The 'twitch'

[OhFuckOff]

Sorry if stepping on toes, but I haven't noticed a twitch thread this year, so thought I would start one
I've just twitched and bought a pair of heelys for ds(9), a ghostbusters proton pack for ds (4) and a candy grabber for dd (6). Tell me what you have all impulse bought.

But on behalf of my bank balance: "curse you"

:o

Ah, now the thing about twitching on a build-a-bear is that it will be the twitch which keeps on twitching for years to come .

oh man

I have twitched FOUR TIMES on Asos.

A pom-pom beanie for DD; fluffy socks for DNiece: gloves for DNephew; gloves for DS; more fluffy socks (I'm telling myself I'll keep them for next year); tshirt for DS; belt for DS; pyjamas for DD: hair wax for DS to make it up for free delivery;

damn that 20% off code!

I've never looked on Asos! I probably shouldn't.

Although if anyone knows where I might find funky character knickers for a 9yo that would be appreciated. She likes the hipster/shorts type ones and they are staggeringly hard to find particularly as other than MLP she's no longer into pink, princesses etc (if they had dinosaur knickers...)

I am blaming this thread for the activity book twitch. Still, 2 horrible histories (tudor one will be put away for when we study it, the DCs are home ed), a crossword book and the star wars origami for a tenner ain't bad really :o

Thanks for the Amazon link, that's another £10 gone but too good a deal to miss!

Thanks satsuki

Go on then what 4 books did you get :o

I always plan to be finished shopping by 1st December, so anything I buy before Thursday isn't a twitch right? That tone of Pokémon cards I bought on eBay last night can be a twitch!

Do primark have a gods range of Pokémon clothes in boys as well?

I think for the first time we will be pretty much done by December 1st this year :) well, that's assuming I don't twitch again. The only things we have left to sort out are a couple of bits for DSS' GF, and underwear for DD's stocking (although I think I've finally found some that she'd like - she's got sensory issues and prefers the shorty ones)

I wasn't really looking at regular clothes in Primark but I think I did see at least one Pokemon t-shirt in the boys section :)

I got a dr who dot to dot book, Star Wars origami, animal origami and washi tape stickers .
I'm very tempted by a lelli kelly tutu

I twitched and bought a Darth Maulden masher figure, only to come home and discover I had already bought one! If anyone feels twitchy for one let me know and you can have it for what I paid for it (4.99 in Home Bargains)

Re. Amazon 4 for £10, I bought
Emoji sticker book for DS1
Animalium Activity Book for myself DS2
Two of the big lovely colouring books for my DNs

I was really tempted by the washi stickers and the animalium activity book.

This thread has made me twitch. Just bought scrabble, the Jurgen Klopp biography and some fine tip felts!

I almost bought DS1 a pac man duvet cover today but managed to talk myself out of it when I remembered he doesn't even care about pac man

Well done, that's good restraint :o

Scrabble is a classic. And educational. You are excused.

So my youngest child (4) has now told me all he wants for Christmas is a space man suit . So I may have just twitched and ordered one plus a flashlight friend because he loves his sisters

I felt bad for making everyone twitch on sticker books without having got some myself, so I've rectified that now. Star Wars and Peter Rabbit Activity books, and sticker dress up and sticker castles. I really wanted to get another Where's Wally as my ds loves his first one, but the reviews were confusing, they seemed to be mini editions and my eyes struggle with full size as it is so had to leave it.

aderyn I bought my husband a mug with a cartoon Jurgen Klopp's on it last year, it is his favourite possession. If that information is any use to you....

Does anyone know where I can get character cutlery - Star Wars or something a bit older than toddler stuff? Can't track any down.

Googling flashlight friends now...

I twitched today- bought some pjs for DH as they were almost half price (£8 down from £14) in Asda. I've already bought him three pairs of pjs, but these had fleecy bottoms and the Cookie Monster on which I know the DC will appreciate!

Many thanks Satsuki I am sure it would go down a treat here. Where did you get it?

I think I got it from the LFC shop, but can't see one quite like it now.

It was a bit like This one same pic anyway.

Thank you

Just ordered some Melissa and Doug scratch post it notes, for dd stocking so not really a twitch

I felt bad for making everyone twitch on sticker books without having got some myself, so I've rectified that now.

You're so kind :o :o :o

Oh you'll appreciate how excited I am about this - found out DSD bought my Christmas present at HYPER JAPAN

I have not twitched today. Despite having a couple of hours in town child free! I bought the last thing for DD's stocking as planned (yearly tradition so most definitely not a twitch) and then just spent a little of my birthday money (anime, naturally).

And sat in Costa with a Black Forest Hot Chocolate. OMG. Heaven.
