Sorry Billy Button is two separate words.

Thank you Eagles and Coleslaw, I'll have a look at those (and make it appear one night!)

Snowgirl1 these Enchanted Fairy doorways were really popular on the last year's thread if I remember right!

Last year wilko had huge gift bags for bikes for £1 or so. If they have them again they could be a wrap saviour!

Poundland did the bike gift bags too in the close run up to Christmas as we got one for DD's bike!

Thanks who

Hi all,

So far today I've bought a Robofish (if you look on the Amazon page linked by a PP there is actually a link to get it from another seller with free postage so you don't have to spend £20) and a MLP Hoody from Aliexpress.

I got quite a bit of stuff from Aliexpress. But my best purchase this year was the Anna and Elsa costumes from 'Frozen Fever'. Disney Store were asking for £60 for the two, I bought them both for £11 and you honestly can't tell the difference, best thing is that they're not itchy inside either, lovely material!

I've also bought some lovely Christmas brooches from Amazon. They're very pretty and quite solid looking (although for the price they're not going to last too long I imagine but are very pretty). There are various ones but I've linked to just one below. Bargain!!

Has anyone had issues with giving card details to Ali Express? I'm just slightly nervous for some reason. I love the MLP hoodies though....

i bought dd2s MLP hoody from ebay itself so have a look on there

Thanks Chips - didn't think of that! Got one all ordered now

Struggling with the mlp hoodie sizes! Anyone know roughly how they correlate with ages?

I'm sure I bought something late last night but don't have an email and can't remember what....!

306 Maybe your internet history will give you a clue?

Remembered it was a bid on eBay on a Barbie!

Place marking for payday

Drinking straw glasses, these ones are 99p on Amazon but I got the same ones on eBay for 45p (had to bid for those ones).

I just got mine and tried them and can assure you that they are fun for all the 34 year old women you know. . So should be fun for the 7 year old I actually bought them for!

I bought a My Little Pony Scribble On today from Wilkos. £15 reduced to £5. Tesco have a Playmobil camping set reduced from £13 to £5 too.

Thanks Lion! That onesie scares me a little bit, I have to admit!

Wow that bike looks amazing clockorange!
Can't believe the price for that. I was looking at ones approaching triple figures and thought there had to better options out there. Thank you

Thank you daddykyller for the heads up on the Olaf Tesco offer bargain £18 reduced to £6 - just purchased. 1st time on this site, taken a while to read through all the pages but thanks to those who have started it and everyone who has contributed - it's brilliant!

Not sure if someone has posted this but Argos have on sale a big box of christmas crafts for £5 reduced from £20. Bought it yesterday for my ds and it has loads! Colouring, painting, stickers etc. Very impressed with it.

Lokibear just tried to look at Tesco Playmobil Camping Set but it is reduced to £13 not £5 or it something else? My nephews are always camping this would be great because they could really relate to it.

Shoopshoopp, I bought quite a bit from Aliexpress last year and never saved my card details into it. I had the same concerns as you so also used my personal account which always has very little money in, just to be on the safe side. Never had any problems either.

The other good thing with Aliexpress is that even though the money leaves your bank account, it is actually held by Aliexpress until you confirm that you've received the goods. The seller doesn't get your money until you're happy with your purchase. If you don't receive it or you're not happy, you can get your money back.

Bell, thank you for that! We had a £5 gift card from Argos and couldn't find anything we needed for that amount, but now I have - thanks!!
