How could that quote not make it to thread title!

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

I don't mind getting some for the US if they'll deliver! (I'll grab some pop tarts and twinkies while I'm there )

It's a silly thing to get sad over but it's something I used to do with my Mum and it makes Christmas ok for me iyswim...

My DP works for a huge American company... Maybe they'll send him some

Flsvourly deluxe box £7 plus delivery

local.amazon.co.uk/National-UK/B00O7UCMD2?ref_=site_more&cid=site_more

Just remember to cancel future deliveries.

pictures I got these Remington straighteners after my ghd died cos the reviews were so good. They are definitely just as good as the ghd. And much better price!

Groupon Frozen PJ Deal from £3.99 plus delivery of £1.99.

margaritas they have them in Smyth's but they're £8 each so not bargainous unfortunately

pictures try boots for straighteners, we've started doing a star gift on electrical too so would be worth keeping an eye on what's on offer there? I had some amazing babyliss ones for £30 last year, better than thee ghds I had to replace

Thanks admiral but they are not online. We live in rural Wales, so no smyths here

Titsalina you can get a pack of 4 delivered from Amazon.com for £50. Then you'd probably have to pay VAT and import duty. Definitely not a bargain but if money is no object go for it!

Had an email from The Book People- get £2.50 off a £20 spend or £4 off a £30 spend using code- BESTTREAT ends midnight tonight

Freedom, I posted a link to the baby annabell further up the thread but I just found this youtube video of the one that I'm going to get for DD. Looks so cute although I'm a bit worried about how much the woman seems to love her

Thanks Theonlypink - they do look a much better price

Admiral - I did look at the straighteners in Boots yesterday but got confused by the range of prices/types.

Dds hair dryer is Babyliss (from Boots last year). How do they compare to the Remington ones Theonlypink linked to.

Saw some Mark Hill ones in the Christmas section but wasn't sure about them.

I'm now a little worried about the toys from Ali Express. I've ordered plush ones, flying elsa, Anna dresses and the little figures. I will get rid of the figures but interested in people's views on the plush ones?

Frozen pyjamas from £3.99 looks good

Has anyone got any h&m codes please?

I have a Boots £5 off No7 skin care and £3 off No7 make up that I won't use and I can post it if anyone wants it?

Does anyone know if Happyland usually has more than 20% off?

I'd like to get the Fairy Boot for DD and it's currently reduced by 20%. Should I wait or get it now?

Also the dressing up stuff has 20% off too. Do they usually reduce further? Can you stack birthday codes with the reductions?

Tesco Direct: spend £75 and get £15 off. Enter TDXR-XNKM at the checkout. Ends 30/11

Yes please if you still have it will PM you but am on phone so not easy.

I've bought the plush dolls and the olaf.

I can't see how they are any different to the ones sold over here.

I think it depends on your own personal viewpoint about AliExpress.

I just feel uneasy as you can't be sure what safety checks and controls the factories that Ali Express sellers adhere to in order to churn out masses of these cheap plush and plastic toys in such huge volumes. And whether things like plastic tablewear/lunchboxes are BPA free?

Like I said before, I'm a terrible worrywart and always overly cautious

The £4 Frozen colouring in/activity tins are back in stock on Tesco direct.

Disney also churn out huge volumes at cheap prices. Yes there are guaranteed safety checks when selling in this country but don't fooled into thinking that because you're paying £20 for a doll its a quality item.

Its still cheaply made in huge volumes - Disney just massively mark the price up.

My plush dolls had Disney labels on them. They are just seconds.

Disney could easy sell them for this price and make a profit but why would they do that when they can flog them to us fools at triple the price?

Just spoken to a friend who's company buys from China and she thinks the aliexpress stuff should be fine, just give it a check over first. She works in quality control so do trust her judgement.

She looked at the bits I've bought (my Elsa) plush arrived with Disney store labels and said they are good quality and probably from the same factory the Disney stuff comes from.

I'll let you know when the plastic dolls arrive.
