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

If I’ve missed anything good from any last threads onto the list please let me know.

I've been a bit rubbish and not updated from last thread. But things are settling down for Christmas now so I'm working on the basis it's more a share of sales bits coming up/how the presents went down on the big day.

Whoever it was who was looking there is a post on HDUK 3 minutes ago saying Argos has snow glow elsa in stock now....

frankie80 · 18/12/2014 22:47

cookie - its not available for delivery and nearest store that has one is too far away. :(

Jenni2legs · 18/12/2014 23:12

Hi All,

Thanks for the threads Reastie, they have been amaze!

Has anyone ordered from H&M recently? I ordered on 14th, had dispatch email on 15th, but when I track (three days later) it's just saying 'order generated' and 'We expect your shipment information soon.' should I give up hope for Christmas delivery?
-it's our xmas eve pyjamas, but they are not festive so they will keep.

SparklyReindeerShit · 18/12/2014 23:31

Cookie - thank you so much! Fingers crossed I manage to sneak a snow glow before Christmas Smile

Jenni - I've always found the tracking comes up literally on the day of delivery or possibly a day before. It can take two weeks for delivery though so might not make it in time Sad

SparklyReindeerShit · 18/12/2014 23:40

Too late reservations been cancelled Sad

The Maps book by Aleksandra Mizielinska and Daniel Mizielinski (which I've been waiting for a reduction on and had pretty much given up as no go) has just been reduced to £7.50 on Amazon. Not sure how long for, I guess there is some bonus to being awake at this ungodly hour.

Neeko · 19/12/2014 06:47

Eustacia a zelf, a monster high doll or one of those swimming mermaids or a robo fish? A book or a jewellery box?

Joycey29 · 19/12/2014 07:21

Not a bargain but got two snow glow Elsas for daughter due to duplicate gift.
Would like £40 as that's what I paid.
Can do postage as you want.

If not I'll EBay it :)

EustaciaVye · 19/12/2014 07:22

Thanks neeko. no idea what zelf or robo fish are so will google...

Neeko · 19/12/2014 07:31

Robo fish really swim when you put them in water. I think zelfs were known as trolls when we were young.
Those brain box games also som in around your budget and are suitable from age 7. I've bought the Roald Dahl and The World ones for dd1 who is 8. I got both at sainsburys. I bought our zelf and mermaid at Tesco.

ChristmasJumperWearer · 19/12/2014 07:45

I'm signing off now. Thanks Thanks Thanks Reastie and all for another wonderful year.

This is my third year on these threads (under various names) and I got my shopping sorted extra-early this year not least because I had stuff leftover from last year [hormones emoticon]. The Ali Express Frozen dresses will, I hope, go down well, and too many other things to mention.

One more parcel to collect, and that's for me, the Boots No 7 Star Gift set. Grin

Happy Christmas bargain-hunters!

GodReastieMerryGentlemen · 19/12/2014 08:19

I just remembered I ordered a personalised print (thanks to another thread) but have not got a frame for it yet... a wee trip to Matalan after the school run for me!

RoaringBaubles · 19/12/2014 09:29

oops twitched! thanks for the Map book tip off.
Thanks to everybody again this year, just need to wrap it all now but my bottle of Baileys will assist me.

imip · 19/12/2014 09:44

Thanks above for the maps and Animalium books, the Animalium book is also a top-rated book at the mo.....

Large Sainsburys in Cobham had several Snow Glow Elsa. Other Saisnburys may well have them.

Hello, wondering if anyone can help me with a last minute quest? Forgot my dd had asked for some clothes for her favourite toy monkey. She asked for a 'smart suit' but I think anything would do. Trouble is he's not very big so wouldn't fit build a bear stuff. It's this one: <a class="break-all" href="http://www.stuffedanimals.com/mobile/product.aspx?ProductCode=ty03226&404;www.stuffedanimals.com:80/product_p/ty03226.htm=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.stuffedanimals.com/mobile/product.aspx?ProductCode=ty03226&404;www.stuffedanimals.com:80/product_p/ty03226.htm=
-only a lot thinner cos he's been loved so much-
