Best christmas bargains I got so far are Parkside 2800w pressure washer in Lidl for 60 euro reduced from 110 euro.And a Rolson 9 led stainless steel torch in Tesco for 49 cents,reduced from 4 euro.Very handy for around the house and garden,washing the car down and in the event of a blackout or if the car breaks down at night.

I bought two Kindles from Argos for 109 each and each came with a 20 euro argos voucher for some reason. They have since jumped to 139 euro.
So subsequently bought a new iron for a few quid. Missus will be so happy with the Iron for Christmas ... ;-)

Got a leather jacket priced at 450 for 290. It kind of smelled of Mr muscle or something like that so I pointed this out to the manager and said if you knock a few quid off I'll buy it. Gives me 160 bills off it......result.

i met mr muscle in tesco yesterday he was buying argos vouchers and he told me if he finds the guy who stole his leather jacket hes gonna wipe the floor with him.

Only a bargain in that I managed to avoid the panic prices on Adverts, but I was standing with my mum in Smyths yesterday, trying to help her figure out what to get my little girl. Dude rolled up beside us and placed a pallet of Snow Globe Elsa's right at our feet. "Ooh, that'll do", I thought to myself and picked one up, before the store went eerily silent as a swarm zipped towards us. Wee sidestep and off to the till, full of smug festive cheer.
