Anyone doing a wedding on a budget for Christmas, wedding rings are down to a tenner in Argos

HouseworkIsASin10 Amazon Fire tablet they’ll almost certainly be on offer in their Black Friday deals. You can set the age range for content, plus limit the amount of time they have access (it’s not controlled by mummy/daddy, which is much easier for my 4 year old nephews to take!). If you buy the ‘kids’ version, it comes with a 2 year ‘no questions aaked’ guarantee - they throw it out of the window or drop it in the bath, they replace it.

I’m not paid to recommend them, they’ve just worked (and are more economical) for us.

I picked up a kids version for Christmas for each of my dds on prime day, they were £60 each down from 100 and should be roughly the same price on black Friday. They also came with a years free subscription to some sort of kids games and movies type thing, which looks good! and a super tough case. I'm quite excited!

its really easy to load the kids accounts on the fire I'm useless and found it easy! So it's worth checking the deals on those them the price of cases against the kids bundle. Kids unlimited always seems to be on free trial so it's sometimes only the length of trial that differs. Black Friday is your friend but I got one using nectar vouchers at Argos when they price matched Amazon. So less real money

Westelm doesn’t look as nice as pottery barn, although it might be the website isn’t as glossy and the season isn’t special. No Christmas stuff yet.

Tiffin duly noted.

Thank you stubbleturnip for the portmeirion link. I got a set of William Morris willow coasters for less than £2 delivered! Perfect stocking filler for my mum!

Love the Menkind site Moonbaby, some great ideas there. I can’t find the vr camera for more than £50 on any other site so I think the rrp is a tad inflated! But a brilliant idea for my DH who is bloody hard to buy for so big thanks from me!

Some awesome ideas here! [santa]
