Just a reminder you can watch the thread by clicking on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first message. It’s much easier for everyone than so many place marking every time which can use up a fair chunk of each thread to scroll through

Here’s Barbarara’s instructions from last year on doing clicky links:

Open double square brackets
No space
Paste link
Space
Name of link
No space
Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

Thanks for the white stuff tip @IggyAce got some great Christmas socks and fun winter hats for the smalls. If you know anyone with a 20% referral code then it worked on sale items for me despite saying it was for full price items. So each pair of socks was only £1.60 And the hats were £4 each.

Thanks to the PP asking about storage I realised mine are scatterer about here there and everywhere! More problematic is I now cant find my stuff from the Works that I ordered months ago. Half of DS stocking and xmas eve box stuff so feeling frustrated I cant find it...

As to where to store, clearly I need a better system so have just had a brainwave. We have an empty nursery so all presents being stored in there! Baby not due to Nov and wont be using his room until May. So have chucked all presents so far in his wardrobe and under the cot!

Now, to find that lost bag....

Glad to hear my white stuff tip has helped out a couple of you. I would have ordered socks myself but I have already ordered socks from Seasalt and Dorothy Perkins.
I was impressed with vitamasques quick delivery and that’s my teen DD & DN sorted. I put my referral link on the referral post. £5 voucher each.

Joining in for this year. These threads have saved me so much over the years. Not my thing but MSE are plugging £270 of Ciate make up for £50, might be good for splitting up for teens stocking gifts etc... MSE link

For those in the know about Nintendo switches, are the new improved battery life ones different? I’m looking online and can’t see the difference

Just had an email from Lisa Angel saying my order placed on 2nd August has now been dispatched. Really looking forward to recieving it.

Little portable sewing machine - down to £9 if you click on the 40% code box

Would help if I added the picture

Also a good deal on galt science lab

Last one! If you use code VJ4PQ46J this weighted blanket goes to £22 at checkout

Extra 10% off sale in Cath Kidston until Monday with EXTRA10

@Riddikulusness I’d love it please

@BeingLonely no they are different. The old switches were version 1 which is no longer in production so all the switches available new would be the version 2 with the extended battery life

Ahh thank you @ADayAlwaysHasToEnd

I've ordered the weighted blanket! Thanks @EvilHerbivore

I think I need to step away from this thread for a while 😂

DM has requested a mint green kitchen utensil set with bamboo handles and a ceramic pot to hold them in! Very specific. I haven't been able to find much so if anyone has any good websites I might not have thought of, please do let me know!

@FilthyforFirth is this any good?

Thank you @EvilHerbivore I did see that one but I dont think the pot is ceramic which DM will moan about! I wonder if I should go for that one and just get a separate pot...

Plus the delivery is extortionate!

Living-nature.co.uk have 20% off until midnight on their soft toy dogs using code DOGDAY20

Lovely quality toys for any dog lovers

@WisestIsShe you're a genius thanks. I seem to be incapable of thinking anymore. Damn baby brain

[https://www.blacks.co.uk/sale-home Blacks]] have a good sale on. Clothes and outdoor stuff, plus baby back carriers etc

Is this any good @FilthyforFirth?

Thanks to the pp who mentioned the clay as a present idea for dd. I bought this one (pic attached as can’t link from my amazon app) and it’s just arrived and looks lovely, a really nice present.

I also got a little plastic board and rolling pin for her to use with them as well.

My sticker book also came and looks gorgeous.
