Thanks @PermanentPortakabin It seems fine to me. I think he was saying that it would no longer get updates or something, hence the dramatic dying comments. We do have an old first generation (unless that means something else) iPad we inherited that the dc can’t play Minecraft on, so I’m presuming he means something along those lines. I think. Maybe.

Received mine this morning, they really are nice ones. Just wish I had got myself one too

25% off everything including already discounted Black Friday offers at Buy a gift. Use voucher code VCWOW25

@BeaLola they’re called inserts if you wanted to buy preprinted lots of places sell them cardinserts.co.uk/ use double sided tape or one of those glue mice just of the edge nearest the fold on one side so that it opens with the card iyswim.

I was in Debenhams today. Their in store 20% off also applies to the personalised Nutella jars, so they were £3.20 each.
(Plus I bagged a faux fur jacket in pink animal print half price for DD - win!)

I have the Moomin book, DH bought it for me as a present to use as a diary - it's lovely, very good quality and the magnetic clasp is very satisfying. Moomin merchandise is usually quite £££ and hard to get hold of so I would really recommend it.

If anyone has a M&S code they are not using I would be very grateful!

I ordered the Moomin journals over a week ago now (one for me and one for a present) and still no sight of them. How long did everyone's take?

@StroppyWoman perfect thank you! I only asked the other day if the Nutella gets reduced so that’s another present for the stocking ticked off my list :)

Some small discounts on lottie dolls on Amazon. The fossil hunter is usually £22 but now £17. Its dino mad DDs favourite doll. Also Pandoras Box Lottie is £14ish.

@Barbararara I would say that your sales assistant meant that support for your old iPad will probably cease next year. If you can't update the software it may cause no problems at all to how your iPad works but as app producers update their software they may not function on the old system software as that software would not be supported. You should be fine buying Galaxy Tablets, check that Minecraft PE is available on the Android store. Minecraft Pocket Edition works on handheld devices and has lower hardware requirements.

Can anyone recommend a brand of coffee syrups? I'm not a big coffee fan myself but thought I'd get a set for SIL.

@Themazeoflife @BeauticianNotMagician81 they have this Van Gogh for £2.80 and if you use BOOKAHOLICS10 for 10% off then £2.55. I’ve ordered 2. If they are nice I might gift one and keep a moomin (along with a Boden, 4 anthropoligies and the other Van Gogh). I love notebooks.

@101Robin I ordered on the 18 Nov and they arrived today so not speedy but so worth it.

Saltrock have some half price hoodies, buy one get one free pyjamas and other good deals at the moment, including a green teddy hoodie I almost paid full price for a week ago. I’ve put my referral code on the referral thread.

I don't like them either @NeedMoreTea, but I've heard that Monin syrups are good and you can buy an assortment box from Amazon. I think about £10 (for small bottles)

@VividImagination Lanka Kade dinos! yesbebe.co.uk/lanka-kade/11557-lanka-kade-dinosaurs-bag-of-6/

@MrsF what about Chelsea Peers. They're lovely quality and SO soft.

@PinkDaydreams I also got the girls the Nutella Book Of Mug Cakes from The Book People for about £2 - so a perfect pairing!

Ignore the decleor link. It goes to my basket. You need to use code black for 30%

Can I ask has anyone bought or played the Harsbro Mash up game of Cluedo/ Guess Who combined? It’s on a Black Friday deal in Smyths but I can’t find any reviews anywhere. I think it was only launched last month.

@ VividImagination I saw some beautiful bits on the Joules Ebay page. I was lamenting to DH that I’d known about it when I pregnant with our youngest.

@NeedMoreTea I second Monin. You can also get them in Costa if you have any points saved up

Someone mentioned up thread happy land advent calendar 23.99 in entertainer. It's 14.99 in early learning centre

Webuilt & Barbed - thanks they sound perfect, I'll have a look at them.
