Thought I’d do a ‘how to’ for a couple of things people often post about not being sure of

To do click links you do this put link in here then a space then the name or phrase you want to go with the link . Don’t put a space between the start of the link and the and then last word and the like I have or it won’t work but I had to to demonstrate.

To follow the thread without using up a post to mark place you can click on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first post.

Second message has a few links and info which I’ll slowly build up, let me k ow if there’s anything you’d like me to add to it Thanks

I second the m and s booze bargains. Got some cherry brandy for £6!

A huge thank you to the poster who flagged reduced spode Christmas crockery on one of the earlier threads. Mine arrived today and I am over the moon with it. X

Have any M&S booze bargain hunters opened the chocolate liquor one? Is it’s thick almost like a baileys or thin like the other ones?

I want to buy it as a gift but only if it’s thick as that feels tastier somehow!

@Methenyouplus4 if the ladybird in the maze turns out not to be the Little Live Pet set, could it possibly be this Learning Resources magnet set?

DD asked for it when she was about 5 as they had them at school, so if your DD is at nursery, it’s possible she may have played with it there. Took us ages to figure out what our DD was on about!

OhHolyFuck · 17/09/2018 16:00

Is the M&S booze in store only?

Spam88 · 17/09/2018 16:09

Alas, the chocolate one was sold out in my local store.

Thegirlhasnoname · 17/09/2018 16:35

If anybody is after The Beedle and the Bard book that is out later this year, if you preorder it direct from Bloomsbury you get a limited edition “free” tote bag with it. Could be a nice little addition to a gift?

Just had an email from Magpie to say it is the final week of their sale and offering an extra 20% off sale prices again with the code FINAL20. So if you need a bargainous record case to go with your bargainous Bush turntable, now's the timeWink

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 17/09/2018 17:12

The Magpie record cases are fantastic! I bought two for DB and am thrilled with them!

SockEatingMonster · 17/09/2018 17:19

Fortnite Monopoly is available for pre-order on Amazon at £21.99 for delivery early November. It has a pre-order price promise, plus can be cancelled if any better offers come up before it is released.

Smyths are planning on stocking it too, but you can’t pre-order it.

My Fortnite-mad, Monopoly-mad DS will be over the moon!

Hi all, I’m late to the party this year!
My first offering is that Sainsburys have the Guinness world records: gamer’s edition for £4.99 in store.
I stupidly left it on the stairs and my DD saw it when she got home from school so now it’ll be a present from us to DS and not from Santa! [santa]

Notlongnow1 · 17/09/2018 17:51

So earlier in this thread (or maybe in the last?!) someone just missed out on a Boden code and mentioned that they were a regular customer but never received one! Was that you?! Or do you remember who it was?

thewayoftheplatypus · 17/09/2018 18:16

@singingitoverandoverandover did you happen to notice how much the playmobil pirate ship was in Tesco? Might go see if I can find it tomorrow- DS has asked for that from santa!

Methenyouplus4 · 17/09/2018 18:48

Alder Hey pjs x6 purchased. Still a bit disappointed they aren't in more festive colours like the first year.

Thank you so much for ladybird options, DD in bed but will show her in the morning to see if one of those is correct-surely it must be! Can't even believe there are two 'ladybird in a maze' options.

woodwaj · 17/09/2018 19:23

The Bush record player has arrived if anyone wants pics I'll happily post some.

SleeptightDaisy · 17/09/2018 19:26

DD (3) keeps repeating she wants 'a ladybird in a maze'- any ideas? I'm assuming it is something from an advert?

Does he go to a school nursery? It could be a beebot? They are bees but you can get ladybird jackets for them.

SleeptightDaisy · 17/09/2018 19:33

Sorry for the mistakes in my post. It was meant to say- it said out of stock online but they had some in the local store

PinglePongle · 17/09/2018 19:37

Is it little live pets?

Singingitoverandoverandover · 17/09/2018 19:52

@thewayoftheplatypus I’m sorry, I didn’t have my phone on my to take a pic at the time. I want to say £20, but I could be plucking that from nowhere. Maybe calling the store is a good idea? Sorry that’s not much help

imsorryiasked · 17/09/2018 19:59

Lisa Angel sale

ismellsnow · 17/09/2018 20:12

Thanks for the Lisa Angel tip, imsorryiasked. Got gifts for my DS,DFriend and DF.

mummymilkfloat · 17/09/2018 20:13

@thewayoftheplatypus I got this playmobil pirate ship in Tesco the other day, is that the one you’re after? I can have a look again in my local one this week as they had quite a few. Let me know and I can get it to post!

I’ve been lurking but have got a few bits from this thread and I just love how nice and helpful everyone is!
