@TheImprobableGirl
DH saw 6 of those big surprise LOL ball things with the dolls in, today at our local supermarket. £60. We are in the Channel Islands, but it's stocked mostly from Tesco products. Random I know, but you might know someone here, so thought it's worth mentioning!

FindAFingerling · 18/10/2017 23:20

Mama, I bought one in my local toys r us earlier this week. Website showed them out of stock but there were 4 on the shelf. Lady at the till was also surprised they had them in.

TheImprobableGirl · 18/10/2017 23:34

Ah thanks @MarriedAroundChristmas
To be fair, he should have bought them and popped on eBay - it would've made a tidy profit! I would love to live in the Channel Islands anyway but you've made me even more envious now Wink

I don't know anybody that is already there though so I'll keep my eyes peeled, I just tried to reserve one in Aberystwyth, not sure how i conceived I was going to get there to collect (I'm in the Midlands - Worcester) and I'm not a great driver at the best of times! But by god I'd have managed it Wink

@TheImprobableGirl
We have been discussing it tonight, not sure if they will have sold out or not. I'll keep you posted.

@theimprobablegirl

Are you on stockinformer? I've pre ordered one from smyths via their alerts. Typically dd now wants a fingerling too - she is every marketeers dream! Ds has never wanted the in thing because he is a geek

TheImprobableGirl · 18/10/2017 23:43

Well if you decide to purchase and auction I will bid for it... not very good at Ebay and the like, I tend to put face value and get laughed at Blush

TheImprobableGirl · 18/10/2017 23:44

Yes I have it seeing me emails thanks - thats how I managed to get a Luvabella! I'm sort of debating making my own... I'm going to need to channel my long time lost blue peter badge!

Someone asked about the price of dc superhero girls in Sainsbury’s. This set was £30 reduced from £60. No idea if that’s good or not. I did quite well. Bought the plastic kitchen a pp had earlier, Bosch tool bench a big car transporter with cars in. Few fashem things for stockings.

Thanks for the fingerling set heads up! I've reserved the playset in Argos 20 miles away but theyll only keep it til Fri & not quite sure how I'll get there in time without dc!

Will figure it out somehow.....

Haudyerwheesht · 19/10/2017 00:17

A lot of smyths seem to have fingerlings according to their website?

giggly · 19/10/2017 00:33

Smyths at Glasgow Fort has fingerlings last night.

Jupitertomars · 19/10/2017 02:38

Wondering whether to buy a fingering despite ds6 showing no interest yet

I'm worried he hears about them at school in the next month or so then I cant get one. They seem to be very popular!

Is he too old perhaps?

Hedgyhoggy · 19/10/2017 05:58

If you take up the20% for opening an account at Very are you able to pay for everything straight away or do you have to spread the costs?

margaritasbythesea · 19/10/2017 06:14

You can pay straight away.

lifelongfrugaleer · 19/10/2017 06:32

annwith try tinc for stationary. I've not used it but it has been recommended. Might deliver to you for less

Cupoteap · 19/10/2017 06:32

Loads of unicorn flingerlings on eBay

NoWordForFluffy · 19/10/2017 06:53

If you pay for Argos stuff when you order it they keep it for a week, rather than the day you get if you don't pay. I've done that for things I've really wanted before.
