Thread 12 - The one where it's All Pants (and socks)

Levi's pants and socks, that is. It's also exactly a month until Christmas!

Also, I have to thank @FortnumsWeddingBreakfastTeaPlease for this quote, as it really tickled me: "Well it's not going to be the one where we found the fucking flamingo.
Honestly I'm starting to despise the stupid, elusive, constipated thing." Sadly, it was too long to make the thread title.

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 you think 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!

As we move towards actual Black Friday (does that even exist any more?) the threads tend to move very quickly. It can be helpful to post your bargain in bold. This can be done by adding an asterxix either side of a word with no gap in between. So Levi's would be Levi's

just saying, this thread still has another 40 posts until it's full.

The issue is that it's often really difficult to predict how quickly the thread will fill up, especially overnight for example, and also of course depends on the schedule/plans of the people who set up the threads (mostly Reastie, but recently RainbowZebra has helped).

It's obviously important to get the link to the next thread in the current thread before it completely fills up, so it's always a balancing act.

It's also not helped by the fact that everyone flies off to the new thread (obviously because they don't want their queries /suggestions to be lost in the last page of an old thread).

There, I added a new post that wasn't a song lyric.

ApiratesaysYarrr · 30/11/2025 07:16

Just 2 more posts to go according to my screen.

And that finishes it.
