See post two for various links and codes.

GinandSonic mermaid blanket
They are like a silky material on the outside then white fleece inside, absolutely beautiful , going to try and get adult size for my 13yr old, the one I ordered is for an 8 year old so yes will fit 5-6 year old xx

Thanks cookiefiend for the knex link! Great bargain!

Oh I love this thread but I've never spent so much on bargains!!

I haven't bought anything so far :( I need to get my arse in gear

Tanya if you find the adult equivalent will you let me know! Can't buy one girl without the other and suspect the tween would need an adult one

I bought those cheap Halfords princess sleeping bags off the last thread (or was it no. 1?). For such a low price, I'm keeping them, but I don't expect they will be used much. They are quite small (DDs are around 100-110cm height and look about as big as will fit in there) and the material is shiny stuff that crinkles when they move. They're delighted with their first sleeping bags though. Would be OK for occasional sleepovers, but not for a camping family imo.

feelingblue I bought my coconut oil at Costco £15 for 3.4kg but only because I plan on making up loads for presents and I'll need it for the body butter. But you can usually get it in most supermarkets now or if you have a European market shop close buy, they normally sell it cheaper.

You can use any bog standard olive oil you use for cooking. The recipe called for light olive oil but I think that's more for aesthetic reasons.

Ding Dong merrily on high! On one hand I have a 7yr old DS with a Xmas birthday but on the other the 'grown ups' in the family have decided to do a secret santa instead of a gift for everyone!

did someone post a link for led alphabet fairy lights or did I dream it; looked over the old thread but can't find it

nursenat100 on his page he says he has the adult size if asked, I've messaged to find out if he has them in stock I'll keep page updated xx

Gate I think the alphabet lights were from home bargains? The poster posted pics of them and another purchase so try looking for photos

Here it is, from Banoffee

Honestly, anyone would think I have nothing to do.... List is massive

brickset is a price comparison site for Lego across all the Amazon sites, shows you what's good value in yellow (a lot of the Star Wars lego kits on Amazon are really low at the moment, like the x-wing). Might be one for the next intro Reastie?

For anyone doing food hampers for Christmas, Thornton's have some great deals on their factory clearance page,

The summer bundle one seems especially good, was £60 now only £25, if you were to split all the bits up you could make a few hampers

Home bargains has those cinema light boxes in for £10 at the moment according to someone on Facebook, everyone seems to be going wild for them so thought it might be worth a mention!
