Someone up thread said if you put stuff in your basket and leave it they email with 25% off to complete your purchase

Ordered, thank you

@daisyboo1 my Christmas wreath order was cancelled too.

I’ve just placed an order with Plouise, not as bargainous as some, but I saved a bit. However, I noticed after I checked out that the lip duo hasn’t gone on, but trying to place another order I can’t get any discount at all. I used Gmail +1 but no luck.

@Timetotakepart ah, sorry to hear that. Interesting it wasn't just one of then! I can't find anything similar anywhere else to buy, which is a shame as I thought it would be a nice little activity.

I love the idea of the super seconds but there are a lot of pages and even finding the offers is a bit overwhelming. If anyone spots anything lovely, it would be wonderful if they could share it here…. Unless there’s a dedicated thread @hugsandpugs?

I don’t think there’s a dedicated thread. I’m just having a look now. I’ve found some wax melts I’m considering…. I’ve signed up to the rewards scheme on the businesses website.

The snap bars are down to £2.75 each so I put 2 in basket and the VIP rewards scheme points would mean I’d get two for £1.50 and then £3 shipping which isn’t too bad! I’ll update here if I find anything else

I'll try that thank you!

Thanks for this! I’ve saved £100 this morning. Trying to focus on that rather than what I’ve spent 😆

Speaking of stock I had a sock shop email with the sports ones 2 pack for £15. They are usually £10 each.

my code was BAMCREW2 with RE1M2JGJ for free delivery but also 2 pack of boxers gives free delivery

also stack with blue light

The spicery usual do legends month about now which is the best. There are also referrals for 10%off abs £5 to the referrers

on the referrals thread

That was for New Look. Next don’t do that, or any other discounts unfortunately. Always worth a look in the clearance section though (scroll all the way to the right on the app).

@InbetweenDreams I’ve used Fortnum and Mason the last three years and I’ve only seen the offer of free postage (usually around £8) around Black Friday

Desperately need to get organised, feeling very slow this year!

Any good deals of any generic men gifts? A lot of the bargains seem to be for women and I surprisingly have a lot of male family to buy for!

Yy to charity shop for gift bags or card factory or the works too
i confess I have loads and they keep being passed around people back and forth

The hamper that was posted upthread looked great.

Thanks you

🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️Sorry

There’s a penguin gift set in the Star Gifts offer at boots too

Thank you

Mountain warehouse bargain £2 boots cancelled - worth taking a punt on though. Thanks to the poster as you just never know what may slip though one of these fine days.

Fake Lego Capybara from The Works £5

Same, but was worth a try 😂

My boots have also been cancelled. The wording of these emails annoys me ‘we are pleased to inform you a refund has been issued’ - what a strange way of saying ‘sorry we’ve had to cancel your order’
