Hi
i don’t know if this has already been posted but ASOS has 60% off some items…

My Bubble Panda order arrived today, I'm very pleased. The glass is good quality and it comes with a straw cleaner big enough for it. Mine came with 3 green tea bags and one strawberry+raspberry, 4 flavour syrups and 4 lots of flavoured bubbles. Has a recipe card inside too

I quite like the wording - it's like a polite version of 'nice try!' ... recognising that an unintended discount is being withdrawn and it would have been obvious to any buyer that it was a mistake... 😇

Can’t say I’m surprised they cancelled but I think it says a lot about a company how they deal with these errors and that wasn’t the way!

What is the Harper Collins deal please

A book from Harper Collins whilst they have 50% off? (Code: OLDFRIEND).

They have lots of National Trust ones included - British bucket lists, pub walks, country walks etc plus NT cook books. The remarkable football/rugby/cricket grounds ones mentioned above also look good. The site is terrible to navigate so you do have to dig around a bit.

My first PLouise order arrived and I'm very pleased! I got 2 of the micellar water, and the mystery bag was another bad bitch energy duo and make up remover wipes.
I'd already ordered enough of the bad bitch energy duos for all of my nieces so opened the extra one for myself.
Inside the outer packaging the lip oil and lip conditioner are individually packed, so if anyone wanted to gift it without the 'bitch' wording, eg for tweens, the outer packaging can just be removed!

Slowly working my way through the super seconds website but managed to grab this cute gingerbread house with wax melts inside for £4 including p&p 😍

Thanks for letting us know about the packaging - I didn’t want to gift it with that on and have two orders coming with a free one in each so it’s great to know I can just take it out of the box.

Oh that looks lovely - I will look. I did go on it (the Super Seconds Sale) but It felt it too overwhelming - even when I used the filter to reduce categories I was just endlessly scrolling - I know it’s an easy way out for me but this is such a help someone like you @hugsandpugs posting any great bargains. Thanks for sharing.

edited for typos

I think Danielle East's cyanotype products are quite a bargain - ear-rings for around £3, lucky dip packs for £10 containing a selection of her products including cards, prints, earrings etc...

Photos of the one I opened!

This is really good to know, thank you!

That’s brilliant. I assumed they be wrapped in tissue or something. Being boxed like that means no one would even know they had been taken out of a box.
thanks for your help @DressOrSkirt

This has now sold out, wish I had known there was free postage earlier.

If anyone else sees any wax melt/candle bargains please post, looking for something to go with the candle warmer lamps.

I have ordered the Mystery Bag for £5 delivered.

Says five bags or bars - just can’t choose which. They have had stickers on or damaged labels but I guessed I could easily repack them in a little box or small Christmas gift bag.

Might be worth thinking about ?

Pinclothing is in the SUPERSECONDS sale. They are offering free shipping. She handmakes clothing and accessories. Just managed to get a beautiful headband for £2 including p&p as I had £2 in rewards points to use too 💕 worth a look

My Plouise order come and I'm slightly disappointed with my mystery bag! I had an eyeliner pencil and a mini lip gloss. I don't know what I was expecting but thought it would be more like this post with the duo set!

I've just done the same! Please could anyone let me know if they find any similar offers on SuperSeconds with the loyalty / rewards points

Just got some bargain homemade face wipes with towelling in one side and free delivery from this seller - perfect to go with my Bargain PLouise Misceller waters for Christmas stocking fillers - I must step away from this site 😂😂

Good deals for cheap nail polish sets? It's for kids, doesn't have to be kids nail polishes but equally not the best stuff

Tescos had some good reduce bits that would be good for stocking fillers. I got this hot wheels activity set for £1.95 down from £6.50 (always find these handy for when we’re traveling and going to restaurants). They also had a Hardy Potter water bottle down to £2.50 (like the Chilly’s style) and Squishmallow stationary around £1.50.

Claire’s sale always used to be my go to for cheap nail varnish for kids.

If you are near one and if you don’t mind adults brands Primark do little bottles with tops like balls that are 75p / £1 and lovely colours. They are really easy to use, not the gloopy type. Often have colours in the sale too as they change colours.
