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!

My Celtic and co gloves arrived this morning and are lovely, thanks to the person who put up the £20 off code x

Glad you like them. I am always a bit wary of posting things in case they don't work out for people but I know my sister could not wait for the cold weather so she could wear them again for the next few months.

@Talisin I had already trawled TK Maxx and Brand Alley to no avail but will keep checking :) thanks

Beautifulsunflowers · 21/11/2025 22:14

Does anyone know how to get free postage on vans? It’s £5 which seems steep to me!

Jellycat reindeer now out of stock on anthropology. Any other none discounted items assist from the jellycats?

Can anyone remember how low the candle warmer lamps went for Prime day?

There’s one on Amazon Haul for £17.59 and it’s £10 off £20 today, I got it last week using the codes that were around.

I’ve had mine on all day since they arrived they are so soft ❤️

I’ve bought a PS5 disc with FC26 for £379.99 today from Argos. £100 saving. Also should get 3% cashback with Top Cashback.

Has anyone tried one of these Mystery Guides? It popped up on my Facebook feed and looks good, but is it? They’re £20.
I am desperately scrabbling in the dark to buy something for my son & daughter-in-law and am wondering about one of these!

I've done a few and they're great fun. They make fab gifts.

Puffalicious · 21/11/2025 22:55

If I had my Christmas tree up I'd be dancing around it naked singing 'Jingle all the ruddy way!'. I've managed to order the Fortnite Disc PS5 for £303 on Very!!!

I didn't actually have an account (that was JD Williams for some other purchase a few years back), so got 20% off the reduced price of £379.99 (was £100 dearer originally) by opening a Very account. I can't actually believe they're giving the 20% on most things. I would never have thought of doing it this way without this thread, so a massive thank you.

I ordered 3 games with 20% off too, & since I was there with 20% off most things, got:

Russell & Hobbs Airfryer £71
Marc Jacobs Dot Perfume 100ml £31
Gazelles £47
North Face sweatshirt £32
Adidas Sweatshirt £27
Adidas Tshirts X 3 £15ish each
Adidas 5 colour pack socks £13
Adidas Training zipper £20
4X PJs matching £53
Crocs slippers £22
Crocs £26

They have excellent Black Friday deals. I've never thought BF was up to much, really, but I've been SO proved wrong this year with Very.

I'm shopped out for tonight! 🙃

ArthurChristmas22 · 21/11/2025 22:56

@Madboys2 thank you so much. Tried so many times!

Thanks @RainbowZebraWarrior ! I am loving these threads so much - relative newcomer to them and I tend to look during the day and not during weekend. I need to employ a thread butler to track those busy periods for me ;)

Thanks to Camel I got a Kindle yesterday from Amazon. Not a Xmas present but for my mum who has just been diagnosed with cancer. It's a bit niche I know but with her about to undergo weeks and weeks of chemo, if anyone has any suggestions for Xmas presents that might give be appropriate let me know.

Meanwhile I have given up hope that there will be any discounts on Switch 2 so browsing TopCashBack in the hope I can get it somewhere which will offer a bit back.

Lastly, by way of only offering so far today, lots of Rolife book books are reduced on Amazon. Not a huge reduction but this is a lovely kit for teens

www.amazon.co.uk/Rolife-Miniature-Chocolate-330-Piece-Building/dp/B0F6BWFN25/ref=sr_1_9

When my friend was having chemo she appreciated hand cream as her skin was so dry from the treatment and the hospital environment but also some nail polish to do her nails. Having lost her hair she said it made her feel she was still feminine. The woman she still is.

Ughy · 21/11/2025 23:17

fishfingersandchipsagain · 21/11/2025 20:39

This was a great deal when you posted it @Ughy but now reduced even further!

£8.85 for 24 tins

i don’t know how you managed a bigger S&S discount- not available to me sadly… but feel free to make your own adventure calendar and we can compare 😂

Puffalicious · 21/11/2025 23:33

After the huge success of Snackverse last year (thanks 2024 thread) I'm looking for a similar monthly delivery service of foodie type things that changes every month- perhaps the theme or country or something.

Does anything like this exist?

Donsyb · 21/11/2025 23:36

Does anyone have any suggestions for cheap rugby and football team scarves please?

hugsandpugs · 21/11/2025 23:42

Just managed to get some absolute bargains for me on Lucy & Yak all items were in a sale apart from the socks!

Then had a further 25% off so had the fleece, bag, jeans and socks for £58 something including shipping cost.

Would have been close to the £180 mark at full price! 🥰❤️

£15 cashback on a £70 spend at Nike via Quidco - opt in - limited availability.

£5 cashback on a £25 spend at Boots also via Quidco - again, limited availability. Very annoying for me because I literally just did a £25 Boots order - Grrh!

slipperypenguin · 22/11/2025 00:36

Any walking pad or silk pillow recommendations?
