My maxi micro arrived today from Austria ( sportgigant.at). It's in perfect condition so very pleased. It was ordered Friday evening, shipping email received on Monday. I would order from them again.

iloveholidays here is the Anna dress on aliexpress. It is the blue one with pink cape

AnnaDress

Elsa doll at Amazon - £16.99 plus free deliv

Despite us trying to put her off cos we think they creepy DD is insistent she wants the Anna and Elsa toddler dolls so I'll be interest on how others get on with them from aliexpress

Baa, just got the baby Sven. I tried but, couldn't resist he's just too cute.

Fab thanks Holly. Can I ask what the sizing like? I have an average 5 year old and a tiny 3 year old. Thanks again.

Has anyone ordered barbie-type Anna/Elsa dolls from Aliexpress? I've seen lots of posts about toddler dolls & soft plush ones but am struggling to find any about the hard plastic type - could be me being useless though! DD is embarking on a Frozen obsession and I just know they will be top of the Christmas list... failing bargainous Far East option, any other recommendations for where to buy nice ones?

platespinner I wasn't that impressed with the selection of aliexpress Elsa and Anna plastic dolls. The faces were quite different and they really looked like fakes (IMO).

Methenyou I'm afraid it is only girls clothing, I think a boys range would be gorgeous too!

Hollyben, the plush toddler dolls on aliexpress from shen yuan's store are brilliant quality and have disney store labels and tags on. If I hadn't ordered them myself I wouldn't know the difference. Hth

Beer 52 is a monthly beer case of 8 bottles of beer from microbreweries around the world with tasting notes & a little brochure about the breweries. It's mostly British beers with some American & Dutch. I think they're trying to branch out to other areas though. Where we live in NI there not a lot of nice beer shops or much variety in the supermarket, so great to have this option

Check out beer52.com, (though if you want to sign up pm me as there's a rec a friend deal where we'd both benefit-u get £10 off the first box & if I rec 3 people I get a box free). Only mentioned as my dh is super hard to buy for & he actually does air fist pumps when the monthly box arrives. It's £24 per month & often with a little bonus thing like a free can or crisps etc. I usually try the beer & even though I'm a wine drinker, it's great quality & delicious stuff! No affiliation other than a happy customer!

Thank you wigglesrock, will do. Forgot Mothercare do toys!

I would prefer the plush dolls, but DD is insistent it has to be the toddler one. And she is a 3 and a half year old with an opinion!! Though I guess santa might think she'd prefer soft ones....

re dress sizing. I order us5. DD is a tall 3.5. It looks like it will fit her, but not sure there is a load of growth room in it

Have any of you ordered fancy dress costumes (kids) from Aliexpress with S/M/L/XL sizing?

I'm just in the process of adding halloween costumes to my wishlist to order next week but have no idea what to order for my 11-12 clothes wearing dd

Was going to go with M for my four year old, I should be able to alter if not right.

Anyone able to advise me?

Klaxon!!!!! Is there something wrong with aliexpress??? Have we broke it? Ut is coming up zero results for every item? Anyone else have this problem. Having palpitations here

Mine's working Atlantic have been flitting from here, to there and amazon all evening

If you're looking on your mobile Atlantic, try closing down and going back in again (and re-logging on). It was going the same for me earlier!

Atlantic i'm having exactly the same problem with Ali express.

Marking place. Thanks reastie. Thank you to those who replied about the best postal service to go with, will look into those recommendations .

I fell off this thread at about thread 4!

But I am back!

So far have bought books and preorded disney infinity 2 for my elder two, little one also has book as well as some elc bits and bobs

I had decided that the zoo ology book was too young for my 6 andc4 yo so decided to give it as a present to someone else. They saw me wrapping it so we sat own to have a look and they loved it!

Plum Paradiso Cocoon Playhouse

Asda selling it for £98

Argos selling it for £99.99

Amazon selling it for £31.43

Thanks so much for the Belle and Boo link. Have bought a beautiful but totally impractical dress

Oh sorry Holly, I didn't read your message properly. The hard toddler dolls look so cute... I may have a look at some of the feedback to see what they say... even though I've bought too much already....
