Just two days after reducing hamper prices by a further 10% to 30% off, they have knocked yet more off selected hampers. Their latest special offer on hampers is a staggering 50% off selected hampers plus FREE delivery. The offer is so fresh they haven’t even after updated their home page which still shows just 30% off hampers. Use the discount code on their landing page to get the reduction.

Dixons has hit back in the war of the electrical retailers by chopping prices storewide by 5% until December 22. Margins have been eroded aggressively by the electrical retailers this Christmas with waves of discount codes and offers from Currys, Comet and Dixons. The latest cut by Dixons is in response to both Currys and Comet extending their discount code offers right up until Christmas in most cases.

Marks & Spencer has reduced selected hampers by 30% (the previous offer was a 20% reduction on all hampers) as Christmas approaches. They’ve been pretty brazen about it too by plastering a discount code on their Christmas Hamper landing page that’s pretty difficult to miss. Read more »
Currys and Comet have extended all their current discount code offers in the final week before Christmas. Both retailers have been heavily discounting a number of their most popular product ranges such as DVD players, MP3 players, Hi-Fi, Mini Hi-Fi, DAB radios as well as some white goods.

It would take me all night to list all the special offers and sales this weekend but one thing’s for sure, the online retailers are after your business and they’re prepared to cut prices to get it. This weekend promises to be probably the busiest online Christmas shopping weekend so far and will probably prove to be the busiest of 2008 with just one more to go after this. Many guaranteed last order dates for Christmas are approaching fast so you will need to be quick to grab the best bargains in time for Christmas.
Here are some of the best offers I have found this weekend: Read more »
Maplin has extended its 3 for 2 offer on toys until Christmas Eve – although you’ll obviously need to order before then to be sure of delivery for Christmas.
They have a great new section setup for the offer which includes very neat presents such as remote controlled helicopters, remote controlled planes, remote controlled cars, motorised trikes, Meccano and even a usb piano!! They really do have some great gifts. Click here for the Maplin website. Read more »

Moss Bros, the upmarket men’s and women’s shop and hire retailer has issued a great new discount code offering 20% off selected brands including classic tailored tuxedos or stylish party suits. The discount is available until December 18.
It’s quite unusual for retailers to issue discounts that are available in-store as well as online but Moss Bros is obviously trying to grab a greater share of the suit and black tie hire business for those Christmas parties that are taking place over the next week and a half.
You can get the online discount code here. But if you’d prefer to use the discount available at your local store, then click on the image above and print the voucher out. 20% off suit hire at this time of year is a very welcome bonus. Read more »
This offer might interest guys searching for that elusive gift for loved ones this Christmas. Call it a credit crunching offer if you like, but it’s certainly a very significant one.
Goldsmiths, the UK’s largest luxury jeweller, has reduced prices by 25% on all diamond rings and diamond jewellery. So, if you were intending to really splash the cash this Christmas and treat that lady in your life, then you can now at a much better price – and if you weren’t intending to, then take a look here and work out the prices less 25%. This offer runs until December 19 at midnight online.

Dixons has taken its festive offering right to the wire by extending its main discount code of 3% off all sales right up to Christmas Eve. The Dixons discount code will now expire at 9am on December 22 when it will be replaced with a new offer – which means they’ve extended it by a further 2 weeks. This is great news for shoppers looking to save money in the last 2 weeks before Christmas.

It’s lovely to see that The Stylophone has made something of a comeback this year. For us 40-somethings that fondly remember Rolf Harris introducing this cute ‘piano-like’ musical instrument – and then Rick Wakeman showing everyone what it can really do – it adds a touch of nostalgia to see it back in stores this Christmas.

Bean Bags!! Didn’t they die out in the 80s? Well, no they didn’t. In fact, bean bags are making something of a comeback. And, one of the reason they’re having a bit of a renaissance – in my view – is because of the absolute legions of today’s youth that lie prostrate in front of a games console - (am I sounding cynical enough yet?).

As Christmas shopping reaches fever pitch most stores are already thinking about the January sales and what kind of trade that will bring. That aside, with two and a half weeks to go until Christmas, online stores are pushing out last minute offers and advertising their last order dates for Christmas. Here’s a selection that may be of use: Read more »
As I reported , despite stock problems, The Slanket is back in stock this week at Prezziesplus. But, for how long, is a good a question. So, my advice is that if you want to get someone a Slanket for Christmas, ORDER IT NOW. Read more »
With just over 2 weeks to go before Christmas, now is the time to be thinking about buying your Christmas hamper. Christmas hampers make great corporate gifts as well as excellent gifts for friends and family. And you don’t have to spend a fortune on a Christmas Hamper this year with M&S offering Christmas hampers from just £20 – right up to £999.99 for the Christmas spectacular hamper.

The Original Gift Company may have come to the aid to those of you who really haven’t a clue (like me) what to buy friends or family this Christmas.
They are offering a real box of goodies worth £40 for just £14.95…but, of course, you won’t have a clue what’s in the parcel. This is a great way to solve those ‘hard to buy for’ people or just to add a bit of novelty for Christmas Day. Read more »
Sky Digital has some great offers this December in an attempt to bolster viewer subscriptions. The credit crunch has hit TV and media quite hard and Sky is putting some very tempting offers in front of consumers, including price reductions, to get new subscribers. All that is good news if you were thinking of buying Sky TV for someone for Christmas.

This is one not to miss if you were going to buy the new Playstation 3 game, Call of Duty: World at War game this Christmas. For a limited period only it’s just £32.79 at Simply Games (the limited period hasn’t been defined as yet) with FREE delivery. Read more »
Marks & Spencer and John Lewis don’t seem to know whether they are coming or going with their sudden price reductions – but one suspects there are a few moles rattling around as the Christmas silly season takes hold.Â
Both merchants have been engaging in very, very sudden 1-day price reductions, and far be it from me to say they are reacting to each other or trying to amass as many sales as is possible at the expense of the other. Read more »
Currys is ramping it up for Christmas as the retail war in games consoles hots up. Currys is offering the new Playstation 3 160GB console with 3 FREE games for just £341.56. This is one of the latest offers from Currys which is aiming to steal a march on its competitors in the electricals marketplace.
The new 160GB Sony PS3 features the following: Read more »
I was going to write about The Slanket and tell you what a great Christmas present it would make but….stock levels are at a really low level due to its incredible popularity. I guess this was always likely to happen. For one, it’s cute but, more significantly, with winter approaching, hundreds of people have realised what a great way this is to keep warm and also what a fabulous Christmas present it would make. Prezziesplus is the best bet for one this Christmas… Read more »
Now this I like (even if the concept of Christmas stockings doesn’t particularly excite me). The Gift Experience will personalise a Christmas stocking for your child (or an adult if you so choose) for just £5.99. You just type the name on the order form online.
Presumably though, printing one name takes a little while as they recommend you order 14 days in advance. Well Monday is December 1, so you’ve got about 2 weeks to order this stocking online. Read more »
Toys R Us is selling the new Ben 10-figure pack for just £29.87 in the run up to Christmas so if you have a fan of the TV show in your house this could be the perfect Christmas present. The 10 figure pack features the following characters and aliens from the TV show: Read more »
