The one for asda @Simply put?

Thanks so much @thaegumathteth I’ve just bought them now! Honestly, thank you so much to everyone for helping me! I only bought the 2 for £20.99 just now but dd will be over the moon

The one for asda @SimplyPut?

Sorry no new bargains from me but I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the poster for the Argos robes. I have been looking at the Jedi one for ages but couldn't justify the cost. I couldn't resist at £10.50 and DP is going to love it.
Also an ask please. Can anyone recommend a nice copy of 'The Night before Christmas' ? One that is not too child-like if that makes sense. Its for my mum to give to the DC with a view to it being passed down. Budget max £15-£20 but ideally cheaper. Thank you.

@Jammiebammie I love toysforapound. Some of it isn't great and actually cheaper in the range and places like that. If you're careful what you buy though you can get real bargains. I've ordered several of the same thing before and they've always sent different ones so you don't end up with all the same fnaf character for example

Thanks to this thread I only have 1 gift left to buy! I however have no idea what to buy. So please help me. It is for a couple that can afford to buy anything they want. They are also childless and early 30s. Its a max budget of £40. Thank you

If Asda @Asj0405 I can have a look. Thank you x

jammiebammie these two are good.

@FoddyWaddle a food hamper? That's my plan for hard to buy for PILs.

I've got a lot of LOL stocking fillers from the works - this week there was an extra 25% off with code CYBER, not sure if it's still on though.

Thanks all I'm done! I've overbought a bit so I'll be doing some returns of things that I bought before Black Friday and will now take back.

The door bell ringing and cards through the door have started so I will be wrapping on Friday then tree up and card writing on Sunday and then I'm done!

Thanks for all your help. I'll be watching this thread trying not to crack open the green and blacks and trying not to twitch.

@SimplyPut HP pjs yes it was these at asda not all blue but a lot of blue in them

It does look like they've sold out of large size since I posted earlier though. Every size was in stock when I posted so must be selling fast. Could try your local store

So glad you got them @Jammiebammie (and @Jammiebammie's DD!)

Naturalblonde- I've done photobooks in the past and never had an issue so it may be apple incompatibility?

@Asj0405 they would be perfect. Will try my local store tomorrow. Thank you.

I picked up the Vtech toot toot advent calendar in Tesco today for DS2, which I thought was a good price
What you swapped your ds2 for the calendar? Not sure that was a bargain!!

Iggi- you’ve just reminded me that my Dad’s not done that joke so far.

I normally get: “I got X for your mum this year...that’s a good deal isn’t it”.

Normally while the shop assistant fake smiles

Was that a fake smile Yahbasic?

@Iggi999 now you mention it, it wasn't that good a deal. I'm now one child down with a spare advent calendar on my hands

jammiebammie have you tried FB marketplace?

@moonbabyandthebeast Sainsbury’s had a book called The Night Bevore the Night Before Christmas’ which was nicely illustrated, similar long poem style but quite funny which might go nicely with the traditional book to extend the magic an extra day and it didn’t seem to be very expensive at all.

Can someone remind me why we dislike IWOOT?! 5 for £20 and I'm tempted!
