Christmas Bargain Prequel Thread 2 -summer holidays loom

[Sideorderofchips]

Onto our second thread with less than 6 months to go!

Had a email from Fahlo offering me a free shark bracelet. Postage seems extortionate though at £9.95. Is this the best deal to be had for Fahlo?

Thank you to the person who recommended the beauty box at Boots - I just bought the Cosmopolitan one for my 15 year old, it looks brilliant. Still deciding whether to give her the whole thing or to break it up for stocking fillers and use some of the other products for myself/friends. What is everyone else doing?

My little niece went crazy for and adores the “missy kissy doll” it wees, poos, talks, crawls!

Oh wow that sounds brill thank you will have a look at that one 💜

Thanks for the boots cosmo box recommendations and code!
just ordered for DD’s Christmas stocking, this will make up the vast majority of it!
Times are hard this year so I’m looking forward to picking up lots of bargains!

Aldi has some travel version games in such as “Something Fishy”. Great for party/group occasions.

If you have a WWE fan in the house, I spotted that there are 3 WWE figures available.

Aldi also had some cute squishmallows in today: £6.99 each.

I was in Hobbycraft and got my first Christmas present. Lots on sale in there but I got a wooden camp thing for a nephew.

Really niche but if you happen to be in central London and have an M&M fan there were a few decent discounts in the M&M store today. There was a gorgeous kids denim jacket with a rainbow on the back £10 down from £38 but they didn’t have my daughters size unfortunately

If you’re willing to travel portmeirion in Stoke they have all Spode Christmas tree plates £4 and bowls £3, mugs, side plates. They are seconds.

I’ve picked up a few bits in the Rex London sale, some good little stocking filler bits for children!

Received an email this morning about a Grüm bundle 16 items for £30 might be good to split for stocking fillers I’m undecided as to whether to order or not link here

I have just bought Prada Meranti Lip Duo to put away for my v stylish niece.

Normally £80, but 15% off on look Fantastic, plus an extra 5% off with the code EXTRA, and a free mini Prada mini banana lip balm, all for £64.60, which seems pretty bargainous.

Look Fantastic also has this which looks like it would be great to split for a beauty advent calendar - 7 items for £45

I have totally gone down the rabbit hole on the LF sale - this seems incredibly cheap MD Perricone moisturiser

Morning all - for Sparks members, M&S are offering early access to their sale on the app. You can’t see the reduced prices of the items, but judging from the price of the basket I have just checked out, they are practically giving stuff away.

Go to Sparks offers, click on Early Sale Access, then Shop the Offer.

Bargains include:

Chelsea Peers nightwear for men and women, (I know lots of people buy this brand for Xmas presents)

Beauty - including a lot of Kbeauty products - brilliant for DIY advent calendars

The women’s pull on summer trousers - loads of different colour ways/styles are in the sale

Men’s two pack polo shirts

This sounds amazing but I can’t see it in my sparks rewards list 😭

@MamaK19 - have you looked on the app?

I don’t have it either 😢

Postscript books have a small selection of books in their buy 3 get the 4th book free offer. Some children's books for 99p. I buy a lot from Postscript they are good for unusual books for hard to buy for people. Postage free over £25.

Not on the high st have a up to 70% off sale atm with lots of Christmas stuff in there!

It looks like not all Sparks members have the early access to the sale on the app.

I know they did an app update the other day - it might be worth reinstalling the app to see if that works 🤞

The m&s sale preview is so stressful, literally things selling out whilst in the basket. It's really hard to search aswell.
Does anyone know when the sale starts in store? Really wanted some bits from the maclaren/formula1 ranges but they have all sold out online in the sizes needed. We aren't fans so I wouldn't pay full price but dc likes the style of some of the bits and been eyeing them up in store

Thanks for the heads up @IlovePond . I've reinstalled the app but the offer isn't there for me either. Good to know the sale is starting soon though. Maybe early access is available for Sparks plus members or M&S credit card holders only?

Edited for typo

Ah, I hadn’t thought of that @keepincool - I do have an M&S cc, so maybe that’s it 🤷‍♀️
