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.

Tildero - thank you so much for letting me know about Amazon Smile. DH has an Amazon account and we use it A LOT, so I have just texted him (he works nights) to set this up.

ItsNice and Sleeptight I've had that Galt marble run in my Amazon basket since last year when I missed the deal! Glad to hear Galt is a good set - CCC alert it is!

TheOwlandMe · 03/10/2018 22:17

Ooh which Galt marble run is it? That’s the main thing left for ds. Would those that have them say galt is the best make (for stability mainly and fun).

Also how do I add Amazon smile. I tried searching but couldn’t find it.

captainflash · 03/10/2018 22:28

woodwaj You genius! Thanks for the heads up on that. I have just pre-ordered the two Fortnite funkos DS wants at a tenner each with no postage. I can forget about stressing over finding those now and just wait for them to arrive...
Thanks!

Alanamackree · 03/10/2018 22:29

@IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts I can recommend the aldi (or was it Lidl? I’ll check! ) wooden marble run. But the Haba tracks are just magnificent though sadly not remotely bargainous. We have this musical one.

@ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual solar system marbles???

Can you all back away from that poor camel!! #operationsahara

Alanamackree · 03/10/2018 22:31

@ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual do you have a link to the solar system marbles I really want ds would love those

ReindeerPoop · 03/10/2018 22:31

Fortnite Funko???

woodwaj · 03/10/2018 22:34

Glad it helped captainflash! I hate paying postage!!

Reindeerpoop they are pre order for release early Nov.

captainflash · 03/10/2018 22:39

I thought I was being really cool to tell my son about them. He obvs already knew and turned round and told me the two he wanted.
Which are now pre-ordered and I’m feeling smug thanks to woodwaj Grin

gaggiagirl · 03/10/2018 22:41

Crying at #operationsahara 😂 I believe the camel is still unfit!

Alanamackree · 03/10/2018 22:43

I’ve obviously lost my marbles (see what I did there!) but I’m considering getting these toilet paper shooting guns for my lot. In the past santa has always brought them something that mammy disapproves of or an expensive branded item that mammy is too cheap to buy. It’s helped sustain the magic. They know about Santa but I think I’d like to throw something totally unexpected in the mix and they’ve never had guns so far, never mind a hideous, toilet paper shooting monstrosity that’s scandalously expensive. If anyone can either find it at a bargainous price or better still talk me firmly out of it, I’d be very grateful.

SleeptightDaisy · 03/10/2018 22:44

We have one well used Galt mega marble run 100 piece and it's lasted well both DD and DS like it as they can make different tracks ----(after this thread an identical brand new unopened up for sale).

Fannyfanakerpants · 03/10/2018 22:45

whereisthatpenguinfrom, I got caught out on that Birchbox scam last year. They sent me the previous months box and billed me for the current one so I got 2 a few days apart. I wouldn't recommend them at all.

DaisyChops · 03/10/2018 22:49

Hi, was in Costco today and saw the vtech toot toot amusement park on offer, I'm a bit small so couldn't see the price card fully but the price near the bottom was £29.99, not entirely sure if that was inc or excl vat, might be worth phoning first?

Iwannasnack · 03/10/2018 23:09

I bought Galt marble runs when they were reduced last year. Think they were £5. They’ve been good presents for parties.

Can I nominate abused camels for the next thread title?!

Tiggles · 03/10/2018 23:26

theowlandme I think you miss out the http part and then do smile.amazon.co.uk certainly have to type smile in near the beginning somewhere

NoHufflefucksGivenMugglefucker · 03/10/2018 23:27

The camels no longer have the hump!

They are responding just fine to me.. unless the rest of you are working them too hard..

My camel is back up and running

Gooseysgirl · 03/10/2018 23:41

Thanks to the PP who mentioned the Lego creator 3 in 1!camper van for half price in Tesco, went and picked one up this evening - it was on my DD's list so I'm delighted. Also got a PJ masks car launcher that my 5 yr old DS will love. For anyone in NE London there were plenty of the Lego camper vans at Lea Valley Tesco.

Gooseysgirl · 03/10/2018 23:44

Also big thanks to Argos for honouring the 3 for 2 on my reserved items that I reserved yesterday but didn't collect until tonight.

I just ordered the marble run for DD as she played with one recently at a friend's house and loved it, so that's her done now!

MarmaladeTeepee · 04/10/2018 06:25

Does anyone know what Smyths is like exchanging items after 28 days? I bought DD an LOL Surprise Pearl back in August thinking I was being all clever and organised, of course now she's realised it's rubbish and no longer wants one. I don't want a refund just an exchange for something else, what are my chances?

IveGotALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 04/10/2018 06:48

Thanks Palmer - I'm holding out for one of the 60 or 100 piece sets as 30 pieces won't go far between my two!
