See post two for links and codes and huge thanks to firefly girl for helping me update the list so hopefully all old codes have now been banished. I can't keep the list up to date without your help so please do let me know in bold so I can't miss it if anything doesn't work Thanks

B and m have packs of shopkins (about 10 pieces ) for 3.99.
Looked popular as lots of empty shelf space.
The joys of more small toys to stand onGrin

WhyHasAllTheRumGone · 09/10/2016 09:21

Any advice about hatchimels? Dd (9) has expressed an interest, are they any good, or will they be another furby?

50shadesofknackered · 09/10/2016 09:24

Does anyone have a code for ELC?

Thanks

nocuts budget is as little as physically possible.
The patroller looks good, as does the lookout, but I probably wouldn't be able to stretch to both.
I didn't even think of ordering from China for pokemon stuff. I'm usually super organised and this time last year I had most presents bought and wrapped! This year has been pretty stressful though.

RedOrangeGoldLeaf · 09/10/2016 09:54

FireflyGirl £1 is indeed bargainous enough, I've been finding them around £5 online! We have a Home Bargains in town, will check it out this week. Grin

PopsicleBopsicle that's great, thanks!

HerRoyal DS1 is really into dinosaurs and at that age we got him some dinosaur toys from the Works - these ones. OOS atm but have seen them recently instore. The Works has various dinosaur books and puzzles actually. Once he was old enough we upgraded to Schleich ones, but the squishy, cartoony Works ones still get played with.

SantaVQ · 09/10/2016 10:01

Still got it Reastie Wink

If our multiple buys for hype are not honoured then there will soon be hundreds of bags for sale again.

I paid with PayPal and have not had a notice of refund. Surely I would have if they were only honouring one per customer. And I am sure someone up thread said they had two on their way.

nocutsnobuttsnococonuts · 09/10/2016 10:10

herroyal if u can only get one definitely the patroller - much sturdier and better made. The lookout is always falling over and falling apart - dd becomes frustrated with it easily!

pantherfootballforever · 09/10/2016 10:26

It was me that said I have two on the way - also paid with PayPal. However I did order three and have heard nothing about the third one yet.

pantherfootballforever · 09/10/2016 10:26

That's re: hype bags by the way!

Mipe · 09/10/2016 10:27

I have got despatch emails for 4 out of 5 of my Hype bag orders from the other day Smile.

Itmustbemyage · 09/10/2016 10:27

No despatch e-mail from Hype for me and I only ordered one back pack.

HerRoyalFattyness · 09/10/2016 10:39

Thanks nocuts looks like the patroller it is.
red those dinosaurs are really cute!

WuTangFlan · 09/10/2016 10:44

Opened the Scalextric this morning, kids age 6 and 7 enthralled. Would recommend for £20, well worth it.

fairyjasmine · 09/10/2016 10:58

WhyHasAllTheRumGone my gut feeling is they will be another furby, but they do seem to do a do a bit more. DD (9) is also interested so I may well go for it if I can find a good offer. Her furby is in the back of her wardrobe because she doesn't like the way it can turn evil but it was a big hit initially!

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 09/10/2016 11:02

HerRoyal don't get the lookout! It's absolute crap and constantly falls apart! The patroller is far far better quality (weirdly!)

Badders123 · 09/10/2016 11:19

Who wanted Xmas ducks?
Dunelm have them on their website...£2 each

disneyprincesswannabe · 09/10/2016 11:21

For all those receiving a Robert this Christmas make sure you provide them with their own unicorn driving test (elf and safety and all that) unicorn driving test

Badders123 · 09/10/2016 11:21

Btw I have a large amount of schleich animals to sell...like....a box full! :)
Where do you think is the Best place to sell?
FB? (my sister could put them on the local site for me)
E bay? (Had a bad experience in the past, sadly)
Do mn still have a selling site?

Badders123 · 09/10/2016 11:22

Oh, and I've seen a knitting pattern on Pinterest for a newborn which is a unicorn hat :) and nappy cover with tail :)
I can try and post it if anyone is interested.....

buzzing · 09/10/2016 11:33

Any suggestions for a big / main present for 4 year old DD. we've got her older sister a scooter so equivalent present to that but she already has a scooter & bike so I'm a bit stuck.

Badders123 · 09/10/2016 11:34

IKea play kitchen?
Dolls house?

Lapinlapin · 09/10/2016 11:42

I'm also looking for Paw Patrol stuff. After reading comments on here and elsewhere, looks like it will have to be the Paw Patroller. At nearly £60 though, it's a lot for a plastic toy. Any suggestions on how to get it cheaper?

I expect this has already been mentioned, but the Entertainer is doing a special birthday event this weekend. Quite a few discounts in store, plus I got given a scratchcard at the till and if you were a winner, you got to choose a toy (mainly Shopkins and Lego) from a box. Most people seem to win!

1122christy · 09/10/2016 11:44

I use Aliexpress a lot but quite a few of you have mentioned wish. What's the difference? Is wish better? Thanks

BrollySmolly · 09/10/2016 11:46

My 5 year old Dd is getting the new weeing baby annabell as her main present.

I see there is 15% off book people today. Is that the best discount there will be does anyone know? Thanks.

Ladybunnyfluff · 09/10/2016 11:49

I'm plonking my bum here now, I need to get a move on with Christmas now, especially since baby is due in early January and could be induced Boxing Day!

I did manage to get a hype bag for to pack for the hospital but need to know is there any giant unicorns left anywhere?
