The Amazon throws upthread are out of stock - don't know whether to be pleased or not !

WUME · 05/12/2014 15:48

Just checked and Annabell is back up to £31.99 Sad

AuntieMaggie · 05/12/2014 15:50

When I looked yesterday at the amazon throw there were several fleecy blankets recommended at about £3 each too.

I just thought a letter from santa would be a nice keepsake for ds's first Christmas (he'll be 6 months ) or is that too much?

bettythebuilder National Trust shops often have purple lavender wheat pillows.

Marking my place. I'm finished but I'm doing Quidco bonus thing which need 4 shopping to unlock, so I'm hanging around. Nothing exciting no codes today.

NorksEnormous · 05/12/2014 15:57

Betty not sure if it would do but I bought a 'paint your own Santa' Russian doll set in home bargains for 3.99. They also had paint your own hello kitty ones for the same price

Someone asked about heat warmers. Saw a set of two in Sainsburys today reduced to £3 something

YaMasYaDaWithAWigOn · 05/12/2014 16:00

I think that's a lovely idea Maggie, I posted a link earlier where you could get a personalised one for 50p delivered. My DSis is getting one done for her DS who'll be 11 months at Christmas.

Fuzzy Felt Christmas Book for £3

RJnomore · 05/12/2014 16:43

Oh ffs I'm trying to buy a half price Paddington bath set on my iPad from m and s and the site is being a complete nightmare! Is it just me?

PickleMobile · 05/12/2014 16:51

I bought the artic throw this morning. So glad I did as it's now out of stock.

Good idea if anyone's is making your own reindeer food for Christmas eve, ive bought a small screw top jar and some christmas stickers from Homebase and some Asda smartprice oats. Just need some glitter now and I will have a reusable christmas jar for less than £6.

nocutsnobuttsnococonuts · 05/12/2014 16:53

the flying monkey things im sure u can buy in menkind or other gadget type shops more expensive though!!

Russian dolls - they had a nativity type one in tiger looked nice and was pretty reasonable Grin

Bettythebuilder I got a purple wheat/lavender hottie thing from the Works . I think it was £4, not a bad size. After searching for one for ages I randomly spotted them a few weeks ago.

temporaryusername · 05/12/2014 17:23

bettythebuilder they are online rather than in the shops but Toypost have Russian dolls from around £8 -

There may be some more bargainous 'on the ground', I'm not sure.

Café Press are doing up to 45% off apparel (clothing then) with APP45, they have a 20% off code on their website MERRY20, it doesn't seem to stack with the other if only clothing in the basket but might be worth a try stacking if you're getting anything else. Postage is £5.50 though which seems unacceptable!

Also I know their stuff is sometimes cheaper elsewhere but if anyone is getting something from Handpicked Collection try OCADO14 for 15% off.

tipsyloolah · 05/12/2014 17:33

I do admit knowing very little about ipads so I'm still asking the same daft questions as on an earlier thread probably . . . I think I need a 64GB one, but they seem HUGELY expensive. Are there bargains anywhere on those?

Also still looking for GHDs that are a pretty colour but around £80ish.

Do you think Monday will be good for deals as seems to be suggested in media? I'm running very far behind everyone else as I don't feel Xmassy at all Sad . . .

Tesco had offer on itunes cards today that may have already been mentioned - think it was 3 x £15 ones for £35.

tipsyloolah · 05/12/2014 17:35

That should have been asking about ipad minis Blush . . .

Cafe Press don't accept debit cards, only credit cards. I only realised this when I tried to checkout my (large) order Angry Their stuff looks nice, though.

AlmightyCitrus · 05/12/2014 18:15

Anyone having bother with their Yves Rocher orders? I got a letter saying that my payment couldn't be processed, rang up and gave them the card details again, got another letter, phoned again and gave them a different card, only to get yet another letter. I've had to send a cheque.
I've tried debit and credit cards.

Purplefrogshoes · 05/12/2014 18:18

Iwantoneofthose outlet on eBay have angry bird speakers £14.99 free delivery. I bought one of these last yeAr for £70 so it's a bargain
