Fuck sake. Bought babychips lightning mqueen and Cruz. You know, 65 sayings touch sensitive etc. Really really good bargain and good size. £35 down to £11 for lightning mcqueen. Cruz was £7. He will love it.

Oh yeah. Touch sensitive

THEY GO OFF IF YOU EVEN WALK NEXT TO THE BOX. ITS 105 DAYS TILL CHRISTMAS

sideorderofchips · 12/09/2019 22:20

How the hell am I going to hide them. It sounds like they will come and stab us in the night

Theimpossiblegirl · 12/09/2019 22:23

Thanks so much for the velcro toys. The robot has gone down to £6.

tabbycat985 · 12/09/2019 22:29

@sideorderofchips OMG😂 that's hilarious & horrendous! Into the attic? In a suitcase?

SleeptightDaisy · 12/09/2019 22:31

Has anyone seen any of the laserX micro sets for sale cheaper than £32 for 2 guns.

@Tiredsahm84

I ordered the barbie clinic earlier for dd. She'll be 4 next week and asked for it for her birthday. Was made up when it appeared in the asda sale Smile

CupoTeap · 12/09/2019 22:33

Thanks for the Harry Potter origami, also spotted a how to draw Harry Potter themed book for 5.99

NickMyLipple · 12/09/2019 22:39

For velcro blocks, use code VEL25 and get money 25% off!

xSharonNeedlesx · 12/09/2019 22:41

Is 6 too old for that Barbie clinic do you think? Dd keeps asking for a barbie very now and again and she likes pretending to bandage people up.

MulberryPeony · 12/09/2019 22:42

I haven’t had a voucher either in the mail or email from matalan. Wonder just how many people have opted out without realising..? Last offer I took advantage of was back at Easter time!

Dr botanicals have thrown multiple offers at me this week after my initial order of the free mask. I have treated myself oops. Cheaper than buying the Spode set that I’m still resisting!

margaritasbythesea · 12/09/2019 22:54

I have just realised that the WH Smith code only works on stationery, office and art

sideorderofchips · 12/09/2019 22:54

@tabbycat985 it’s in the box between wardrobes in my room covered in a duvet. It’s wedged

Seriously thank fuck I don’t pick the kids up from after school. Everytime I went over a pot hole lightning mqueen was talking to me telling me to slow down...

Rosie2000 · 12/09/2019 23:42

sharon I have bought the Barbie set for my 8 year old so I’d say at 6 your dd is the perfect age

WhereTheresAHill · 13/09/2019 03:24

princessbear80 after you’ve received the first copy, and you just cancel the dd in your online banking you don’t need to call or email etc

margaritasbythesea · 13/09/2019 06:47

My Tokyo laundry order arrived but DH opened it. Bah. He seemed pleased with it though

lifelongfrugaleer · 13/09/2019 06:55

I take that last post back. The gillet is going back as there are snapping and fraying threads. Will obv give them a chance to sort it

princessbear80 · 13/09/2019 07:04

Thanks wheretheresahill

Gustavo1 · 13/09/2019 07:13

@sideorderofchips we have the lightening McQueen. I once sneezed as I walked past the playroom. He shouted “woah” Grin and gave me the fright of my life as I was alone on the house!

xTinkerhellx · 13/09/2019 07:19

@peasando Thanks so much for the Boots heads up. Got £51.50 worth of stuff for £20.

As a side note on Boots 3 for 2, if a product was a higher price but now a lower price, it still counts as the higher price for the 3 for 2.

I had two products at £14, one at £7.50 down from £15, but it made one of the £14 products free as the cheaper one counted as £15 if that makes sense?

WaitWhatOh · 13/09/2019 07:36

Photobox email code arrived this morning - SAVE40 gets you 40% of an over £20 spend. Just ordered a large canvas plus the £6 something postage and got it for £27 including postage. Hurrah!
Only slight downside was it’s for myself 😁😁 but still!

chaosisaladder · 13/09/2019 07:45
