Help! Does anyone else have the Play mobil police advent calendar? If so, what is today's (11) item supposed to be? DD got a fairy; DS just got a white lump of plastic which looks as though it should open but I have no idea how.

RoastieToastieReastie · 11/12/2015 07:34

I'm very pleased with my £20 Boden voucher and do love Boden, but it does make me wonder given they seem to be sending them to all customers how much of a mark up their stuff must have to do this Hmm .

Can I ask advise please on the Frozen Toddler dolls? I can't decide if I should just get DD a normal toddler doll, the snow glow one or one with a singing wand?! Any recommendations! Thanks!

Robo turtle £7.98 Amazon today

LittleReindeerwithcloggson · 11/12/2015 08:53

Pressed post too soon. Might be worth looking as alternative to little live pets although I got my little live one for £9.99 in October so they are around

Pinkpiglet · 11/12/2015 09:01

How old is your Dd theonlyoneiknow?
I've bought Dd1 (age 3.5yrs) the singing one as she always sings frozen songs. I've bought Dd2 (20 months) the simple toddler doll so she has something similar.
I think it depends on whether the singing function would be used.
Elc have the singing one and they have 20% off all toys so not sure if that is currently the best deal. I saw snow globe Elsa reduced in tesco but unfortunately I can't remember how much it was (I appreciate this is completely unhelpful, sorry!).

LocalEditorKent · 11/12/2015 09:11

Thatsnotmy I think you need to put batteries in the white thing and it's some kind of alarm for the museum?

Olecranon · 11/12/2015 09:52

ELC cupcake baby brother doll down to £16. Lots of good deals with additional 20% off.

NormaSnickers · 11/12/2015 10:05

Just back from Tesco, they have Playmobil Light and Sound Ambulance (set 5952) at £15 plus 20% off all toys so I got it for the bargain price of £12! Amazon price is currently £27.50 so am very pleased with my twitch!
Now need to wrap it up before DH sees it, he's already said we need to keep some of my bargain purchases back for DS's birthday in April!

Theonlyoneiknow · 11/12/2015 10:07

Thanks pinkpiglet Dd is also 3.5!

WhirlwindHugs · 11/12/2015 10:10

Missing laredoute parcels - I asked the place I was supposed to be click and collecting from if the parcels happened to be in the back. Yes it was!

So Hermes had delivered it there but not notified anyone. Helpful.

Anyway - worth a try for anyone else still waiting.

I'm trawling through Amazon looking for the last few presents I need and came across these:
Build your own dinosaur model £4-79

Playmobil Dragon Advent calendar £7-99

I'm looking for some music for ds10 to go with the ipod he's getting.
He likes Uptown Funk, Hozier, and some others I can't think of.
Is a Now cd a good idea or are there other compilations like that?

Also looking for a wicker cat basket for my mum.

MissRainbowBrite · 11/12/2015 11:20

Neddle - how about an iTunes voucher so he can choose his own, if you get an account set up so it will only load from gift cards then there's no danger of huge bills. The Now CD's tend to have a mix of songs and inevitably some that will be liked and some not. DS has an iPod and loves the chance to trawl through the iTunes chart then they end up with all the stuff they love.

1122christy · 11/12/2015 11:22

This might already be mentioned sorry but Claire's accessories have a 40% sale on. They have loads of things! I got my daughter loads of earrings and some necklaces. Put in the code EXTRA10 for an extra 10% off.

Question about the Boden vouchers - mine says not valid with any other offer - but have those of you who ordered used the current free delivery code fine? What I really want to do is use it with clearance stuff - it says not valid on the voucher but appears to work on the web - anyone else done this?
