Thread 6 - the one where the shark beds go astray and we try not to eat our chocolate hauls

[RoastieToastieReastie]

Rubbish title but I'm off to bed in a min (it's been one of those days).

As usual links are on post two.

If I've missed anything good (which could be very likely as I'm getting back to work mode atm) let me know.

Thanks. That's what i do, but recently I've seen a few dd12, ds10 and it's made me wonder. Surely not many people have 10+ children? The thought of more than 3 terrifies me!

OMG Unicorn Gin!!!!!

[unicorn smiley needed]

Been in work since 11 this morning and just got home and managed to catch up with the thread! Phew! Broken bones all of the place! Hope everyone is ok!

Thanks everybody for the Tesco help but just obviously not in my area or its picking on me. Go to Home Ents and the last entry is Technology and googling toy brands also brings up no entries. Need to move closer to a superstore. Or possibly that might just mean bankruptcy.

Oh well Shine0n I think I got the clinic men's kit so will comfort myself with that.

Reastie What size parcel safe did you go for?

We had 2 (fake) clipped bay trees in (real) pots nicked from either side of our front door a couple of weeks ago. The couriers and postie leave non-signed for parcels down by the step, but now I am nervous they might get nicked too.

All my parcels have arrived so far... Well, except for the sheep cushion, but I think that is coming from China.

Clinique (stupid iPad). Hate to think what a mens kit from the clinic would involve.

Thank you to who kindly posted half price paw patrol play set up thread. Dn birthday sorted!

There's 10% off at Toxicfox using code WANTME. They have some lovely ClaireaBella personalised/customised notepads, phone cases, make up bags, wash bags etc great for Tweens/teens. I managed to spend £45.

Oh and then there was this which was unexpected. So I got one for my brother.

Oh, bloody hell RubyFlint, pass the brain bleach!!!!

Also I meant to say I got my Lost Name Intergalactic book this week and it's lovely, really great quality. Thank you

Bocolate If you're after other Star Wars bargains, I've just seen this Death Star ice mould for £2.15 instead of £12 on Amazon.

Apparently large round ice cubes (can they be ice cubes if they're spherical?) are better for whiskey than several small ordinary ice cubes...

In fact there are lots of similarly priced moulds for ice spheres on amazon that' aren't death star shaped for people looking for presents for whiskey/whisky lovers!

There are also lots in other shapes - from lego figures and bricks to long thin ones that are good to pop into a bottle to christmas designs. Just look on Amazon for what you are interested in and remember to sort by lowest price first!

Sorry Lala I was a bit at first but that quickly turned to as I thought about my lovely brother opening it. Juvenile I know.

:D

I always assume they've used ages if the number is higher than 6 darkswan I might not be right all the time but I figure it's a fairly safe guess!

How does everyone keep finding cheap bargains on Amazon?!

We love bunchems here!
The Book people have a Haynes build your own campervan kit that looks a bit like mechano for about £10. Would suit adult.

RubyFlint wonders if I could get them for dh without having to explain to Dc what they are when he opens them. That could be an interesting phone call from school in January. " hello chocolate your ds said mr chocolate was eating arses in front of him over the holiday!"

Thank you for the bunchums link dc have asked for more for Christmas so that's another crossed off the list 😀

Morning! SEPT16A17 will give you 20% off at M&S on clothes beauty home & furniture - valid 15-19 Sept (ie today til Monday)

RubyFlint - they are brilliant might totally gross out DBros for once

Thanks chocolate just ordered some things from M&S that I've been waiting on with the discount!

They have lots of Christmas stuff on there though it's not obvious, you have to search for 'christmas' and then the section comes up.

Anyway, the 20% works on Christmas stuff too it seems, and also lots is in 3 for 2. Got 9 lovely baubles for pretty much half price by stacking the discounts.

Me too itsnice I love stacking discounts

Thanks also for M&S code. I've ordered pjs for my older two for Christmas. I have 4 dcs and the younger two get the hand me downs, it's hard to buy pjs for the oldest unless it's presents or Christmas, so the winter range is curtesy of FC.

This is probably my last Christmas with them all believing, or believing just in case ... It needs to be good, but more practical with less 'junk'!

Thank you for the M&S code, 3 Disney princess t-shirts ordered for my 3 year old for Christmas. Still a bit pricey but she'll love them!

Oh balls! I should have added pyjamas to my order!

You can't use the code on it 😟 But m and s have a micro pedi with two nails in varnishes down from £60 to £24

www.marksandspencer.com/nails-inc-gift-set-with-2-varnishes/p/p22468236

And if you spend £25 on beauty you get a free micro nails worth £40 - you need to add it to your basket though

www.marksandspencer.com/micro-nail-nail-buffer-kit/p/p22441150

I've added a dearth Vader bath foam at £4.50 which DOES work with the code and I'm getting the lot for £27.60. The two varnishes alone are £22 full price.

For anyone who likes L'Occitane, it's available on the m and s website, with the discout code above you could get 20% off.
