Got a box of 20 tayto cheese and onion (variety was also available ) in lidl today for 3.89 or 3.95 lol can't member which !

fussyonion

I'm not buying the boxes of Tayto, Glitzigirl...I have no self-control when it comes to crisps.
I'll stick with one or two tubes of Pringles over Christmas; at least that way when they're gone, they're gone quickly.
Enjoy yours though!

2 large Yankee Candles (selected fragrances) for €25 in Homestore + More at the moment.

Was looking on Wish last night and they have a few Christmas bargains. I have never ordered from them before, has any of the other elves?

Very Sketchy site be very careful ordering from these. My mother spend over 100 euro ordering stuff from them. Half of her other came after a long wait, which was very bad quality might I add, she is still waiting on a refund for the missing items. Their customer service is non existent.

Loughc

I haven't used Wish myself personally but anyone I do know that have used it have complained about the quality of the products, then again for the prices quoted even if you got a year out of the stuff it'd be worth it.

Whispered

Ive ordered several things over the past year and find the reviews pretty spot on. If it's bad quality then reviewers will say so just don't go by the reviews that are first in the page, scroll down a bit.

Say out of 10 items maybe 3 were of great quality, 5 were good for the price and 2 were a waste of cash. However I was refunded easily for the 2 (although I cheated and said they never arrived so didn't have to post back).

Just yesterday I had a delivery of a large sack cloth cushion cover with the lyrics to the song "you are my sunshine" printed on it and I'm really happy with it

Glitzgirl

+1 to the above statements kitten_k. I haven't used Wish as I have heard a lot of negative reviews. I know it may be a bit more expensive but heatons and homestore and more had some of those bits . At least if there was a problem u could exchange them

kitten_k

Thanks everyone.

Marks & Spencer have a good sale on boxes of chocolates/biscuits at the moment. They're always back to full price before Xmas itself, so handy if anyone is stocking up/buying gifts.

Loughc

I know many of ye know about this but for anyone that doesn't...

Toto Wolfcastle

Argos 3 for 2 should be starting fairly soon too.

Whispered

Heatons half price toy sale have great stuff in it. From big Santa gifts to stocking fillers. Also, dunno if it's still on but halfords were selling items for way less than half price. I got a ride on trike for €25 down from €90 (may have mentioned that already.)

SarahLil

I know most supermarkets have tins of sweets in but I heard Dunnes are doing two tins for 10 euro and you can mix and match tins

They are - I got a tin of Roses & a tin of Heroes. They also had Celebrations. That was in Drogheda.

matchthis

Argos 3 for 2 on toys is on

SarahLil

Anyone looking for biscuits for themselves or gifts marks and spencer had boxes 2 for 10 euro mix and match in store

I imagine they will go back up in price I'm undecided might pick some up for my mams neighbours they have been very good to us, I am leaning towards candles for them but some of the biscuits look quite fancy

Brown Thomas are currently doing Clinique bonus time if anyone is planning on buying anybody beauty products this year.

Christmas stuff in lidl next Monday 17th, including those wireless sockets, I think I've read about people using them for tree lights, are they worth a purchase?

Yes yes yes to the wireless sockets. I bought them last year in LIDL and I use them everyday since for everything.

Cherrycola

Great, I'll make sure to grab a set so!

Are they really good Loughc ? Was thinking of getting them for my mothers house as she lives alone now, would they be handy for putting a lamp on etc? TIA

We're using 3 of the 4 we bought now. One for the tv, one for a lamp and another for our sound system.

Remote control sockets really. So you can turn off your Christmas tree lights by pressing a remote button rather than having to reach in behind the tree to switch it off.

kitten_k

We've had them for the few years also, it makes it so much easier to turn everything on at Christmas

Nelly 21

Tescos had chocolate Kimberly for E8 today! I always stock up on these for Christmas!

Glitzgirl

Thanks for the review on the remote sockets was looking at these myself !! Also I'm almost sure I seen boots 3 for 2 has started on my fb time line today !

There's a Christmas Tree on sale in Lidl next Monday for 29.99. http://www.lidl.ie/en/Offers.htm?action=showDetail&id=46722

Anyone ever bought one of them before? I'm looking for a tree for our kitchen. Mr. Shoe Lover likes a real tree but our house is so warm, that the bugger was pretty much dead the day after Christmas Day, so I've decided that this year, he can have his real tree in the sitting room & I'm putting a fake one in the kitchen as I spend more time during Christmas in there anyway.

I never bought one in LIDL but I got one in home store and more last year and it's great. If you're getting a fake tree my advice would be to splash the cash for it as you'll have it for years and years.

I was thinking of Homestore - but they won't have their trees in until after Hallowe'en. Think I'll wait - 30quid seems a bit too good to be true! Don't want it looking too sparse or stingy.

I bought one in Argos for €40 before and the poor tree looked like it had alopecia by the second year I had it.

oh those storage tins are just fab. I'd struggle to think what to put in them, but I'm tempted!

Dunnes have the tins of Cadbury biscuits 2 for 10e and plastic tins of celebrations and heroes for 6e
