LetThereBe- sadly no. I had to bite the bullet and pay the delivery but 4 great sets for £23 was still a bargain

scrappydappydoo · 16/08/2017 15:51

Not really a bargain but Lush have got fidget spinner bubble bars for £4.95 they are online only so you have to pay postage too but I thought they'd make good stocking fillers & presents for nieces and nephews.

Asda have just got Jojo Siwa T shirts in if anyone has a little Jojo fan, I suspect these will sell out fast.

I picked up this lovely leather mens wash bag in Aldi for £9.99 today. I saw it on their website last night for £14.99 but wanted to check the quality for myself. I'm very impressed for £9.99, perfect for my difficult FIL.

link, buts it's cheaper instore

That's for the lush tip, my dds would love the fidget spinner bath bombs!

Can I ask what the m&s coffee gift is? Think I may have missed that.

hatchimals amazon have the glitter green/blue ones at amazon for £48 ish, but the pink/purple are back up in price. I do think these will come back down though, and smyths will have their 20% off next month too. My daughters after one but only the bloody twinkling owlicorn toysrus exclusive that I don't think will be reduced Angry

Can anyone remember who was asking for exploding kittens? I've asked twice now and can't find the original post, as I have one brand new I'm happy to gift.

Soslowmo · 16/08/2017 16:18

Thanks Llama - kicking myself for not getting the pink/ purple ones when they were reduced. Will keep a look out everywhere!

Idea for difficult to buy for people:

Enjoy all the benefits of a National Art Pass for 3 months for £10 - annual membership costs £65.

Free entry to over 240 museums, galleries and historic houses across the UK
50% off entry to major exhibitions including those at the British Museum and the V&A
Includes 50% off Harry Potter: A History of Magic British Library 20 Oct 2017 – 28 Feb 2018

What is it?

It is a passport to art, giving you the freedom and flexibility to explore art across the UK, with free entry to 240 museums, galleries, historic houses and castles across the UK that normally charge, discounted access to hundreds more, and up to 50% off major exhibitions.

But there is much more to it! All National Art Pass proceeds help the Art Fund to fulfil its mission to help museums and galleries buy and show works of art for everyone to enjoy. By owning a National Art Pass you are playing a vital part in supporting our public collections and ensuring that significant works of art can be seen by all. You win, the museums win.

List of Venues, this is not just London based.

Just ordered some of those Lush bath bombs. Thanks!

Pantryboy · 16/08/2017 16:50

Am just wondering if the fidget spinners are losing popularity only I am beginning to see lots of them all over the place and lower in price too. Although Lush bath bombs are great in themselves.
Firefly thank you for the Art pass it sounds just the job for a family I have to buy for.

I think fidget spinners are definitely over as a fad.

Hedgyhoggy · 16/08/2017 17:23

Usbourne 100 planes to fold and play is £4 with free delivery on prime or if not Prime with £10 of books. Given it quite a few times as bday present and always appreciated. Good stocking filler. I love this thread!

GeillisTheWitch · 16/08/2017 17:31

I've also ordered some lush fidget spinners for stocking fillers.

Reastie · 16/08/2017 17:32

Firefly that sounds like a really good present idea for awkward rellies, off to investigate.

LetThereBe · 16/08/2017 17:35

Ok thanks Isaacsmummy.
llama I'm not sure how far back the M&S coffee gift was mentioned. On their website, its under the hampers section and is £5 instead of £10. It looks lovely.
I'll have to think who else I can buy for to justify postage!

DumbledoresArmy · 16/08/2017 17:46

What is the date like on the m&s coffee sets please??

The set of 5 marvel hero mashers is now reduced to £15.99 in Argos

lionsleepstonight · 16/08/2017 19:02

My Lisa Angel order arrived today. Really impressed with the products and packaging. Going back to order more!

MrsGotobed · 16/08/2017 19:29

Good customer service from Lisa Angel too.

Part of my order was missing (not an item, but a component of an item IYSWIM) - I emailed and they got straight back to me and will send it out. They even checked with me if I needed it for a particular date as I'd mentioned it was for a present.

Tattybogle89 · 16/08/2017 19:32
