@NoWordForFluffy I am sorry to be a pain! Is the certificate A4? I’ve just gone for it but if it comes in time for the birthday then turnaround will be tight so I want to get a frame ready. And I will have to send everything on by post too; does it come in a pack with information that explains everything (like the website does)? Thank you

[Fetchthevet]

Thank you @RainbowPhilosophy

There was some talk about Oodies the other day. These ones at around £16 on Dunelm look good and well reviewed if looking for an alternative.

Was in Tkmaxx yesterday, picked up a Their Nibs showercap, £3.99, (£15 on Their Nibs website), also matching cosmetic bag at £7.99 (£20 on line) they also had set of cosmetic bag sets of 2 nicely packaged at £12.99 (£25 on line), various designs, I love the Blue Heron was rather pleased with them!

Oh and they also had matching eyemasks, not sure how much they were

[NoWordForFluffy]

@gratedbeetroot, yes it's A4!

[Kolo]

Thanks so much, @Wolfcub. Not had one before but I think this is my year 😉

[CharlieWeasley]

I went to Costco today and they have wrapping paper in. The giant rolls and the multipacks. The multipacks only have 3 rolls in this year, but they are reversible, so 6 different papers per pack. (Although they might have been like this last year too, I dont think I bought any then)

[BellaTheDarkOverlord]

Very happy as got my discount £25 Lego box today. Put it away for dd

[Jokie]

Holland and Barrett bargain beauty boxes. I believe they’re out of stock now though.

[sorryiasked]

I've just come across kreative kraft advent calendars. Photos in case link doesn't work - cars, dinosaurs, fidget toys, bath bombs, unicorns.

[clpsmum]

@Window1 I bought three the other day and they are great

[Lovemusic33]

I bought dd a fake oodie today from dunelm, I bought myself one last year and love it, they are a good length unlike some of the others.

[AnotherOne4]

@NigelSlatersXmasTaters there’s a lottery scratch card advent calendar? Where?!

[BellaTheDarkOverlord]

@sorryiasked thanks for advent link. Dd loves Bath bombs ill add it to my basket.

@RainbowPhilosophy

I went to Asda this morning to have my flu jabs but while I was there picked up some of the £25 lego as well as some very reduced toys (see pic). Tabletop football and air hockey for £3.75 each, scooters and balance bikes for £6.25 each and things to turn your shoes into heelies for £2.50.

Wow! I buy toys for a local charity who give to children in need (in this area) and this sort of thing is perfect! I hope they have these at our asda 🤞

[HungryHippo11]

Lots of scooters reduced in TKMaxx - this is our local (Hedge End) but might be worth checking elsewhere if its something you're looking for.
This one was £50 and the cheapest i can seen it elsewhere is £90.
They had other products by the same brand including 2 in 1 adventure trike and "flow" foldable scooters.
My daughter has a scooter in this brand and its really good.

[Trytowin20]

Can't find it but whoever mentioned the minion 'oodie' ripoff in Primark thank you. Husband found it in the city centre one!

He could only get small/ Medium so I might have to do some surgery but my daughter (4) is minion mad and tall so I have my fingers crossed. If it's massive I might hold it back til Christmas rather than her birthday this week

[queenofelves]

Thank you to @AConvivialHost on the last thread Went into Asda today and managed to find the wooden dolls house reduced to £35!

Also picked up some boxes of heroes & celebrations in Morrison's - 4 boxes for £5. And the Percy pig coins and Colin hot chocolate stirrers in M&S!

[Window1]

@Lovemusic33 and @clpsmum

Glad you can recommend, what designs did you go for? I like them all.

Probably a toss up between the rainbow style tie dye and the tiger.

Good for food hampers, movie night boxes (great on popcorn and ice cream)[/quote]

@WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks I don't know what I've just done but I've just had confirmation of four pots winging their way to me....
