Thanks for the Disney outlet tip (sort of, I did spend £100!) My order arrived today and the playset pirate ship is amazing. DS will be so impressed and I am well chuffed to have got his main present (from us not sure what Santa is bringing him yet) for £35!!

I might have also got some photo frames, a mug, some ears for myself...

Thanks @newroundhere have wanted to try these for a while so this offer was very useful, also as I hadn’t ordered from them before I got an additional 10% off code as a new customer, also bought the fingerless gloves at the new customer offer of £19. Presents for me so I shall be very cosy come winter.

Morning all

I'm intrigued by the Fake Oodies and am contemplating getting some for the tellmewhen household.

Questions -

1 - is the One Size thing ok? This always worries me
2- can anyone recommend any good deals on ones which are at least (if not a bit longer) knee length?

Ta all Grin

This beauty box looks a bargain ... wonder if I could cancel immediately after dispatch?

Sorry if I've missed this post but does anyone know of an Argos code at all? Looking at a lovely Baby Watch for young teen DD

Thanks for the science set. Has anyone bought the blue hoodie or the farm/hen egg one? Just wondering if they are also kuddly?

My hen egg one is due to arrive today (the original kids one I ordered was missing from my order) so will let you know!

Wimpy Kid link no longer working unfortunately.

Afraid it's not technically a Christmas one but I'm looking for a jellycat toy, does anyone know where is best? I only need the one so looking like paying postage which makes it not quite as simple as just going for the lowest upfront price

FluffyFluffMonster · 10/08/2022 11:46

With turtle doves does anyone know the percentage of cashmere? I can't find it on the website.

For anyone wondering about 5poundstuff, the customer service seems pretty good. They missed an item from my order, emailed to complain late at night and had a refund in my account 9am the next morning. I would have preferred the item, and it's not much, but can't fault the response.

Seconded! My item was missing an item. It was out of stock, and they allowed me to either replace it or get a refund. Replacement utem turned up 48 hours later.

It just arrived. Doesn't look like it is- from what I can see on the label, it appears to be a company called Cotton On (the other designs I could see when I googled were the other designs they previously had as stock) and they are advertised as 'Snuggets' for AU$50 (reduced to $34.99) on their Australian site (they don't seem to do kids stuff on their UK site).

Definitely comparable quality to the adult kudd.ly ones I got, though. The 2-4 is a decent oversize as well- will definitely last a while for my almost 3 year old who is the height of a 4 year old but super skinny...

Our local M&S had jellycat toys in last weekend.

Jojo, Selfridges, Next, Waterstones, Amazon and Scribbler all stock Jellycat. Is it a particular toy?

Cotton on is the company that typo is hosted by, so legit. They're always good for a bargain too.

Fleurtations used to be good for Jellycat - www.fleurtations.uk.com/

Thank you! It's a penguin one but the idea of paying £30 for something 24cm tall goes against every fibre of my being 🤣

Someone put a £5 off code for John Lewis below and I think they stock them

Which Penguin is it? Temptation gifts have 20% off at the moment, they've got a couple of Jellycat penguins reduced.

Smyths sell them. And the entertainer, if you sign up for the birthday club with a September/October birthday you could get a 20% off code to use. They very rarely seem to go on offer otherwise 😊

I was in tk Max (Plymouth in case you're near) And they had a lot of the winter themed ones in their toy clearance area, might be other shops too and I think they had some others full price as well.

Cuwins · 10/08/2022 14:45

@nocutsnobuttsnococonuts
How do you add a birthday? I have just signed up with them and opted in to e-mails and their catalogue but can't see anywhere to add a birthday
