FOOTNOTES
+ prices and post are manually written. Prices can change at any time at the retailers’ websites, and cannot be updated automatically here
+ to keep this easier to read and easier to edit, expired offers will be removed. In previous years I kept them at the bottom and that created an even longer and sprawling text-mess 🙂
Thanks for doing this!
