Christmas bargain thread one - the one where it officially starts!

[Reastie]

Thanks so much to @Sideorderofchips for keeping things going. I can barely believe it's September and (for me at least!) that only means one thing - Christmas can start!!!!

Hope you've all had a great year and have missed you all. Last couple of years I've had various health things going on so have been a bit distant from the threads. Not quite there yet but feeling stronger than this time last year and I can't wait until I see more festive items in the shops! I've already bought my advent calendar - I've got the taskmaster one (which I'm quite excited about!).

I'll post various links etc in the next thread first post but essentailly you guys know the drill - share and be nice or leave.

<waves to everyone>

Maybe not Christmas for the egg but bargain lego in Asda!

Thank you so much for posting! Just ordered 2 for family members who love cooking 😊

Massive thank you to whoever shared the Yorkshire trading science kits, the box is massive! I’ve got three presents for cousins sorted!

Yorkshire Trading also has bargain Tisserand gift sets https://www.yorkshiretrading.com/products?q=tisserand&order=relevance
On the Tisserand website these sell for £18 each so a substantial discount

The lip oil is coming up as £38 including delivery and another £10 for engraving. Is that right @Restlessinthenorth, or do they have offers?

Weighted blanket arrived! What a bargain, looks brand new all wrapped - but ironically its heavier than I anticipated haha!

@Realfastfoodie - unless you need the lip oils/balms now I would be tempted to wait closer to BF/Xmas to see if Dior offer free engraving then.

I was quite shocked to see they have started charging £10 per item!

If you are not bothered about the engraving, Boots are selling the Dior lip oils for £27.20 with code: BEAUTY20

Thank you! £48 for a lip oil is way out of my budget, sadly, but I will be very grateful if people spot any offers. Thanks for the boots offer… I might just wait for the engraving like you suggest!

My goodness I have never paid anything like that price! I'm sure about £25 each and engraving and beautiful packaging free! Hopefully this will come down closer to Xmas

Thank you. It does sound silly asking about gift cards as I know you can find them in many places, I just haven't seen a Minecraft one in a shop and they are all digital downloads but that is a good idea.

Seems a good deal on this Minecraft Lego set on Amazon
£32.99 instead of £54.99 - also £32.99 in Currys

Thanks! Fingers crossed 🤞 as it’s such a gorgeous gift and perfect for the person I’m thinking of!

Agree with this. I bought some Christmas ornaments 2 years ago reduced after Christmas, for £30. When I looked online Cancer Research had been selling them online before Christmas for £18!

Ive tried and no luck code wise. And unfortunately it is really good too. I got it last year and im hoping to get it again tomorrow. If you sign up to their reward scheme you do get around £20 worth of points back on it.

@nicky2512 - someone on another thread said that she ordered the Sephora a/c via Quidco and cashback seems to have tracked.

What about a neon sign similar to the one below?
Also a candle warmer so she can use lovely candles and melts without needing to light anything?

There's lots of autumnal bits and pieces in the shops now - some of it is obviously Halloweeny in content but lots besides that is around. I was in the Range today and had a browse around B&M today for a couple of suggestions.

Thanks to those who responded about the Sephora advent calendar. I want it even more now. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I have just discovered delivery is mainland only so I would need to get to the shop and I don’t know when that will be.
we will see!

do you any student with Unidays or Studentbeans? there is 15% off Sephora discount code, don't know if it works with advent calendar though

Also 16% off with BLC or 20% off for new customers for a limited time.

Oops code is 548V8F5JE2

I got ours in Morrisons. It was a few years ago though.

Orchard toys shopping list game seems a decent price

I saw these in my local HB in May, I was so tempted to buy one. After seeing this you’ve persuaded me, I’ve just ordered my dd one x

Minnie mouse dress up set. £14.99 in home bargains. Still £29.99 on Smyth's and Amazon.
