Thanks for the shorts. Probably not for Christmas but hard to pass up anything for a quid

@Christmascaker thanks for the link - that's another hamper gift bought!

Well that link didn't work too well!

Thank you so much @caramelcandle DS is obsessed with pirates so have snapped up that calendar! Though annoyed at £3.99 postage...

I am legit done with DS. I have never been finished this early before. Christmas eve box, stocking, small and medium presents and now calendar! Just keeping an eye out for the main present which is pirate lego, though I know it rarely goes on sale. Currently £80 everywhere. Can I ask, does this camel camel camel website track everywhere or just prices on amazon?

Ooh, thanks @Someaddedsugar missed that one. My mums a big sanctuary fan so can do one for the birthday and one for Christmas!!!

@FilthyforFirth it's just Amazon however I think Amazon tend to price match most places from recent deals I've spotted on Playmobil items so definitely worth tracking.

The Works have 20% off most things with the code VCUK20 plus free del over £30.

I got some Harry Potter jigsaws and stationery for DC6 and a 10 book set of Meg and Mog for £10 for DC2.

A bit of a random one but does anyone have one of those pizza ovens that sits on your BBQ? I think my husband would love one but not sure if they're worth the money!

@MulticolourTriangles I have no experience of that but I did buy DH an Ooni pizza oven last Xmas. It was a bit of a punt but it's been fab. I bought ours from cockooland.com for £175 using a new customer deal.

Ooh I've ordered 4 sanctuary cleansers, thanks!

Had a bit of a brainwave today. I need to wrap 11 birthday presents for various family members (I have a huge family!) in the next 2 months. Instead of buying individual wrapping paper or gift bags I ordered a 10 metre roll of craft paper from eBay for £7 with free postage. I use brown parcel paper for Christmas with red and green ribbon. This roll is pale blue which will suit everyone and it's recyclable too. 💚

I had a look at them @Blankiefan and they look fab...just lacking the space for it really!

Another cheap teepee is one on Asda. It's a rainbow design too, which as my daughter was born in lockdown, all her stuff is going to be rainbow based. I got it for £30 and putting it by for her first birthday or xmas 2021. It's all cotton too

@MulticolourTriangles it's portable. We bring it out for pizza night then out it back in the garage afterwards. We've had waaaay too much pizza during lockdown!

Not sure if this site has already been shared but Wild + Wolf have a nice sale on with an extra 15% off if you join their mailing list and free delivery over £30. Some lovely gifts for kids such as pop out playsets reduced from £10 to £5. They have a couple of Orla Kiely bits half price that would make nice gifts Dandelion Vase for £25 or Stem plant pot for £20

@MulticolourTriangles My mum and Dad bought my husband one and he was beyond excited. I was skeptical but actually it’s had a fair bit of use and it cooks the pizza beautifully. Pizza dough and sauce are so easy to make and taste soooo good. You can only cook one fairly small pizza at a time though and I’d recommend getting a second paddle so you can have one cooking whilst you prepare the next one on the paddle. It’s impossible to pick up a fully made, raw pizza!

Thanks for the Sanctuary link @Christmascaker. 4 presents ordered!

That's good to know @JoHo123 do you know which brand your husband has? Thanks for the tip about the extra paddle too, I wouldn't have thought of that but it makes sense!

Can anyone think where I can get lounge pants suitable for a 13/14 year old boy. I need black, red or red and black check (to go with a top I've already bought) but every where I've searched brings up either lounge pants of different colours or jogging bottoms.

I've looked at MandM, eBay, Amazon, Debenhams, John Lewis and H&M. I think I might be looking a bit early but where else could I look?

The amazon summer sale has gone live.
Runs from 24th Aug to the 1st September.
It looks like prime customers are getting early access to some of the lightening deals.
