Christmas bargain thread 3: chalk pen anyone?

[Reastie]

Info with links on post number two.

Can someone explain the chalk pens to me please? I bought some (baa!) Andy they arrived today but I don't actually know what to do with them! Do I buy a chalk board and let my 2 year old go mad? How do they rub off?

Help!

Thanks for the thread as well Reastie, and Chips hope everything is ok.

Thanks whoever posted about the shoe laces in China ebay. Glow in the dark ones arrived today.

Marking place. Ordered my chalk pens! Now to persuade DP to paint me a blackboard on my wall!

The chalk pens can be used on other surfaces as well as black boards. I think there's some links on amazon or in an email they sent.
Check they come off before drawing, but try glass and some plastic things.

Reposting the photo blanket from the last thread:

Photo blankets are through Living Social - £19 for a 6 photo blanket.

If you click on my link to get there, I get a credit towards getting mine free.

With so many people buying for Christmas and not needing things immediately, a reminder that if you have prime you can choose slower delivery and get a credit for kindle and digital apps for £1. I have only just realised and every little helps with my kindle addiction!

First post on this new app so hope I'm doing it right. Got two birthday parties in October, a 3rd & 5th girls. What's bargainous on Amazon at the moment? I want the pens so need to buy a few more things!

Place marking on the 2nd thread! Also if anyone is buying from mamas and papas pick up a catalogue and there's a £10 off £60 voucher on the first page

Got Xmas duvet (single) in Matalan for £14 today, also had lots of stockings and various things. If you download their app you can get 10% off.

Hi Sangria! And thanks again, Reastie This and Strictly really mark the start of the festive season for me!

If anyone sees any Playmobil bargains (esp Fairies) I would be v grateful to hear about them.

And when you order the chalks (I don't have Prime) does the order before you have added them have to total £20+ to get free delivery? Thanks.

Thanks for the new thread.

I've just sorted my adult wrapping materials for the next five years thanks to amazon.

New thread! Brilliant. Thanks Reastie

Just been to collect my Argos 342 order. Chose Little Live pet bird £9.99, MLP Play Doh set £9.95 and Peppa Pig Weebles car £9.99.

Very happy with that :) Thats both DC and DNs sorted. Just a few items for stockings and adults to go. I'm hoping to have most presents bought before we move house in Nov.

Woah there is a website called the favour factory they do all kinds of personalised favours. They do stickers that would look great on your brown paper packaging I think it's 2.50 for a sheet of 25. We used them for our sons christening (code THANKYOU) for 10% off. They do plenty of other things too

Aww, it's great to see everyone again! I luffs our threads!

mooseymoo My dds want the little live pet bird but I'm confused between the £10ish ones and the £20ish ones.

Do the more expensive ones comes with a cage? And do they have to have a cage?

I have two to buy for dd1 and DD2 ad I don't want to send £40 on them!

Thanks Reastie.
Dobble picture game ordered, thanks Fire. Also got the chalks, thanks OP.

Thanks Reastie*

Funny you should say that wood I've been looking for some nice personalised stickers that say 'Happy Christmas, love from......' So will check out that company, thank you!

beamingbrenda I think it's your fault I've bought it as hadn't heard of them before until someone mentioned them on here. I've just gone for the cheaper one as didn't think we needed a cage.

I thought if she loved it and wanted a cage, I could buy one for her birthday as it says the cage fits two birds.
