I need knickers. Wondering about British Boxers or Stripe & Stare if anyone has any views on either?

Also browsing for autumn/winter work wear for next year.

Anyone else found any good bargains?

Slippers in Next for £9.

DH and DS each for a pair of cargos for £12 in Marks and DS got two shirts for school. He finishes in the summer so that will be the last.

I want some walking boots, but size 9s seem to be getting rarer and rarer.
I'll have to buy men's ones, which is fine.. but.. well, they should make size 9 for women as standard dang it.

I've got a John Lewis stash arriving tomorrow

Stripe & Stare knickers are super comfortable and no vpl ✔️ There’s no support in them though so if you like a bit of compression/shaping, maybe not.

That’s good to know. Three children in three years means I do need a bit of something for the lower abdomen apron

Got a jacket/fleece from Passenger and a sequin dress from H&M.

I bought a load of stripe and stare last year and they're lovely, I put them in laundry nets and wash on a delicate wash. Jury is out as to whether they're worth the money, but I find them very comfortable. I like the high rise ones.

@NunyaBeeswax M&S had some good prices on columbia boots not sure what sizes in stock

SavageGarden23 · 27/12/2024 16:15

Seasalt hushing gown,thanks to mumsnet for introduction. Uniqlo satin skirt. I ordered some zara perfume but don't think the order went through. Some spring jacket and coat from stradivarius.

Never thought m&s would have branded hiking boots.. thanks. I'll go look.

John Lewis cashmere jumpers and towels. Predictable but useful.

cromwell44 · 27/12/2024 16:43

I really want brown suede boots but the few pairs I like are £££s and not in the sale.

ArianaGrandSlay · 27/12/2024 16:51

Reiss knitwear
Also Uniqlo satin skirt

That will do- I really don't need anything.

Apart from my unicorn shirt (other thread)

I got some bnwt on VINTED for £12.00 and another pair on BrandAlley reduced to £200 from £900+

thenewaveragebear1983 · 27/12/2024 17:05

I bought some cord joggers and two oversized t shirts in the Hush, and a Reiss knitted vest and a few basics/vest tops/ underwear in next. All online so may need to return it but I'm confined to the sofa as I've been really unwell over Christmas! I also would like some makeup brushes but not bought any yet..

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 27/12/2024 17:17

We're going to buy a new fridge-freezer. The old one is 14 years old so it's done well but the freezer side has always been a bit of a pain because things tend to fall off the shelves when you open the door, and it doesn't hold as much as you think it would. We are going to get the type that has a double door fridge on top and a drawer freezer on the bottom.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 27/12/2024 17:22

I ordered a boxed set of Narciso Rodriguez perfume - mine is on the dregs and I paid £43 for perfume, body lotion and shower gel which was a total bargain. I’ve also ordered a Topshop cardi via ASOS. Per pp I have been really ill all week and not left the house since last Saturday, so online only for me.

Oldraver · 27/12/2024 17:32

A different vet from Soak and Sleep that technically arrived today but DPD man didn't knock on our door so he dumped it outside a shop that had been broken into overnight so I can't retrieve it yet

henlake7 · 27/12/2024 17:32

A cute cottagecore style sweater vest from Joanie.
A tie dye skater style dress from Disturbia (was an extra 25% on their sale price so I caved!).

Terrible really, I already bought some stuff in the earlier Black Friday sales.....I was supposed to be being good!😬

Oldraver · 27/12/2024 17:33

A duvet....

Happiestwhen · 27/12/2024 17:37

I bought some fleeces for myself in the Next sale and clothes for dc. On the lookout for some reduced yankee Christmas candles if anyone has seen any?! I love the smell from the spiced apple/cinnamon type ones 😍

MulberryPeony · 27/12/2024 17:45

I’ve got these winging their way to me hopefully tomorrow - with an extra 40% off sale prices.

A Toast bandana and also a Reiss jumper (from Next sale) coming sometime mid Jan if it comes.

What are you getting in the sales?
MulberryPeony · 27/12/2024 17:46

@Happiestwhen I was given a frosted snow pine Yankee as a gift and I can highly recommend it. Very fresh and ozonic.
