Thanks horace
I was just wary in case it was meant to say it runs out end of Sept or something!! Don't want to do the calendars too early or baby will be unrecognisable!!!

I had the cheap octonauts stuff from matalan last year- if you can combine with a 20% code it worked out cheap.
Saw yesterday they have a gup launcher for £6 but nothing else.
Have also seen build a gup toy in home bargains for about £7- we have this & DS loves it. But no octopod there either

Hi everyone,

I'm new here, I love this ... was watching the posts last year but couldn't register for some reason!!! I want to get my xmas stuff out already but hubby keeps telling me NO hehe.

I haven't found too many bargains myself yet but I have brought the finger puppets and xmas train so thank you whoever posted them. I really want the rock crawler but seeing as my DS is only 15 weeks old better not lol.

I have brought the fisher price car from Argos for him but know my DD aged 18 months will want to play with it more than him no doubt ha! It's £39.99 down from £79.99. Can't do link taking to long to load so pic instead.

Think the Amazon reviews are mixed
The groupon ones work out at £21 for 2 delivered if you can use the new customer code

legopiece I was lucky enough to receive the sanctuary box for a present a few months ago and I agree, it's amazing, I love each product. Definitely a great price.

SpecialK24 · 06/09/2016 14:47

LostMyRubySlippers I've seen the video to it and emailed to my husband saying we 'NEED' it for her haha. Thanks I've never used groupon so I'll give it a go :)

Not an offer as such but for anyone with teenage girls to buy for (or mums, mum-in-laws etc) www.everything5pounds.com does what it says on the tin, I've just bought two coats, a skater dress, two pairs of gloves, two pairs of slippers and a pair of shoes for £58 including delivery. Obviously none of it is branded, but it all looks ok. There are a few toys on there as well.

Just been into Sainsburys and they are setting up a baby & toddler promotion which seems to include quite a few toys for younger ones. I just got some Galt two-piece puzzles for £3.99 each.

What are the terms for the Groupon code? Just tried it on something and it's not valid.

neddle · 06/09/2016 16:14

Loving the Zombie Cribbage someone linked to up thread - slightly cheaper on Amazon.

Asking again about the kids Fire tablet. Is it suitable for a particular age range? I'm looking at getting them for my children who range from 15 to 2 by Christmas.
I'm liking the parent controls on it, particularly the time limits - the only reason I'm considering it for my 2yo is she uses my ipad now and I think she would keep taking the others' if she didn't have one too.

Is it too young for teenagers? Any chance of changing the covers for the older ones - dd doesn't do pink and different colour each is easier.

Should I get regular versions for the older ones and add my own case and insurance?

Anyone got them for kids and are they worth it?

neddle · 06/09/2016 16:25

I wrote a list of what I'm expecting to arrive - 20 items!
I got 3 today - I ordered from IWOOT and got 3 egg cups with themed toast cutters for £20 for my boys.
I got Batman, Army and Space and they also do a Viking one.
Quite large boxes and will look good for kids if you're looking for something under £10.

Just went to find a link to them and remembered that I can refer friends - apparently you'd get a discount and I'd get credit. Not sure what the discount is, but here's my link.
