@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

Not sure if it's been mentioned but for those wanting Harry Potter bits there are LOADS in aldi special buys including hoodies for £6.99, wands, invisibility cloaks, bed sets...

I went on to buy my two year old a £4.99 helmet then spent £35 on the aquaplay mountain lake aquaplay Mountain Lake Grin

Missed the Urban Decay deal at boots! Hopefully something similar will come up.

Thanks for the Nuby sale, think I’ve found DDs main present

Big reductions on Nike at sports direct

@LionMummyRoar

Dinosaur fingerings for £6 at poundland. They had the raptor and t rex at my local, which are only £7.50 at the entertainer but used the savings on some colour change pens (perfect for stockings!).
Dinosaur fingering doesn't sound pleasant! 🤣🤣 Thank you for the typo, it's really cheered me up 🙂

Few bargains on only5pounds.com site, worth a look through x

For those eligible SportsDirect have a discount on Blue Light, think it's 10 or 15% so that might help further.

Dinosaur fingering 🙈

Oooh good timing for getting close to the end of this thread. Dinosaur fingering for the next thread title! 🤣

LionMummyRoar · 24/08/2021 20:59

I don't know if I will be able to give DS the blasted thing now, whenever I see it I'm going to imagine a poor desperate T-Rex that just can't reach Shock

ItsAllBlahBlahBlah · 24/08/2021 21:06

LMAO. Wine just came out my nose.

This thread is definitely my happy place 😍

Grrrpredictivetex · 24/08/2021 21:10

@boobybum

@ Grrrpredictivetex I may be having temporary brain failure but I can’t see that advent calendar on The Works website - are you able to provide a link?
Apologies @boobybum I seem to have got ahead of myself 🤦‍♀️

This FIDGET ADVENT CALENDAR is coming to The Works from the start of October, 2021…

FireflyGirl · 24/08/2021 21:11

Don't we usually make it a few more threads in before the smut starts?? Grin

@Reastie we're going to need a new thread soon - title suggestion (not by me, I am obviously above such things Wink) 'the one with the dinosaur fingerings'

Reastie · 24/08/2021 21:12

That’s so funny @FireflyGirl as I’ve just come on to check! Will sort out. Had a title ready but I like that one more!

My Blokus arrived. Baaa!!!! 🐑 I may end up keeping it as we are supposed to be going away for Christmas this year and it looks fun.

@Elpheba I meant to reply about Yoto’s and then got distracted. We bought one for our eldest DS (5) for his birthday last week. I was a bit nervous about it and whether he would like it. He absolutely loves it and has listened to it constantly including on a long journey back from PILs in Cornwall. I am surprised by how good it is - especially the features such as the Daily message and radio. I really recommend the Ladybird cards. My DS is obsessed. It has also helped us to manage bedtime with our twins (2). I think we will have to buy another player for the twins as they keep nabbing big brother’s.

We bought ours from Little Goat Gruff. I’m not sure if you have a better discount from elsewhere but I have popped my £5 off from Little Goat Gruff on the referral thread. They are a lovely independent shop based in St Ives. Smile
