Toothbrushes

Boots have half price offers plus extra points and savings with advantage card plus EBSAVE10

Not very festive but oral health is important all year round lol. I just ordered 5 toothbrushes plus spare heads. Ho ho ho

If anyone is wavering on Starfish because of the £5 postage, they sent me a free postage code after I left something in my basket - LOYALCUSTOMERSHIPPINGCODE

(Yes, it did nudge me to buy it 😅)

Thanks for the Stripe & Stare tip. I'd never heard of them, but the reviews are off the scale. I've ordered the multi-pack for me, 2 pairs for DNiece & a pair of men's boxers for one of my DS to try. The 10% code worked on sale & took me under the £50 limit for free postage, but it didn't charge it. Great news, as it's £4.90 postage.

Of course, no problem.

As you said, adding 3 of them gave 20% off, taking the price down to £37.20. I got a 15% discount for signing up for emails, so applying the code BAUFAMILY15 at the Coupon Code bit at checkout took it down to £30.22. Delivery is free over £25.

Hope that works for you, it's a great saving.

These crocs slippers are down to £25 and there’s an extra 10% off sale prices with the code AFHUKDCR25-45AE-XTOR-SXCA-RM67

Thanks for this 🙂. Extra 10% off the sale with a bluelight card too!

It does apply the EARLYBIRD if you buy the seasonal ones (As its a Christmas gift offer) but 20% off over three on other items.

Also worth noting that the 3 for 2 covers the St Eval advent calendar.

It's great that either way (by stacking the 20% off with the new customer code) or the EARLYBIRD discount code on the christmassy tins, you are essentially getting one candle tin free. Plus I love a company that does free delivery without having to spend crazy amounts.

Still few things left in Baby Born sale. I managed to get two dolls and some clothes today

Thank you so much, this worked for me.

3 lovely St Eval candles ordered for gifts.

Do you happen to know if these have got decent grip on the soles? Nothing worse than slippy slippers, especially when walking down stairs!

How about a bracelet making kit like this: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7411276

Also got my daughter's friend a Spirograph set, currently £9.99 in Smyth's Toys, which went down very well.

Thank you for this! I had missed all the previous replies about Starfish and just used the free postage code to buy a beautiful pair of earrings for a friend who will be joining us on Christmas Day. I’m really pleased.

FYI for the code to work I had to create an account and then apply the code whilst signed in.

Boden up to 40% off sale has started

H&M sale started today, lots of wintery bits in the sale including a few Christmas clothes for kids, got my toddler some Grinch slippers for £3 and my sister some satin pyjamas reduced from £38 to £15

Thanks for the croc slippers. Definitely going to order for the kids. I can’t get the 10% code to work though. Anyone else having problems?

I’m not sure I was debating getting them for DS but never bought them before! Hopefully someone else will know 😊

These are the soles of the crocs, the lettering is a little rubbery but I wouldn’t say the grippiest of things.

Naked marshmallow has some new festive flavours out and it’s £10 off when spending minimum £20 with code FIRST10

I've had an email from Fahlo, 3 trackers for £25. Code is FALL3
I know they are loved and hated in equal measure but we've always had success with them, and when trackers have stopped we've got a new animal to track fairly quickly.

Thanks for crocs and st eval candle code. Amazing 😍

ASOS have 25% off selected items with code FAVES. Loads of branded clothes and shoes included - Nike, Ralph Lauren etc for brand loving teens.

Whoever suggested Rex London, thank you! They have some fab quirky gifts in the Clearance and a lot of good little stocking fillers

You're a star. Will try now.
