Thread 10 - crushing grapes underfoot as we sprint towards Christmas

[UnaOfStormhold]

Looks like we need another thread so here goes. I'll stick the usual top of thread messages in a follow on post.

Hmm so the wine has to be stored in the fridge if not being drunk within 2 days? I can't really hide that from DH!

Ooh I thought I'd missed out on the smashed grapes offers but I've just ordered the malbec kit, fingers crossed it arrives! Thank you 😊

Can anyone recommend a bargainous kids beanbags? (For sitting on... not throwing in PE if those are still a thing)

Sorry this really made me laugh inappropriately! Maybe a thread title nominee @Reastie

Avocado looks like the oodie design and am surprised it’s also being sold on go groopie, more expensive but for anyone looking after it sells out on 5poundstuff

Can anyone recommend hit for a 7 year old who is really into music. Budget £50. I was thinking maybe an electronic drum pad but not sure how good these are. He plays the piano so not a keyboard or anything.

His older sister is getting a phone so something with a bit of a wow factor would be good.

In return I can highly recommend this book: www.amazon.co.uk/Day-Life-Poo-Gnu-You/dp/1780556462 for any kids who love facts. It is only £6 on Amazon but only £4 on The Works website but you have to pay for delivery.

Just got my ottercat (as they will forever be known) oodies, both in branded bags with tags.

Am I right to think if I open them in case of smell they’ll no longer fit in the grey bags? Decisions!

@BloodyMabel i just opened mine (in plastic wrap with grey bag separately and all ooodie labels) and it smells fine! Slight plastic smell but 10 seconds after being out the bag it's very faint, and still folded / tied with ribbon.

@ClosedAuraOpenMind Thank you! That's exactly the info I was after! I'm going to take a chance on them

Thanks @Myleakycauldron think I’ll leave them in the plastic and grey bags then.

If anyone is after the Bluey house, it's down to £20 on Amazon!, half price!

Will the Lego Hedwig be this year’s cinnamon buns? 😂

There’s a Reindeer potential Oodie on 5poundstuff now. Slightly regretting the avocado now..l

@closetparty I'm wondering the same thing as I've got to buy a Pokemon build a bear! Does anyone remember last years Build a Bear Black Friday offers?

@Talisin I need to know the size. I am thinking otter to dd but at the same time I am thinking reindeer to dh with wide shoulders. I am hopefully getting otter tomorrow so I can see how it is. If it's loose for me it's ok for dh.

"Hmm so the wine has to be stored in the fridge if not being drunk within 2 days? I can't really hide that from DH!"

Surely that's just the cheese?

The Lego cafe is half price for anyone who missed it!

Now I want a reindeer hoodie 🫣

Came on here to say if you sign up to Mattel before end of November you get £10 of points to spend then if you go to your account there’s a few easy tasks that boost it up to £15!

Its £5 postage but might be worth it if there’s something you want on there.

Thanks @AlabamaWorley22 for the Topcashback hint. I certainly appreciate knowing when they do the extra £2.

My cat otter arrived and has labels cut off with no bag or packaging. I’m sure it’s an Oodie though, and my 7 year old won’t be bothered about packaging on Christmas Day. Very proud of myself for resisting the avocado! Was very close to ordering (for no good reason).

Looks like the reindeer are more correctly moose Although I can only find a blue version, not cream, it does look like it’s an actual Oodie.

Moose ordered! I don't like avocados or cats or pink corgis. If a penguin one appears I'll be having it

Slightly off topic but I absolutely love the male modelling the oodies on 5pound stuff. He is definitely working the oversized, animated hoodie look. Hope he was paid handsomely with branded oodies/kuddlys 🤣

Thanks for the smashed grapes free box code-thats exh sorted from DD for £3.99!

The yellow bread will pop up next. They are fakes. After ordering I've found them all on onbuy for £19.99. I've had a few fake things from there. Never learn 🙄
