@Arthien what are these M&S light up tins you mention?

I spotted them on a FB bargain page the other day. I think the shortbread ones might be slightly larger than the tea ones (at least, they looked like it in the photo I saw) but the same shape/colour.

Thank you everyone for the marker tips! Will have a shop around, very tempted by Winsor and Newton but she has a specific sketchbook she uses for everything, not high quality paper, so worried about bleeding etc.

ElvisPresleyHadABaby · 08/09/2021 10:26

Gifts for a nearly 50yo woman, no specific hobbies but likes spending time outside, nice toiletries and eclectic home decor. Anyone got any ideas?

SandwichDistraction · 08/09/2021 10:29

Thanks to the poster that suggested reusable shopping bags for gift bags. I am going to get some tote bags and fabric pens and let my 4yr old loose. Hopefully she will draw something recognisable and they will make a nice extra gift as well as a gift bag. It will also keep her occupied for a while!

@ElvisPresleyHadABaby All alcohol markers will bleed through to the other side of the paper and also bleed across the page unless its either very thick paper like a mixed media bristol board or a coated paper like a marker paper sketchbook. If she has a specific sketchbook then alcohol markers may not be the way to go, if that's the case I would suggest some good quality waterbased ones, I like the Staedtler Triplus Colour, and they also have fineliners which match colours which is fun for detail work and outlining. Amazon have them but they often pop up on offers randomly. www.amazon.co.uk/Triplus-323-1-0-Colour-Fibre/dp/B06XRGGNTV/ref=asc_df_B06XRGGNTV/?hvlocphy=1007460&linkCode=df0&hvptwo&psc=1&psc=1&hvnetw=g&hvadid=214544419128&hvpone&hvlocint&th=1&hvpos&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl&hvqmt&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&hvtargid=pla-423579404075&hvrand=7039391919463834787

Placemarking. I am torn between telling my Christmas-mad sister about this thread and not wanting to share the bargains (we have to buy a lot of the same people).

ItsAllBlahBlahBlah · 08/09/2021 10:33

@VeruccaSalty oh god don't do that. You will be exchanging Blokus, buns and cold towels for years

MissCherryCakeyBun · 08/09/2021 10:35

Present monitoring App??

I saw it I'm sure I did but I've looked through all 3 previous threads and can't find it Blush

Can anyone recommend one that's free or cheap that uses iOS

Thanks so much

Have a look at the Olive and Sage website, their £19 was really good.

Hearst Magazine off for Country Living Magazine £3 for 3 copies. You can select which issue to start - from Novembers (coming in early Oct) up to March.

No free gift and remember to cancel the DD!! but a cheap way to get the Christmassy issues?

Chocolateteabag · 08/09/2021 10:50

@Mumto3thatsme thanks I really appreciate the info....as will my family when I manage to buy them all gifts 🎁

teacake89 · 08/09/2021 10:57

@Chocolateteabag I'm not sure how to make the link work, sorry. If you type agora world into google it should come up though. I've added a couple of screenshots so you can be certain it's the correct website Smile

The code NEWGIRL will get you 15% off at Nobody's Child including sale items. I just saved £7.80 and got free delivery for 4 dresses - very happy.

Got the M&S light up shortbread and tea tins yesterday. Few left on the shelves. Think they are also doing a biscuit halloween version but couldn't find that. Also got the light up gin as well.
