Casually browsing market place and came across these "pamper baskets" for £12.50 each...

Tampons aren't my idea of a pamper, neither is toothpaste and deodorant! GrinGrin

Also there's a glass but no prosseco?

Anyone else got any goodies they'd like to share?

Dear lord, that vacuum cover of the elongated fox in a 1970s evening dress ... like Abigail's Party on acid.

I assumed the dummies were used, & that's why the teats had been removed - health & safety etc.

No idea what use they are now.

Beldon · 10/08/2020 12:37

The person selling the dummies must think you can buy packs of teats, similar to bottles. Crazy.
We have a lot of posts of people selling microwaves/TVs etc ‘doesn’t work but good for spares and repairs’ - then some ridiculous price attached.

The boxes over lockdown have baffled me. Don’t know if anyone is actually buying them or if someone is sitting with a mound of tat they can’t get rid off. We have had all sorts from children’s boxes, garden party, cakes, sweets, meat packs. All with no sign of it being an actual registered business and no food hygiene certificates.

suzuki650 Oh man, novelty dog shit!
12 quid???

What's a "childrens chilie" - do I want to know?

YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet · 10/08/2020 12:46

@EmbarrassingAdmissions and a Mumsnet chicken. That's dinner sorted for the next six weeks.

@VeryLittleOwl

Those pictures are hilarious!
I could barely understand the second screenshot you posted. The SPAG makes it almost unreadable. Surely one of the 3 designers can construct a sentence?!?

Anniversary brick anyone?

and the peak of my evening - putting a tampon in.

But remember ladies, you've gotta get 'em UP there!

@VeryLittleOwl

Cheer yourself up during lockdown by winning a photoshoot of your small child being devoured by a shark.
The only things worse than that picture are the spellings in the post...

Bits not bots!!

whoami24601 · 10/08/2020 18:16

DD is obsessed with dolls and would buy those dummies! She'd put a magnet on them for her dolls that can't fit the teats in their mouths. So no totally useless!

soberfabulous · 10/08/2020 18:28

I am crying at these, thank you! The comment on the pamper boxes: "are these to take into prison" sums them up nicely Grin

QuestionableMouse · 10/08/2020 18:50

I can't find it again but I saw an advert this morning for hand drawn pictures of people. Okay, some people like that sort of thing.

But every one looked like they'd had some kind of stroke. It was horrible and funny at the same time.

msflibble · 10/08/2020 19:55

....Dog shit for sale?
How? Why?

whoami24601 · 10/08/2020 21:13

@msflibble passive aggressive I assume?

flyingspaghettimonster · 10/08/2020 22:29

I found this beautiful dollhouse while browsing my marketplace. $4,200, so well out of my reach. But the bathroom had me doing a double take! 🤣🍆😮

FooFighter99 · 10/08/2020 22:40

Saw this and about died laughing! 4 fucking tea bags!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The resemblance to Judy Garland is uncanny. It can't just be me who see it?
