Lego made me chuckle with her comment about sleep shopping in the last thread!

For all info see next post for links etc and let me know if a link doesn't work or a code is no longer valid or if I've missed something good Thanks

Sainsburys toy sale has been rubbish the past two years. Bought hardly anything last year. Very disappointing.

I've had no joy with getting a wilful, I tweeted them several times but got nothing. Really annoying seeing other people getting responses!

IamAPal this one looks sweet, but not sure if it's maybe a bit young?

Thanks for the new thread. I need to make more of an effort to get presents sorted as all I've bought so far is the hotel chocolat box for my DM!

can anyone recommend a giant (ish) bean bag for dc 2&7? need to be a decent quality!
In other news my ipad touch is still going strong after 4 years! I love it, teamed with my cheap phone I get most the benefits of an iPhone at a fraction of the cost!

Lovely new thread, thank you, and lovely new bargains! I am a bit behind though, and have just caught up with the beautiful Lost My Name books. What is the best bargainicious way to get one? Codes/referrals etc
Some people were talking about free ones... Could anyone give me a point in the right direction? Thank you!

That's more what I'm looking at duckbill, I like the drawer to put her crap in but yes too babyish. I'll find something I'm sure.

Thank you to the poster who added the Amazon La la loopsy link, I bought two, one for DD (even though I had finished shopping for her - it's not boding well if I'm twitching in October!) and one for our "present cupboard".

On another note, if anyone else is wanting money off Flaviar, would you please use my link so I can get a credit too? You get £10 off by going through this link BUT if you register and wait for an email from them before you check out, they will email you a short questionnaire which gives you another £5 credit which stacks, so you will have £15 off in total, I bought a Whisky tasting pack at the weekend and got it for £14.99 instead of £29.99 by doing this which I thought was fab Smile

My link is here : Flaviar discount

I just came to post the same thing Adamantly, I'm very pleased with my discount! I'll leave my link here too, in case anyone wants to use it Flowers

Matalan have some coloured pencils in a pretty tube for £2 here. Might make a nice stocking filler or they'd go nicely with an adult colouring book I think, especially if you're looking for teenage dd's.

Matalan do this cute mirror for £8. Not sure it's big enough for what you want.

I too wanted (yet another) Molton brown order as db & sil moving into new house soon & thought handset would be a nice gift but all click & collect suspended here, so went to sainsburys to buy a mag & there were only 2 left! Really hope they don't say not you again!

Both mine have iPod touches - DDs bought on Black Friday last year and DSs 3 years ago, and apart from storage issues they are both working fine.

Got DSs iPad mini £50 off with John Lewis on Black Friday so suggest waiting for then.

My top tip today is Zalando, for anyone interested in shoes. Got my DS the latest Nike Roshe trainers half price. They have an incredible selection at vastly reduced prices.

Thanks for the surfdome link-something for everyone, pjs for ds, gorgeous wellies for dd & jumper for dh!

Hatley have some gorgeous unicorn/rainbow things-A gorgeous umbrella among other things!

Can anyone tell me can I cancel the flavia subscription immediately or should I wait for the booze?

So is are you automatically signing up to pay a monthly fee to flaviar? I didn't order a tasting thing, just ordered a bottle of gin.
Thought it was too good to be true, I've got £105.00 worth of credit to spend!

Hotel chocolat tasting box, does it say all over the box that it's from the tasting club or could you get away with gifting it?
