The weather may be getting colder, but there’s still so much you can do in November. With brilliant new movies, shows and books to enjoy, indoor attractions to experience, and even outdoor adventures to be had, you needn’t be bored in the run-up to Christmas.

What’s more, Boundless members can benefit from huge savings while taking part in these activities. Here, we’ve rounded up some of the best deals you can access this month. Calendars at the ready…  

1. Enjoy a big-screen blockbuster 

Napoleon, from 22 November, save up to 37% through The Cinema Society 

If you’re a fan of historical movies, then a trip to the cinema to see Ridley Scott’s new blockbuster Napoleon is a must. This epic film charts the life and times of French military commander Napoleon Bonaparte (played by Joaquin Phoenix), from his rise to power to his volatile relationship with Empress Joséphine (Vanessa Kirby). With action, drama and romance in spades, Napoleon is sure to be a front-runner at next year’s Oscars.   

Boundless members get free access to The Cinema Society, enabling you to save up to 37% on movie tickets, snacks and drinks at their local multiplex. Now, that’s what we call an epic deal! 

2. Explore an underwater kingdom 

Aquariums nationwide, daily, save up to 50% through Kids Pass

Even better, Boundless members can get great discounts on entry to Britain’s best aquariums through the free Kids Pass subscription available to all members. So, you can save money while having a whale of a time. 

3. Celebrate Guy Fawkes Day in style

Houses of Parliament tour packages, daily, 20% off through Virgin Experience Days

Had Guy Fawkes and his pals not been thwarted in 1604, then the Houses of Parliament probably wouldn’t exist today. As it is, they still stand imperiously alongside the Thames – and you can take a guided tour of these historic government buildings through Virgin Experience Days. There’s a choice of packages on offer, all of which include a river cruise and either a lunch or an afternoon tea at a nearby hotel.  

Whichever one you fancy, be sure to make the most of your Boundless membership, which will give you 20% off a wide range of activities available through Virgin Experience Days.

8. Plant some new shrubs 

Get up to 20% off purchases on the Kew Gardens website

November is when bare-root deciduous shrubs, hedging plants and trees become available to buy – you’ve got between now and March, as these plants will be on sale while they’re dormant through the winter months. It’s an ideal time to plant roses. As ever with gardening, it pays to think ahead, whether you’re looking to fill a border or a container – you’ll thank yourself next year.

While you’re in green-fingered mode, the Kew Gardens online shop has plenty of tools to help with winter pruning, plus garden ornaments and pots to help you create your own unique outdoor space.

9. Do some festive baking

Get money off supermarket shopping with reloadable discount cards

Fancy making your own Christmas pudding? Why not do it on Stir Up Sunday, a centuries-old tradition in which each member of the family is encouraged to take a turn in stirring the pud before it’s put in the oven. Taking place on 26 November this year, it’s the perfect way to bring people together and get everyone in the mood for the forthcoming festivities. 

With a Boundless membership, you can save money on supermarket shopping with reloadable discount cards, enabling you to keep your bills low and your spirits up! 

10. Read the new Jack Reacher novel
