A little solar powered dancibg unicorn ornament for a fiver... A wee bit tacky but I suspect could bribg many hours of happiness to unicorn lovers the land over...

Place marking with a sleepy baby lying on me. Can tell Amazon app is going to be a godsend this year. Can't believe how bargainous the book deals are.

Those who do hamper type gifts - what do you recommend putting the bits in? Is there something festive cheap out there?

AlwaysNeverOnTime · 22/09/2016 07:14

If any one spots a barginous Lucy the dog or can recommend something similar, could you let me know please? Smile

If anyone is a member of the build-a-bear paw club, ive had an email this morning for a free bear worth £11 or £11 off q more expensive bear so keep an eye on your emails!

StubbleTurnips · 22/09/2016 07:28

Garden I usually go to a local Country Baskets for a basket or two or jute bags. You can order online but i have no idea about delivery. Some of the Christmas stuff is good value too so worth a look.

Thanks StealthSquiggle

If it is too small or too big I might just have to keep it for myself Grin

MissRainbowBrite · 22/09/2016 07:35

Always You should check B&M for a Lucy dog, they definitely had them a few days ago and if I remember right they were about £22.
Whoever was after a small unicorn but doesn't want to pay jellycat prices DD has a beautifully soft beanie type one that sits about 5" tall from Keel Toys, he was £5 I think.
Had an email from Gap this morning with 40% off the whole website.

Zeusette · 22/09/2016 07:50

QUICK Robert is back in stock!!
Just managed to order one for my dd who will be nearly 2 at xmas I'm sure she'll love it 🙄

Vintage1980 · 22/09/2016 07:52

Woody we got that little Tikes kitchen 3 years ago, it gets played with every day and still looks like new. We paid about £125 (I think) so it is a good price.
A word of warning it takes a few hours to build! Not one to leave until Christmas Eve.

Zeusette · 22/09/2016 07:53

What about the the smaller Robert from Argos for your niece BeBesideTheSea

verytiredmummy1 · 22/09/2016 08:00

This threaded my happy place!!
I NEED a Robert. DH says no! :(

WheresTheCoffee · 22/09/2016 08:02

Is there a Lakeland free delivery code around please? I'm a little bit in love with these but can't justify postage when I don't need anything else!

GardenWorm I make hampers for my parents and FIL and use these from IKEA with a Christmassy ribbon threaded around the top. They have nice wooden ones too.

featherpillow · 22/09/2016 08:12

Woodwaj those stickers are a great idea. Its hard deciding which ones to get.

toastymarshmallow · 22/09/2016 08:19

I am now the proud owner of two Argos Roberts. :o

This thread is skinting me. But at least I will be organised this year.

BrollySmolly · 22/09/2016 08:31

I know someone mentioned a doll bath up thread. Just wanted to share my Asda find, which is actually just as good as the big brand names and only £12

MissRainbow is there a code for GAP? I can only see 25% off on the website and DH loves their jeans.

hgleslie89 · 22/09/2016 08:49

Just found this and place marking. Will be looking for prezzies for 4 year old niece, 2 year old nephew and DD who will be 5 months.

MooseyMoo · 22/09/2016 09:00

Molton Brown have free delivery on all orders until Sunday.

CoshPunt · 22/09/2016 09:01

Ordered the kitchen and received it. The box is huge. Definitely not looking forward to building it but I KNOW DS will love it as there was one at the hospital when we had an appointment and I could barely tear him away from it!

I wish he liked unicorns. I need a Robert. :(

BadgerFace · 22/09/2016 09:17

BeBeside you will definitely want to keep the jellycat unicorn - they are so soft... DD1 picked it for her little sister as a present when I was pregnant. She still looks longingly at it every time she's in her room nearly a year later! Although the mini-Robert en route should help... Grin

OnTheEdgeOfItAll · 22/09/2016 09:41

Whoever was asking about horse related items that are more suitable for boys, try looking at equine suppliers / farm suppliers. If you know anyone going to any of the end of season horse shows, they will see loads of stuff. (eg horse of the year show.) Thelwell used to be the big brand for kids, but not sure how much of that is still around.

RJnomore1 · 22/09/2016 09:53

Don't buy from Milton brown now unless you're desperate - the £10 voucher is due in about a weeks time and they will probably have at least one period of free delivery during its validity.
