Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.

@ivegotalovelybunchofcoconuts Many thanks for the Bargain Max tip and code. Just got two board/card games and saved loads 😀

Does anyone have any book suggestions for a 7 year old boy as stocking fillers?

Colour in tablecloth from Flamingo Papier (used to be Phoenix Trading). Could be fun to give at some point in the holidays and use for Christmas breakfast?

I can't see any offers, but it's free postage over £30 and they have some cute thank you notelets, picture advent calendars and craft kits, so you might find you can get to that.

They also have two Christmas peep shows (Father Christmas and the Nativity). I maybe wouldn't have called them that...

M&S have star shaped tortilla chips.

Thanks for the snail and the whale suggestion, perfect for a newborn nephew due in Dec as I felt bad not getting them something.

@lucysmam not rtwt but you asked about bop it. My 7 year old spent his own money on one from a charity shop, the kids know it from the childminder. Anyhow, we use it a fair amount, even me! Not sure how much full price but definitely worth having about. I like that it makes them focus hard and yet isn't a screen.
However, if you aren't good with annoying toys, it is not the game for you!

M and S Foodhall in Perth had chocolate sprouts, loads of the light up gin and were just restocking the musical biscuit tins so I snagged 3

@Reastie not long left on this one!

@Lazysundayafternoons the storey treehouse Books, diary of a wimpy kid, Tom gates books or Roald Dahl

There is a new thread up and ready

Thanks @Reastie 😊

I know some of my children's friends are mad for these.

@Trumpton thanks for the abe books recommendations I just ordered a couple more xmas books from them ( I just can't help myself when it comes to Christmas books) I used to use world of books but they don't seem particularly bargainous anymore considering they're second hand.
