Thread four already.

As previously, if you shot a link in the OP links isn’t working/no longer in date, please let me know by posting in bold so I can easily see to update Thanks

Ahem, I can’t actually remember if I updated the links from 2 threads ago. I think I have, but I’m not sure. If you spot any links that don’t work and you’ve already told me please tell me again in bold Thanks and sorry.

I've managed to get as far as half way through the last one (I know, I know, could do better) so if there's anything you think from the last thread that got missed off please let me know and I'll amend for next one.

I just thought I'd share some of my purchases from Aliexpress.

Credit card knife Not bad, not a strong knife, but sharp enough and fits in my wallet safely.

Elephant necklace and Peacock necklace You have to buy two of each design they seem to send one perfect and one cut very very slightly off, I'm still happy with both, even if DS2 broke the peacock one. And it has a $10 minimum order, lots in the shop.

I bought a selection of ribbons and elastics from this store. I got some lego ninja eyes, Frozen, superheros, peacock feathers, all very nice exactly how they look in the photos. Except the iron on patches, only fit for the bin. The elastic is very soft. Minimum $3 mixed order.

If you like slinky tops this is good up to size 16 and as a top, not a dress.

This Hulk mask is good, I got it a while ago from this seller for £2, I'd find a different seller now.

These stickers are nice, They do some huge ones of all sorts, but I'm impressed by the range of huge ones for childrens rooms, Frozen, superheros, etc.

GBBakeOffQueen Asked about buying shoes. I bought these boots and these shoes I wear a 6/39, after the boots I ordered the shoes in a 7/40. That's an American 9, so basically add 3.

I'm currently waiting for a belt , Some jewellery from this store, £6 for 7 things and more from this store things for £6.

I've bought dd the gruffalo baking set for £7 and a few cake moulds for a pound or so each.

elQuintoConyo · 08/08/2014 11:04

Nothing to add... but laughed out loud on the bus at preclit Christmas tree in the thread title Grin the mind boggles!

NorksEnormous · 08/08/2014 11:29

If anyone sees any imaginext batman bargains I would be eternally grateful! Smile

SuchSweetSorrow · 08/08/2014 11:40

does anyone know generally the best time to get lego deals? I managed to get some duplo bargains for christmas last year from amazon, think that was October time.

Or is it completely random? Grin

wigglesrock · 08/08/2014 11:51

Normsenormous - it's worth keeping an eye on Smyths. I don't think they've any big bargains at the minute but they usually will.

wigglesrock · 08/08/2014 11:52

Sorry Norks not Norms Smile

misstiredbuthappy · 08/08/2014 12:34

Ive just received the Smyths catalogue dd has been ticking the toys she NEEEDS Grin so she says !

Mrsgrumble · 08/08/2014 12:37

preclit tree is my mistake Blush

I was asking about a pre lit tree in the last thread.

Oops

Thanks reastie for all the links. I can't believe how organsied I am this year.

AllThatGlistens · 08/08/2014 13:21

Thanks Reastie Flowers

I'm also going to be on a hunt for good lego deals, was the Argos 3 for 2 on again in October last year? I got loads from that, have already got the older DC writing ideas down for me to start planning.

Definitely keep checking in on The Hut, they always have fabulous deals on, DH loves the stuff from there so it's easy to kit him out.

Aliexpress takes yonks - be warned!

22nd July and still waiting for Frozen dolls.

The only communication has been garbled half English message about delay in waiting Confused Hmm

Not sure I would buy from again tbh - too much uncertainty. Very hit and miss.
