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

Thank you @RainbowPhilosophy and @TitsInAbsentia. I'll have a look for those.

The B&M light up Gin liqueur is jolly nice, I'm told. And only £14.99 so cheaper than M&S.

@LalaDipsey

Am so sorry for not posting with an answer to any of your quests but hoping someone can help me. I will try and help back! My son wants a warm onesie he can wear to bed, ie without a hood. He is almost 10, but would need an age 12 onesie. Ideally he wants a fluffy one. I can find hoodless cotton ones in his size at JL but they're pricey and not exactly what he wants. Has anyone seen any of their travels? Many thanks

Not fluffy I'm afraid but possibly a cheaper option to the JL ones if you can't find any better. Sorry I'm no good at clicky links tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Grey-Dinosaur-%27Dino-Mite%27-All-In-One-%283-12-Years%29/139484231-MultiColoured?searchTerm=:newArrivals:type:All%20In%20One&searchProduct=

Jocktamsonsbairns someone has already redeemed it! Bit annoying that they didn't say on thread.

There was 30% off site wide recently, so I'm going to wait as the boots I fancy are £100. Thanks for your lovely offer anyway.

@LalaDipsey primark have fleece 2 piece pyjamas that are fluffy
He could just wear the top? They're only £9-£12 depending on size

@beadyboo I've got a referral code for 50% off your first Toucan Box, will post on the referral thread.

Ok I need help. OH has been getting into weights lately. (I'm concerned they will leave marks on our carpet lol) Is there a mat, or some such thing, I can get him to exercise on, put the weights on. I know there are yoga mats, do you think they'll do?

Looking for a clear see through water bottle for a DS14 - if it can be personalised even better - definitely doesn't want a metal one as has those

What about the clear plastic mats that people use to put their wheeled office chairs on? Like this

Found a 20% code for new Joules Customers. I've now got 20% off for someone else. I'll put it on the referral code.

Need to buy some Xbox games. Any Argos codes floating around? TIA

There are tiles like this that you can interlock to cover a space of floor - very protective but you wouldn't want to be bothered moving them often if that's an issue

DH uses a yoga mat, it's perfect as it can be rolled up easily when not in use but also used to do some stretches on

I am absolutely desperate for the Aldi koala Squishmallow if anyone comes across one (and I would of course pay postage!). It's the only thing my DD has consistently asked for (and she's nuts for koalas) but there's none at all in any of our local Aldi's and seems to be sold out at Claire's and Smyths 🤞🏻

How did I not know about protective mats for under an office chair? That would have saved my newly varnished wooden floor in lockdown 🙄😂

Thank -you @greyinganddecaying, @2319inprogress and @PinkDaydreams off to look at Amazon and the ideas you gave me

Does anyone know of a discount/free delivery code for Moshulu?
Thank you in advance 😃

Has anyone seen any large, colourful Christmas Cactus plants on their travels? I'm sure supermarkets/ chain garden centres/diy places probably have them but I'm miles away from a town and would like to head to somewhere specific. I'll try to attach image of the sort if thing I mean...Thanks

Thank you @Squ1ggle and @Namechangesagain that's really great of you. It definitely has to be a onesie, but the Sainsbury's one is definitely a cheaper option if no fluffy ones turn up - thank you

[quote Riverhouse]@WrappedInRed sorry if you already know and have tried this but you can get back closed tabs. On my computer you press control, shift, T.
Sometimes I just search my history but that takes forever.[/quote]
Thank you @riverhouse I managed to get one back 😂

Any suggestions?

For lovely fashionable relative, aged mid /late 50's.

single, lives with mum, doesn't drink, doesn't eat sweeties, doesn't like toiletries, house is fairly modern and clutter free.

Big into salvation army, is an officer and devotes all her time and energy to church.

past gifts have been a whole range of charity gifts, afternoon tea vouchers, afternoon tea hampers and garden gifts. I'm stumped!

@tabbycat985

Has anyone seen any make your own hamper kits or crates in real life? Last year Poundland & poundstretcher were full of them but I can't find anything in either this year!

Free month of unlimited data on VeryMe Vodafone rewards!! You need to have a pay monthly account but will be perfect for putting on a personal hotspot at relatives houses over Xmas

I saw some in Aldi this week if nobody has recommended anywhere else, I’m catching up on the thread!

@ArnoldJRimmer Costco have a 24" koala Squishmallow from tomorrow if you're a member or know someone who is. It's a warehouse thing though I think.

A beautiful book always goes down well with an equally beautiful bookmark. You get some beautiful photographic books if that might be more her thing. I was in Waterstones the other night browsing- could have bought half the shop! Beautiful calendars too.

Etsy do a fabulous book pouch. My niece bought me one recently with a book inside- amazing present.
