You might send the Boots police on me!

We've called it even now because it took them 9 months to activate my boots parenting club. Xmas Wink

bizzle I got an email with £10 off a £50 spend (credit account but can't be paid straight off) with the code 3YGEU. Otherwise there's £30 off a £60 spend for new credit account holders only.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Happy shopping everyone!

That hover ball looks brilliant! Has anyone got/tried one irl? Am thinking of stocking up for kids presents drawer, lots of 9/10/11 year olds birthdays coming up.

Finally heard what the last people on my list would like: vouchers Xmas Confused

Bloody hate buying vouchers.

BirdingWidow · 04/12/2015 06:49

Glasses cloths are lovely quality - I was surprised by how good the resolution of the pic was.

Small one is quite small though, I bought one of each as a test and will buy more of the large ones I think.

dancemom · 04/12/2015 06:50

Glasses cloth great quality - however I have managed to lose mine!

BlueSkies0207 · 04/12/2015 07:07

That's great thank you, I will order large ones today.

Rockchick1984 · 04/12/2015 07:27

Can I have the link to the glasses cloth please?

FireflyGirl · 04/12/2015 07:33

Minion Stompeez £14.99 at Argos. Hopefully someone else may be able to suggest somewhere more bargainous...

AdmiralCLingus · 04/12/2015 08:50

Hahah tbf I'm always out for a bargain no matter where it's from... I obsess about the coupons they send to get the cheapest deals lol!!!

Today's star gift is the ted baker set "majestic marvels" (or something like that) down to £25 from £50.

They're still running the 24 days of no7 beauty although I'm not entirely sure what today's deal is

todayisabeautifulday · 04/12/2015 08:52

G1veMeStrength Have you tried the app Zeek? You can buy all sorts of vouchers at (more or less, depending on the brand) discounted prices. Some send you a card whereas others just send you a code to use. I have been buying from them for a few months now and have had no problem whatsoever so far, so I highly suggest it.

Also, if you use my code 2AVALP you get five pounds off your first purchase and I do too.

LittleReindeerwithcloggson · 04/12/2015 09:31

Just a note on hover balls/boards.
There was a feature on local news last night on how some have overheated and blown up causing burns. Might be worth looking into that more if anyone is thinking of buying

Pinkpiglet · 04/12/2015 09:34

Can anyone suggest a gift for my 9 year old niece. She's into crafts, science and her ipad. She doesn't seem that bothered by toys. She has wonderfully long hair so I thought about the scruci hair twister but don't know if this would be a good idea.

Budget is £20-25
Can anyone suggest anything please?

insan1tyscartching · 04/12/2015 10:00

Pretty sure it's only hover board that there is a safety issue with as the hover ball is only foam and plastic, no mechanisms that could overheat or explode. Have checked and there is no warnings or alerts that I can find anyway. I have bought one for ds although expect the dog to take ownership pretty quickly tbh.

PinkPiglet I've got my eldest daughter a magic set that can be used with an iPad.
