You are all wonderful and I’m now going back to my mince pie and stollen (never too early!).

Bah! Groupon won’t let me use EAT25 so the lowest I can get the Degusta calendar is £29.50 with SAVENOW

becaise you got it cheaper - I feel like I have failed if I can’t at least match your prices!!’

Great thread.
I have made a good start on my present list.
Although, does anyone else find that when you buy things early you can end up spending more (even if you find bargains) because then you see more good stuff close to the time? Or perhaps others are more disciplined.

12 days of Christmas advent calendar contains lip balms, bath bombs, hand creams etc! £4.99

loads of other bargains on there too including lots of peckniffs products which are quite spenny!

Sorry Chocolateteabag :( I guess the codes are account specific, it showed in my app. I double checked and that was definitely the code I used.

Can you try using someone else’s email/account?

EAT25 didn’t work for me on Groupon for the Degusta advent calendar but my app gave me the code G0B4CK which worked, £8.50 off so £26.49 total if you want to try that.

Screenshot of how it appears in my app. I loved the calendar last year, few misses but really enjoyed it overall.

Yes! I have found this! Buying in advance gives more time for doubt to set in, I think. Is it enough? Or I could get this as well, because that money was spent so long ago it feels like it doesn’t count etc.

Salt rock has a decent sale on some things! Just bought a tarot moon mug for £3.20 including p&p!

FREESHIPCART gives free p&p with no minimum spend threshold.

Thankyou but it's not either of those. That might help someone else out, though.

I take it you've signed up to their mailing list previously? That gives 10% off your first order.

I tried it by going in via an incognito tab and the box came up showing me that option. I'd have had to use DH's email address because I'm already registered with them, but it'd be worth it to save 10% 😁
