@PinkDaydreams

Wanky candles down to £6.11 on eBay

Please tell us more about wanky candles 😳😂

@Notlongnow1 they’re defo not for the easily offended!! I learnt about them from this thread last year. Take a nosey, I’ve ordered one today so will report back on quality once it’s arrived

[quote nillygin]@Methenyouplus4 what about something from paperpod for your DS? They do great cardboard play dens - the kids can decorate them and if they loose interest they are cardboard and can be recycled! My girls have previously loved the house but they do a cool igloo and something that looks like a ufo. Even flat packed the package is quite large too![/quote]
We got the igloo as a gift for DD last year and it took up a whole room 😳 She loved it for a few weeks and then it became the luxury cat igloo 🙈 It's now packed away under the spare bed....

I did decide the igloo was too big for our house @Amazonmulu but my daughter had the house, which is a bit of a neater size, up for about two years and it was much loved. Although control freak that I am, I never let her draw on it. I’m seriously considering getting another this year for my younger daughter - and possibly lightening up and letting them decorate it

I genuinely thought it was a typo for Yankee then realised they were a real thing. Buy 2 get 1 free too!

Very impressed by the paperpod stuff, thank you. I can't decide which to go for but the forts and igloo look great.

hobbycraft also do the cardboard rocket house etc at a slightly cheaper price. here

Just a note to everyone loving the kuki leggings mine came with a massive hole in the crotch so worth checking them over before stashing them for Christmas. Yet to hear back from customer services as well!

Request if possible.
Has anyone seen any collagen face mask makers online?
My daughter has been asking for one.
Can see them on amazon/eBay but all seem to be international and I'm so impatient I can't wait until November!
Thanks in advance

Sorry a picture would have helped! One like below, where it fills the tray with a button.. (she's watched them online and liked the feature!)

@Merriwicks think I mentioned it - the entertainer have Skye's ultimate rescue helicopter for £19.99.

My Ds (3y9mo) loves his as does my 4yo goddaughter who had it for her birthday- both like that it is big enough to get a large number of paw patrol pups inside (and it comes with 2 pups)

I've just ordered some things from lost universe
Would probably be good for a teenager, they do marvel/gaming things etc.. ☺️

Beanies have a coffee advent calendar, not very bargainous but a nice gift for £20

A good camara for GCSE child
A monkey ridge toastie maker

If anyone can help I'd really really appreciate it. Thank you

Any bargain teenage or small men size dressing gowns to be had?
I got mum some bargain sheepskin slippers from NOTHS for £22. Supposed to be lovely. Lucky dip on colour so let's see but if real sheepskin that's a good deal

Looking at these on amazon and this book appears to be a good price as others on there are £8

@polkadotpjs don’t know how bargainous you are after for men’s dressing gown but there is a s/m one on the joules eBay shop £34.99 and there was an extra 20% off code POCKET20 when I ordered yesterday so £27.99 and free delivery

Dd2 wishes the peppa pig wooden house, is it worth the money?

Thanks for the beanies heads up @tabbycat985 I didn’t order the advent calendar but ordered 4 jars of flavoured coffee for £10 including delivery - will make a couple of nice stocking fillers for dp and ds.

Check out the Savile Row sale - nice dressing gowns for men in there.

To those that have ordered from hype, may I ask are the girls leggings true to size and are they see through?. If so can anyone recommend any girls leggings. I'll definitely be getting a few pairs of the kukubird ones!

Whoever recommended Cox and Cox has a lot to answer for my poor credit card...

@gaggiagirl if you just want plain leggings check out love leggings. I bought some recently and they are great they do kids ones too.

I’ve just obtained my DSis some
Superga trainers from white stuff for £16 with 20% off using a code on the referal thread
