Not Christmasy as such but if anyone has the Lidl plus app and has a dog or cat they are giving this toy away free! I picked up a dog one today for our puglets 😅

Any particularly popular presents for 9yr old girls? Into everything you’d expect, nails stuff, squishies and crafts. Looking for something she won’t have or a bit of a bargain!

Long time lurker. Thanks for the bargains! My husband is cursing all the parcels coming in 🤣

I emailed Monsoon to see if the promotion could be applied to my account but it was a no. They said it was a targeted marketing promotion for select accounts that couldn't be manually applied.

Would appreciate if anyone has a spare code to get my girls some stocking fillers ✨️🧦

If that code is still available I’d love it. No worries if not though, thank you

Smiggle have a really good sale on just now. My order arrived yesterday and everything is lovely!

@Reastie I think it was a weighted blanket that spellcheck corrected incorrectly to balcony. The cats were really more like one of the walking clubs that meet for pub walks but with cats and dreamies.

I'm aware you may not be feeling much less confused now.

Im sure someone posted a link to this on yesterday thread for £6 using a gems link and code GEMS

I have a Boden £25 off £75 spend if anyone would like it.

Also, Freemans seem to have some good prices in things. DD wanted a skateboard and loves spongebob. I'd seen it on other sites for £24.99 but Freemans had it for less. When I went to order a pop up came up saying order on flexi pay using a code and it would be discounted some more. The flexi pay is 3 interest free payments. The only thing is it signs you up to a credit account.

A spongebob skateboard?!

Yes, thats right. Managed to get it for £18 something delivered.

Bath bombs, shower foam, shower Jelly etc all popular.
Jelly cats are huge - Smiggle has some reduced and I got £5 off at check out for signing up.
Body sprays like Sol de janerio - boots have the pink travel set for £23 or fragrance for similar.

Would love a Boden code for £25 off £25.01 if anyone has one please 🙏🤞

Not as cheap as the last bubble panda offer someone kindly posted a while ago but if someone is going to buy anyway? Went down very well with youngest so going for the Halloween one and a couple more 😬
Its does say best used within 30 days but fine up to 60.

The Harper Collins 50% just worked for me so maybe not hit 500 customers yet FIRST500

If anyone is looking for a bulky present for a child, they had these body pillows in Aldi for £17.99. Equivalent on Amazon are £60. They have a lovely soft cover with a firm pillow, and are huge.

Same thing on Amazon https://amzn.eu/d/03wRM5oX

Bedazzling kits! Lots on Amazon.

@fishfingersandchipsagaini saw that body pillow in Aldi today. Really wanted one for me!

2nd this, they are hugely popular atm.

I’ve PM’d you x

Very dull question, but can anyone recommend a good, yet bargainous, electric toothbrush, please?
i can’t get new heads for my old one anymore😢

Tesco have quite a few on Clubcard price. eg Oral b pro 1 with travel case for £35.
I think I'd avoid the iOS as the replacement heads are quite expensive - £10 for 2 on Boots £10 Tuesdays is the best I've seen them.

My kid would love that. I'll Google it now. Thanks
