There is currently a light breeze...!

Really trying to resist the blanket!

I'd go for it if I had other stuff I needed to bump up to free delivery, but I can't think of anything!

NoWordForFluffy · 03/06/2018 07:54

I've got Prime and I'm struggling to resist!

RJnomore1 · 03/06/2018 07:56

Oh feck it I've gone for the blanket.

At the worst it can bulk out one of the teenagers teeny expensive piles.

45p lion t shirt (men's), if anyone is interested. My DH loves lions so I've picked one up. Not sure what the quality will be like but reviews seem okay

I would have got the blanket but it’s only travel sized so no good for me

Thanks guys, have just been on the toys for a pound site and have just bought 15 quid's worth of stuff for my kids, mostly stocking fillers. I was really impressed.

On another note not sure if its just my shop or national but Pound World currently has 50% off lots of there stock, including toys, kitchen utensils, crafts and stickers. Have been able to pick up some massive bargains.

This 16 mini drawer really useful storage box is reduced to 8.49. I got one last year and filled the drawers with cheap crafty things from eBay us (look in craft then filter by free international delivery, if you do auctions and are patient you can get things like buttons and ribbons and embellishments for pennies delivered). Made a nice gift for a crafty person.

Hello, I figure it's time to start looking for Christmas bargains. Also my kids birthdays are September and October so that too.

We also want an Amazon fire stick as cheap as possible so we can make the most of the Disney life subscription we have.

It’s 105 sleeps until the 100 days till Xmas period is here!

torthecatlady · 03/06/2018 16:06

Back again for another year! Absolutely no idea what to buy anyone. Excellent start!

popcorneveryminute · 03/06/2018 16:18

Smiggle have an up to 50% sale online now, in stores from Friday according to the email I've just received

woodwaj · 03/06/2018 21:51

Smiggle sale really disappointing!!

NoWordForFluffy · 04/06/2018 06:51

For disappointing, read 💩💩

imsorryiasked · 04/06/2018 14:24

Tesco direct is closing next month and they have scooters and some ride on toys etc half price (inc electric)

popcorneveryminute · 04/06/2018 16:42

Sorry about the Smiggle let down! I didn't follow the link in the email, my DC aren't old enough to have been brainwashed into coveting Smiggle yet, thank god!

woodwaj · 04/06/2018 16:50

Sorry didn't mean to come across like that!! Maybe I got there late and everything had already gone!

EmGee · 04/06/2018 17:05

Rex of London (formerly Dot Com Giftshop) have a sale on. It's the usual stuff but might be good for stocking fillers, teacher's gifts etc

KimJohnUmmLovesPicnics · 04/06/2018 18:02

Ahh Smiggle, the utter money guzzler of my life Envy

I can't believe them. DNiece saw a pencil case the other day. £25!!!

And apparently that had 'money off'

I didn't buy it. But did buy scented rubbers and pencils for her

YuleABUnREASTIEable · 04/06/2018 18:31

Oh yes, smiggle is all the rage here and it’s so frustratingly over priced but dd likes it because it smells nice

newsparklythings · 04/06/2018 18:52

Blanket arrived today, only just managed to wrestle it back from my pre-schooler who loves all things fleecy. It's lovely will be perfect for camping evenings over the summer and I'm getting some more for other family members Smile

newsparklythings · 04/06/2018 19:22

Thank you for the heads up on Tesco Direct, due to vouchers we just bagged a skateboard and scooter for £9 (£18.50 vouchers). Even better than the Playmobil Fire Engine that's still in the cupboard

woodwaj · 04/06/2018 19:29

I think I'll buy some Poundland pencils and spray them with some impulse and resell them on for a fiver Grin

The smiggle stuff wasn't for me it was for all the other kids I have to buy for. I have one autistic 3 year old who asks for nothing at all except babybel cheese and ice cream!

woodwaj · 04/06/2018 19:30

Smiggle heard me moaning. I've just switched from phone to iPad where I was looking at smiggle yesterday and sale has been restocked! Only 55 items when I looked yesterday and now there are over 300.

popcorneveryminute · 04/06/2018 19:56

@woodwaj no offence taken, glad there's more on offer now Grin
