on a microphone

I just bought a pink one in to max for 16.99

Burnnoticed · 25/11/2025 13:21

I ordered some stuff from the Glasgow Soap company (which another poster suggested) arrived today and looks good so thanks

Burnnoticed · 25/11/2025 13:22

If anyone has seen wireless Xbox controllers for less than £50 I'd be very grateful

I had same problem and someone on here suggested opening a very credit account for 20% off first purchase. I think I got them between £33 and £40 ( I needed three different colours). I also bought a bunch more stuff (like Lego) to use discount and paid the balance off as soon as it showed on account (otherwise interest is a horrific 45%!).

two Levi’s orders delivered (used parents details) and further order of socks dispatched today. £90 black carpenter jeans delivered for £59.60!

mumofpickles · 25/11/2025 14:06

Fahlo bracelets now £9 each with code SHOPPERS15

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 25/11/2025 14:06

opened another Levi's account but I've not yet had my birthday points added, keep refreshing. Any one know how long it might take?

IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile · 25/11/2025 14:07

@burnnoticed They are currently £39.99 on Amazon.

Cuwins · 25/11/2025 14:24

My Tesco had family sized packs of crispy m&m’s for £1.45 in the reduced section- worth a check if your there

I put my birthday for the day after in case it needed a full 24 hours. It was just there when I logged on

Donsyb · 25/11/2025 15:17

My Levi order is due to be delivered tomorrow, ordered yesterday

We'll see if these get delivered after the jumper debacle in earlier threads but I thought it was worth a punt at £0.99 for two!! (also can't bring myself to spend more than that on the most irritating trend ever that is "67") but I know my tweens will love these if they do turn up.

Thanks! Now showing as £2.99 for 3 so I've tried ordering for youngest DS, niece and nephew. I hope they come just to see the look on my brother's face when I send them home to him wearing them.

The Fahlo bracelets, do they only track for a year or for as long as the animal lives?

hby9628 · 25/11/2025 15:29

@ILoveCatsAndKittensthey will replace if the tracker is lost within 6 months. We’ve had them before & my girls loved them. I think I’ll get them new ones at that price. They are fun.

Ewock · 25/11/2025 15:32

My levi order came today. I only order 1 pack of socks at around 12ish yesterday.

Anyone having trouble with the AnthroPerks code: apply the code to one full priced item and be logged into the account. If that doesn't work, contact their Customer service department and they will sort it for you.

Thank you - I assumed it isn’t working because everything is discounted for Black Friday. Were you able to get the BF discount AND pay with your £20 code? Thanks

Wellwhoknewthat · 25/11/2025 15:38

@Burnnoticed £40 in argos and curry's for pain back/white

I think it says somewhere on the website that they guarantee for 6 months (so if it stops tracking before that, they will assign you another to follow.

As an aside, when I went on to order, the bracelets were showing as £9 without any code. I had a SAVE20 code on email which also added so might be worth trying it as well (I also managed to spend more than the free delivery amount so got free delivery too )

ihavespoken · 25/11/2025 11:21

Log in to the Levi's website then hover over the little "my account" person and you can check in "My Levi's Red Tab Benefits". It shows you your coins balance and mine had 1000 coins added for my birthday. This then comes through on checkout as £10 to be redeemed against your order. Free shipping for Red Tab members too. Hope you have one!

Aw thanks I have checked but nothing, maybe they’ll add it tomorrow as my birthday is then? X

mumonthehill · 25/11/2025 15:56

Hotel chocolat box arrived and really pleased, it will be lovely to bring out on Christmas day!

WheresTheCoffee · 25/11/2025 15:58

There's 20% off the 256gb Steam deck on Valve until Dec 1st, that's the best discount I think I've seen for that 😃

This worked thank you! I only wanted 1 bracelet so it made the shipping cost less of a sting. Dd had a turtle one last year and loved it but the bracelet broke so she will be thrilled to get a shark in her stocking this year 🙏🏻

zacsGranny · 25/11/2025 16:04

My Pooch & Mutt order has arrived - thanks again @hugsandpugs
