Just checked my local stores to see if I can get one for anyone that needed one and there's none unfortunately near me.

Has anyone seen the mTech Wall Climbing Car on sale?

It retails for around £20 and I've only seen it in a 2 for £30 sale (I couldn't find anything else I needed, so not much of a saving). Found some cheaper makes on Amazon, but I'd rather get the brand that I've seen in RL.

thanks!

Weird one

M&s are doing LED light up letters in clear Perspex. I really need a letter O - none online. Anyone seen anything similar?

Horton is this the wall climbing car you want? I can't see the brand.

ShesAStar · 01/12/2015 13:03

My local Sainsburys had the Malibu Barbie house down from £99.00 to £50.00.

FabFlo · 01/12/2015 13:25

I'm in the final stage now.

Just need;

A wooden skipping rope
Frozen jelly stickers
Draughts (the board game)
A whoopie cushion
2 musical jewellery boxes (the type with a fairy that spins round)
Red and White candy canes (can only find green and white ones Confused)

If anyone sees any bargains on those I would be very grateful Xmas Smile

Adarajames · 01/12/2015 13:30

Fabflo - if you mean real candy type candy canes, all the 99p / £1 shops near me have tons of them. Also in our local tesco

FabFlo · 01/12/2015 13:42

Thanks adarjames, I don't know how I keep missing them! Will make a special trip.

mummy23xmaspuddings · 01/12/2015 13:49

Fabflo Home Bargains have red and white Giant candy canes in a tub by the till

FeelingSmurfy · 01/12/2015 13:52

Notonthehighstreet - DEC10 for 10% off

This was sent to me for being with them for 2 years, but it doesn't look like a personal code, should work for anyone

Penguinbeaver · 01/12/2015 14:08

Fabflo have a look on Amazon for Musicboxworld jewellery boxes I got a lovely spinning ballerina musical one for £9

ExAstris · 01/12/2015 14:10

FabFlo 2 of my local garden centres have wooden skipping ropes with the handles carved into various animals. I bought a zebra one for DH's niece last year.

SymphonyofShadows · 01/12/2015 15:01

I went to TK Maxx today, all ready to be seduced by beautiful baubles and gorgeous crackers etc. Ha! The only thing I liked the look of was a holographic 3d skull lamp that was cheaper on Amazon. Very disappointed at lack of twitching opps.

For anyone with a Marvel Deadpool fan I ordered this from Aliexpress it was about £2.80 and I'm very impressed with the quality. Took a couple of weeks to arrive

Fabflo in the summer I saw wooden skipping pound land. Might have been a summer special or may still have them if you have one close.

I got my red and white candy canes from asda....

lionsleepstonight · 01/12/2015 15:13

[asuwere], thanks for the Mousetrap info, got free click and collect. Many thanks! (it wasn't being sold via Amazon so just couldn't get the free delivery...)

I love this thread! I have bought so many things from everyone's suggestions!

Worried about having post purchasing withdrawal symptoms though once the thread finishes [fasd]

FireflyGirl · 01/12/2015 15:42

Just a reminder to anyone with friends/family in Australia - M&S are doing free delivery there at the moment on orders over £30.

I ordered and got a dispatch email the same day, and I'm sure it said delivery is before Christmas. (Double check this as it's not relevant to what I sent - friends couldn't have children so emigrated to start afresh with a new career, baby now due in 2 months Grin May have gone a bit mad in the baby department, but, you know, free delivery)

Does anyone remember the link posted for the cheap football tickets?

LittleReindeerwithcloggson · 01/12/2015 16:12

fabflo

Got my DD musicical jewellery box from smyths, it's really nice. Was around £7 and either had spinning fairy or dancer. Can't remember which and I've wrapped it!

LittleReindeerwithcloggson · 01/12/2015 16:15

It was this one
