Blue Kangaroo plush toy being searched for high and low!

Does anyone have the plush toy that came with a gift set that they don't want? DD ADORES Blue Kangaroo and Tesco took my order but tell me that they don't know when or if they'll ever have it in. DD's birthday is less than 2 weeks away now..........

Can't recall what options there are for mail... am sure there's a relatively cheap option for sending a parcel by first class but getting it signed for at other end, adding a little to basic postage.... Do what you think is best and let me know costs

They were £10.99 but don't think the postage will be much,will send it 1st class if that's ok. I won't need to do recorded delivery will I or would you rather?

MilaMae · 28/05/2008 19:23

Figured I'll e-mail all the postage and price when I've posted it. I reckon if I post it tomorrow you'll get it in time for dd's birthday

The woman in MW was drooling over them,said they'd probably only stayed in stock as they were kind of forgotten on a very high shelf above the books so we were v lucky!!!!!!

Yeah but you must tell us how much we owe you including p&p and which account we can deposit money in, you didn't say in your email. Maybe you're waiting till you see how much p&p is....

Sorry to be so impatient, but I don't you to be out of packet for a second longer than you have to!

Your name is going up in lights on MN, what a star!!!!!

Anyhow just in the process of e-mailing you so I can post them tomorrow.

Hope you get this.

MilaMae, have you emailed yet? Cos I've not received anything if you have. Sometimes I just don't trust emails to go so thought I'd better check.

I was a bit annoyed that they didn't let me know earlier cos I placed an order over £15 to get free P&P. Obviously without the gift set I no longer qualify and would have cancelled the order as I can get those books locally, therefore not paying P&P...... But what the heck, I've got bigger things to worry about (today's been a bad day).

At least MilaMae has moved heaven and earth to help us and that puts a smile back on my face

Me too Ruby, Tesco have cancelled that part of my order and dispatched Happy Birthday Blue Kangaroo and Eliza & The Moonchild, so we WILL have the birthday book for the birthday girl!

thanks MilaMae, i've still been looking in case I get lucky and can save you the hassle but still no joy...

But, you're our saviour so there you go!

I know about the birthday book too, will probably get it for dd, have been hogging the various titles the library has and getting them again and again. Dd can even 'read' the books to me as she knows them so well now!

Hi Ruby no problems a cheque would actually be better if that's ok.

Klaw dp was fine re the bank details so I'll e-mail them to you, I'd forgotten paypal fees. Can you put your e-mail up ASAP then if I get it before Wed I can post it sooner.

Did you both know there is a new Happy Birthday Blue Kangaroo book. DD got it out from the library this week and adores it!!!!!!!!! Very pink

OK, then you'll need to email me your Paypal account details and how much I owe you including P&P, not forgetting that Paypal take their chunk.... (which is why I've paid direct into accounts) I don't know how much they take will need to look into that. I'm getting so excited at the thought of seeing DD's face when she sees her very own Blue Kangaroo!

Obviously I will provide Postal address on email, rather than here.

oh dear, I don't have a cheque book.... It's simple to put money into someone's account, you need sort code and account number to put money in but I can't get any money out. I do it every now and again....

what about paypal, do you have a paypal account I could put it in?

OP posts:
MilaMae · 22/05/2008 20:33

A check will be fine,dp might strangle me if I e-mail our bank account details (he doesn't get Mumsnet)

I'll send it 1st class as soon as I can, so all being well. Fingers crossed it all goes to plan.

Oh MilaMae, you're a complete and utter star!

Email me with bank account details so I can transfer money including P&P direct to your acount.

Tell your MW they've got fabulous customer service and MN will be sending shoppers in their droves to give them custom at this rate!

IF you can get posted ASAP after you get them I might just have it in time for the 2nd June, dd's birthday!! but anytime is better than none

Ok just rang she's holding another and will hold them both until Wed, we'll do the zoo Wed(it's got a new croc swamp and we go past MW)-
