@PaddingtonBearHardStare it was me. I sent a Facebook message on Friday evening and got a very quick reply telling me someone would be in touch on Monday but they haven't been yet.

Tired, I think it was £5.99

Also many thanks to @squirrelblanket. I had a kindle in my amazon basket at the higher price and have just pounced for my DS 7. Don't forget to Investigate whether your local library has a link to ebooks. Ours does - loads of kids things! Result.

Apparently the Next mid season sale is meant to start either this Friday or Saturday.

For any Star Wars fans. Just spotted this on amazon £2 for a large hard back book.

We've had a home bargains and a b&m open near us. A few PP have mentioned they have their Christmas aisles out... Are they any good for wrap and bows etc?

@stripes1 thanks for the link. Ds is Star Wars fan and this makes a good Xmas present!

Aww I'm glad my post helped a couple of people even though it wasn't a paperwhite!

The Next sale will be Sat, unless you have a VIP slot.

I've conveniently been sent a 20% off voucher for Matalan the day before the pyjamas go on sale!

In Sainsbury’s this morning I saw several smaller Lego sets and a couple of Playmobile sets reduced by around 25%, mostly between £8-£20 after reductions. There was definitely one Lego movie set and a couple of Lego friends one plus I think some star wars and a few general ones.

@CupoTeap yep, it was at £15 when I posted, (still had a camel alert set up from last year). It never went that low before, may be worth checking camel to see if it's likely to drop to £15 again

Thanks @MrsLem I'll try a FB message!

@BarkandCheese thanks I'll have a look in Sainsbury's for lego 👍

20% off of happyland toys at early learning centre.

@PaddingtonBearHardStare the courier just arrived at my door with the new Santa sack and the quality is perfect! Very happy [santa]

My 2 lands end jumpers have arrived. Lovely quality. I've also ordered the free shampoo bar as recommended by moneysavingexpert.com, just paid 3.95 postage. Cheap and environmentally friendly! Win win.

Any good bargainous suggestions for toys for a 3yo please? Budget about £10-£15. Thanks

@rarejuicegoose thanks for that, order placed! Got lots of the Woodwick petites on a buy 2 get 2 free and a gift set that qualifies for the discount code and only 5p delivery to RoI, hurrah .

I went to Sainsbury’s today and wanted to get some Christmas gift wrap to start the Father Christmas presents. They don’t have any in yet 😭😡. They have some Christmas cakes and mince pies but that seems to be it. Hurry up shops, get your Christmas stock in!

My lands end order came today and I love the stockings.

@MrsLem. Delighted to hear that. I’m waaay over invested in your sack

Does anyone know when/if mothercare sale gets reduced further please?

@Reastie I remember that last year Sainsburys didn't get their Christmas paper in til the start of November - unbelievable, but true!

My local Sainsbury's has good offers on Nip+Fab products for teens. Could be useful for a hamper for teenagers. Also some lovely looking Beauty Kitchen products - eco, no plastic etc. Bought my niece this cyo bath bomb jar for £9 which, bizarrely, came up on Amazon as £40 when I looked.

Jessica that’s shocking!!! I’m not waiting that long so will have to pop to someshops.

Change of topic but has anyone seen Halloween stuff in Poundland?

Home Bargains has loads of Christmas stuff in now. 🎅🏻🎄
