Thread 9 - My son's would have loved that not so much the kinky sparklyness

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

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

imnot I've seen those in my asda, less than £10 each, but can't remember how much exactly.

@Wellfuckmeinbothears, is it like this one from Argos, which is a shade cheaper?

@ImNotAFlower is this what you’re looking?

Those look brilliant @thaegumathteth thanks! I like the lime instead of traditional evergreen too.

I bought those exact transformers from Tesco @ImNotAFlower, they were £11 is that more the pricerange?!

They don't do direct anymore, but have a check inshore

Tesco has switched Direct to eBay, I think. Loads on there from Tesco anyway.

Argos toys 3for 2 9th November

Has anyone seen any good deals on Palace Pets toys? DD has just requested them ... in particular Seashell, the pony. Would rather have figures than soft toys as she already has way too many teddies!

@Mwestie and @givealittlebit
I’m glad my cheap links helped you out. I always fill my stockings and do secret Santa’s via amazon over the years. There’s a lot of bargains to be had. I tend to buy only well reviewed stuff but for a few pence sometimes it’s worth a shot too!

@Wenchelda Disney palace pets? If so £2 each at toys for a pound!

Tittyboneghoul thank you! I wouldn't have thought of looking there. They don't seem to have Seashell (the one she wants most) at the moment but I assume they get different stock in from time to time so it's worth remembering and checking back 

ImNotAFlower I got those for my son last year from Smyths Toys. They seem to have the best range from the shops where I am.

Wenchelda I got DD a Palace Pets Busy Book last year, would she like those sorts of figures? Ours still get played with a year later. There were several ponies but I’m not expert enough to know if one is Seashell!!

Who was looking for rubber ducks? £1.80 for 10 from Sodial via Amazon, still time to order in time for Christmas too

Badgerface a busy book might be a good idea and a way to get a lot of figures in one go - I will look out for one.

DD optimistically requested a Seashell toy that walks / neighs / eats. She has this interactive Pipsie horsee* that she loves and thinks it's no problem for Santa to find (make?) her a different version that is Seashell from Palace Pets! 

Hi Guys we do a kris kindle in our family each adult buys 5 gifts for no more than €10 and they are numbered and we each pick out in turn, but I always end up having to get my husbands so I need to get 10 gifts for under a tenner each, any ideas ? Toiletries have been banned but useful household things or gadgety things etc are included, a mix of things that men and women would like, I just can't think this year,
Titty is there a way to search on Amazon for gifts of a certain price range, I would love to be able to pick them out on Amazon rather than trawling the shops, these presents always take me longer than the stuff for the kids. I would appreciate any ideas, thanks a million.

@No yes that’s it! Thank you, almost £10 cheaper!

@snowmanshoes, we put these cuties in DD's advent calendar last year and she adored them. They have different facial expressions as well as colours so look cute on a dressing table.

I saw the Playmobil Ghostbusters stuff in Tesco today with a decent chunk off the car.

Hmsffc I'm ordering stuff from toysandlearning.co.uk as my daughter wants Schleich wolves, amongst other things. They seem to have a good range. Scale farm also do Schleich

@BanoffeePieIsMyFave that one doesn't transform unfortunately thank you so much for looking though.

@LikeSilver I hadn't thought to ask someone to post from FB thank you!!

@whatwillicallmyself
I just tend to rake through. What sort of things are you looking for ? Do the gifts have to be unisex or are they gifted separately? Are they proper gifts or do silly gadgets count?!

whatwill m&s have a Disney quiz game for £5 which is good fun. Or top trumps. Snowglobe. Those solar powered characters people put in cars - they had them in poundland. Novelty cushion - Primark had Harry potter ones for around £5. Fleece blanket - Primark, asda and Matalan do them for around £6 nice character ones too. Hot water bottle or those ones you microwave. Christmas ty beanie boo - I got a lovely candy cane unicorn in the entertainer. Christmas decoration - build a bear had mini reindeer with the date on for £3.50. Photo booth stick props - can get Christmas ones Or i got Harry potter ones in primark. Selfie stick. Those coasters that have silly faces on. A pack of novelty post its and a pen ready to play the 'who am I?' Game.
