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

Great result hadenoughofbears . To be honest it was the best present of the year for us. DS3 loves his and we have to put limits on or he'd play it all the time! Mario Kart and Luigi's Mansion are also fabulous if anyone else fancies buying him a game.

@Keeponkeepigon thank you, they look great. I've just ordered one

Might be late with this update but Primark had some fab leopard print “oodies” in earlier today

@girlsyearapart

Heads up to anyone who bought pictionary air from Amazon - ours arrived today and it wasn’t in a box or an envelope just a delivery sticker on the outside of the Pictionary box … This comes in the same week as a 30cm folding ruler arriving in a gigantic box 🤔

Yep. I had the same. Kids saw it so Xmas surprise ruined. Considering the excess packaging they normally use I'm pretty pissed off. It doesn't take a genius to realise someone buying toys this time of year is probably buying them for Xmas...

Couple of bargains in TKMAxx. Hedge end store bit quite a lot of stock so may be elsewhere.

Various Baby Annabel around 40% off
Our Generation dolls £20 reduced from £34, and a cinema which was half price (£99)
Talking Tables murder mystery and escape room kits £10. These are £35 in John Lewis and well reviewed.

Had a look and two of the OG dolls and some of the baby Annabell are also on the TKMaxx website.

@thaegumathteth which squishmallows are you looking for maybe someone can help (Sorry if you already said)

Any ideas on where I can get a personalised storage jar?? I started making granola for my
stepmum during lockdown, and I’d love to give her a nice jar with “her name granola” written on it

@Carrie76 if you search "personalised kilner jar" there are lots of options including non-kilner storage.

@NaturalBlondeYeahRight I bought my son a North Face coat from eBay, it was new with tags and under half the price on North Face website. You may be lucky and find someone selling your item.

@Carrie76 I'd try Etsy

@DockOTheBay I don't even know! I think she'd like the astronaut one, a cat one or a parrot one probably most of all but she hasn't asked for a specific one, just one large one and a couple small. Dh doesn't want to get them at all cos she has enough soft toys but I feel like it's the only toy thing she's asked for and she does cuddle them all....

For personalised gifts: photobox have personalised photo mugs available for £2.99 instead of £9.99

www.photobox.co.uk/shop/personalised-mugs/simple-mug

Code: LUVMUG

@Carrie76 you could also buy a nice jar and order the labels to stick on yourself

@Minionbums

hot diamonds has stock in the outlet section at 50% off. Code 303030 works for 30% off, then code JEWELS stacks to give free delivery. Just bought two pairs of sparkle heart earrings for £15.75 each, were £45.

These are the ones I got but there are other earrings, a necklace, and other bits and pieces in the outlet. earrings

The diamond is minuscule but the jewellery is very sweet and comes in nice packaging with a gift bag and everything.

Be careful - I tried to checkout by clicking the ‘checkout with PayPal, button and it kept putting the price back up. I went through the whole checkout process to get the lower price. So keep your eye on it.

@Minionbums how tiny is tiny, could you give diameter measurement please. Thank you.

Also what has anhyone else ordered from Hotdiamonds, everything I decide I like is out of stock.

Learnt the lesson with Amazon. You have to scroll right down on the checkout page to make sure it doesn't say this...

Then you have to click on it and specifically request amazon packaging. Pain in the bum

@Maharajah20 those slippers look perfect. Thank you for the recommendation x

@LostMyRubySlippers thank you for the recommendation. Order placed for a gorgeous door mat! X

Aldi had the astronaut ones. Im that way on Thursday so can have a look see if they still have any left for you.
Claires sell lots of them not sure how the prices compare. Or do the entertainer sell them? So you could use a birthday code.
Husbands always say no to things, if it was up to my DH the girls would get a selection box and 1 toy hastily bought on Christmas eve for an extortionate price. 🤣

I'm looking for a Jellycat Mince Pie at a bargain price if anyone has any suggestions? Best so far is Campus Gifts who have 10% off all their Jellycat ranges at the moment, but it's still over £14.

Thanks @nocutsnobuttsnococonuts I'll look at entertainer, Claire's are quite expensive and I can never find a code

Yes dh is the same - it's frustrating!

Just wondering if anyone has a code or knows where to find a reduced Minecraft Switch game? My DC is looking for it for Xmas.

@Puffalicious

Attachment fail!

Can I ask re the sizing? I'm looking at it for a small 10 year old but I'd like to get two years out of it. I'm uncertain whether to buy size M or L?

Also, is the Sainsbury's toy sale online? I'm not anywhere near one, but one of my boys is dino and is coveting all the super colossal figures!

@nocutsnobuttsnococonuts Claire’s have a cat one in stock as do Very.
