Bonus print have 50% off everything , cash back on Quidco and will send you a £5 voucher off your next purchase.
For Playmobil hunters, dd is now 14 so though my Playmobil days are over, a tip try eBay.de. Most of hers was from there if new, and at least back then was almost always cheaper than any UK shops. Also my best ever Playmobil bargain was the modern house which I got second hand from eBay for about £30. All perfectly boxed and not recognisably second hand.

@lionsleepstonight I also got MIL the GH deal last year. Couldn’t find a similar deal this year so just went with a Prima subscription which was reduced until end of Oct I think. Around £25, but no free gift Sad. It was direct from the Hearst website.

Bluenile1 · 28/10/2017 07:34

John Adams hotwires kit down to £29.80. Good price for this set

Bluenile1 · 28/10/2017 07:35

Forgot to say where. Amazon

Acunningruse · 28/10/2017 07:40

Shestoodinthestorm which colour fingerlings do you have and would you consider selling your spares? DS wants blue and black, sold out everywhere Sad

Re smyths - got email today to say LOL I pre ordered is in stock. The email says this:

Your order was placed on 10/10/2017 and will be reserved for 2 days after your order date. If your order is a pre-order, it will be held for 2 days after receiving this email. Orders are held until close of business on that

The email came through about 4am today - do you think collecting Monday will be ok or does it have to be tomorrow?

RE the ARgos laptop offer. DH has the old version of the HP Stream (this is the one that is on offer at Argos) and I have the new one. The old one isn´t touch screen, although mine does and it is very slow.

I find it fine for everyday internet use but I don´t use games etc. I store everything on a memory stick. I am not going to go for the offer for DD because it doesn´t have a DVD player or touch screen. I could put up with the other faff with a memory stick if it wasn´t for this. IT´s not bad though for the price.

I don´t know what I am going to go for.

By the way the Q&A bit on Argos is not to be relied upon. It answered a couple of questions about this laptop wrongly!

In other news, Lego Ninnjago 0617 Temple of The Ultimate Weapon Toy down to 57.41 0n amazon. Lowest price on amazon.

Lego Coastguard HQ 57.98 but only for Prime members.

GingleBelle · 28/10/2017 08:33

@Wayfarer - can I ask about the Argos code please? That would be really, really useful Flowers

NoWordForFluffy · 28/10/2017 08:36

Haudyer, in my every day life I'd expect it to me 2 clear days (so until the end of Monday), but I'm not sure I'd want to rely on that in this instance! Can you get there sooner? (The things we do for our kids at Christmas!)

Casablanca78 · 28/10/2017 08:40

If you have a sparks card it's a worth checking to see if you have a 20% off clothing and beauty bonus offer. If so, it's stacking with any other offer you may have on your card. I had a 20% off kids socks, tights and underwear so managed to get two pairs of the red fairisle Christmas pajamas for my two children for £16.64 (should have been £28).

BeeMyBaby · 28/10/2017 08:40

@IToldYouIWasFreaky I would just look up the website hotdealsuk for ps4's as they often list very decent PS4 deals, I would definitely wait till Black Friday as there is likely to be a decent deal somewhere for it (maybe an extra game for your money)

spellingstress · 28/10/2017 08:43

Pidgy - ds recently made chocolate bars at school. We bought a range of brown / white chocolate, gummy bears, popping candy and silicone moulds (I saw some cheap ones in ikea) - all that in a mixing bowl would make a good gift.

beepbeep · 28/10/2017 08:51

Bluenile - thanks for that, have had the hot-wires in my 'saved for later' for about a year as always a bit too expensive! Have got it for DS who's 9.

NoWordForFluffy · 28/10/2017 09:04

I have 2 x 20% off clothing offers with Sparks (I've got an extra one for my birthday) I wonder if they stack as DS needs new pyjamas?!

Prizepudding · 28/10/2017 09:25

I was in Morrisons yesterday and they had quite a few pink fingerlings so if anyone is looking for them, might be worth a look, they were £14 if I remember correctly.

Tattybogle89 · 28/10/2017 09:33

Can anyone help

My son has seen an advert that hasn’t been on again.. for some kind of toy that picks up Lego?

He says you drive this truck thing over regular sized Lego bricks and it picks them up and stores them? Can’t fond anything online like this but is adamant he seen it?

Anyone else spot this on tv ?

I’ve just had an email from the Bookpeople with codes

Thread 12 - the one where we are all going to need fingerlings
GinAndSonic · 28/10/2017 09:47

I've literally only just actually looked to see what fingerlings are and my kids definitely need one each!

RumTiTum · 28/10/2017 09:50

Ja9r I just got an email from paypal to say my Rosegal fingerling order had been refunded, no email from Rosegal as to why, but thought I'd let you know not to rely on them to deliver on orders.

ScarlettDarling · 28/10/2017 09:55

I've got a £5 voucher code for Lakeland off a £30 spend. It's single use so first person to PM me can have it.

bangbingbong · 28/10/2017 09:57

@Tattybogle89 I’ve seen one for mega blocks but not for lego
Will keep a lookout though
