Crisis averted?!

@Luxplus I find kinetic sand hoovers up really well. Primark do a really good bucket that has sandcastle moulds in. I think it was about £3 and has been played with for hours.

Looking for an M&S code if anyone has one going unused? Could you PM please?

I’ve just started a Hype lucky dip swap thread for anyone who’d like to join.

Hello all, great thread. We got the Tesco wooden train set for £7.50 so thank you to the pp that linked that.

Does anyone know if the notonthehighstreet 15% off is finished? I tried to order today and it isn’t working (the HAPPY15 code)

I may have some M&S codes later if anyone needs, I think it’s on till Monday

If you search magic sand on eBay you tend to get more for your money than the branded kinetic sand. They do kg bags for £5 or so.

@Happychappy33 not sure on the dates on the code but I saw one pp post it saying there was a £50 min spend so maybe that's it?

I was spending over £50 (darn cute baby gifts that I ‘need’) but it won’t work ☹️

The milk frother is also at John Lewis for £19. I’ve had to pay £2 for click and collect but it’s in stock. Amazon says delivery is 1-2 months. Ignoring the fact I didn’t need one until I came on this thread

Two more M&S codes:
3SYX-F8SR-DFZR-YG9D
3SRR-5WBR-ZK8G-YGKG

IWOOT code needed if anyone has one, I missed the last offer.

@SlayingDragons I got DSs beanbags from rucomfy and they're big and good quality for the price

Thanks for the suggestions re kinetic sand I accept its probably messy but we only have wooden floors so I think it will be fine. Boths dds love creative craft stuff so think we will get her a start up pack and some small bags of coloured sand

Thanks again

Thanks @imsorryiasked I was looking at this one earlier and thought it looked good

@Luxplus Just be careful when cleaning the kinetic sand off wood - better to hoover than to sweep, as we found it would scratch our wood table when trying to brush it up - use a placemat or tablecloth like you would with paints! It's quite fun stuff, and doesn't dry out like play doh 👍

@Yeknom the code SANTA should get you 20% off at Joules. However they are releasing new Black Friday offers every few days so you may get a better discount if you can wait. Not sure how long the Santa code is valid for though.

40% off at Typo sitewide

With the kinetic sand I always put a plastic table cloth on the floor and then you can just pick the cloth up and pour it back into the container when they're done.

m and co (clothes shop) has 25 % off, ending tomorrow, and free worldwide delivery.

Good idea regarding plastic cloth for floor and table. Will get 2 for this. The one we use for paint is not that useful Anymore

Thank you @CatLadyInTraining for the M&S code

A big tray is good for sand or play doh, less likely to end up on the floor.

Thank you for the info on bed socks!

Thank you to whoever posted about the BT Black Friday sale. Got some AirPods for £129 - reduced by £30. Means my DS will get something extra in his stocking so win/win.

So I posted my M&S codes, then I needed one so a poster kindly gave it to me, and now I have more to post!

Long time lurker here, want to say thanks for the thread.

For those asking abut good games, Skyjo is great and is on an Amazon deal for £7.95 but nearly all claimed.
