@CupoTeap

I just checked with fairly brand conscious DD. She says yes absolutely noone can tell the difference

I would buy the chilly ones if you could afford it

@TalkingOrmer I haven’t opened it, but the reviews I read on Amazon, we’re suggesting it was good for 6+. I have bought it for a very tall almost 5 yr old. The handle bars adjust in height and reviews mentioned it was equally good for 10+ year olds. It’s made from Aircraft grade aluminium so I’m hoping it’ll last for years.

I have chilly and s’well bottles and they are fantastic. I’d be interested if cheaper ones are as good.

@Reastie I can confirm that Morrison’s ones are fantastic! I’m not a brand conscious teen though and DS is 10 and not aware of the different brands anyway.

@Reastie sorry meant to add they’re also £5 to £6 and mine is a gorgeous rose gold.

Thanks DarkHumour

character.com have merchandise from different kids characters and football teams. their clearance section is great x

Wilko delivery is quite steep, so went to the shop to look at the bottles. They look fab!

I don't have a teen so can't comment on whether they're similar enough to chilly's but an adult would be happy.

Thanks all will take a look and see

Also ordered the Barbie Clinic, thank you to PP who posted about it!

Quite specific but does anyone know whether Bigjigs normally do any discounts in the run up to Christmas?

DS is getting a kitchen off his grandparents and I’d like to get some nice wooden food to go with it.

Oh no the smyths catalogue arrived today. My 4yo wants the lol house for Xmas. She's already getting the camper van next month for her birthday. I'm going to be overrun by shitty plastic dolls aren't I. Meh. To be fair she does play with them loads. If anyone sees an offer please let me know as it's pricey.

Wilkos quite often have decent wooden food, I had a sliceable pizza from there a few years ago. I've also had some bargains on amazon, worth keeping your eyes on there.

Also, any ideas for nearly 9yo girls? So far she's got some lego & a sparkly lamp. I mentioned Xmas to her the other day & she drew a blank on ideas! I'm thinking of a stackers jewellery box as she's quite into collecting nice bits of jewellery & last Black Friday they had them on offer.

@Sunshine196 my niece is 9 an so far has mentioned a pair of heelys and a pair of fluffy slippers

Oh yes she has outgrown her heeleys & she was pretty good on them. That's a good idea. Thanks.
