If anyone remembers Sugru from last year, they have just launched a new kids/skin friendly version with 15% off until 27 September. Great for little builders, fixers and artists. I'd expect an offer on original Sugru over the next couple of months too. Great stocking filler for the hard to buy men in your life too.

The next Argos 3 for 2 starts next Wednesday the 27th.
I've been stalking their Facebook page waiting for it and will be so glad to finally have main presents bought

I too have now bought three chocolate organs and now two 3D pens. I didn't even know such things ever existed and I have no idea how it works but I think bil and dh might enjoy them. Are they like weird solid glue guns that make hard structures rather than molten glue?

jenniferl1983 I picked up four, thank you! It's a shame they're folding, maybe they overstretched themselves with such a big range Sad

SallyForthSunshine · 22/09/2017 17:42

Chocolate organs?! Like internal organs? (Feeling the need to read all 6 parts of this thread now!)

YoureAllABunchOfBastards · 22/09/2017 17:46

I bought the pen.

Would 14 year old nephew use it, or do it I give it to DS8?

Assuming the 8 is the child's age and not child #8 I think that's too young. I looked at these either last Christmas or the one before for DS (now 13) me the man in maplins said that he would be too young (it gets chuffing hot).

The poster who was asking about Cath Kidson discount in run up to Christmas - they definitely did it last year as I recall ordering gift for friend. I think it came out late October ish. If I see anything I will post.

Was planning to get some multipacks of Galaxy to put in stockings this year. What have they done to it??? It tastes like an oil spill meets Tesco Everyday Value chocolate! Changing plans now - it will have to be Daim or something like that.

Fekko · 22/09/2017 17:57

I've just remembered that I've got about £45 in boots points! Yay!

I've just received the November issue of Good Housekeeping , the Molton Brown offer is a 100ml free bath and shower gel when you spend £15 with code GHK15 , i think the days of £10 off are but a dim and distant memory ( must have been 2015 when we were all getting freebie MB shower gel baubles ).
There is also a coupon for a free 8 ml L'occitaine moisturiser but that's a clip the ocoupon and go into a physical shops ( aka so they can upsell you) job .

Fekko · 22/09/2017 18:00

Apparently next is having a big sale tomorrow and Sunday (online and in store).

YoureAllABunchOfBastards · 22/09/2017 18:01

Fekko - yes, 8 is the age not the number. Christ, having two has nearly finished me off - 8 would be a sodding nightmare!

Flibbertyjibbit · 22/09/2017 18:06

@YoureAllABunchOfBastards I've bought 3d pen for 8 year old, I think a sensible 8 year old with a bit of adult supervision would be fine. It is hot at the nib but as long as they hold it higher up it's fine.

SallyForthSunshine · 22/09/2017 18:07

Oh, oranges I'm such an idiot!

Fekko · 22/09/2017 18:11

Hehhehheh - mine definitely not to be trusted at that age with something hot!

Matilda2013 · 22/09/2017 18:14

Okay so dsd has had a look at the Argos catalogue so I can get some ideas.. little live pets what are the best ones? She's circled turtles.

She also wants a kidisuperstar which is like a karaoke I think? Any good or find a normal one?

She also circles some completely random things Grin

Tattybogle89 · 22/09/2017 18:15

Hawkins bazaar has loads of clearance items from 35p that would make great stocking filler!

Rockhopper81 · 22/09/2017 18:28

Ordered the 3D pen for my oldest nephews 13th birthday next month - hopefully he'll like it, if not I'm sure his almost-10 year old brother will appreciate it!

Matilda2013 we've got a turtle and a little bird, both a year or two old at least, so new models may have improved. The turtle swims great in the bath, but does have a noisy motor (and keep long hair away from the back end propeller...)
The bird is very entertaining I think DD played with it more.
