To buy an unplanned pricey toy for DC just because i found it so cute...

[DogCalledRudis]

Well, not that pricey, just £13. Its a Toothless dragon action figure...

if you can afford it, and the child isn't in danger of becoming a brat go for it.

Which one and how old is your child? We have a soft toy dark blue one and it has wire in its wings which has poked through. Just to be aware.

I would buy toothless.

for me

Im going to buy woody from toy story at the weekend for ds3. Its £25 but hes wanted one for ages and I havent been able to find one in the charity shops or fb

Please please please say its bear factory ad it's back in.... DC1 is begging for one!

Can anyone do a link please ? I'm curious to what a toothless dragon looks like.

I've just looked on Amazon. I want one. YANBU.

I LOVE buying unplanned crap for my kids. It's a good thing!

I was looking for a non-princessey duvet cover for dd (2.8) Intending to spend £20 tops. Spent £60! Because it's cute and I didn't like anything else at all.

I often treat my kids just 'because'. I indulged my DD2's Loom band addiction when I was in The Works earlier, she's not spoilt and I don't think a tenners worth of small elastic bands is going to cause a problem

But cute?

I bought an impromptu rocking horse for £150. I think you're safe.

DD really, really wanted a Toothless. My generous side (and the fact I wouldn't mind one myself) said yes, my Puritanical / devious side used it as a means to get DD to help with the housework.

You could split a chart into x squares and get your DC to do a chore x times - at the end of it they can 'earn' their Toothless. Which you have bought and hidden.

Depends on the age of your DC of course, but both sides of me felt quite happy with that arrangement.

I'm spoiling the dds rotten at the moment with Frozen things. They're so rare that when I spot something I grab it. Their birthdays are at the beginning of Jan so it's ages to wait until an official reason to give them things. I know I'm probably turning them into awful brats but the looks on their faces is worth it.

got my daughter a frozen duvet cover from next, my defense, all her covers are hand me downs from her brother

We got DS a cuddly toothless toy from Build A Bear which he adores. Bought on impulse whist out shopping, doesn't hurt to spoil him once in a blue moon as long as it's not every week!

It is for you really

I think if you buy something and your dc loves it and appreciates it it's a lovely thing to buy them something just because.

I just went into town to buy some loom bands, and ended up getting a kit with loom, 2,000 bands etc. It was nice, too expensive, gave it to dcs, very happy people.

It is nice to treat.

Not at all. I love treating my DC.
