Thread 27 - the one with a panicked thread title

[Reastie]

Title because the last one’s nearly used up and I haven’t got time to do my usual picking of a title, sorry.

If you’re posting anything specifically for me please do @ me or I may not spot it. It’s helpful if when sharing bargain info you bold it to make it easy for people to differentiate between chat and bargain links.

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

My tiger order eventually arrived last week... apparently took a long time to clear customs![/quote]
Oh that's good to hear it has arrived! Nearly everything I ordered is for popping into stockings so I just need before I have to buy elsewhere. I think Rainbow was stuck needing things sooner though

Damn it they're out of stock! Thank you- I'll look for them in-store 🙂[/quote]
Oh no they were definitely in stock when I looked - our hobbycraft seems to have piles of everything (literally in piles on the ground ) so hopefully yours will too!

@LastStarFighter re bulky gifts for teens, I feel like lots of people were getting snuggle pillows last year like these?

@risefromyourgrave see, I was a size 20 when I first bought 100 stars (I’m average bust though) and they fit me fine, with room to spare. Must be body shape/shoulders that makes a difference.

@heelforheelandtoefortoe does your dm have a karcher window vac?

what's that? a window vac? never heard of anything like that!

She does love her imitation roomba but took a while to convince her as she's likes to do things herself (whilst moaning she never stops lol) plus it takes her ages to learn tech - DF helps her but he's not the most patient of teachers!

DF doesn't want to spend more than maybe £30. I should have said.

It's like a sqeegy for cleaning windows that sucks the water off as you go. Personally prefer to do it with microfibre clothes.

@deeplybaffled I can't find it there! Did you post it a while ago? It's all papier, Freddie's flowers and joules at the moment

Please does anyone have a code for myhermes need to send some family parcels

@heelforheelandtoefortoe hmm not a karcher then as they’re on a deal for around £50. I absolutely don’t understand them (I rarely clean anything…) but clean people seem to like them for some reason.

Steam mop?

Aldi have subtly released the piklar triangles on their website after the scandal if anyone is still looking!

@heelforheelandtoefortoe or buyagift have a couple of afternoon tea delivery options like this with codes around for reductions

@oatmilkisntsobad - just looked and it took me ages to find it! It’s on referral thread 3 and on 7 November if that helps? There are others there too in case anyone thinks I’m being all me me me!

Sorted - she's just asked for another afternoon tea, so will sort that

Do like the window vac idea though!

Am really keen to get an aeropress! Any recommendations for vouchers / packages most appreciated x

I love my window vac and I’m the least houseproud person I know! It’s great for kitchen cupboards, mirrors, and the shower screen as well as windows. I might try it on tiles actually...

Hype have up to 50% off their coats for tonight only. Code JACKETOFF50

@LastStarFighter & @NaturalBlondeYeahRight thanks for your replies. Seems like it’s the luck of the draw then! I might order one and try it on myself to see if that gives me any clues as I’m on the large side myself.

@eastmidswarwicknightnanny

I recommend Dolce Gusto as you can get compatible pods from various places such as Aldi and B&M.

With Tassimo you have to use the tassimo branded ones, there aren't any alternatives

Also @eastmidswarwicknightnanny if you like hot chocolate there is always plenty of dolce gusto hot chocolate pods in B&M so not just coffee

@risefromyourgrave

Can I ask a question about 100 stars kimonos please? They say that the size is 8-18, but the person who I am thinking of one for is a busty size 20. Would one fit, (obviously without closing), without looking daft?!

I don't think they are very good quality- they arrive looking like crumpled rags as they post them in A4 envelopes and the material is poor- which is a shame as the patterns are great.

I’m not one for cleaning too much but I love my karcher window vac!
Great for condensation on windows too.
