Thread 13: Will this be the thread I finish my Christmas shopping on....well, until I twitch

[Reastie]

See posts 2 and 3 for links and info

Charades for kids is suitable for younger kids. You can either choose a word or a picture. It's great fun, my 6 year old likes choosing words and my 3 year old loves it and we have a laugh trying to figure out what he's trying to act out.

IWOOT now have 2 beauty boxes for £20 here
Not sure they've updated the info though, as it can't still be worth £130?

Bargain Gin?? Help! £10 budget..is that even possible

Thanks so much for the Brewhive info. Just ordered the 24 beers for £19.
Code was FCC2C

Can I check if this means I've now subscribed? Didn't seem that I obviously had but I may have missed some crucial info!

Maybe not just what you are after and I haven't checked the postage as I'm in Scotland so can pick them up in store but Demi-john is a fab shop. Describes itself as a liquid deli. Does lovely booze but also oils and vinegars.

cadence this year they have animated Stickman for TV

Thanks spub I'll take a look

Woodwaj - there's a fever tree gift selection pack at sainsburys for £12. You might find it cheaper elsewhere. Probably nicer than value gin and you might be looking for quality rather than quantity

Just bought aldi musical biscuit box for relative with dementia, who used love music and singing . Thought it would be good as it looks bit old fashioned and it's something to watch and listen to.

Cesare board games wise have you tried Carcassonne or Catan? We like those here and we also like Risk.

Thanks for the info finlaggan and lazaroo.

I popped into dunelm today too to pick up a teddy bear throw, again from recommendations on this thread. I'm turning into such a sheep . I can report that it is very, very lovely and soft. Thank you to whoever recommended it!

Didn't see your post there earlier nocutsnobut , you've spotted some good bargains there

Was in TK Maxx today and found a Paw Patrol jigsaw puzzle book for only £2.99 so maybe another place to try.

Just placed an order at The Works. Annuals are 3 for £10 but VKING25 gives you 25% off and its free delivery on orders over £20.

Thanks for the tip on One Stop chocolates!

Thanks for the tip on One Stop chocolates!

Lots of nice stuff in Matalan today - especially lots of nice stuff with initials on, and a rather nice reindeer print fleecy blanket which I am now snuggling under!

Found a PDF of one stop offer which shows the chocolates available, I was hoping it would include Lindt. It seems not :(

I'm looking for some super cheap photo albums, one to hold maybe 10 photos, and one to hold 25.. Really struggling!

More free Lego with Daily Mail but collecting from McColls. They are the same sets from a couple of months ago. My local McColls is a Martins newsagent.

Details of sets here. Runs tomorrow til Saturday

Find your local McColls here

We play the kids version of charades with 3-84 yos. Works very well as a twenty minute game that includes everyone! They have cards with pictures for the smallest kids.

Photobox are now offering free delivery on orders over 40 and also have up to 60% off products.

I should have held off a bit longer apparently!

Brewhive code -FCC2C. No subscription necessary. I ordered mine on Monday night and they arrived this morning. Really impressed - very well packaged and the free glass and beer guide are lovely. Not tried the beer yet, but all in good time...

pipersorange it was me who originally posted about shower radios and mine arrived surprisingly quickly so much so I've lost it and had to re order

Last year I tried to claim the Daily Mail lego and the bastards at WH Smith said there was no offer Imagine my embarrassment when I realised the offer was for McColls

I've checked my IWOOT order, I paid £30 for 'worth £180' of stuff. If it is now at £20 for '2 boxes worth £130' so I think it is basically anyone's guess. Looks like they've previously sold boxes for £15 'worth £53'. I will report back when mine arrives.

BaBaBa The Range has a 4x6 photo album that holds 36 photos (I wanted less but smallest I could find). I bought one full price (maybe £2.50?) and one in the sale for 99p! They come with stupid words on the front like "life" etc. but you can replace that with a photo.
