DD1 is desperate for this Barbie dream house pool playset - it’s reduced to £41.25 on Argos currently, has anyone seen any better deals or should I just grab it whilst it has some money off? 🫣🤣

Ooh thanks I did check on there but couldn’t see it any cheaper

watchuswreckthemic · 29/06/2026 21:41

Hello. After an Argos code please if at all possible- spending £350!
Thanks to who posted the burts bees hand creams: mine arrived today

Cuwins · 30/06/2026 22:30

Not on offer but I found a great stocking filler in Tesco for DD4, hanging in one of the toy aisle they had Bluey or bingo bracelet making sets for £2.

WhiskyandWater · 01/07/2026 08:39

Scribbler have some lovely notebooks and planners for 75% off in store.

NotMeekNotObedient · 02/07/2026 12:55

Two things:

Smiggle has a great sale on - got a variety of pens (e.g. 0.80p were £3.50), pencil cases, art kits, scratch art. Got some good stocking fillers and class party gifts for the cupboard.

I'm also after an Argos code please 🤞 . Managed to drop my blender off the counter in my postpartum haze 🤦🏼‍♀️ we've just started weaning and my maternity pay is ending so great timing! It would be much appreciated.

watchuswreckthemic · 02/07/2026 19:30

Hi @NotMeekNotObedienti no longer need one so hopefully one will come up for you! I got a soup maker on Vinted the other day for well cheap so might be worth a look there?

i had a mooch on the John Lewis sale earlier. So many bargains. Lots of board games in the kids toys section. Telestrations down to £12.50. Such a fun game to play as a group. Highly recommend

Argos code £5 off £50 spend N395FFDS76FZ

£10 off £100 spend JJLBBHVWCR3M

Not sure if both can be used or it's either or. Expires end 14th July.

Too Good Too Go has 40x 90g Terry's Chocolate Orange Crunch bars in its delivery options today. BBE end Jan 2027, so good if you have lots of little chriatmas gifts to do for a group etc. Also Cawston Spring cans at a good price dated after Christmas

I thought I'd made a start with some half price squishmallow pyjamas but actually it's a tracksuit https://www.johnlewis.com/brand-threads-kids-cotton-blend-squishmallows-tracksuit-set-pink/p113838023

In the shop it was with the pjs and I even asked the sales assistant what she thought. Oh well!

Have ordered some kids snoopy shortie ones from TU - they better actually be nightwear.

They look fine as PJs to me! Especially for winter.

Thanks. The material is thick which is what made me ask the staff. I might go middling and call them loungewear! She lives in a massive oodie so should be OK.

Hello all, just checking in for Christmas 2026! Actually looking for birthday bargains first - please let me know if anyone sees any discounted Lego sets anywhere. Thank you!

Any particular type of Lego sets? Argos has a few on offer, Amazon usually have some good deals as well

Not really - mine just love a Lego set for birthday and Christmas. Hadn’t thought of Argos, thank you!

No problem, we all love Lego in this house so I try and buy as much of it as I can when I see it reduced

Can I ask a question - how do you manage the ever increasing collection of Lego? I’m already finding it overwhelming and our eldest has only been into it 1.5 years 😱 I must admit we both love Lego too, so we would quite like to be a Lego house! But it’s not possible to keep each set together with busy kids who love to play. Do we just lean in to the unmatched pieces? Or is there a magic system? (Maybe one that could be a present!!)

Any other John Lewis bargains? There’s so much on the website but I’m drawing a blank /can’t spot anything!
