EnglishRose thanks for those beano ideas, will go an investigate.

Neddle we used to use the dinosaur cutter too - was fab. I can still tell when ds1 (11!) is not very well as he'll ask for choccy dinosaurs to eat. I've just ordered the elephant one for my mum as a stocking filler silly - she loves elephants.

And I can also second the Usborne paper aeroplane book, been a big hit here too. I gave it to DH and he then did it with the Dc. An easy way to put a present into DH's pile but for the dc's to benefit!

The Book People usually have several good Usborne paper aeroplane books in stock - including a Star Wars one at the moment that's £5 instead of £15.

Julia Donaldson pack of 10 activity books for £6.50 and qualify for 20% off so £5 aprox for 10. Just bought 3packs for party bags.

SweetPeaPods · 10/09/2016 14:31

Valium which code did you use for 20% off?

HungryHorace · 10/09/2016 14:34

GEORGE20 is the code.

Dogmatix34 · 10/09/2016 14:41

Sorry Badger, code has gone.

Hi all!! Loving the threads.

I haven't rtft but the app 'wish' is definitely worth a download.

It's stuff from China that can take up to a month to arrive but well worth it.
I've just bought my nephews a go pro style camera for £12 each!! Shipping can range anything from £1-£5.

I've been told sizing can be quite out with clothing though, most things are really small so worth buying 2/3 sizes bigger

NotSayingImBatman · 10/09/2016 15:00

Some half price Imaginext at Toys R Us. Just got DS2 the Robo Batcave for £29.99.

BustingOut · 10/09/2016 15:04

My local Sainsbury has a lot of school stationery well reduced . E.g. filled shopkins pencil case reduced from £8 to £1.40. I bought notebooks, project books and extra pencil cases as stocking fillers.

EllaHen · 10/09/2016 15:17

Got excited there as I received an IWOOT despatch email. However, it just lists the other 2 items I bought.

Ach well, dh better appreciate his Pacman mug for Christmas. Smile

QOD · 10/09/2016 15:22

Im due 2 shark beds this week
Will we get them!

AdmiralCLingus · 10/09/2016 15:33

All of my items from iwoot says dispatched within 24 hours (including the blender) but I'm not hopeful either! I really needed a new one too :( oh well at least I ticked a few other presents off the list!

HungryHorace · 10/09/2016 15:33

I'm planning on cancelling my IWOOT order if they tell me the blenders aren't coming. Though I imagine they'll dispatch everything else and then tell me!

MumboNumber5 · 10/09/2016 15:46

Instore bargain - homebase are selling wicker picnic hampers for 2 or 4 people at half price (£12 and £14) - wicker basket, glasses, plates, cutlery, salt and pepper pots. That's DM and DF sorted!

woodwaj · 10/09/2016 15:59

Thats a great Haul girl!!

I am a bit stuck for the adults now!!

ICanSeeYourPixelss · 10/09/2016 16:01

Thanks to whoever it was who posted about the Molten Brown advent calendar and Virgin miles/travel set deal Grin

Mipe · 10/09/2016 16:03

Just had a big sort out of the present cupboard, I can't believe how much is in there! I have 2 boxes full for DD and most friends & family are sorted... I also have a box full for the local toy appeal (bargains but no one to actually give them to Blush) and I found last years Anorak peg bag which I am just going to use myself Smile.

Ratbagcatbag · 10/09/2016 16:04

Thanks for the heads up on the Julia Donaldson audio books. Dd (3) wants a karaoke/cd player for her room so these are fab.

I know there's loads of photo spa out there. But I've just downloaded freeprints. You can have 45 pics a month and a max of 500 per year. All 6x4 and you only pay for postage. There is also £1.49 off first lot of postage so I've just had 45 prints for £2. It takes seconds off your Phone to pic them. Mine are going in some frames for my mum from dd for Xmas present.

ValiumQueen · 10/09/2016 16:22

GEORGE20 for the Book People 20% off. Doesn't apply to everything, but pretty much most things. Free delivery over £25 I think.

Theonlyoneiknow · 10/09/2016 16:45

SheStoodInTheStorm · 10/09/2016 17:09

GinAndSonic · 10/09/2016 17:16

catanddog dc superhero girls has a graphic novel aimed at I think 8-12yr olds. Maybe look at dc Tiny titans and also superman family adventures too.

HungryHorace · 10/09/2016 17:17

WuTangFlan · 10/09/2016 17:17
