my toot toot house just arrived. It's a lot bigger than I imagined it.

BrollySmolly · 22/09/2016 14:28

Haud - yes, the shower pumps water.

Thanks SomethingOfTheNight. I'm glad I slept on it, as it occured to me this morning that with Father Christmas bringing him the ASDA pug fleecy blanket and a load of other pug goodies (I hope), it might give the game away if I buy him a Christmas pug duvet cover. DD wouldn't notice the link, but DS is very questioning! However, with the Studio code that VinoTime posted, I might see what other covers there are.

Incidentally, can anyone recommend a nice pug soft toy not 42 fecking inches long please Bargainous would be good, but more important that it is soft, super-cute and fairly realistic. I've budgeted up to £15, but would go to £20 for a really nice one, as I saved so much on the blanket Grin It's so hard to tell what they're like online and I haven't seen many in the shops. I quite like the look of this one but am not sure if it will be squishy enough...

Boots - bigger than a shoe box but smaller than a Robert? Mine is coming tomorrow and I thought it was quite small.

RoastieToastieReastie · 22/09/2016 14:31

Grin vino (cushions still looking very plump btw!).

Sad to miss out on the bath bath doll thing as picked one up this morning at great expense in the Argos 3 for 2 (even in the 3 for 2 it didn't beat the asda one price).

I'm now feeling quit concerned at how much DD has. I will go through her stash at the week end and probably feel very embarrassed at how much she has and promise not to buy her anything else and fail .

Sweaty Betty have a sale on. Got my sister who does running some winter running gloves down from £30 something to £10 for Christmas.

Used FREEDEL15 for free delivery at sweaty Betty. I'm covering so much of their workout gear for myself but sitting on my hands.

erm well I normally leave my daughter's buggy up in the hall and it was too big to be rested in there, Mummyshortlegz

but not as big as a Robert.
it's big.

Mummyshortlegz · 22/09/2016 14:35

Oh blimey. Dh might kill me. I'm getting mil to give it to ds2. Hope she appreciates this 😳

stealthsquiggle · 22/09/2016 14:41

Pug

Keel Toys are all super-snuggly. Can't comment on realism, though, as I wouldn't really know...

BoaConstrictor · 22/09/2016 14:48

If anyone just wants tubs of play doh, then ASDA have 6 tubs with 6 extra free for £8. 12 tubs for £8 is pretty bargainous but it is also in their "2 for £14" offer so I got 24 normal sized tubs for £14. Given the DC are almost 7 & 4, this may see out their playdoh playing days!

BanoffeePieIsMyFave · 22/09/2016 14:58

Home bargains still had 4 x standard size play doh tubs for £1.99 when I was in a few days ago

rogl · 22/09/2016 15:00

I've just bought 16 boxes of chocolate! BlushI only paid £13 thank you silver

Changingagain · 22/09/2016 15:07

The Studio code only gives me free delivery Sad

deepblue · 22/09/2016 15:08

BOGOF online at Claire's Accessories. A few exclusions, such as shopkins sadly. It's 3-4-2 in store, at the one near me at least, and they still have 5 for £5 sale stock in.

Wenchelda · 22/09/2016 15:10

Humidseptember I love this idea... same here I did have idea for unicorn hook on wall specifically to hang Rob from???? (Hopefully that's quoted you from your earlier post) I'm thinking of adapting the idea slightly and creating some sort of rope attachment and Robert could actually be flying above the stairs...... Grin

luckiestgirl · 22/09/2016 15:17

Boa can you link the play doh tubs offer please - I can't seem to find it

Stiddleficks · 22/09/2016 15:17

Any Lego elves fans, Aira's Pegasus sleigh is down to £23.97 on Amazon today.

VinoTime · 22/09/2016 15:41

Studio code may only be relevant to what's in the catalogue they've sent me - sorry! Sad

It's not taking money off anything else I've added to my basket that wasn't in the book. Arf!

073 will give you £10 off a £30 spend if you're a new customer.

040 comes up when I go through the top cash back link - don't know if it'll be any good though Confused

VinoTime · 22/09/2016 15:42

Oh, and TCB will give you 7.35% cashback if you're a new customer.

BoaConstrictor · 22/09/2016 15:56

luckies I think it is in store only as I couldn't find it online either.

hopefulgal · 22/09/2016 16:07

Hi I'm a long time lurker and have just twitched and ordered dd a toys r us Robert! Dh will kill me!

SideOrderofChip · 22/09/2016 16:15

I've ordered a Christmas pig duvet and light up cushion. Dh might kill me

Haudyerwheesht · 22/09/2016 16:26

Brolly thanks! I just get one! I almost spent £40 on one yesterday!

Barbeasty · 22/09/2016 16:33

Not a bargain, but the Waitrose christmas delivery slots have gone live today.

Chocolateteabag · 22/09/2016 16:40

Am I being thick on the Tesco chocolates?

LikeSilver - you linked to chocolates which are on a BOGOF offer - so 8 boxes at £2 each will cost £8.
The code you've given gives £7 off the order so takes £4 below £40 charge plus £3 to give the £5 total cost?

The code itself is a good one to have btw - but cant see a glitch from £20? Or am I looking at the wrong chocolates?
