Thread 2 - the one with the return of the buns

@jumpingintosummer thanks for the inspiration for the thread title, I’m now singing ‘return of the buns’ to the tune of ‘return of the Mac’

Thought I’d do a ‘how to’ for a couple of things people often post about not being sure of

To do click links you do this put link in here then a space then the name or phrase you want to go with the link . Don’t put a space between the start of the link or the last word next to the like I have or it won’t work but I had to to demonstrate.

If you’re posting anything specifically for me please do @ me or I may not spot it. It’s helpful if when sharing bargain info you bold it to make it easy for people to differentiate between chat and bargain links.

To follow the thread without using up a post to mark place you can click on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first post.

No affiliate links please.

Referral thread here to use for if you’re posting your personal referral link to others.

Second message has a few links and info which I’ll slowly build up, let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to add to it Thanks

@PeanutButterFalcon I’ve used Santa’s Bag for a few years now and love it. It’s password protected and rolls your recipients forward each year.

Wtfdidwedo · 19/08/2021 19:18

I'm so glad Bluey has taken off this year in the UK! We used to watch the same three continuous clips on YouTube before it came to Disney+ and the toys last Christmas could only be shipped from Australia for about £50. Looking forward to actually fulfilling that part of the Christmas list this year!

Thegirlhasnoname · 19/08/2021 19:42

I reckon Bluey toys are going to be hard to come by this Christmas. DD desperately wants a Dad teddy so might have to buy Bluey and attack it with white paint 😅

PeanutButterFalcon · 19/08/2021 19:58

Thank you, I’ve downloaded all of them to see which one I prefer

SpamIAm · 19/08/2021 19:58

@PeanutButterFalcon I use Santa's Bag, have used for years! It's only for iOS I think, but Gift List is the usual recommendation for android.

@oneofthose my 4 yo had a TP explorer for her birthday. In no way bargainous but it's quite difficult to think of something as impressive as soft play!

Nothappyland · 19/08/2021 20:00

@sparkypupp thanks for mentioning that app! It’s fab. I’ve never used an app before but it’s right up my street!

FoolShapeHeart · 19/08/2021 20:00

@Thegirlhasnoname like this one?

spudsuliked · 19/08/2021 20:01

Reduced swing set at Aldi seems like a bargain https://www.aldi.co.uk/plum-double-swing-set-with-glider/p/083632510628801?utmsource=awin&utmmmedium=affiliate&utmcampaign=249371-http%3A%2F%2Fwww.digidip.net%2F&awc=1952331629399407_a383c260d98f9ab8a96b979f4f4d2566
There's a delivery charge but I'm sure I saw a code floating around that might be worth googling some like FREEXLDELIVERY..
will post again if I find it!

oneofthose · 19/08/2021 20:14

@SpamIAm that looks amazing thank you!

FireflyGirl · 19/08/2021 20:25

I think it was last year, so might not be any good any more, but someone was asking about Miraculous Ladybug. Lidl have these dresses in their special buy from next Thursday, £3.99 in age 2-10. They also have Spirit and Peppa Pig ones.

We got ours from AliExpress a few months ago. Really good quality.

@SpamIAm I bought the tp explorer and slide last summer and it's fab! They've brought a new version out of it this year which I'm very jealous of Grin

pleasekeeptotheright · 19/08/2021 21:16

Someone mentioned a qvc offer earlier. If you bank with Lloyds there's an everyday offer for 10% cashback

Clarabella72 · 19/08/2021 21:31

They have them in the entertainer stores and I’ve also seen them in Sainsbury’s

SpamIAm · 19/08/2021 21:36

@PinkDaydreams we've got the new version, although we haven't put the ball pit part on because I imagine it'll be far too liked by the neighbourhood cats... DD loves sitting up in her den though!

Pound Toy 20% off

Willow4987 · 20/08/2021 07:53

I know it’s not a bargain but look at this cool little wrapping paper cutter Shock

This would definitely help when coming to wrap all the bargains!

Cute Cave Club boy doll - I'd never heard of cave club before but my grand daughter is just getting into Barbie and at £2.99 I figured having a boy doll to go with Barbie was a bargain.

Woohoo signing in for another thread! I've name-changed over the years but these threads are always my faves, thanks @Reastie 😀

Any ideas for an 8 year old girl much appreciated! Birthday and Christmas and no ideas.

@LyraSilvertongueBelacqua my 10 & 7 year old love the schleich horse club figures. So much so I’ve had to give up the desk in the office for them all to be set up on!

LyraSilvertongueBelacqua · 20/08/2021 09:54

Ooh thank you, I'll check those out!
