Greetings folks, it’s that time again!

Starting a fresh for 2021, so if anyone has any specific links they’d like or think would be handy to add to the list for the next thread please do let me know.

Hope you’ve all had a better year so far than last year and here’s hoping things will be at a point for a more celebratory Christmas with friends and family (and lots of bargains) this year.

Checking in from sunny Spain - what a palaver to get her but couldn’t get money back so had to go for it!
Anyway, no bargains yet but to the PP who said about big/small gifts. My 2 are adults now but I always like bulking out a bit for impact. Bean bags have been great, bed pillows (cuddle ones) fake oodies, foreign food hampers, craft stuff have all gone down well and are bulky.
My other comment was I ordered the straw summer hats from that Katie Loxton site for £6 each - summer gifts. They are huge and very well made. Look very expensive and went down a treat. Got one for myself as well.

What is the pound toy link? Thank you!

I read that there may be a toy shortage this year...I cannot remember why but I’m taking no chances!

@oatmilkisntsobad

Love this thread! Just bought 2 hot chocolate shakers to get me started. 20% off and free delivery! Feeling excited 😊
@oatmilkisntsobad Can you please tell me what these chocolate shakers are? Am intrigued!

www.poundtoy.com/ use the code bogof in checkout and free postage at £25. I ordered yesterday so cannot vouch for it yet, but I’m making advent calendars and looks to be good items.

oatmilkisntsobad · 05/08/2021 10:55

@daisyboo I got the idea from chocolateteabag up thread

I've just ordered 2 x Tonies for my twin girls from JoJo Mama Bebe - £59.60 each - £10 cheaper than anywhere else I've seen

Thanks @oatmilkisntsobad I'd missed a whole page of the thread this morning! Lots of lovely suggestions here. Have just ordered the shaker - looks ideal.

Please could I join you? I've bought one Lego gift already for ds and am thinking of starting my Christmas decoration making soon. Took ages last year and I said this year I'd start in July. Lots of rain due here so the perfect opportunity to get started.

Chocolateemergency · 05/08/2021 11:56

What are you all ordering from poundtoy? I never know what is an actual bargain on sites like this.

MrsRhysand · 05/08/2021 12:02

@Kollamoolitumarellipawkyrollo I read about the toy shortage they're predicting too! I think issues to do with import costs? Speaking of issues, are you trying to get the new Xbox too @Room4onemore ? This is what I'm after and it seems impossible. Hopefully they'll bring out more stock!

Arthien · 05/08/2021 12:10

Afternoon! Poking my head round the door after lurking on the prequel threads.

Need to get organised this year as I'm expecting a baby at the end of November and I don't want to be panic buying during 3am night feeds! Already bought the bargain candles as the previous scent went down really well with my mum and MIL last year.

I can't get the 20% hot choc shaker discount to show for me - can anyone who's bought already remember if it's a generic code?

MrsRhysand · 05/08/2021 12:18

@Arthien I believe it is WELCOME20 Smile

ABet08x · 05/08/2021 12:20

Checking in!! 🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻

Studio cards have got some stocking filler presents very cheap that can be personalised.

Also the range have got a fair bit of Christmas stuff on their website (decs etc)

oatmilkisntsobad · 05/08/2021 12:20

Does anyone have any recommendations for a weighted blanket? I'd like to buy one for my adult son who has difficulty sleeping

QOD · 05/08/2021 12:26

i love Xmas!

Gimmemoredonuts · 05/08/2021 12:33

Hello. Can I join in please.

Hobbycraft does a lot of offer that can go into stocking.

I thought this Sharpie 28 pack reduced to £10 from £20 is bargain!

Ripasso · 05/08/2021 12:34

@Chocolateemergency I have ordered blind bags Thomas tank engine and hot wheels, stickers, sticker books, hair accessories and aqua paint pads as they all seemed a good price.

Arthien · 05/08/2021 12:38

Thanks @MrsRhysand! Did it remove the shipping for you too or does the £40 minimum still apply?

dementedma · 05/08/2021 12:41

Shaker people will wonder why the spike in sales! Love these threads even though dcs are all adults

Room4onemore · 05/08/2021 12:45

Yes, my son wants the Xbox s so I’ll be putting the money away next week for when I can get one
