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. Read more »

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 »

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 »

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 »

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.

This is great news for shoppers looking to save money in the last 2 weeks before Christmas. Read more »

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?).
