Brand Alley is great - just sometimes the delivery can take a while (they dongive an estimate when you order) but it is a safe site - I use it a lot (for clothes for me not presents Blush)

Duchessofealing · 30/08/2018 07:06

Do give an estimate of time when you order not dongive

@rosablue Meetkat Meals is Sunday to Thursday.

If anyone knows of a balance beam for less than £100 for gymnastics that would be great, or a sale on leotards, then dd’ birthday will be sorted and I can resume Christmas shopping...

margaritasbythesea · 30/08/2018 08:08

Someone did post an offer on gymnastics stuff on the last thread I think. Hang on...

Youvegotafriendinme · 30/08/2018 08:12

Just had an email from the book people extra 20% off

margaritasbythesea · 30/08/2018 08:23

Sorry teaorwine. Just had a look and it was a bank holiday deal.

anotherangel2 · 30/08/2018 08:35

teaorwine Ikea have one but it maybe too childish.

Jammiebammie · 30/08/2018 08:36

@teaorwine dd had a folding balance beam a few years ago and it was a fortune! They seem so much cheaper now, either amazon here or eBay have quite a few too.

I’ve got meerkat movies too but as there’s 5 of us it only gives us 1 free ticket, didn’t realise the meals were Sunday to Thursday so thank you for that.

MsMiaWallace · 30/08/2018 09:10

Anyone seen the Power Dough?
DS has asked for some. Just wondered if any good?

Boffered1 · 30/08/2018 09:13

It was me who posted the leotard sale at Pink leisurewear. The 20% off everything is finished now but they do still have a sale page.

MrsICantSayMyName · 30/08/2018 09:22

Does anyone know where to get a decent baby doll pram and doll from ? For 18 months old.

Isadora2007 · 30/08/2018 09:24

@teaorwine
A folding beam is a good bet rather than a solid one. And the air beams are fantastic- though a little over budget at around £150 for them.
Allaboutgymnastics (website) is a great company and sell nice leotards. Whatever you do do NOT buy from BK gymwear- no matter how good the offers look. She is a con artist and regularly fails to deliver orders.
Facebook selling pages like gym mums U.K. buy and sell also often have lovely leotards second hand.

WoahBodyforrrrm · 30/08/2018 09:33

Thank you @youvegotafriendinme that’s exactly the one I was looking for. Argos sold it last year (slightly cheaper but not much) then dropped the price to £49.99 in March and they sold like hot cakes. My son didn’t have a console at the time so it was of no interest to be. However some people bought lots of stock and are flogging them on eBay for £999.99 😂. I didn’t want to spend anywhere near £200 but it’s all he’s asked for. I’m going to keep my eye on wayfair and hope it drops in price.

Thank you for finding it, Wayfair didn’t come up in my search results!!! Flowers

Just got my Hotel Chocolat delivery.. on a day when I'm off work, sitting at home with a cup of tea looking at all these amazing chocs, this is dangerous!

anotherangel2 · 30/08/2018 09:55

whereisthatpenguinfrom what is the hotel chocolate offer please?

GingerAndTheBiscuits · 30/08/2018 10:04

@MrsICantSayMyName I got a mamas and papas one from Asda last year that has served us really well - was bought for a 3 and 7 year old but handle is adjustable

GingerAndTheBiscuits · 30/08/2018 10:05

This one, I’m sure it came down to £25

Rockhopper81 · 30/08/2018 10:06

I had an email from EduTopix today about their sale. You have to spend £35 to get free delivery unfortunately (it’s £3.95 if you spend less), but there are some nice sensory bits reduced.

I though this puzzle was quite lovely for £7.99 too.

You can also choose 1 of 4 books for free with any size order. The current options are, ‘Gilbert the Great’, ‘Cat’s Colours’, ‘Words and Your Heart’ or ‘One Year With Kipper’.

It might not be worth the postage for a lot of people, but if you’ve got little ones or children with SN, it might be worth a look.

Singingitoverandoverandover · 30/08/2018 10:20

boots3 for 2 and half price on toys, stacks, few bits left if your quick..

Hotchocolate86 · 30/08/2018 10:45

Thanks so much for the magformers tkmaxx tip lacypants. I looked on the website and got one of the car sets for £16.98 with postage which is still cheaper than anywhere else I’ve seen it. Also the magformers website has some bigger sets for half price.

MrsICantSayMyName · 30/08/2018 10:48

@GingerAndTheBiscuits will have a look thank you Grin
