I got one on Black Friday 2 years ago, it was £30 down to £15. I'm hoping somewhere will do the same this year so this is a standby one really, just in case.

Morning all!
I have a money saving quandary, any advice gratefully received!
I have been told by the butcher in town that his fresh, free-range local turkeys will be £7 a kilo and I can preorder (with any other extras if wanted) and pick up a day or so before Christmas. However, I think I got one from Lidl last year which was really nice and cheaper, but very unlikely to be free range or local.
Should I save the money and go to Lidl, taking the risk they won't have exactly what I want as I can't preorder, or should I spend the extra and support local business, knowing it'll cost me up to a tenner more? Lidl haven't released their prices yet but it's normally about £25, from previous experience. I daren't risk the Christmas Eve RTC rush for it as our T is quite small and we want to see friends in the morning and family will be arriving mid-afternoon.
Also, if anyone sees a Chromecast (normal, not the audio version) for less than £20, then please let me know as I'll be returning this morning's purchase!
Just need a brushed cotton nightie for an 80-year old and some strong, hard-wearing white men's sports socks, then that'll be another 2 people off the tick list
Butcher all the way for me this year. So far this year, every bit of meat I've had from them has been amazing so I'm giving them a go with the Christmas stuff too. Mines being delivered to Christmas Eve. Supporting local business AND getting much, much better quality, for me is worth spending the extra £'sI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.

They're a cheap way to make a TV 'smart'. They can be used to put whatever you're watching on your tablet (for example) onto your TV, eg iplayer, Netflix etc.

That's my thoughts too, we've always had good (if not cheap) food from him, so that bodes well. I notice Lidl have a turkey advert implying theirs are free-range, but that's only their fancy-pants ones, not the standard range. It's just the money-saving part of my brain doesn't like spending more than I need to, but I'll be going with the logic of 'get what you pay for'. It also allows me to stop off at the next-door cheese counter for a few 'essentials' :whistle::drool::D0 -
