If anyone has Spongebob mad DC like mine, I've just bought the 50cm Spongebob plush from B&M for a lovely £8.99 each!

They're currently £15.00 down from £20.00 each in Argos so a good steal.

Early learning centre had some pretty good discounts on dress up costumes this morning - picked up super man and buzz light year for £2 each. Might be in-store only. Hope it helps!

Some nice Kawaii Crush things at Home Bargains (my dd loves these), the Hyper Happy Mall is £9.99 (£24.99 at Amazon) and the Waterpark Playset is £5.99. Individual characters are £1.99 (usually about £6) Smile.

Waaa! That asda kitchen is already out of stock! It's perfect for DS1's birthday too :(

PfftTheMagicDraco · 06/09/2014 13:40

I've caved and given AliExpress a go.

Gone for the set of Minecraft keyring type things - the ones you get in the blister packs here, and also a set of two plush Frozen dolls. Each came in under the customs £15, and they were both significantly cheaper than they would be over here, so I have my fingers crossed!

3pigsinblanketsandasausagerole · 06/09/2014 14:05

Check again it's in stock for me about to order!

3pigsinblanketsandasausagerole · 06/09/2014 14:05

Oh no it's just gone out of stock for me too!
Argh!

KnackeredMuchly · 06/09/2014 14:12

Really like the look of the Asda kitchen/workshop etc. Thanks for sharing

SpottyTeacakes · 06/09/2014 14:20

I'm sure they will get more. The same thing happened with ours I think you can get email alerts.

lucysmam · 06/09/2014 14:27

Just back from town, got some make your own candy necklaces in Home Bargains for 79p (you know like the bracelets you can get with sweetie beads) Smile . They sold out super fast last time but might be worth a look.

Ive been to morrisons today, they have their tins of roses/celebrations/heroes/quality street/haribo/swizzles in and all for two for £8 mix and match ( my local ones doesn't actually have the haribo yet but they are listed)

I need your help too please - I've eposted on chat too but as you lot are so good what can I get for four ten year old girls as a party bag present for this Friday?

I like the £2 purses from primark, will go get them, have frozen bubbles and obivously a bit of cake - any other good ideas I can get here in time for Friday?

I think I paid 2.50 for these kids Polar Gear tiger re-useable drinks pouches earlier in the year. They are 50p each at Wilko (free collection in store) and handy stocking fillers.

minecraft key rings already sold out I will have to keep looking!

Can I ask for a guide to Frozen dolls please, we have no disney shop anywhere near by and I am unclear what the difference is between a toddler doll and a plush doll, what kind of size is reasonable or normal for a disney?
thanks

TrixieLunamoon · 06/09/2014 15:57

Thanks KEGirl for the thorntons hamper link, it's perfect for PILs who have everything already but eat loads of sweets.

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 06/09/2014 17:24

Hmm...I'm a bit concerned that I've ballsed up the frozen/Anna dress order...they were dispatched the day after ordering but 6w later I've just realised they haven't turned up...argh!!

Scaredycat3000 · 06/09/2014 18:00

So long as your timer hasn't run out you can open a dispute and get your money returned. They send two emails reminding you that the time is nearly up, but you can check by opening your order.

50ShadesofXmas · 06/09/2014 18:28

Does anyone know where the cheapest place I can get Frozen on DVD? Dniece wants it and it's £15 in asda!!!

RJnomore · 06/09/2014 18:39

Has anyone seen frozen napkins anywhere?

sweetkitty · 06/09/2014 18:44

Clarinet - toddler dolls are hard plastic baby dolls, they are of the princesses as well toddlers, they are about 25cms high off the top of my head. The plush ones are soft like teddies, they are of them as adults, they are bigger about 40cms. Then you have the Barbie sized ones (can you tell we have the 3 lots in this house?)

Was surprised to see how quickly the Asda kitchen sold out and then noticed it listed on HDUK so it made sense! I saw this Lovely Asda wooden play shop & cafe for £35.
