I went to Asda this morning to have my flu jabs but while I was there picked up some of the £25 lego as well as some very reduced toys (see pic). Tabletop football and air hockey for £3.75 each, scooters and balance bikes for £6.25 each and things to turn your shoes into heelies for £2.50.

It's a shame you can't edit posts as I should probably have included this in the OP but:

To do clicky links you do this put link in here then a space then the name or phrase you want to go with the link . Don’t put a space between the start of the link or the last word next to the like I have or it won’t work but I had to to demonstrate.

I've ordered a few of the lower value bargains as they appear on this thread then kind of forget until they arrive and not sure who I'm ordering the bits for. Bit more discipline needed.

Someone posted a link to this thread thread in the old one so I filled it up to 1k.

Now the post with the link seems to have disappeared (unless it's just my phone!)

So sorry if it has disappeared but I swear I saw it!! Blush

I can’t better the Vulcan, but a couple more suggestions for very old relatives:

Twiddle Muff (sorry about the name but it is a good product)
www.alzproducts.co.uk/twiddle-cat-chocolate

Photo blanket (have used Truprint but I am sure others are good too).

Not cheap but the quality is good:

Just went on a rare trip to the shops. Got some hot chocolate bombs for stocking fillers from home bargains. And found some just gorgeous little food savers from Lidl £1.99 love em. Also something I did for my Mum who I lost 3 years ago, was get her name added onto a new lifeboat. She always loved and supported the lifeboats and I know she would be so proud to have her name on one, so sorry can't seem to get a tag for it but it's Lifeboats Launch A Memory. The new lifeboat will be launched at Wells on Sea
