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

[Reastiepeace]

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.

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

@TheGirlWhoLived, WHERE did you find Mia and Me outfits??? My DD would absolutely love one. (Though she does often ask how Mia doesn't get cold with so little on)

Does anyone have a flavourly code please?

imsorryiasked I'm glad I've taken your advice. They've given me a refund plus a £3 gift card since they can't send another one

Just went to order the Green and Blacks but it’s £14 now

Ah that's good, worth the hassle!

Flavourly have emailed me this:
Case of 24 Fourpure beers (cans) for £36 delivered. You need code FPLAUNCH36 at checkout I think.
I've not tried fourpure beer so no idea if it's any good.

PiggeryPorcombe they're £5.50 at Tesco still apparently

Thanks for all the ideas shared on these threads! I bought these reindeer earrings from Amazon, they haven’t arrived yet so can’t comment on quality but for 40p worth a punt!

Thanks for that Drumming but I'm after a case of specific gluten free ones. I've got a 10% off code but holding out for a better offer

totallyLosingIt thank you so much for that, it's sorted out my Grandad
If there's a whiskey one that would be great

Calendar club have got free delivery on everything. Some Calendars cheaper here than amazon!
Also very nice notebooks at good prices.

I'm so stuck on ideas for my little girl. I've got Christmas and her 3rd birthday to buy for.
Problem is, anything I'd have bought her, we've already got from older brother or hand me downs from cousins.
We've got a ton of dressup stuff, a play kitchen and equipment, a shop +till, whole collections of vehicles, knights, happyland, animals, dinosaurs, playfood, playmobil. We already have quite a few Orchard games and dobble.
We have lego, duplo, sticklebricks and wooden blocks. We have a whole orchestra of musical instruments.

We've got bin bags full of cuddly toys that she's not interested in.
She's got baby dolls, pram, clothes.
We've got tons of craft stuff and so many books they don't fit in the bookcase any more.
We have a wooden rainbow and semi circles, bilibos, mini bilibos.
She doesn't like tv so she's not into any characters like Peppa etc.
She has a bike, a scooter, a scuttlebug and a trampoline.
Doesn't need clothes as she's got a chest stuffed full between MIL gifts and hand me downs.

I am really struggling for ideas!
If any has any amazing ideas I'd be so grateful.

Right now her list for birthday and Christmas between us and all extended family consists of:
Kinetic sand
A jigsaw
Maybe some magnetic building tile things

I’ve just linked to this on anothe thread but thought I’d put it here too. Junior driving experience £19 via buy-a-gift. Age 10+ 135cm tall. Various locations. Great value although you do get the hard sell to upgrade on the day and pay £15 for a recording of the drive. But we didn’t and it was great anyway.

@Luna there’s one I heard of called masterofmalt.co.uk

Drumming I don't have girls but how about My Little Pony? Or Polly Pocket? They've just come back.

Marble run?
Pirate ship?
Playmobil stuff - either the girly branded stuff or just key bits like zoo, country house etc?
Construction set - we have the below

Thanks for the young driver piggery I have to check if dd is tall enough but looks like something she’d love.

Men’s aftershave - my absolute favourite is gaultier le male, just smells amazing on my dh! His faves are Chanel bleu, dior savage and tom Ford.

Has anyone used fragrance direct before? They’ve got a perfume my dd loves reduced and they also have a 5% code making it so much cheaper than anywhere else, I’m just wondering if it’s genuine? Thanks.

Drumming another vote for pollypocket, don’t take up loads of space and they are great for taking on long car journeys.

I've used fragrance direct before.

We've got my little ponies ( my vintage ones!) and she's not remotely interested.

I'm not sure she'd play with polly pocket either, she has some little girl dolls and she just broke them

She's mostly not interested in typical 'girly' toys.

@Drummingisfun how about tickets to a pantomime or a show?

Drumming what about making her up a baking box with sprinkles/icing pens/gel food colours?

You could do other themes - gardening? Science experiments?

Annual pass to a local attraction?

@Drummingisfun how about a marble run? I've never met a 3yo who didn't love it!

Jammie Fragrance Direct are fine, I've used them for years with no problems.

Another vote for a marble run.

Does anyone need a £10 off code for Boden or 20% off codes for M&S?
