Camel camel camel is a great amazon price tracking tool here

Top cash back here is a cash back site where you get a percentage of cash back from what you buy when you shop with certain retailers. Just search the shop you want to buy something from in top cash back to see if there is a cash back offer and follow the link on the site to go to the website you want. You can then choose to have the cash back directly in your bank account or have various vouchers. I've managed about £100 in a year but many seem to accrue more maybe I don't buy enough, that's a good excuse if ever I've heard one . You have to earn something like £5 in cash back before they start sending you money. If you need insurance etc they can have great cash back offers. If you follow the link above it will earn me referral credit.

Quidco here is another cash back site like top cash back but has a different offering of shops. See info above.

MrsCrimbo
B&M and Home Bargains had them last year nearer to Christmas. If I spot one I'll let you know.

MrsCrimbo74 · 22/08/2016 11:57

Thank you Theimpossiblegirl that would be amazing x

BicycleMadeForTwo · 22/08/2016 12:29

MrsCrimbo if you don't get one of the vending machines you could always get one of these candy grabbers and then you could stick any sort of sweets inside.

MrsCrimbo74 · 22/08/2016 12:39

My son would love that BicycleMadeForTwo thank you

Wellhellothere1 · 22/08/2016 13:29

That's brilliant James Blonde! I'm planning on selling DS's current Islabike which should soften the blow of buying a new one a little.

monkeyfacegrace · 22/08/2016 16:43

We got ds a candy grabber last year and it's ace.

Look at mandm.com for Uggs.

Lunar1 · 22/08/2016 17:02

The Pokemon badges are brilliant they arrived today and have been stashed away. I'm going to have to find a second pressie draw before we get to September!

Nursenat100 · 22/08/2016 17:10

If anyone sees any ninja turtle stuff I would be grateful. We already have the house and dozens of the figures, so guess the trucks/vehicles etc would be the ideal! Thanks in advance for any spots!

LostMyRubySlippers · 22/08/2016 17:37

Think there was some ninja turtles stuff heavily reduced in debenhams sale? But can't recall what as its not really on my radar....

Ruby slippers was quicker and more efficient than me! Smile

Nursenat100 · 22/08/2016 18:06

You lot are bloody awesome! Thanks guys

Letustryagain · 22/08/2016 18:11

Hi all,

Just a quick note about the sizing for Lindypop, in particular the girls dresses.

DD is 110cm (even though she's just turned 7 - she's tiny) so due to the sizing on the website I ordered 5-6. The dresses arrived today and they didn't fit. The waist wasn't in the right place and they were quite tight.

So I've reordered (although our favourite ones weren't available in the larger size Sad) in the 7-8. I fear that these may just be too big all over but I guess we'll see.

It's a pain that we have to pay return postage though and because you can only do an exchange once they've received the returns back and provided you with a quote to be able to sort the exchanges out, it just seemed like too much hassle so I've taken the hit of paying the postage again on the reorder. A bit annoying but hey ho.

Having said that, the dresses really are lovely and DD is very excited to have 'a real petticoat'. Smile

Avebury · 22/08/2016 18:15

Robert Dyas also sell the candy grabber in the run up to Christmas. Big hit here last year.

RJnomore1 · 22/08/2016 18:34

The candy grabber is £22.49 on Amazon if you have prime.

VoldemortsNipple · 22/08/2016 18:45

Mama John Lewis do Ugg slippers up to size 5 in the kids section. Uggs My mum bought me them last Christmas for £45.

I bought my mum some in mandmdirect here about 3 years ago and they're still going strong, although I think I'll buy her a new pair this year. She likes them to have a good sole and a back in for putting the bins out.

LostMyRubySlippers · 22/08/2016 19:05

I set up an account with Studio whilst dithering over ordering Xmas bedding- they emailed me the code for £10 off £30 spend which was mentioned by pp- 073
They have now also sent me a catalogue with a code for free postage- 024
Postage normally about a fiver I think..
Both for new customers only & wont stack I don't think, but thought postage one might be handy if anyone not planning to order much

BicycleMadeForTwo · 22/08/2016 19:35

I Want One of Those have the candy grabbers for £23.99 use the code 12IWVB to get 12% off and it brings it down to £21.11 with free delivery as its over a tenner.

Kat3L · 22/08/2016 20:08

MrsCrimbo, I got one of those Cadbury machines for my DD a few years ago from Hawkins Bazaar.

WheresTheCoffee · 22/08/2016 20:19

I had an email from Amazon today about the Baby box from the other weekend. I couldn't order it on my phone and spoke to them on live chat about it. They said I'd receive an email update but I didn't hold my breath, then today I received a link and promo code for a free box! Worth checking your email if you missed out last week Grin

urbanturban · 22/08/2016 20:57

Not strictly a Christmas question, but do ELC still do birthday codes?

I haven't had an email for ages with any and it's DS 4th birthday soon and I've seen some ELC bits I'd like to get him?

woodwaj · 22/08/2016 21:04

For some reason i have started getting elc/mothercare emails on a daily basis its sooo annoying!! Ive never once had a voucher though!

3 for 2 toys at very. Some are in the sale.

RoastieToastieReastie · 22/08/2016 21:05

Thanks bicycle. Got one for DD dh. Used NEW15 for 15% off.

LostMyRubySlippers · 22/08/2016 21:15

I had a birthday code from ELC couple of months ago- got a feeling I had to rejoin the club before that though as I wasn't receiving them... Might be worth trying that?

Also the entertainer have a birthday club & provide vouchers for 20% off. You can add up to 10 children & include family/ friends DCs rather than just your own
