Morning all :)

I have a kindle in my basket, ready to go :o

Nice to see some Lego finally, but the sets aren't as good as last years by the looks of it :(

What will you have in your basket today?

Lala - If you want the Mr Men compare with The Book People. They have the full set for £30, plus there's 10% off today, and free postage. So £27 all in from them.

BrianAndHisBalls · 23/11/2012 10:24

think im going to stick to the nexus 7, thank you for your comments has helped Smile

Just checked email....yes the Playstation/Vita is listed, and the One Direction signed copy of their album. Kinda spoils the cryptic clues though!

I also had an email saying that I've won $500k on a BMW lottery....get in! Grin lol

My mum asked me to text her how much the Vax steam mop thingy was as she's at work.. it's in my basket for 4 more minutes so she better reply soon..

Not really impressed by much else.. plus I have about £3 until monday.. I've got to stop looking but it's so addictive!

NoSoggyBottoms · 23/11/2012 10:29

Fudgey I've been addicted all week and haven't bought a thing!

NoSoggyBottoms · 23/11/2012 10:31

£4.99 ... Ah well

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 23/11/2012 10:32

That took forever for the add to basket button to appear! Though not getting it as it's not £1 Grin

NoSoggyBottoms · 23/11/2012 10:33

Pratting Yep, took forever to get the button too!

FudgeyCookie · 23/11/2012 10:35

Steam mop gone from my basket now.. Can't believe that 57% have claimed the N Dubz tshirt Hmm

Soggy I'm really bad when it comes to bargains, if it's not enough of a discount I won't go for it and then I'll end up regretting it later on.. BUT it is stopping me go overdrawn Grin

I have the kindle app on my iPad. It's great, no need to connect to anything. I get some books on kindle, some on iBooks.

I bought DH the kindle for his birthday, in an impressive display of selfless oneupmanship he gave me the iPad for mine the next month. I win! But I guess depends what you use it for. DH reads on the train to work, plane, etc, and is usually carrying work laptop at same time. Kindle's smaller, lighter, easier to read one-handed (or in bed). I use my iPad as a laptop substitute eg now when feeding the baby or doing online grocery orders whilst supervising DD at the playground. When I get books, they're mostly cookery type ones...

Loulousmummy · 23/11/2012 10:40

Do I buy Emeli Sande or not. 5 minutes to decide. Hmm.

anklebitersmum · 23/11/2012 10:41

was I naughty to have basketed the big telly and then let it go? just got carried away in the 'can I bag one' moment Blush

SoupDragon · 23/11/2012 10:41

Took ages for the buy button to appear on the Panasonic TV offer. I'm on the Waitlist but it's not that much more expensive elsewhere TBH.

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 23/11/2012 10:41

Well my light wand and little mix cd have arrived (it's not signed, they've drawn features on themselves like glasses and a beard Hmm). Was hoping it'd be my fly boots as it says they're out for delivery. Hope they come later so I can wear them tonight.

anklebitersmum · 23/11/2012 10:41

oh I bought it..Dad's getting her for X-mas Grin

Marne · 23/11/2012 10:44

I bought the wii u-draw as i chickened out last time, was going to buy it on zavvi but it said 'delivery up to a month' so payed the exta pound to get it today Smile. Looks like today could be an expensive day.

Dontbugmemalone · 23/11/2012 10:44

Ah I just bought the Sat Nav. I can't decide if it's a good investment or not. We have one but it's 4 years old and it's not great, it's very hard to find software to update it. If you're on a newly built road, then it just shows a white space.

So far Ive bought: Canon camera, bench hat set, trunki suitcase and the sat nav. I also want to buy the chuggington dvd set.

I'll be scared to check my bank account at the end of the month. Blush

anklebitersmum · 23/11/2012 10:46

I had the Philips hostage soup Blush

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 23/11/2012 10:48

Ooh I must be lucky today. As soon as I posted my last message there was a knock on the door with 2 big boxes. Containing my fly boots (which hoorah! they do fit up my fat legs just) and my food processor. Happy :D

anklebitersmum · 23/11/2012 10:48

The tomtom is brilliant Dontbugme and even a dinosaur like me can update it

ImpYCelyn · 23/11/2012 10:48

Can't believe Indy is £30, and gone so fast!

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 23/11/2012 10:49

It's like Christmas!! And the cat is playing in the boxes. Happy all round in the pratting household Grin until dh looks at his bank statement

anklebitersmum · 23/11/2012 10:51

Grin at until dh looks at bank statement

Dontbugmemalone · 23/11/2012 10:53

thanks for the reassurance anklebitersmum. I'm sure you're not a dinosaur :)
Do you have the voice recognition thingy? Is it easy to use?

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 23/11/2012 10:53

Grin Now where to hide the boxes...
