And thanks to notmuchhaschanged too, knew I would miss someone! It seems it is unanimous for MUA, can't wait for them to come now.

I would get the 64gb one. I have the 16gb and there is no bloody room on the thing. Not many apps. Quite a lot of pics. Hardly any music. It's a bloody pain and I wish I'd got the bigger one as you can't really extend the storage. Grr.

Has anyone seen any good deals on fire tv? Or know if it's any good? Considering for my DH...

If anyone needs a snow glow elsa been emailed by The Entertainer that they have limited stock arriving into stores at 8am tomorrow in Wrexham, Lincoln, West Bromich and Sutton Coldfield. Looks like 48 dolls to each store at 35 each

Just bought this Orla Kiely bag for myself. It's current season and on OK website for £119. It's £62.60 on Amazon and extra 20% off I got it for £50.

Saw some really fun ( I would go so far as to say beautiful Grin) looking lollipops in Home bargain yesterday, like something out of Willy Wonkers Chocolate Factory, multicoloured, very glossy and a decent size, perfect for stockings or a display if you buy this kind of thing and only 29p each. They were on the normal confectionery aisle rather than the Christmas one in my local store.

happsymum · 06/12/2014 04:39

Any Ted Baker, Next or M&S codes floating around? and XBOXone points card bargains?

SOO stuck for my boyfriend this year! Keeping an eye out for ANY ideas bargains or not now... deep breaths Xmas Sad

Notmuchhaschanged · 06/12/2014 06:59

Purple get one for you too, they are amazing. They really build well as well and I can't tell the difference between that and Much more expensive ones

Nanny25 · 06/12/2014 07:36

Thanks for the ideas. Annuals might work if I can find ones that they would like. Flowers

insanityscratching · 06/12/2014 08:01

Beano or Dandy for a boy or girl over 8, Match for any football fan and then Disney Junior or Disney Princess for the five year old depending on boy/girlwould be my suggestions for annuals.

I need token gifts for three teenage girls, 13, 15 and 16. Was thinking about something soap and glory (3:2 in boots). Do girls like this?

Marmaladecat1 · 06/12/2014 08:10

Hi all, I'm looking for nice looking chocolates that aren't too expensive? Any ideas?

TheHoundsBitch · 06/12/2014 08:16

Ugh, I've just seen that you have to phone Beer52 to cancel this year. I hate speaking to people - I'm certain I only had to email to cancel last year.
bah humbug.

insanityscratching · 06/12/2014 08:16

Yes to soap and glory,body shop or lush for teenage girls.

Dd was given chocolates from M&S last year and everyone here enjoyed them.For me though Lindt are really nice.

TheFantasticMrsFox · 06/12/2014 08:19

TIPSY!!!!
Sorry to shout but before you cave in and buy a smaller memory iPad for a teenager, just don't!
We have two iPad minis here and both are full, or nearly so. Admittedly one belongs to 10yo DS so is rammed with free games and random photos but the older one is ours and we are much more conservative :o
Given the choice again (and assuming I could afford it) I would definitely buy the biggest memory I could as there are several things we are unable to do now without significant shuffling and deleting beforehand Hmm

Someone else was looking for touchscreen gloves, I don't recall who sorry. I popped into Sports Direct yesterday and they had a nice pair of Karrimor gloves for £6.99.

AnnaBegins · 06/12/2014 08:59

DirtyDancer That's lovely, how did you get the extra 20% off?

Waitingonasunnyday · 06/12/2014 09:09

Has anyone tried Equivalenza perfumes? They seem to be a high st shop selling 'copies that aren't classed as copies they just smell the same'. I think DH would like a new aftershave but knows it's not in budget so this looks like good idea if it's not crap. But I have v low sense of smell so am rubbish at perfume shopping!

Neeko · 06/12/2014 09:11

Thehoundsbitch. The people at Beer52 are lovely when you cancel. I hate phoning too and I managed fine. They will offer you a deal for another month but I was strong

Keepcalmanddrinkmulledwine · 06/12/2014 09:19

If anyone has time to seek out a particular item, I need some white converse hightops in a size 5 for DD1 as cheap as possible please.
Thanking you.

MsAspreyDiamonds · 06/12/2014 09:58
