Was looking for quotes for next thread and the plop up one from elvish made me Grin

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.

These were posted last year on this thread and were great little stocking fillers

They still work fine (original batteries) and DDs love them!

WildFlowersAttractBees · 02/10/2014 08:24

My snow glow elsa has yet to arrive too. Also has anyone received their 'key' bottle openers? Apparently mine were dispatched on the 3rd of September but no sign of them!

checking back in - dropped off the wagon for a few threads! Lots to catch up on!

Tesco Direct have Zhu Zhu Pets Top Trumps for 50p

(no good for anyone I'm buying presents for but saw them on the website and thought of you all!)

RJnomore · 02/10/2014 08:45

Hasn't it been round about now that Marie Claire has had the molton brown voucher for the last few years?

WildFlowersAttractBees · 02/10/2014 09:14

Yes RJ, normally by school October week.

MooseyMoo · 02/10/2014 09:16

Just looking at Lidl's special offers and they have draft excluders for £3.99 - one is a reindeer

They've also got some baking moulds in Stars and Christmas trees for £2.49

Book People deal today is a flash sale - there's a nice Usborne Christmas decorations book and a few doodle books too which are great for stockings or party presents, all on the last couple of pages. Loads of other stuff too obviously! Not sure if there are any codes around at the moment?

PumpkinsMummy · 02/10/2014 10:08

For the poster looking for the old style LPS (sorry can't remember your name), have you tried the online oxfam shop? They sell retro toys on there, not particularly cheap but cheaper than collectors. They didn't have any when I looked but had old style my little ponies and furbies so worth keeping an eye out.

QuietNinjaTardis · 02/10/2014 10:41

I've signed up for the weekend box deal, thanks chica looks like a good idea. Probably won't carry on the subscription but will be a nice treat for ds for a few weeks.

SNOW GLOW ELSA

I spoke to Amazon the other day about the ones from the link i put up.

They are waiting for stock to come in but everyone who ordered one will get one, so dont panic. You should get a dispatch email between the 10th and 24th of October :)

JerseySpud · 02/10/2014 11:07

Baby Annabell Moves for £19.99 down from £29.99

Elvish · 02/10/2014 11:18

Duzz I'm on the look out for HTTYD stuff too. DD wants the Toothless that breaths fire and I'd like to get it for less that the RRP of £35! I'm sure she will NEED a Hiccup too - although we do have one from the Happy Meals a few months ago.

My 90p faux fur throw has arrived today, it's lovely and furry and I'm considering keeping it for myself. I wish I'd ordered 2 as they are now £30 Sad

The light up bath toy dolphin has arrived too, much smaller than I was expecting (smaller than the palm of my hand) but I'm sure it will make DS happy and it was 71p so can't complain.

Elvish · 02/10/2014 11:33

Prizepudding did you see that advent calender in store? It looks great but there's a £3.45 delivery charge online and I can't find a pick up from store option?

MissRainbowBrite · 02/10/2014 11:44

Our Home Bargains have the Peppa Pig deluxe playhouse for £17.99, cheapest I've seen it anywhere.

I forgot my Ali Express password, got a new one emailed, turns out Ali is part of Alibaba.com which means I've been pronouncing it wrong the whole time (I've been saying it like A-lie rhymes with pie)

Not a bargain, as you were

WildFlowersAttractBees · 02/10/2014 12:12

Hope where did you get the nails inc sets?

iloveholidays · 02/10/2014 12:15

Thank you Jersey I have my first present for DD3!!! Grin We have a few babies but all well used and she doesn't have her own as such. its her birthday in November too but have a couple of bits for that.

I'm still debating whether to buy the asda wooden toy shop/cafe. do asda ever do promotions on things like that? I want an offer to force me to make the decision!!!! :)

iloveholidays · 02/10/2014 12:30

Can anyone recommend any cheap festive pyjamas please? I have 3 girls and would prefer different ones if possible. I'm tempted by the mothercare ones but think there are only 2 options.

Thank you!

Gatekeeper · 02/10/2014 13:00

I've just ordered 4 of these for dd's friends; they are all potty about anime and kawaii stuff. I've bought little bits to put inside (all wrapped individually) such as notelets, stickers, nail foils etc and will wrap the bag up as well

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 02/10/2014 13:23

My dd obsessed with picnics. Has anyone seen a really cheap picnic basket?
