I'm hoping they'll move those discounts online since stores have to close tonight for 4 weeks...

Boots had also reductions on their advent calendars. I didn't get any because I have enough but I was curious to see if there was reductions. Debenhams had their chocolate calendars 30% off.

CountryCob · 04/11/2020 19:45

Yes Black Friday will be a big deal I think, I already have 2 but just bought a wax melt advent! Anything to brighten up what I think is likely to still be lock down

Has anyone started opening their Liberty calendar? I've got it for November, a slow, every few days, opening a drawer to give a chance to try each product uniquely. So far, I've reached day 3 and have had 3 sample sized products. What a joke that it's advertised full size. Feels like freebie sizes.

EatPrayYoga · 05/11/2020 20:07

Has anyone tried Grace Cole products? There is an advent calendar for about £30 bit I'm not sure how nice the products are

ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson · 05/11/2020 21:58

Just delurking to say the Rituals one is lovely so far - decent size products and some nice things. I won’t say what in case other people have the calendar and are saving it for actual Advent!

buckeejit · 06/11/2020 00:02

@EatPrayYoga I think I had a grace Cole candle a while ago & wasn't dying about it.

There's a great deal on neom candles atm on qvc if you get a £10 off referral from the Christmas referrals thread. It works out at 3 for more or less the price of 1-total bargain

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 00:06

@ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson I’m thinking about getting the rituals calendar - maybe for January. You’re enabling me 😂

EatPrayYoga · 06/11/2020 07:39

@buckeejit I thought it might be a so so brand.

The Neom deal sounds good. QVC has some really good deals. I got four Molton Brown hand soaps for about £40 when they are usually about £20 each.

I've got a £10 off code / link to share from when I ordered my velvetiser but I think you have to be a new customer to use that one,

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 07:46

Neom desk looks fab. Maybe I can get DH to register !

CupboardMonsterMash · 06/11/2020 07:59

The Neom offer is amazing, I couldn't resist! I've posted my code to share the love. Three for the price of one actually makes them affordable.
I'm still in the market for a Janvent beauty calendar so hope for some discounts to appear.
I bought DH the degustobox advent calendar, I've warned him it might be full of weird junk food crap but he seemed quite pleased by that.

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 08:18

I’m going to order it - where is the code please?

TeatimeAtCloppa · 06/11/2020 08:18

Degustobox you say? Monster what is this of which you speak?That sounds perfect for my DH! 😂

whereshalligo · 06/11/2020 08:39

Boots No7 advent calendar back in stock but be quick

CupboardMonsterMash · 06/11/2020 08:42

Code is on the Christmas referrals thread 2 @Pomegranatespompom under the Christmas board topic, be warned it's a bargain hunters paradise over there!

The degustobox was £35 and they don't tell you what's in it. He's genuinely excited which is rather sweet as he usually finds my advent obsession a bit baffling.
I take no responsibility if it is awful! lp.degustabox.com/uk-advent-calendar-2020/

@Itsabeautifuldaytosavelives123 start November LIberty chat if you want, don't want to comment too much here to avoid spoilers but doing pretty much same as you and happy to chat somewhere safe :)

I don't want to mess up things for people opening it in December

EatPrayYoga · 06/11/2020 09:06

I have sent you an email Pom but if anyone wants to send me their email I can send the QVC code I've got to you.

I'm intrigued by the degusta box calendar. I used to subscribe to their boxes for a while.

That’s a good idea. No, don’t want to spoil it on anyone. I imagine it’s the same as previous years re sizes, this is my first Liberty calendar. Think I’ve been spoilt by FabFitFun though!

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 10:22

Thank you for the neon information @CupboardMonsterMash and @EatPrayYoga Going to look now.

Please no Liberty spoilers Smile

AprilLady · 06/11/2020 12:22

I’m going to be strong and resist the Neom offer, though it looks better value than my final in shop purchase (a candle less 20% at HoF). Rather glad I don’t live near a John Lewis, as I would have been sorely tempted by the Molton Brown calendar at 30% off.

I opened the first draw of my first calendar today, happy with item no. 1.

I may not have resistedBlush

I'm justifying it on the grounds that I can use a presents, completely ignoring the fact that I've already bought presents for anyone who would like one.

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 12:48

@OchonAgusOchonO I have multiple excess presents too. I’m possibly slightly out of control.

TeatimeAtCloppa · 06/11/2020 13:06

I'm a complete oddity on Mumsnet in that I like Yankee Candles better than Neom. In fact, my favourite candle of all time is the Home Essence Cedar and Bergamot at around a fiver. Blush it is so fresh and gorgeous.

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 13:50

I don't think I've ever tried yankee candle @TeatimeAtCloppa
I was gifted a neom set a couple of years ago and I'm now a complete convert. I tried a candle from liberty last year, purchased as a treat (Scandinavian brand) and it had pretty much no aroma, also prefer to true grace. I do like diptyque, but think Neom smells more spa like.

XmasLockdown · 06/11/2020 13:58

@TeatimeAtCloppa I like Yankee candles as well. Not sure what my favourite is but pink sands and fresh cut roses are nice.
