Thread 6, where we all slurp drinks from the new Tassimo's whilst buying up the entire frozen stock from aliexpress

[Reastie]

New thread already. Uselessly not updated from last thread

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

Argh. That was supposed to say tewi not rewi.

Stupid autocorrect - I've never heard of the word rewi to suspect that autocorrect would even be thinking of changing it!!

:D

Sprinkles would be good - or glace cherries?

Some possible boy and man stocking fillers/school party pressies from Sports Direct - I'm using the superman/batman snoods for school pals, and footie supporter scarf and hat (in relevant team colours) for Xmas with money/voucher for nephews etc..

Apologies if the links don't show; I'm attempting the fancy-pants ones so will re-post if they don't work!

Batman snood £4

Superman snood £4

Supporter scarf £1.99-2.99

Supporter hat £2

tewi - or both. And squirty cream. (which autocorrect wanted to call squishy cream )

I love glacé cherries. They were always tightly rationed when I was little, saved for special things. When I went away to Uni one of the first food items I bought was my very own tub of glacé cherries to indulge whenever I wanted. Plus a tub of angelica which came out even more rarely than the cherries! Now I have the urge to go rummage in the cupboards to have a glacé cherry. Just because I can and because this thread has Reminded me of them and now I want one

I have lovely childhood memories of glace cherries for a treat.

I bought some to make a pineapple upside down cake recently and DH was properly horrified at me eating them out the jar. Apparently it's disgusting to eat them raw.

I made sure I shared plenty with the DC

TeWi THESE spoons are good if you are making up a few although almost £2 each.
THESE ones are just plain but ideal. I have also ordered them for tassimo lattes!

Christmas nail art now £2.99!! bought some last week and they were 48p

Oh really help ? . I think I'd only be enterprising if I actually did it myself [lazy]

Aww baby Sven, he's adorable!

I gave in and ordered the map book thanks to who posted about it.

I thought the book people were bound to have it cheap too so could get it later but it was something like £16.99 on there!

My coke has arrived today while I was at work in a bright red Coca-Cola box. I swiftly hid it when I came home but ds2 who has been home an hour longer keeps asking what the coke is for. Of course I've denied all knowledge of it

Thanks for the new thread.
Not been on for a couple of days. Hope there's some bargains left
My gloves and hats from the joules outlet came the other day. Really pleased with them so thanks to whoever sent me there.

Map books?
Can anyone link please?

The map books were these, not sure who linked them first, but they look lovely.

PM me your email and name (sorry) if you want one.

I've been on holidays for a week, it's been lovely to catch up!

I've ordered more zoology books for the present cupboard. The same author has an even BETTER book called Almost Everything, but it is not discounted... Thanks for the map book link, purchased for one of the dcs, have had my eye on it...

I've just found this one also, nice present, Especially for those not actually in London here

Thanks Norks, been thinking about getting an Olaf too. DS -I- would love a baby Sven. He's a bit reindeer mad as they have them at the farm near us and he says they are all called Sven. Even the ladies!
I'm giving him the DVD and hopefully a Sven for his birthday soon, and possibly putting an Olaf in a Christmas Eve hamper.

Thanks for the new thread

I've ordered these popcorn boxes, 8 for £1.49 to go in some 'movie night hampers' I'm doing for nieces and nephews.

Also, I was just doing an online food shop at Tesco and they are giving 25% off 6 bottles of wine. Thought it'd be good for either gifts or just for over Christmas or to enjoy whilst everyone else is running round like headless chickens in the run up and we're sitting with our feet up

Random request, but if anyone sees any county maps (mainly Staffordshire) really cheap, please could you send me the link as I need loads for some gifts that I'm making, ta Also, cheap hampers/boxes, and I know others are looking for those too, so I'll post if I find any cheap ones.

Found it Ipswich! Couldn't find it earlier as for some reson it's listed under adult sven, but it is actually baby sven. Here he is baby sven

We ordered them last Wednesday night so they took exactly one week to arrive

I totally forgot to say, if you're ordering from Isme (or anyone like that) remember to use click and collect to save delivery charges.

.

On phone so can't link but mango had some nice bags in their sale.

Hopeandstories how much map do you need for your gift? Im only asking as I did the little heart frames as a wedding gift and I used google maps and just printed them out. Dont know if thats any help?
