That quote tickled me after a poster asked for a bargainous parachute Xmas Grin

Needle my ds1 has just turned 11 and amongst other things I've got him one of those "hype" t-shirts (loads on Amazon) and a mini adidas man bag! I know he'll love them Xmas Smile

neddle what about the 3d marvel wall lights you can buy one and add to the collection next birthday etc or have you seen the personalised match Attax cards? They are great.

margaritas theyre probably with my keyring 😠

chocolate tried all your suggestions (except the car as I don't drive!) and Nada :( the last place I saw it was in the kitchen on the side in its bag that it arrived in but it's not there now. Huff. I ordered it from Ali express so no chance I can reorder it now

leesmum · 13/12/2015 19:58

Whoops sorry Neddle not Needle Blush

WindTheFrog · 13/12/2015 19:58

trixy you are a genius! Thank you and thank you for all the other suggestions. I would lost without you lot. I think most if not all my presents have been suggestions from here.

Can you continue the roll? I need something for my secret Santa. He loves fishing, computers and anything gadgetty I'm looking to spend £10ish and I just haven't got a clue. Can't be a mug as he doesn't do hot drinks. Any suggestions?

margaritasbythesea · 13/12/2015 20:02

Admiral - all I can say is that my mantra when I have lost something is that it is always where you think it is. I am attacking the present cupboard on Tuesday.

neddle · 13/12/2015 20:15

Thanks for all the suggestions, going to trawl the Internet again looking at those ;)

neddle · 13/12/2015 20:17

£30 for a personalised football Shock - fantastic idea and I'm sure ds would love it. He's always losing balls though and I wouldn't want him using it outside.

Wind if you work in an office something like this might work? (They sell it in lots of places online if you google). This or similar would tie in to complete.

Furby booms in Argos for £30 instead of £60. Hard to find but I have located two in nearish Argos stores. Have suddenly decided to get DDs these. Why was I not more organised?

ohtheholidays · 13/12/2015 21:05

They had the musical biscuit tins reduced down to £5 today in Marks.

Iggi999 · 13/12/2015 21:14

Sports direct have emailed me to say there's free delivery - not sure if there are any exclusions but pretty good if not!

Oreocrumbs · 13/12/2015 21:36

Iggi has beaten me to it, I just came on to tell you about the sports direct free del. I've just used it to buy this MLP digital camera, torch and binoculars set for £7.99. It was linked on an earlier tread but I spat my dummy out at £5 delivery and didn't get it then. So I'm delighted to get it today with free del!

www.usc.co.uk/lacoste-eau-de-toilette-30ml-754464?colcode=75446490 Lacoste 30ml mens eau de toilette - it's actually quite pleasant! I've just ordered some for 19 year old DBs birthday in April. Free delivery tonight too as USC are a partner site of Sports Direct

y0rkier0se · 13/12/2015 21:37

MrsRudyRudpoo · 13/12/2015 22:11

Hi all, can anyone shed any light on the Le Redoute delivery? Just checked the tracker and it reckons it has been returned to depot?! I never had a text to say it arrived!

Hangingbasket14 · 13/12/2015 22:21

Mrs Rudy, I am also having problems with LeRedoute, apparently my order is coming in 3 parts, first I picked up, second, received a text but when I went to pick up they said they didn't have anything??? They seem to be a bit of a mess....

y0rkier0se · 13/12/2015 22:26

Also having bother with LaRedoute, this is my second order from them, first was fine, this one came in 5 days but three of the items are 'delayed' - haven't been charged for them but I want them! :-(

MrsRudyRudpoo · 13/12/2015 22:41

Oh dear, i see it's not just me. What a nightmare. Really hoping it turns up otherwise will be back to square one with my nephew's present. Grr.

OhHolyFuck · 13/12/2015 22:42

hulk pop figure seems to be free on a preorder and £2 delivery?

ReindeerPoop · 13/12/2015 22:45

Oreo I've just been looking at that MLP set and it's not a digital camera- it takes 35mm film, just in case that isn't what you were expecting!
