Today I ordered 4x stabilo pastel highlighters from Amazon for less than £1.50. Bargain!

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Highlighter-STABILO-ORIGINAL-Assorted-Colours/dp/B01LZMO2MP/ref=mpssa116?keywords=pastel+highlighters&qid=1569013923&s=gateway&sprefix=pastel&sr=8-6

@IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile another vote for modibodi. I tried Pretty Little Panta first and they were god awful. Someone I know tried cheeky wipes ones and were disappointed. Modibodi have been great quality and washed well. They do deals quite a lot, I think I got a few pairs during Black Friday.

Any recommendations for Japanese sweets/treat box kind of thing?

@CamdenTownie That is a bargain!! The highlighters are showing up at nearly £4 now - you did well! Shame, they’d have been a great stocking filler (for me!)

Volcanion I used this company last year. Can’t remember if I got a discount email- I usually do.

Another vote for Blippo here, I don't know if it still works but KAWAIILOVE used to give you a further 10% off, even on sale items.

A PP ages ago was looking for a non ceramic play tea set? www.tkmaxx.com/kids+toys/toys/halloween-fancy-dress/pretend-play/multicolour-picnic-box-tea-set-20x29cm/p/45099907

@IfyoushouldmeetaCrocodile no idea what they’re like but ASOS stock Thinx which are £30ish but if you wait there will be a 20% off code at some point

There's some lovely cashmere bits on Brandalley today that would make lovely gifts. Wrist warmers for £15, gloves £18. Some nice designs.

Cheap kids rucksacks at anorak today, £8.50 reduced from £28

Has anyone had both the blippo Japanese treat bag and an amazon one and can tell me whether Blippo is better?

I already have a list of nice things from blippo ill be getting now , basically DD stocking sorted but im just not sure about their treat box value for money compared to the Amazon ones. But i have a very finny feeling the treat box i got a few years ago was blippo and if it was it was fantastic!!! Indecision.

Can you search your emails, Volcanian? I've found previous orders from a few years ago when I've done that!

NoWordForFluffy

Avery good plan!! i couldnt find anything though.. either under Blippo or Japanese (actually there was a fair amount under Japanese but no sweets)

Wow I catch a rare early night & wake up to a plethora of period pant advice! Thanks you guys are amazing. Seems Modibidi & cheeky wipes have the most votes so I think I'll get her 1 of each to try (that works out about our budget) then she can get more of her favs. Thanks also for the offer of a referral code, think I'd need to spend £55 which I won't do but if you want to PM me one anyway I'll pass it on if she decides to order more.

If anyone finds any Our Generation doll or Ryan’s World stuff for a good price I’d be so grateful! It’s basically all DD wants for Christmas and her birthday which is 8 days before Christmas!

Character.com has Ryan's world stuff, as o had no idea what it was!

20% off the Morphe website with code 4UBABE (only for the next 4 days) - don’t think it includes collaborations but does include their new autumn colours eyeshadow one

Oh and my dd uses the cheeky wipes period pants and really rates them - she’s used various styles and I’ve just ordered another set next size up

@NaraDeer does she have a Switch? Smyths have an exclusive game coming out in November. Sometimes if you pre order you can save £5 although it is only £30 anyway which is relatively cheap for a Switch game!

Sorry if already posted, Asda have the 900 piece box of Lego reduced to £18.

It's apparently World Gratitude Day so £6.00 off a minimum spend of £14 at Kikki.k stationery with code THANKFUL10 - valid all weekend works on sale items as well as full price.
P&P is a hefty 6 quid but free over £40 so I guess still helpful for some.
White Stuff have 20% off everything site wide.
Sign up at Rituals and get £5 off a shampoo and conditioner with code HAIR2019. Valid until 10th November.
