Snow Glow Elsa can be found on the bargains thread for £28 rather than £40

[JerseySpud]

In all seriousness i do think alot of these things will be forgotten by easter though.

[Kelly281]

I had a look at Xeno when I was last in Toys R Us and I really feel sorry for parents who will be parting with £80 for it this year. It didn't seem to do anything!

DD is getting 3 of the toys from the list this Christmas, luckily those in the lower price ranges! Elsa and the Barbie handbag look really quite good from inside the boxes. The leapband I'm not sure, but it's what she's been asking for...

[almamatters]

My DD wants the Leapband, but my DS wants the stomp and chomp grimlock - £90!!!!! I think not!

[cazza2878]

Yeah I just copied and posted and some included the RRPs- The skating Elsa & Anna dolls are also down to £23.16 on Amazon currently.

My friend Cayla is also £60 everywhere not £75 as Hamleys have stated.

Anyone found a good deal on the sew cool sewing machine? Would like to get it for niece.

[JiltedJohnsJulie]

Sweet the cheapest I've seen it is at amazon for £27.99

[JustAShopGirl]

sew cool is not great...

it is not sewing for a start, it just punches needles in to try to "felt" the 2 sides together - which means when you stuff it that it can pop apart unless you go round a few times. If you try to push the fabric through, it bends the needle and it breaks, if you don't push it through enough, it can all bunch up, plus the fact you have to keep the button pressed at the same time... and it eats batteries....

[JiltedJohnsJulie]

Think you've just talked me out of it shop. The refill sets seem hugely expensive too.

[AlPacinosHooHaa]

I saw a pretty cool sewing machine for 28 on the this morn slot.

[AlPacinosHooHaa]

silly me didnt read thread. its crap.

[Homebirthquestion]

The YouTube videos of it look good. The ones where someone does it themselves. He pulled it apart but it took some effort and he just went over it again. He also used normal felt instead of the refill and it worked fine.

We shall see!
