Thread 6: Oh FFS Colin!

[RainbowPhilosophy]

Here you go @Reastie

@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

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.

@Kolo hopefully this link works

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

@gratedbeetroot, yes it's A4!

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

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)

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

Sorry to hijack the thread but what are H&b boxes? I've tried to search but can't find jt. Can anyone explain?

@Jokie

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

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

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

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.

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

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

Just had a CCC alert Price drop alert: LEGO 21160 Minecraft The Illager Raid Village Building Set with Ravager and Kai, Adventure Toys for Kids - £36.00 Cheapest it's ever been. Amazon.

@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 🤞

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.

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

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!

@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.

Matalan do initial stocking and sacks as well, not sure when they will be put though

[quote WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks]@torthecatlady .... looks good doesn't it 😍

As it was right at the end of the other thread .....Amazon, Joe & Sephs Sticky Toffee Sauce for £2.06 (usually £4.99))

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....
