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.

curiosity, camelcamel had an equestria castle play set as an Amazon best buy yesterday.

Sleeping Queens card came reduced to £10 on Amazon:

Sleeping Queens card game £10

curiosity the entertainer is pretty cheap for my little pony. They had the dolls the other day for £5.20 each :)

Smyths have 20% off instore and online today until Monday. No code - it is off everything.

Not sure if this is of any use- I just got an email from GAP- 35% off full price items (online only) with code:

QUICKGAP

It runs it at midnight apparently.

^ that should be "runs out" 🙄

Who was looking for the activity table?
Brecht one reduced to £18.

Pffteft!

Vtech

We had that one for dd when she was little neddle and she absolutely loved it!

Yay! My holding out on the activity table worked - thank you so much for that - off to order now 😃

frozen poncho towel for £5.80

I added this too my activity table (thought it would be good for swimming) there is an Olaf one for under £7 too. I also went for the Tom and jerry movie after the fantastic description by confuugled so thank you! And spherical ice trays for whiskey (from china) for less than £2.
Now just to avoid any bargains in Aldi and Morrisons today!!

If anyone sees any cool mugs (particularly ironman/grumpy the drawf but would consider others) at good prices point them my way - £10/£8 in Disney shop made my eyes water!

After fishing all my loose change out of the bottom of my bag after a catastrophic failure in my current one, I went hunting on Amazon for a nice new purse for me.

Haven't seen 'the one' yet, but did find:
Shiny diamonte clutch bag with embellished clasp for £3.13 delivered. It's got really good reviews, although it seems hit or miss whether you get a gold one or silver one. Definitely worth looking at, as my descripton just doesn't do it justice. Perfect for adding sparklé to a Christmas outfit.

Christmas themed tartan and snowflake coin purse £1.51

Vintage flower clutch £2.12

Silver plated rose clasp bracelet 80p. I have my doubts that it actually is silver, but for 80p it'd be great as a stocking filler for tweens/early teens.

Silver knot mesh bracelet £1.36. Again, I doubt it's actually silver. Also, apparently 'designer inspired'

Also, Book People have £5 off and free delivery with a £25 spend with code FOXDEL.

White company Christmas shop is open and there's the 20% off code this weekend

In my dreams my beautiful tasteful White and pale grey minimalist home is wonderfully scented while my adorably tousle headed children in lovely pyjamas play with muted tone stuffed toys and I waft past in lovely slouchy clothes brewing coffee I just ground from artisan beans.In reality I'm likely to be in my Cookie Monster pjs mud bomb site while the teen and pre teen try to kill each other and dh drinks douwe egberts by the gallon.

Ah well...

Does the M&S code work on school uniform?

I bought school socks in store yesterday Julie, and handed over voucher which worked.

Its not online though.....

The smyths 20% off that is....

Aldi have lovely toddler backpack with reins in their baby event, including unicorn and a lion. Also lots of julia Donaldson books and activity / sticker books.

Oh, I hear you RJ!

Clearance sales coming up in Somerset, Brighton and Northampton.

Dearest people with brilliant gift ideas - my dd is 6 in October and I have no clue what to get her. She is not into dolls, loves art and craft and animals. What inspiration can you give me??!!

dontstop camera? glitter tattoo set? kitten?

Don't stop my 6yr old dd is really getting her teeth into Lego now, and playmobil and sylvanians are getting well played with.

She loves her doh Vinci (big kid play doh).

We are also venturing into electronic stuff, I'm considering buying her own tablet, or a ds or something along those lines.

For her birthday she asked for one of those walking puppy toys (hope you know What I mean!) and that is attracting a lot of attention from the 6/7/8 yr old kids visiting.

Or get her a puppy

This is the walking puppy toy I bought.
