Thread 14 - I don't think a parachute is something you want to scrimp on

[RoastieToastieReastie]

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

Look at posts 2 and 3 for links and quotes

(this is only the second thing I've bought in about 3 yrs as well, both with gift vouchers, dd is 12 now so getting a bit past Boden...but the jammies are fab!)

I'd like a fraught excluder ...... :)

househunting that's so annoying. Its no where near as good but the rest of my order came today and it had a code for 20% off in there. Happy to route through the recycling if it's the best around?

So after much nagging gentle discussion, I've finally been furnished with what the DGC would like for Christmas- apparently it consisted of an airy hand wave and a vague "get them anything, they won't notice"

So I need gifts for 4 DGC, 3 boys and a girl (aged 1-9) Last year in a moment of inspiration we bought (different coloured) GAP hoodies and chocolate, thus satisfying both adults and children in one. Can't really do the same this year so was thinking perhaps PJ's? But where from? Both lovely and bargainous please

Hatleys pjs are lovely and surfdome often has good offers on.

Toblerone try the range, they had a few last week

Toblerone large garden centres with gift shops often have draught excluders.

Thank you fueled, after an hours trawling I think I've settled on FatFace for the two eldest and Joules for the younger two. Am now off for a lie down

Thanks Casablance but bloody Harry Potter's out of stock now! GRRR!

Libidinous there is a lot of almost matching stuff on here www.funkyrascal.co.uk/ that suits boys and girls- Scandinavian brands. I put all mine (boys and girls baby to teen) in the Maxomorra stars in different styles and they look fab! Lots in the sale too.

We have also done sibling rules t-shirts before, we made them up ourselves here, clother2order

If anyone has a spare Boden £10 voucher they won't be using I'd be very grateful if you could PM the number for it please

I have just been in Matalan and they have lots of Christmas things half price including penguin bedding, decorations , socks and most toys. Octopod undersea lab was £10 and the gup you build was £5.

I have another build a bear code for £10 off £30 if anyone wants it im happy to pass on, i shall not purchase any more bears sits on hands

I'm looking for Christmas hair clips or hair bands. As many and as bargainous as possible (can wait until after Christmas). I'm thinking of giving a couple in Christmas cards next year for dds school friends as little token gifts instead of chocolate coin. If anyone spies any in the coming weeks please let me know (preferably online) .

I would love a build a bear code please supermariossister if you still have it?

M&s have 50% off toys www.marksandspencer.com/c/kids/toys-and-books?intid=hp_car_2_3_031215_citoybooks

Thank you to the lovely MNer for the Boden Voucher

mrsdiddlydoo do you know whether that is in store too?

Reastie - Cheapest I could Christmas hair clips this year was 99p for 6 clips in Primark.

2 Christmas trees
2 Father Christmas
2 Rudolph
2 Gold sparkly ones

My dd's love choosing which ones to wear each morning.

For 8 clips I meant.

The Matalan half price sale is great, I am now the proud owner of so much stuff I didn't know I needed... Christmas pudding sack anyone???

Primark had lots of half price pj's today, I got some for pre-teen DD and her friends.

Fabflo that sounds perfect but there's no way I'm now going to brave primark before Christmas or in the sales!

The White Company's clothing sale is on and code AH033 works for free delivery.

Also, the Ladybird books (The Wife etc.) are buy one, get one half price in WHSmiths.

Does anyone else have a Boden voucher they are not using? I'm after a couple of t-shirts for ds.

I got my free book not long ago from lost my name, out of curiosity I checked to see if I could claim further books by referring more people...well the answer is yes you can! It looks like 3 extra of you lovely people used my previous link and it's allowed me another book! Thanks to those ladies and a tip for everyone else just to check your accounts :)

Delores love those sibling rules t-shirts...have bookmarked for later in year as I must not buy any more stuff, I must not buy any more stuff
