Yes, I do that too! Especially if it's near pay day!

Fisher price coffee cup £3.25 in Tesco. Looks a decent price, but I haven't seen the toy..?

Frugi drinks bottles are half price now (handy for back to school too and indestructible)

Loads of great stuff on the Superdrug sale (type 'sale' into search bar) for 49p but very hit and miss what's in stock near you as its store collection only

Restlessinthenorth · 15/07/2020 19:06

Gah the Superdrug sale was too good to be true! Not a single item of the 26 I put in my basket available within an hour and a half of our house!

Magicismagic · 15/07/2020 19:23

Also got excited about the Superdrug sale, not a thing available anywhere near me.

I haven't received my order yet so can't vouch for the website but The Reading Tree have some great books inc Julia Donaldson ones all at £2.50. BOOKS10 got 10% off too.

I was looking at the Oodie oversized blanket hoodies and they are £65 😳 - found one on ebay for £17.99 and free shipping. It arrived today and is really cosy. The brand is Sienna if anyone wants one. You don't get the pretty ribbon round it but it's easy to add one of your own! Who actually pays £65?!

Bluewavescrashing · 15/07/2020 21:52

Also - some good bits on the Works in the clearance section. I got a personalised Christmas book for £2.99, Trump annual (for politics mad DH) for £1.99 and nice hardback gardening book for £7.99 all reduced a lot.

SodOffCovid · 15/07/2020 22:25

Thanks for the great tips everyone.
Tiger tiger have had some good bits in the sales for stocking fillers. Like mini jigsaw tracks with wind up for engines for £1.50. Some small trucks and dumpers for £1.50 or large ones for £3. Morrisons also have a few bits in the sale if your lucky enough to get a shopping slot!
I'm after any pirate themed or dress up stuff for my will be 3yo son. I will also have an 11mo son by then so a christmas and bday to worry about 😬

Shitfuckoh · 15/07/2020 22:26

I got the Thomas & Friends, Trackmaster cave collapse set for £19.50 from Fenwick (on their website) for DS1 supposedly £64.99 originally - but I know Argos have it down to £30 if you can find it in stock, so £19.50 is a bargain!

I added a Orange Tree wooden (dinosaur) puzzle for DS3 to my order, which got me free shipping as over £25 and the free 'Lick-a-bubble' set for spending over £20 on toys.

EvilHerbivore · 16/07/2020 06:54

Not really a Christmas bargain but if anyone is due a baby 

EvilHerbivore · 16/07/2020 06:54

Thanks so much for the lego link - it was on my amazon wish list!

NoWordForFluffy · 16/07/2020 16:43

That's a really good price on the Lego rocket. I've been looking at it all week for DS. Glad I didn't buy it last night as I'd have paid more!

Givealittlebit · 16/07/2020 21:46

@SodOffCovid I found fb marketplace great for fancy dress for my sons birthday!

sorryiasked · 16/07/2020 22:41

There are some great book box sets on Lowplex eg Peppa Pig x 10 books & CDs and Sabrina Ghayour 3 book set of Persiana, Bazaar & Feasts.

whatwillicallmyself · 16/07/2020 23:35

I missed the leapfrog rocket it had gone back up in price but I kept it in my basket and it is reduced to £20 again, so thank you @Goldenphoenix. That's another thing I didn't know I needed Smile but my 5 year old will love it.

FireflyGirl · 17/07/2020 08:40

Amazon have dropped the price of the Playmobil space rocket to £15, and £1 bonus if you select slow delivery. Usually £50, previous lowest price was £28.99 according to CCC. I doubt it'll stay at this price for long.

MeanMrMustardSeed · 17/07/2020 08:45

Thank you! I’ve bought the playmobil rocket - and will decide later who to give it to!!

kulaexchange · 17/07/2020 08:47

Playmobil rocket on Amazon £15 reduced from £55!! Just ordered one!
