Thread 14 - the one where I'm still not sure what a cheese spoiler is

[Reastie]

Ahh, I'm sorry, I missed the waterproof bit! (Would a waterproof lining work, or for the bag I linked, using some waterproofing spray?)

Can't remember who was looking but Morrisons had some terrariums in for £15

Terrarium

Pictures hopefully!

Anyone got a discount code for Deans?
I've searched myself and can't find any working ones. Tia

Uniqlo have a really good sale on at the moment. Just picked up a couple of things for my mum when I thought I was all done😚

@hby9628 and @Wowsersbrowsers footlocker have the crocs slippers for £25 and if you sign up for their club it gives free delivery. I then had a code for 10% off as a new customer.

I have a Lakeland 20% off £50 that I don't think I will use if anyone wants it.
DM me. Happy to share it to return the favour from last Christmas when someone else did the same for me

They had Dean's shortbread in Home Bargains this weekend! Nice boxes for £4 and small packets for £1.50

If you sign up for a newsletter you get 10% off your first order I think.
Highly recommend deans. We love their shortbread.

I would love that code to buy some gifts for DH nephew and niece, new homeowners for whomI really don’t have a very large budget left. I’m on my phone and right now I can’t seem to work out how to DM from the app, promise I’m not that slow usually!

Has anyone received their anthropologie order? I placed it on the 30th Nov but not even had a dispatch email yet :( seems very slow and I need to post on.

I have sent it to you

I've just had my order from 3rd December cancelled. They've offered me 10% off to apologise but I don't seem to get my £20 anthroperks voucher back 🙁

I received mine about 3 days after ordering.

They’re often not the fastest at shipping, but that seems really slow. I placed an order on Monday 1st and received it on Friday 5th.

My Anthropologie arrived pretty quickly and I had a dispatch email too.
My Jo and Sephs order has been updated and is arriving tomorrow, bit nothing from Fahlo.

Hi, my daughter has last minute asked Santa for a real looking baby doll! Has anybody got one that does cost the earth? Thank you

Ah thank you, will chase tomorrow will be gutted if they cancel :(

Can I please ask if anyone has a recommendation for a good Christmas coffee (as in like cinammon spiced etc) in terms of grounds? I have bought online before and been disappointed but not likely to get to the shops soon. Thanks.

Can anyone help pls? I was really hoping to get the Spotify 12month voucher for £99 this year. Last year that was available in Currys in Sept but I have been watching the web page since Sept this year and nothing. I know Argos also sell it, but it's full price there too. Does anyone know anywhere else that ever does this offer? Or if it ever comes up on sale the other side of xmas?

Not a recommendation, more of a non recommendation but don’t bother ordering a dressing gown from Online Home Shop if you’re after a nice thick fluffy one. Ordered one for DNan’s birthday and thought it was vacuum-packed and would poof up but it’s just incredibly thin. Now needing to pay £3.50 for the privilege of returning it and then have to sort out a replacement 🤦‍♀️

I've managed to hunt this down for the last few years as DD always asks for Spotify for Xmas, but this year not found it for £99 anywhere sorry.

Edited to add that I found it cheaper on cd keys but it turned out to be the India version and you have to use the version for your own country so watch out for that!

Would she like a mum to be massage? I had a couple in each pregnancy and they were wonderful.
or a nice piece of jewellery?

Does anyone know where the cheapest place is for Stanley tumblers please? Mum who is very awkward to buy for has said she would like one!

Also mum and dad are looking for an electric potato peeler if anyone knows of any bargains for those? Thanks 🙏
