I have a code for free delivery for The Works that I won't use if anyone wants to use it. It's valid until midnight tonight, and it's minimum £10 spend.

The code is W197ER10, and I don't know if it's a one-time use or not, but hopefully someone can use it. :)

The Mog books are great, and also Twinkles Arthur and Puss by Judith Kerr.
She might enjoy the Fancy Nancy books too.

If anyone else has been looking at the Chipolo key tags after a pp recommended them - they have 20% off today with code HALLOWEEN. First time I've ever been grateful for the stalking adverts on MN as it just popped up.

Maybe someone could answer this question , is here anyway to see how much credit you have on your amazon account when you opt for £1 credit instead of fast delivery ?I’ve done this a few times but have no clue how to see my balance . Also is there a time limit on them . Thanks

FridgeCut · 31/10/2017 11:42

If you go into the amazon video page it should ask if you want to check your balance somewhere on there

FridgeCut · 31/10/2017 11:43

Amazon pantry credit isn't stackable according to this
If you are using your No Rush Kindle, video, music or appstore rewards, then you can accumulate your rewards and use them towards your next purchase. For all other No Rush rewards, you can redeem only one promotional reward per qualifying order.

So I never take the pantry ones, I cannot see the point! I buy kindle books if it is that one, that is well worth it to me as they build up nicely

It won't let me post the amazon link to the relevant help page.

Can anybody help please?
My DD is looking for one of those tops with sequins on that change picture when you brush the sequins one way or the other — has anybody seen anything like it? We have seen a notebook with this as it’s cover in Claire’s Accessories, but I haven’t seen it on any clothing.
If anybody had seen anything around, please let me know - she is 7. TIA!!

MrsCrimbo74 · 31/10/2017 12:10

Have just seen this LOL Surprise Fizz Factory on a FB page and thought it might be of interest, I imagine it'll probably get more popular to go along with the LOL Big Surprise balls. It's £23.99 at The Entertainer and Argos at the moment was £29.99 but it's limited to two per person

My 6YO loves the fairytale hairdresser stories. They are a bit of a twist on the standard fairytales. You can spot the characters from the different books in the background of each book. My DD loves that. The Book People has a set of them.

Sassylowe try George at Asda too. My DD also loves these!

margaritasbythesea · 31/10/2017 12:51

Ok. I have now oficially spent too much money on my kids. I am stopping for them.

Now I am still looking for Star Wars things for a man. He has done me a lot of favours this year teaching my son for free as we have moved to a Spain so I need something big. He is also very nice.

I am also on the look out for nice mugs, more along Spode lines than EB, some DVDs of arty films for my brother (if anyone knows a good site), something for a glamourous 50 something woman.

All ideas welcome.

The Baby Alive I linked to earlier has gone down another couple of quid, if anyone is wavering.

Character.com have 20% off today with the code HALLOWEEN20.

RumTiTum · 31/10/2017 12:54

Sassylowe, h&m do those colour change sequin tops, this one is a bunny that goes from awake silver to sleeping pink.

Anybody looking for Japanese sweets I ordered the surprise sweets bag from Blippo about a month ago. Free postage to UK but mine took a good month to arrive so don’t leave it too late to order. Really impressed with my order.
