My 5 year old wants a real camera for Christmas. Can anyone recommend one? We have one that print little pictures, it he is looking for something more grown up. I wondered about camp snap?

Dad got a Vtech kids one for her 5th birthday. Super easy to use and she still uses it at 7.

jocktamsonsbairn · 06/11/2026 07:03

Aargh! Freezer has just broken down - anyone have any Argos codes they could send me please? Be very grateful. Just what I don’t need before Christmas!

I bought a refurbished one from music magpie and it’s basically like brand new. I’ve been very happy with it and it was a substantial saving.

Thank you. If it was for me I’d be all over that (much more sensible) but he’s been through a lot this year and I want to get him something special which he wants (he’s had major heart surgery and the new one has all the heart related bells and whistles). It’s frustrating when I see how much cheaper the series 11 is in comparison!

Morning all. thread 8, I'm a little late this year! lets see what bargains are to be had then eh 🌲

MerylSqueak · 06/11/2026 07:48

🌲Popsa has 50% off photo books and a gift box with code ESF2026.

I haven't bought one of these myself, but this set of 6 Baylis and Harding Christmas bags with bath bubbles looks sweet. But...first two reviews say only one bag was delivered, but most recent one says 6 were delivered. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Baylis-Harding-Seasonal-Fragrances-Friendly/dp/B0GZR259DK/ref=sr_1_10

Pimpernel · 06/11/2026 08:07

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but there was some talk about the Bouquet in a Book earlier. Again, I haven't bought this myself, but there is a Christmas wreath book as well. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bouquet-Book-Christmas-Wreath-Pre-punched/dp/1446318710/ref=sr_1_2

🎄 Whatnot
I used my referral credit on Whatnot last night to get the Fisher Price Little People Toy Story Andy's Room for £8.27 including postage. It was priced at £25 + £3.27 shipping . It's almost £30 in most shops plus delivery, and £20+ on Vinted so I'm really pleased with that for my smallest who will be 2 in February.

I've put my referral link on the bargain referral thread, you'll get between £10 and £200 credit to spend on live shows or buy it now items, and I will get credit matched to yours when you receive your purchase which would be lovely!

The 46mm series 12. Size M-L. I do think our education days are mostly behind us now (just our DS but he’s 4!)

Crosley Silver Cruiser Bluetooth Record Player | Urban Outfitters UK https://share.google/SKUFuGDtngqHdt7um no idea about record players but looks nice for the price! X

If anyone is looking to get something from Urban Outfitters, hold out. They always do 30 percent off sale on black Friday!

Regarding Vinyl players, I have researched extensively on this and think I can help.

The ones that have the speakers built in are handy and cheap but they have a lower quality of sound and will damage vinyls over time. For the normal user, this won't be an issue, but if you're a collector and want to keep things in good order, avoid like the plague.

The best bang for your buck is hands down:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-PS-LX3BT-Bluetooth-Turntable-Operation-Black/dp/B0GF9LPR9X/ref=mp_s_a_1_1

It's actually £100 off on a limited offer at the moment!

Get yourself a pair of decent bookshelf speakers to go with it (I went for Edifier) and you are looking at a brilliant, Crystal clear set up for way less than the high-end equivalent.

That's my two cents anyway :)

I got my dad this last year for Christmas after a lot of research on price vs quality - really happy with it.

Just managed to order 100ml Armani Si for £80 from Notino - much cheaper than anywhere else. Was going to get in duty free next month but the price was better now
