So lets try and fill this one instead :D

Just ordered the imaginext ambulance and police car which was also reduced - thanks durham, and the Spider-Man wall decals for DS1 since he's now decided he wants a Spider-Man/Avengers bedroom - thanks Mrs

Doing well so far. Got a fair bit in for Christmas already, and both DC's birthdays later this year. Just got the tumbling talking Stuart minion for £37 from Smyths. Seems to be about £50 everywhere else.

I'm so glad I had a nosey on here. Just pretty much sorted out all my gifts fo DM in the debenhams blue cross sale. I wouldn't have realised it was on if I hadn't seen it mentioned on here Smile thank you!

Kinetic Sand

This is down to £14 on Amazon. Wouldn't normally say its a bargain BUT its on most of the popular toys for Christmas lists so i think it will sell out closer to the time.

I'm mostly a serial lurker on here but I love it. Thanks for all tips especially The Entertainer Spy Gear reductions. Finally got one to add. I have teenagers to buy for and I've just found some good Bright Side and Waldo Pancake stocking fillers here (sorry -can't remember how to insert a link). www.campusgifts.co.uk/clearance

MrsGannicus thanks for spiderman decals - they're brilliant!

Playmobil Noah's Ark down from £69.99 to £34.99 in Argos Link

CrapBag · 26/07/2015 22:52

Sainsbury's had the Frozen small figure set £24.99 reduced to £12.49. Shame DD already has it!

MomWhereIsMy · 26/07/2015 23:27

Just a note on the spiderman decals, if you read through the reviews they aren't the ones in the picture and are smaller. Probably still good!

peppapissinpig · 26/07/2015 23:37

Friends DD 10th birthday this week. Quite into beauty, hair, jewellery etc- she loves Claire's Accessories and the like. what could I get her that looks like a decent present but comes in cheap as poss (less than £10).

peppapissinpig · 26/07/2015 23:38

Christmas Activity pack for £2.49. Comes with a few colouring books and crayons. Good idea for a quiet activity on Christmas Eve or to give out as a small present.

Any tips for finding bargains on Amazon? Sometimes I stumble upon them while looking at something else but I could use a few searching tips.

LetThereBeCupcakes · 27/07/2015 08:22

Signing in! Loads of supermarkets around us are having toy sales to make way for back to school stuff. our local sainsburys in particular has a lot of duplo / lego.

Any suggestions of good places to buy brio-type wooden railway stuff? DS has a basic set but would like some more bits and pieces.

HamletTheCat · 27/07/2015 09:31

My local smyths was selling the playmobil digger at a reduced price of £9.99. Its the big front loader which normally retails around £29.99 so seemed like an excellent bargain! It doesn't appear to be on their website though so it means taking your chances with a trek to your local store.

candykane25 · 27/07/2015 10:39

Maple - you can tupe the word discount in the search bar on amazin but it's hit and miss.
I follow Bargain Hub on facebook which lists amazon bargains.
But truthfully I find the best bargains on here.

PP asking for brio bargains, i would look for bundles and job lots on ebay.

candykane25 · 27/07/2015 10:40

Liking my typos on previous post ;)

scandichick · 27/07/2015 12:52

LetThereBeCupcakes: IKEA has some, think they're compatible with Brio but not sure.

PU Leather handbag for £7.99. The cream and watermelon colour looks really nice. Would make a nice holiday bag.
