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

Thank you to the poster who suggested Pintail candles mystery boxes. I have just received my £20 box which contained two petite paint pots, a classic and a grand triple wick! So over £40 in value. Fabulous! Next year I will buy more and split for presents but this year they are to indulge my candle loving husband. Thank you again.

FROST takes 20% off.

Anyone got their snoods from the not really here shop yet? Any evidence of posting?

Sorry if already mentioned but today on Hotel Chocolat there is £5 off their velvetised creams but the following codes also work making them just over £13 a bottle.

CHECKOUT10-HCA gives 10% off

WEL-AW3K3W7SZW gives 15% off

CREAM gives £5 off each bottle

I bought one from home bargains a couple of years ago and it broke quickly. I recently bought one from amazon haul and it seems to holding up well.

Does anyone know how I can get a good deal on Purdy and Fig, Have a friend whos desperate for it

10% off NET842U3IPV

Sorry I was a bit late to the code party with a not very good one!!

I've seen many mentions of Laneige lip masks on here

Three for £20 on pharmacy2u, possibly an additional 10% off if that code works with the 3 for 2 (HAIRSKIN10)

Nope,nothing yet.

Free delivery on some Christmas things at cutter and squidge, today only

Wondering if anyone has a student beans account? I’m looking for a code for XROCKER as trying to order a new bed for my son for the new house we are moving into. I’ve only got grad beans so can’t access the code. Would be so appreciative if anyone can help 🙏🥰

For any Back to the Future fans, or anyone after a cooperative family boardgame, BargainMax has the Back to the Future -Dice through time for £2.99 on clearance.

They also have the Strange Planet card game for £1.99 which is a great stocking filler for teens (or geeky adults!)

That's a great deal even though I couldn't get the 10% to come off. There's 3.85% cashback with topcashback which they say will work with a discount code.

Hi @hugsandpugsdo you still need a code?

I literally just ordered it as I was worried it would go out of stock 😢

Just a reminder to check Gumtree for local bargains, there are plenty of both new and secondhand items on there.

People forget to check it since Marketplace became a thing but I prefer it.

In my experience, usually between 1:30am and 3am. Never before 1am when I’ve been looking.

It can finish soon after midnight, though.

I was really miffed with the Boots £10 Tuesday today. Sadly I was still awake at 2.30am as was getting messages from younger DS on holiday abroad. I put some £10 bargains in my basket but as soon as they hit checkout they reverted to full price. I tried both web and app before giving up.

Of course, when I tried again at 7am the item I really wanted - the Prai neck cream - was OOS. The other items that I wasn’t bothered about had meanwhile corrected to £10 in my basket, but I had lost interest by that point!

I want to get my mum a changing robe thing for the beach, but can’t stretch to DryRobe prices! Anyone got any of the alternative brands that they would recommend please? Extra points for bargains/discounts!

Sockshop have got 15% off with Gift15, and BOGOFF on some gifts some of which are just socks. Also £7 off the sock crackers which I've finally caved on as DH doesn't mind wearing christmas socks all year round.

Is there an x rocker code? I can't find anything on blue light or carers site. I'm not sure they do discounts. I'm also looking for a discount code

Thank you so much for all the Mountain Warehouse codes. Jacket ordered and already available for collection!

ive been RL shopping today and lots of decorations discounted in Asda; discounts in H&M on Christmas jumpers and other things and lots of £2 hats in Primark. Sorry I can’t contribute more!

Aldi had some quiz books for £2.99
I got Who wants to be a millionaire and Popmaster for my Db
They also had Only connect
Richard Osmans house of games and A question of sport

Lots of decorations and Christmas stuff discounted in our local garden centre so might be worth a look
